National Underground Asset Register
This Act sets out a new legal framework which will put the National Underground Asset Register ("NUAR") on a statutory footing by imposing a new duty on the Secretary of State to keep a register, i.e., NUAR, and make the information in NUAR available to other persons. The Act achieves this by building upon and modernising existing provisions made in the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991 ("NRSWA 1991") for England and Wales, and in the Street Works (Northern Ireland) Order 1995 ("SWNIO 1995").
