Instruments of defective pattern

8.—(1) Where the Director is satisfied that relevant instruments, constructed according to a pattern in respect of which an EC pattern approval granted by a member State or an EEA State other than the United Kingdom is in force, reveal in service a defect of a general nature which makes them unsuitable for their intended use, he shall cause a notice to be published in the London Gazette, the Edinburgh Gazette and the Belfast Gazette, requiring all relevant instruments of the pattern in question used for the purposes of ascertaining the amount of electrical energy supplied to any person in England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, respectively, to be removed as soon as practicable and in any event within a period of six months beginning with the date of publication of the notice in the jurisdiction in which the meter is situated.

(2) A notice under this regulation shall give particulars of the pattern to which it relates and shall include a statement of the grounds for the publication of the notice.

(3) The Director may at any time withdraw a notice under this regulation by publishing a notice of withdrawal in the London, Edinburgh and Belfast Gazettes.
