The review must take place within 30 months from the date that those regulations come in to force. They also require the Secretary of State to make and publish a report after the review. The report should contain the conclusions of the review and a statement as to what the Secretary of State proposes to do in view of those conclusions. The Secretary of State must lay the report before Parliament.
