Section 192: Service of notifications and other documents in electronic form

470. Section 192 sets out the basis on which those provisions of the Bill requiring the giving of a notification or the sending of a document to a person may be satisfied. It has effect subject to section 194 which makes provision for electronic delivery of notifications and documents. Section 195 makes provision for the Secretary of State to specify the timing and location of things done electronically in order to comply with any of the provisions of the Act. These powers are required in order to enable the NDA to meet the Government’s targets for electronic delivery of services and in order to remove any scope for uncertainty about the form in which notifications and documents may be supplied electronically.
