Changes and effects yet to be applied to Section 136:

  • s. 136(1) continuation of earlier affecting provision 2022 asp 8, sch. para. 21(2) by S.S.I. 2024/322 reg. 2(2)
  • s. 136(3) applied by S.I. 2020/733 reg. 53(4)(a) (This amendment not applied to legislation.gov.uk. Regulations revoked prospectively by S.I. 2020/1278, regs. 1(2), 66(4))
  • s. 136(3) applied by S.I. 2021/1404 reg. 35(4)(a) (This amendment not applied to legislation.gov.uk. The affecting statutory instrument has no effect. It was made under a procedure which meant that it ceased to have effect 28 days after signing unless it was debated and approved in Parliament within that time. Although it was debated, it was not approved by resolutions of both Houses within the required timeframe, so it has expired with no effect. See the Twelfth Report of Session 2022-23 of the Joint Committee on Statutory Instruments)
