Part 7 of the Anti-terrorism, Crime and Security Act 2001, as applied by Part 7 of the Anti-terrorism, Crime and Security Act 2001 (Extension to Animal Pathogens) Order 2007, places duties on the occupiers of premises at which dangerous substances are kept. In that Part, a “dangerous substance” means anything which consists of or includes a substance for the time being mentioned in Schedule 5 to that Act, as substituted by that Order (section 58(4)(a)) or anything which is infected with or otherwise carries any such substance (section 58(4)(b)). However, under section 58(5) of that Act something which otherwise falls within that definition is not to be regarded as a dangerous substance if it satisfies conditions prescribed in regulations or is kept or used in circumstances so prescribed. These Regulations exercise those powers.
Regulation 2(2) sets out exceptions to section 58(4)(a). Regulation 3(2) sets out an exception to section 58(4)(b).
