  "text": "(This note is not part of the Order)\nThese Rules come into force on 1st October 2005 and they amend the Employment Appeal Tribunal Rules 1993 (SI 1993/2854). These Rules make the following amendments:\nRule 2 implements section 36 of the Employment Relations Act 2004 (c. 24) (“the 2004 Act”), which, by amending section 10(6) of the Employment Tribunals Act 1996 (c. 17) (“the 1996 Act”), provides that certain powers available to employment tribunals under employment tribunal procedure regulations for use in national security proceedings can be used in particular proceedings, whether or not they are Crown employment proceedings, if the tribunal considers it expedient in the interests of national security. Section 30(2A) of the 1996 Act provides that appeal tribunal rules may make provision of a kind which may be made by employment tribunal procedure regulations under section 10(6) (and other sub-sections) of the Act.\nRule 3(1) replaces Form 1 with an amended version.\nRule 3(2) makes minor amendments to Form 3.\nThe full Regulatory Impact Assessment (“RIA”) for the 2004 Act indicated that any impact on business arising from section 36 (the national security amendment) would be likely to be negligible. In view of this, and because none of the other amendments made by these Rules is substantive, and will not therefore impact on business, charities, voluntary bodies or the public sector, a full RIA in respect of these Rules has not been prepared.",
