Part VIMISCELLANEOUS

Use of electronic communication

35.—(1) Any document required or authorised to be sent by one person to another under the provisions of these Regulations may, as an alternative to any other method, be sent by means of an electronic communication, provided the person who sends the document has reasonable grounds for believing that the document will come to the attention of the person to whom it is sent, in legible form, within a reasonable time.

(2) Where, under these Regulations, there is a requirement that a copy of a statement, representation, notice or other document should be sent to the National Assembly then, if that copy is sent in electronic form, any further requirement that more than one copy should be sent is to be disregarded.
