HEALTH AND SAFETY MINES AND QUARRIES

These Regulations contain repeals of provisions of the Mines and Quarries Act 1954 and regulations made thereunder. They are made in consequence of the coming into operation on 1st April 1975 of sections 2 to 9 (general duties) of the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 which extends the operation of sections 21 (improvement notices) and 22 (prohibition notices) to cases to which the superseded provisions applied. They also supplement the Mines and Quarries Acts 1954 to 1971 (Repeals and Modifications) Regulations 1974 by substituting, for a reference to the Secretary of State, a reference to the Health and Safety Executive in section 2(4) of the Mines and Quarries (Tips) Act 1969 and section 1(7) of the Mines Management Act 1971.
