2015 CHAPTER 20

Commentary on Sections

Section 90: Poisons and explosives precursors

420.This section introduces Schedule 21. The Schedule abolishes the Poisons Board and amends the Poisons Act 1972 to introduce a common regime for regulating (a) activities involving non-medicinal poisons and (b) activities involving explosives precursors (explosives precursors are chemicals that can be used to make explosives). At present, the sale of non-medicinal poisons is regulated by the Poisons Act 1972, while activities involving explosives precursors are regulated by EU Regulation 98/2013 (which came into force in the UK on 2 September 2014). The new regime established by Schedule 21 brings the regulation of poisons into line with the regulation of explosives precursors under the EU Regulation and allow for a single licensing regime to cover both poisons and explosives precursors. See the commentary on Schedule 21.

421.This section and Schedule 21 form part of the law of England and Wales and Scotland and come into force on a day to be appointed by the Secretary of State in a commencement order.

Nodiadau Esboniadol

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.

Asesiadau Effaith

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
