(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Employers' Liability (Compulsory Insurance) Exemption Regulations 1971 (S.I. 1971/1933) (the 1971 Regulations). The 1971 Regulations list employers who are exempted from the requirement of the Employers' Liability (Compulsory Insurance) Act 1969 (c. 57) (the 1969 Act) to insure and maintain insurance against liability for bodily injury or disease sustained by their employees and arising out of and in the course of their employment. The exemptions listed in the 1971 Regulations are additional to those contained in section 3 of the 1969 Act.
These Regulations will exempt any employer to the extent he is required to insure and maintain insurance by section 1(1) of the 1969 Act against liability for bodily injury sustained by his employee who is carried in or upon a vehicle or who is entering or getting on to, or alighting from, a vehicle, in the circumstances specified in that subsection and where that bodily injury is caused by, or arises out of, the use by the employer of a vehicle on a road.
The amendments made by these Regulations are consequential upon the changes made to Part VI of the Road Traffic Act 1988 (c. 52) by regulation 2(3) of the Motor Vehicles (Compulsory Insurance) Regulations 1992 (S.I. 1992/3036).
S.I. 1971/1933 to which there are amendments not relevant to these Regulations.
