(This note is not part of the Order)
These Regulations come into force on 1st October 2005 and they amend the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2004 (S.I.2004/1861) (as amended by the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) (Amendment) Regulations 2004 (S.I. 2004/2351) and the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure (Amendment) Regulations 2005 (S.I.2005/435)) (“the main Regulations”)
The main purpose of these Regulations is to implement, by regulation 2(4)(j), section 36 of the Employment Relations Act 2004 (c. 24) (“the 2004 Act”), which provides that certain powers available to employment tribunals under rule 54(1) (national security proceedings) of the main Regulations can be used in particular proceedings, whether or not they are Crown employment proceedings, if the tribunal or the chairman considers it expedient in the interests of national security.
These Regulations also make minor clarifications to and correct drafting errors in the main Regulations.
The final Regulatory Impact Assessment (“RIA”) for the 2004 Act indicated that any impact on business arising from section 36 (the national security amendment) would be likely to be negligible. In view of this, and because none of the other amendments made by these Regulations is substantive, and will not therefore impact on business, charities, voluntary bodies or the public sector, a full RIA in respect of these Regulations has not been prepared.
1996 c. 17; by virtue of section 1 of the Employment Rights (Dispute Resolution) Act 1998 (c. 8) industrial tribunals were renamed employment tribunals and references to “industrial tribunal” and “industrial tribunals” in any enactment were substituted with “employment tribunal” and “employment tribunals”. Section 4(6) was amended by paragraph 12(4) of Schedule 1 to the Employment Rights (Dispute Resolution) Act 1998 and section 4(6A) was inserted by section 3(6) of that Act. Section 7 was interpreted by section 239(4) of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 (c. 52), as inserted by paragraph 1 of Schedule 5 to the Employment Relations Act 1999 (c. 26). Paragraph 7(3)(f)(i) was repealed by paragraph 14(2) of Schedule 1 to the Employment Rights (Dispute Resolution) Act 1998 and paragraph 7(3)(f)(i) was inserted by section 24(1) of the Employment Act 2002 (c. 22). Section 7(3A) was inserted by section 2 of the Employment Rights (Dispute Resolution) Act 1998 and section 7(3A) was then substituted by section 26 of the Employment Act 2002. Section 10 was substituted, and section 10A was inserted, by paragraph 3 of Schedule 8 to the Employment Relations Act 1999. Section 10(6) was amended by section 36 of the Employment Relations Act 2004 (c. 24).
S.I. 2004/1861, amended by S.I.2004/2351; there is another amending instrument which is not relevant.
