  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations make transitional provision in connection with the coming into force of the offence of illegal working in section 34 of the Immigration Act 2016. Section 34 of the Immigration Act 2016 inserts the offence of illegal working into the Immigration Act 1971 as section 24B.\nThe concepts of temporary admission and release from detention are being replaced by the concept of immigration bail by section 61 of the Immigration Act 2016, which is yet to be commenced. In the interim period, regulation 2 ensures that those persons on temporary admission or release from detention with permission to work do not commit the offence of illegal working, provided that they comply with any restrictions as to their employment.",
