Part 5A: Review

The Secretary of State must from time to time—

carry out a review of the regulatory provision contained in Parts 2 to 5 of these Regulations; and
publish a report setting out the conclusions of the review.

The first report must be published before 1st November 2030.

Subsequent reports must be published at intervals not exceeding five years.

A report published under this regulation must, in particular—

set out the objectives to be achieved by the regulatory provision referred to in paragraph (1)(a);
assess the extent to which those objectives are achieved;
assess whether those objectives remain appropriate;
if those objectives remain appropriate, assess the extent to which they could be achieved in another way which involves less onerous regulatory provision.

In this regulation, "regulatory provision" has the same meaning as in sections 28 to 32 of the Small Business, Enterprise and Employment Act 2015 (see section 32 of that Act).
