Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1982 (“the 1982 Regulations”).

Regulation 2 amends regulation 3(2) of the 1982 Regulations to remove the requirement for the Health and Safety Executive for Northern Ireland to approve the training and qualification of appointed first-aid personnel.

A regulatory impact assessment has not been completed in respect of these Regulations as the costs and benefits associated with the proposals have been assessed as negligible.
