2.  In section 85 of the Sex Discrimination Act 1975(3) —

Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations are made under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 and amend the Sex Discrimination Act 1975 (“the 1975 Act”) so that the 1975 Act accords with the obligations arising under Council Directive 76/207/EEC (OJ No. L39, 14.2.76, p40) in relation to the armed forces of the Crown.

The Regulations amend section 85(4) of the 1975 Act. The effect of that subsection was that the 1975 Act did not apply to service in the naval, military or air forces of the Crown. The wording which appeared in that subsection is now omitted (so that the Act now applies to such service); in its place is substituted wording making it clear that nothing in the 1975 Act renders unlawful an act done for the purpose of ensuring the combat effectiveness of any of those forces.

The Regulations also repeal section 85(6) of the 1975 Act; the effect of this is to apply the Act to employment in support of the armed forces.
