(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Noise Insulation (Railways and Other Guided Transport Systems) Regulations 1996 by adding procedures for predicting noise levels generated by "Eurostar" type trains including the version known as "Regional Eurostar" or "North of London". Those procedures are described in "Calculation of Railway Noise 1995 (Supplement 1)" copies of which are obtainable by the public from The Stationery Office [ISBN 0 11 551873 8].
1973 c. 26, to which there are amendments and of which there are repeals not relevant to these Regulations.
Since these Regulations were not the first to be made under section 20, a draft of them did not require to be approved by a resolution of each House of Parliament pursuant to subsection (9).
S.I. 1996/428.
