Regulations subject to the affirmative procedure are laid before the Parliament in draft form and require the approval of the Parliament in order to come into force. Regulations subject to negative procedure are laid before the Parliament after they are made and come into force on the day specified in the regulations unless annulled by the Parliament within 40 days of being laid.
