As the Deputy is aware, a review of the Explosives Act 1875 is ongoing within my Department. The review deals with matters relating to the manufacture, importation and storage of all forms of explosives including fireworks and consequently its review is a complex and detailed task. Pending finalisation of the review, it would be inappropriate for me to comment on any aspects of the likely outcome of the review.
I will communicate the outcome of the review when it is completed.
