Which would be correct when quoting the Management of Health and Safety Regulations? Is the latter only relevant in relation to Regulation 22?

I would write - Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations (as amended 2006).

Not 'Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 (as amended 2006)'?
My query is as the amended 2006 bit only really applies to Reg 22, is this really necessary if the context does not apply.
(I appreciate it is probably fairly trivial in the scheme of things).

Or even " The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 (as amended)" this will pick up on all the amendments made since 1999.

The full title of the amending regulations is the Management of Health and Safety at Work (Amendment) Regulations 2006.
And this only contains the amendment to regulation 22.
The Management of Health and Safety at Regulations 1999 contain the text and require the 2006 amendment to be considered.
There is no regulation other than 22 in the amended
So in that respect you would not be able to confer requirements of regulation 3 to the 2006 amendment

There is probably no right or wrong way. However, I did a MA in H,S&E Law and the prescribed reference for statutory instruments was as I had written.
The MHSWR originally was part of the six pack and thus introduced in 1992, updated in 1999 and again in 2006. Therefore the correct protocol I believe is to use the date of the last amendment, regardless of the content or impact of the amendment. Some may disagree....

So whilst your referencing to MHSWR was 2006, did you reference Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974 or Health and Safety at Work etc Act (Application Outside Great Britain) Order 1995
Whilst compiling my bibliography I used MHSWR 1999 & HSWA 1974 even though the 2003 amendment to MHSWR was available

I did say, 'statutory instruments' and also there is probably no 'right or wrong way'. It will depend on the institution's preference...

Thus hence thence - I agree with RR.

With your MA in H,S&E law
A prosecution under the management regs for failure to produce risk assessment would be for a breach of Reg3 under MHSWR?

Yes, I believe a failure to produce a suitable and sufficient RA would result in a prosecution pursuant to Reg 3. Not sure what relevance this question has to the original topic? But hey, it's Friday...LOL.

According to my research the MHSWR are officially known as - Management of Health and Safety at Work (Amendment) Regulations 2006 (S.I. 2006/438). Whether a prosecution would cite the 1999 or 2006 version I'm not sure, but I suspect that latter.
