(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Equality Act 2010 to reflect a change to European Union law consequent on the ruling by the Court of Justice of the European Union in Case C-236/09 of 1st March 2011 (Association Belge des Consommateurs Test-Achats ASBL and Others v Council). In that case, the Court ruled that Article 5(2) of Council Directive 2004/113/EC of 13 December 2004 implementing the principle of equal treatment between men and women in the access to and supply of goods and services (the “Gender Directive”) is invalid with effect from 21st December 2012. Article 5(2) provides that Member States may permit proportionate differences in individuals’ premiums and benefits where the use of sex is a determining factor in the assessment of risk based on relevant and accurate actuarial and statistical data.
Regulation 2 omits paragraph 22 of Schedule 3 (services: exceptions relating to insurance etc.) to the Equality Act 2010 (“the Insurance Exception”). This is the provision that implements Article 5(2) of the Gender Directive.
Regulation 3 provides that the Insurance Exception continues to apply to a contract concluded before 21st December 2012.
Regulation 4 requires the Treasury to review the operation and effect of these Regulations and publish a report within five years after they come into force and within every five years after that. Following a review it will fall to the Treasury to consider whether these Regulations should remain as they are, or be revoked or be amended. A further instrument would be needed to revoke these Regulations or amend them.
An Impact Assessment of the effect that these Regulations will have on the costs of business and the voluntary sector is available on HM Treasury’s website (www.hm-treasury.gov.uk) and is published with the Explanatory Memorandum alongside these Regulations on the legislation.gov.uk website.
