Subsection (2) enables the definition of premises in subsection (1), which currently includes a reference to regulation 3 of the Offshore Installations and Pipeline Works (Management and Administration) Regulations 1995, to be amended by order so as to substitute reference to another enactment for the current reference to the 1995 Regulations, should those Regulations, for example, be amended or revoked. Subsections (3) and (4) provide that Part 1 has effect in relation to the territorial sea which is adjacent to England and Wales as it has effect in relation to England and Wales.
