United Kingdom Statutory Instrument
These Regulations make the Office of Rail Regulation (“ORR”) responsible for the enforcement of health and safety law in relation to the operation of railways, tramways and certain other systems of guided transport in place of the Health and Safety Executive (“HSE”), (i.e. the enforcement of Part 1 of the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 (“the 1974 Act”), regulations made under section 15 and certain “existing statutory provisions” as defined in section 53 of the 1974 Act, as extended in scope by section 117 of the Railways Act 1993). Thus the ORR will be the “enforcing authority” for these purposes within the meaning of section 18(7) of the 1974 Act, (regulation 3).
