(4) An application under regulation 15 of the 2005 Regulations for the partial transfer of a permit that is made to the regulator before 1st January 2013 and not determined before that date may be treated by the regulator as an application made under regulation 12(1) above, provided that the application has been amended to the satisfaction of the regulator (and is otherwise deemed to have been withdrawn).

(5) Subject to paragraphs (6) and (7), a permit granted under regulation 9 of the 2005 Regulations that is in force immediately before 1st January 2013 (“the permit”) continues to have effect until it is revoked or surrendered under these Regulations.

(7) Until such variations are made, the permit has effect in relation to emissions in the year beginning with 1st January 2013, or in any subsequent scheme year, as if—

(a)any reference in the permit to Commission Decision 2007/589/EC of 18 July 2007 were a reference to the Monitoring and Reporting Regulation, and any reference to Section 5.2, 5.3 or Section 9 of Annex 1 to that Decision were a reference to the corresponding provision of that Regulation;

(b)any reference in the permit to Annex 5 to the Directive were a reference to the Verification Regulation;

(8) Notwithstanding the variations made pursuant to paragraph (6), the permit as it had effect immediately before 1st January 2013 continues to have such effect in relation to any emissions arising before that date and any obligations relating to them.

Impact Assessments

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
