The Data Retention Regulations 2014

What to do with it
As published

11 Variation or revocation of notices

(1) The Secretary of State may vary a retention notice. (2) The Secretary of State must give or publish notice of the variation in such manner as the Secretary of State considers appropriate for bringing the variation to the attention of the public telecommunications operator (or description of operators) to whom it relates. (3) A variation comes into force when notice of it is given or published in accordance with paragraph (2) or (if later) at the time or times specified for this purpose in the notice of variation. (4) Regulations 4(2), 6 and 12(1)(a), and paragraphs (1), (7) and (10) of this regulation, apply in relation to a retention notice as varied as they apply in relation to a retention notice. (5) Regulation 4(3) applies in relation to a retention notice as varied as it applies in relation to a retention notice but as if the references to the notice coming into force included references to the variation coming into force. (6) Regulation 5 applies in relation to the making of a variation as it applies in relation to the giving of a retention notice. (7) The Secretary of State may revoke (whether wholly or in part) a retention notice. (8) The Secretary of State must give or publish notice of the revocation in such manner as the Secretary of State considers appropriate for bringing the revocation to the attention of the operator (or description of operators) to whom it relates. (9) A revocation comes into force when notice of it is given or published in accordance with paragraph (8) or (if later) at the time or times provided for in the notice of revocation. (10) The fact that a retention notice has been revoked in relation to a particular description of communications data and a particular operator (or description of operators) does not prevent the giving of another retention notice in relation to the same description of data and the same operator (or description of operators).

How this law is officially changed

Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
