(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations are made in exercise of the powers conferred by paragraph 1(1) and (3) of schedule 2 of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (c.16) in order to address deficiencies (as defined in section 8(2) and (3) of that Act) arising from the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union.
These Regulations make amendments to primary and subordinate legislation in the field of public health in respect of proof of age and identification requirements where restrictions on the hire and use of sunbeds by persons under 18 and the sale of tobacco and nicotine products to such persons apply.
An impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no significant impact on the private or voluntary sector is foreseen.
