# The Smoke Control Areas (Authorised Fuels) (Scotland) (No. 2) Regulations 2008, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations, which extend to Scotland only, declare the fuels which are authorised fuels for the purposes of Part III of the Clean Air Act 1993. The authorised fuels are described in regulation 2 and the Schedule.
The Regulations revoke (regulation 3(1)) and re-enact the Smoke Control Areas (Authorised Fuels) (Scotland) Regulations 2008 with the addition of a further authorised fuel, Therma briquettes (paragraph 43 of the Schedule).
A savings provision ensures that authorised fuels manufactured before 1st October 2008 may still be used in a smoke control area (regulation 3(2)).
No Regulatory Impact Assessment has been prepared for this instrument as it has no impact on the costs of business.
