# The Drivers’ Hours and Tachographs (Amendment) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2019, Introduction: Introductory text


Road Traffic And Vehicles
Made 8th February 2019
Coming into operation 11th March 2019
The Department for Infrastructure makes the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by section 2(2) of, and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to, the European Communities Act 1972.
The Department is designated for the purposes of section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 in relation to the regulation of the type, description, construction or equipment of vehicles, the regulation and supervision of working conditions of persons engaged in road transport and measures relating to the organisation of working time.
These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 and it appears to the Department that it is expedient for the reference to Regulation (EU) No 165/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council on tachographs in road transport to be construed as a reference to that instrument as amended from time to time.
