Note
Regulation 303 text was read from the Part 14 listing page rather than the individual regulation page. Part 14 Chapter 3 also provides for ministerial scrutiny (regs 304-308), complaints (309-310) and injunctions (311-313).
Every cell carries a summary, a source and a date checked. Topics whose source has not been verified are left marked “not researched” rather than filled with plausible text. Directives and statutes bind as to the result; what applies in practice is national implementing law. This is a research aid, not legal advice.
