The secondary legislation enacted by my Department since 1 January 2018 is outlined in the tables.
With the exception of S.I. 533 of 2018 and S.I. 30 of 2019 there was no additional regulatory burden placed on small and medium enterprises by any of the legislation.
- S.I. 533 of 2018 this replaces the previous Mercury Regulations (S.I. No. 27 of 2012, EU Regulation (EC) 1102/2008) and provides for the enforcement of EU Regulation (EU) 2017/852 on Mercury which is legally binding on all Member States. The impact on the industry as a result of the enforcement regulations is small. The Code of Practice on Mercury has been operational since July 2018. The treatment of amalgam mercury waste is in line with best practice. Dental Amalgam (silver fillings) usage has decreased in recent years mainly due to (1) the availability of more aesthetically pleasing white fillings and (2) improved oral hygiene.
- S.I. 30 of 2019 the Ionising Radiation Regulations transpose the Euratom Basic Safety Standard for Ionising Radiation Regulations which introduce new and more stringent safety and reporting standards for the protection of workers and members of the public from ionising radiation in the context of a revision of European radiation safety legislation.
In addition to the above Statutory Instruments the following Inland Fisheries Bye-Laws were made by my Department in 2018 and to date in 2019.
S.I. No.
