Part 2: Regulators Secondary Legislation: Duty to Review
The Small Business Enterprise and Employment Act 2015 (SBEE Act) requires that secondary legislation which impacts on business must include provision for a statutory review, undertaking to carry out a review of the legislation and report on it within 5 years of the legislation coming into force. This provision amends section 30 in the SBEE Act. The aim is to ensure that Departments adopt a proportionate approach when deciding how many other EU member states’ implementation to consider when reviewing EU or internationally derived legislation.
