These Regulations, which are made under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 (c.68), are the fifth set of regulations which implement (in Great Britain) Council Directive 2000/78/EC of 27th November 2000 establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment (OJL 303, 2.12.2000, p.16) so far as it relates to discrimination on grounds of age. The Regulations amend the Employment Equality (Age) Regulations 2006 (SI 2006/1031). Regulation 3 takes account of statutory transfer schemes in relation to the exception for provision of certain benefits based on length of service. Regulations 4 and 5 respectively amend the provision that an employee may serve a questionnaire on his employer, and the provision which stipulates the period in which proceedings are to be brought, to take account of the Employment Act 2002 (Dispute Resolution) Regulations 2004.
