Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)

Section 69 of the Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act 2013 (c.24) made amendments to section 47 of the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974. As a consequence some references to section 47 in other legislation are redundant and this Order deletes them. No impact assessment has been prepared for this Order as its sole purpose is to remove references to legislation which are no longer required.
