# The Human Fertilisation and Embryology (Parental Orders) Regulations 2010, Regulation 7: Family Proceedings Rules: England and Wales


Until section 75 of the Courts Act 2003 (Family Procedure Rules) comes into force in relation to parental orders, section 141 of the 2002 Act as applied by regulation 2 and Schedule 1 is to have effect as if—
(a) in subsection (1), the reference to Family Procedure Rules were a reference to rules of court made under section 40 of the Matrimonial and Family Proceedings Act 1984; and
(b) that subsection did not apply in relation to proceedings before Magistrates’ Courts, but the powers to make rules conferred by section 144 of the Magistrates’ Courts Act 1980 included powers to make provision in respect of any of the matters mentioned in that subsection.
