Counter-Terrorism and Security Act 2015

Section 13: Regulations: giving of notices, legislation relating to passports

74.Subsections (1) and (2) provide that the Secretary of State may, by regulations, make provision about the giving of notice under sections 4 and 9. Such regulations may make provision about cases in which notice is deemed to have been given.

75.Subsection (3) provides that the Secretary of State may make regulations providing for legislation relating to passports or other identity documents to apply (with or without modifications) to permits to return. Given the close parallels between passports and permits to return, as documents confirming the holder’s identity and confirming the holder’s right to return to the UK, it is appropriate that the Secretary of State has such a power, to enable consistency of treatment between them.

76.Subsections (4) to (5) provides that regulations made under this section are subject to the negative resolution procedure.
