  "long_title": "These Regulations, to the extent they are made under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 (c. 68), implement Council Directive 2003/88/EC concerning certain aspects of the organisation of working time (O.J. L299, 18.11.2003, p. 9) (which consolidated Council Directive 93/104/EC (O.J. L307, 13.12.93, p. 18) as amended by Council Directive 2000/34/EC (O.J. L195, 01.08.2000, p. 41)) and provisions concerning working time in Council Directive 94/33/EC on the protection of young people at work (O.J. L216, 20.8.94, p. 12). The provisions in the latter Directive which are implemented relate only to adolescents (those who have not attained the age of 18 and are over compulsory school age). These Regulations consolidate and replace the provisions of the Working Time Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1998 and the various Statutory Rules which amended those Regulations from 1998 to 2009.",
