The Defence Council makes the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 328(5), 329 and 373(5)(b) of the Armed Forces Act 2006(1).
A draft of this instrument was laid before Parliament in accordance with section 373(3) of that Act(2) and approved by resolution of each House of Parliament.
2006 c. 52; section 329 was amended by section 1 of the Armed Forces (Flexible Working) Act 2018 (c. 2). Section 328(5) is cited because of the meaning given to the word “prescribed”. The Armed Forces Act 2006 was due to expire on account of section 382 of that Act (as amended by section 1 of the Armed Forces Act 2016 (c. 21)) but has been continued most recently by S.I. 2018/519. The Defence Council is treated as if it were a Minister of the Crown for the purposes of the Statutory Instruments Act 1946 (c. 36) by virtue of section 373(2) of the Armed Forces Act 2006.
Section 373(3) was amended by section 1 of the Armed Forces (Flexible Working) Act 2018 (c. 2).
