Amendments 60 to 62, 83, 84, 86 and 88 seek to further clarify the role and function of relevant authorities and the powers that can be afforded to inspectors through product and metrology regulations. Those that may be designated as relevant authorities are restricted by Clauses 3(2) and 6(2) to only those authorities fulfilling a public function, such as local authorities and regulators, as my noble friend Lord Hunt mentioned earlier.
