EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
The Smoke Control Areas (Exempted Fireplaces) (No. 2) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2013 (“the Principal Regulations”) set out those fireplaces exempted from the provisions of Article 17 of the Clean Air (Northern Ireland) Order 1981 (“the 1981 Order”).
These Regulations amend the Principal Regulations by setting out additional classes of fireplaces, subject to specified conditions, as exempt from the provisions of Article 17 of the 1981 Order, and amending the entries relative to a number of prescribed classes of fireplace.
