4 Revocation of recognition order

(1) A recognition order may be revoked by a further order (“a revocation order”) made by the Secretary of State if at any time it appears to the Secretary of State— (a) that any requirement of Chapter 2 is not satisfied in relation to the qualification to which the recognition order relates; or (b) that the qualifying body has failed to comply with any obligation imposed on it by or by virtue of these Regulations. (2) A revocation order must state the date on which it takes effect which must be after the period of three months beginning with the date on which the revocation order is made. (3) Before making a revocation order the Secretary of State must— (a) give written notice of the intention to do so to the qualifying body; (b) take such steps as the Secretary of State considers reasonably practicable for bringing the notice to the attention of persons holding the qualification affected or in the course of studying for it; and (c) publish the notice in such manner as the Secretary of State thinks appropriate for bringing the notice to the attention of any other persons who are in the opinion of the Secretary of State likely to be affected. (4) A notice under paragraph (3) must— (a) state the reasons for which the Secretary of State proposes to act; and (b) give particulars of the rights conferred by paragraph (5). (5) A person falling within paragraph (6) may, within the period of three months beginning with the date of the service or publication of the notice or such longer period as the Secretary of State may allow, make written representations to the Secretary of State and, if desired, oral representations to a person appointed for that purpose by the Secretary of State. (6) The persons falling within this paragraph are— (a) the qualifying body on which a notice is served under paragraph (3); (b) any person holding the qualification affected or in the course of studying for it; and (c) any other person who appears to the Secretary of State to be affected by the revocation order. (7) The Secretary of State must have regard to any representations made in accordance with paragraph (5) in determining whether to make the revocation order. (8) If in any case the Secretary of State considers it essential to do so in the public interest the Secretary of State may make a revocation order without regard to the restriction imposed by paragraph (2), even if— (a) no notice has been given or published under paragraph (3); or (b) the period of time for making representations in pursuance of such a notice has not expired. (9) A revocation order may contain such transitional provision as the Secretary of State thinks necessary or expedient. (10) A revocation order may be made at the request or with the consent of the qualifying body and any such revocation is not subject to— (a) the restrictions imposed by paragraphs (1) and (2); or (b) the requirements of paragraphs (3) to (5) and (7). (11) On making a revocation order the Secretary of State must— (a) give written notice of the making of the order to the qualifying body; (b) take such steps as the Secretary of State considers reasonably practicable for bringing the making of the order to the attention of persons holding the qualification affected or in the course of studying for it; and (c) publish a notice of the making of the order in such manner as the Secretary of State thinks appropriate for bringing the notice to the attention of any other persons who are in the Secretary of State's opinion likely to be affected by it.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

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.
