The power to make an order under this Act is exercisable by statutory instrument.

A statutory instrument containing a control order made by virtue of section 6(1) shall be laid before Parliament after being made but, unless it is approved by a resolution of each House before the end of the period of 40 days beginning with the day on which it is made, shall cease to have effect at the end of that period.

In reckoning that period no account shall be taken of any time during which Parliament is dissolved or prorogued or during which either House is adjourned for more than 4 days.

A statutory instrument containing an order under section 12 shall not be made unless a draft of it has been laid before and approved by a resolution of each House of Parliament.
