✦ Synopsis

a Code of Practice, (HMSO, 10p). The Regulations, which were made last March, permit trade unions to appoint safety representatives with legal backing to carry out certain functions, including holding safety inspections and representing work people on health and safety matters, as well as being trained during their working hours. They require an employer to permit time off with pay 'as may be reasonable' for such training. They come into force on 1 October, 1978. It is intended that the Code of Practice should also come into force on that date.
