Applied Provisions of the Factory and Workshop Act, 1901, with respect to Regulations.
|
| |
80.—(1) Before the Secretary of State makes any regulations under this Act, he shall publish, in such manner as he may think best adapted for informing persons affected, notice of the proposal to make the regulations, and of the place where copies of the draft regulations may be obtained, and of the time (which shall be not less than twenty-one days) within which any objection made with respect to the draft regulations by or on behalf of persons affected must be sent to the Secretary of State.
|
| |
(2) Every objection must be in writing and state—
|
| |
(a) the draft regulations or portions of draft regulations objected to;
|
| |
(b) the specific grounds of objection; and
|
| |
(c) the omissions, additions, or modifications asked for.
|
| |
(3) The Secretary of State shall consider any objection made by or on behalf of any persons appearing to him to be affected which is sent to him within the required time, and he may, if he thinks fit, amend the draft regulations, and shall then cause the amended draft to be dealt with in like manner as an original draft.
|
| |
(4) Where the Secretary of State does not amend or withdraw any draft regulations to which any objection has been made, then (unless the objection either is withdrawn or appears to him to be frivolous) he shall, before making the regulations, direct an inquiry to be held in the manner herein-after provided.
|
| |
81.—(1) The Secretary of State may appoint a competent person to hold an inquiry with regard to any draft regulations, and to report to him thereon.
|
| |
(2) The inquiry shall be held in public, and any objector and any other person who, in the opinion of the person holding the inquiry, is affected by the draft regulations, may appear at the inquiry either in person or by counsel, solicitor, or agent.
|
| |
(3) The witnesses on the inquiry may, if the person holding it thinks fit, be examined on oath.
|
| |
(4) Subject as aforesaid, the inquiry and all proceedings preliminary and incidental thereto shall be conducted in accordance with rules made by the Secretary of State.
|
| |
(5) The fee to be paid to the person holding the inquiry shall be such as the Secretary of State may direct.
