Immigration (Guardianship of Children) Act 1946
Immigration (Guardianship of Children) Regulations 2001
INSTRUMENT OF REVOCATION
- This Instrument is made under the Immigration (Guardianship of Children) Regulations 2001 (‘the Regulations’).
2. The purpose of the Instrument is to revoke Instrument Number IMMI 08/118 which specified authorities for the purpose of Regulation 4 of the Regulations. Regulation 4 of the Regulations was repealed on 24 March 2012 and so a Legislative Instrument for the purpose of Regulation 4 is no longer required or necessary.
3. Consultation is unnecessary as, under subsection 18(1) of the Legislative Instruments Act 2003, the Instrument is of a minor or machinery nature and does not substantially alter existing arrangements.
4. Under section 42 of the Legislative Instruments Act 2003 the Instrument is subject to disallowance and therefore a Human Rights Statement of Compatibility has been provided.
5. The Office of Best Practice Regulation has advised that a Regulatory Impact Statement is not required (OBPR Reference 13644).
6. The Instrument, IMMI 12/045, commences on 15 May 2012.
