Part 4: Independent Advice on and Monitoring of UK Internal Market Reporting, advisory and monitoring functions Section 35: Provision of report on request after regulatory provision is passed or made
The preceding section sets out the provision for the CMA to advise on a proposed regulatory provision prior to it taking effect. This section details the CMA’s reporting procedure on regulatory provisions which have already been passed or made in law.
	Under subsections (1) to (3), the regulatory provision and the part(s) of the UK to which it applies to must be specified in the request made by the relevant national authority. Any UK Government or devolved Minister, either solely or jointly, can make a request to the CMA about a regulatory provision once it has been passed or made. The requesting administration must consider whether any other person or body is able to provide an independent report in the first instance before the request to the CMA is made.
	Subsection (5) sets out that if the CMA declines a request to provide a report it must set out its reasons for doing so and publish the notice. Subsection (6) states that joint requests must be provided to all administrations who made the request simultaneously and the CMA must publish the report soon after.
	Subsection (7) defines "relevant part of the UK" for the purpose of this section.
