These Regulations re-enact, with modifications, the Control of Asbestos at Work Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1988 (S.R. 1988 No. 74) (“the 1988 Regulations”) as amended. The 1988 Regulations imposed requirements for the protection of employees who might be exposed to asbestos at work and of other persons who might be affected by such work and also imposed certain duties on employees concerning their own protection from such exposure.
