1. The Committee takes note of the Government’s report. It notes with interest the adoption of numerous regulations for the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland, which continue to be in conformity with the provisions of the Convention.
2. Article 2 of the Convention. The Committee notes the Government’s indication that domestic and offshore premises are excluded from the scope of application of the legislation. It further notes the Government’s indication that the legislation will be extensively reviewed in consultation with the Confederation of British Industry (CBI), the Trade Union Congress (TUC), the Health and Safety Commission (HSC) and the local authorities (LAs). The Committee therefore requests the Government to supply information on the development of the legislative process, and to supply copies of new regulations once they have been adopted. The Committee further requests the Government to indicate whether the review of the legislation also comprises the legislation applicable to Northern Ireland.
