EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations.)
These Regulations amend the Employer's Liability (Compulsory Insurance) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1999 ("the 1999 Regulations"). The 1999 Regulations specify employers who are exempted from the requirements of Part III of the Employer's Liability (Defective Equipment and Compulsory Insurance) (Northern Ireland) Order 1972 ("the 1972 Order") to insure and maintain insurance against liability for personal injury suffered by their employees and arising out of and in the course of their employment. The specified employers are certain public bodies; the specified classes of employer include any employer to the extent that he is required to insure under a compulsory motor insurance scheme by virtue of the fact that his employees are carried on, or are alighting from or are entering into, a motor vehicle. The exemptions specified in the 1999 Regulations are additional to those contained in Article 7 of the 1972 Order.
These Regulations remove The National Board for Nursing, Midwifery and Health Visiting for Northern Ireland and the Northern Ireland Council for Postgraduate Medical and Dental Education from, and add the following bodies to, the exemptions specified in the 1999 Regulations, that is to say -
Economic Research Institute of Northern Ireland Limited;
General Consumer Council for Northern Ireland;
Ilex Urban Regeneration Company Limited;
Northern Ireland Medical and Dental Training Agency;
Northern Ireland Tourist Board;
Strategic Investment Board; and
The Northern Ireland Practice and Education Council for Nursing and Midwifery.
