Fluorinated Greenhouse Gases Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2009 (S.R. No. 184 of 2009).

These Regulations continue to give effect to Regulation (EC) No 842/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council on certain fluorinated greenhouse gases and other Community legislation in this field. The Regulations make provision with respect to the importation, placing on the market and use of such gases and contain provisions which create offences for breaches of the provisions of the Council Regulation. They also prescribe the qualifications which are required in order to carry out certain work involving equipment containing fluorinated greenhouse gases or the recovery of such gases. It is an offence to carry out such work without the required qualification. The Regulations define the competent authority and the enforcing authority for purposes of these Regulations and the Council Regulation.
