Conclusion
We strongly recommend that the initial scope of the regime be enshrined in the Bill itself, and not be left to delegated legislation, in order to give stakeholders the certainty they need to prepare for the new regime.

39. We agree with the Committee’s view that including the initial scope of the regime on the face of the Bill will provide more certainty for stakeholders. Consequently, we have amended the Bill to include most of the criteria for the initial scope of the regime. The Government intends to publish the draft secondary regulations for scope upon introduction of the Bill to Parliament to provide the necessary technical details. This is to allow for appropriate Parliamentary scrutiny and to provide further certainty to stakeholders during Bill passage so they can prepare for the new regime.
