Transmission of documents
12.—(1) Any document required or authorised to be sent by one person to another under these Regulations may be sent by post or by means of electronic communication and any reference in these Regulations, however expressed, to writing is to be construed as including a reference to a form capable of being stored on, transmitted to and from, and read by means of a computer.
(2) Where, under these Regulations, there is a requirement that a copy of a statement, representation notice or other document should be sent by one person to another then, if that copy is sent by means of electronic communication, any further requirement that more than one copy should be sent is to be disregarded.
