(1)This section applies in relation to a power to make modifications conferred by—
(a)section 26, 37, 45, 49 or 50, or
(b)paragraph 19 of Schedule 2.
(2)Before making modifications under a power to which this section applies (“a relevant power”) the Secretary of State must lay a draft of the modifications before Parliament.
(3)If, within the 40-day period, either House of Parliament resolves not to approve the draft, the Secretary of State may not take any further steps in relation to the proposed modifications.
(4)If no such resolution is made within that period, the Secretary of State may make the modifications in the form of the draft.
(5)Subsection (3) does not prevent a new draft of proposed modifications being laid before Parliament.
(6)In this section “40-day period”, in relation to a draft of proposed modifications, means the period of 40 days beginning with the day on which the draft is laid before Parliament (or, if it is not laid before each House of Parliament on the same day, the later of the 2 days on which it is laid).
(7)For the purposes of calculating the 40-day period, no account is to be taken of any period during which Parliament is dissolved or prorogued or during which both Houses are adjourned for more than 4 days.
(8)A relevant power—
(a)may be exercised generally, only in relation to specified cases or subject to exceptions (including provision for a case to be excepted only so long as specified conditions are satisfied);
(b)may be exercised differently in different cases or circumstances;
(c)includes a power to make incidental, supplementary, consequential or transitional modifications.
(9)Provision included in a licence, or in a document or agreement relating to licences, by virtue of a relevant power—
(a)may make different provision for different cases;
(b)need not relate to the activities authorised by the licence;
(c)may do any of the things authorised for licences of that type by section 7(2A), (3), (4) or (6A) of EA 1989.
(10)The Secretary of State must publish details of any modifications made under a relevant power as soon as reasonably practicable after they are made.
(11)If under a relevant power the Secretary of State makes modifications of the standard conditions of a licence, the Authority must—
(a)make the same modification of those standard conditions for the purposes of their incorporation in licences of that type granted after that time, and
(b)publish the modification.
(12)A modification made under a relevant power of part of a standard condition of a licence does not prevent any other part of the condition from continuing to be regarded as a standard condition for the purposes of Part 1 of EA 1989.
(13)The power conferred by a relevant power to “modify” (in relation to licence conditions or a document) includes a power to amend, add to or remove, and references to modifications are to be construed accordingly.
