These Regulations revoke the Smoke Control Areas (Authorised Fuels) (Scotland) Regulations 2014 (“the 2014 Regulations”). The 2014 Regulations declared specified fuels to be authorised fuels for the purposes of Part III of the Clean Air Act 1993 (“the 1993 Act”).
The Regulatory Reform (Scotland) Act 2014 inserted subsections (5A) to (5C) into section 20 of the 1993 Act, which allow for fuels to be authorised by being included in a list kept by the Scottish Ministers and published in such manner as they consider appropriate. That list is published at www.scottishairquality.co.uk. Consequently, the 2014 Regulations are no longer required.
No Business and Regulatory Impact Assessment has been prepared for these Regulations as no impact upon business, charities or voluntary bodies is foreseen.
1993 c.11. The functions of the Secretary of State were transferred to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of section 53 of the Scotland Act 1998 (c.46). Section 20(6) was amended by section 50(2)(b) of the Regulatory Reform (Scotland) Act 2014 (asp 3).
