This Order brings section 3 of the Employment Act (Northern Ireland) 2010 (the “2010 Act”) into operation.

Section 3 of the 2010 Act amends Article 91A of the Industrial Relations (Northern Ireland) Order 1992 to replace current arrangements for Industrial Court appointments with equivalent subordinate legislation provisions which will provide greater flexibility in making appointments.

The Order also contains a transitional provision which provides for the amendments made by section 3 of the 2010 Act to apply only to appointments to the Industrial Court made after the operational date of this Order.
