This is probably a stupid question but.... As CDM 2015 is awaiting parliamentary approval and Parliament has been dissolved where does that leave things ?

I thought it went before parliamentary in January. Take a look at this: http://www.legislation.g...015/51/introduction/made

It's on the negative track, I believe. Which means that it becomes law unless someone objects, and since parliament is dissolved, no-one is there to object.

Ok Fair enough I was looking at the below on HSE website. "Please note the draft Regulations within the guidance have been amended following consultation. The Regulations and this draft Legal series guidance may be subject to change while the Regulations are awaiting Parliamentary approval."

Sorry, slightly wrong terminology, it's 'negative resolution procedure', see http://www.parliament.uk...formation-office/l07.pdf at teh top of page 4: Instruments subject to negative resolution procedure Such instruments become law unless there is an objection from the House (i) The instrument is laid in draft and cannot be made if the draft is disapproved within 40 days (draft instruments subject to the negative resolution are few and far between). (ii) The instrument is laid after making, subject to annulment if a motion to annul (known as a ‘prayer’) is passed within 40 days. SI 2015 No 51 was laid (in draft) before parliament on 29 January, so actually the 40 days was up on 10 March, and it could be made now.
