This Order revokes the Wireless Telegraphy Act 2006 (Directions to OFCOM) Order 2010, effectively ending the specific legal directions previously issued by the Secretary of State to the Office of Communications (OFCOM).

It applies to the UK's telecommunications regulator, removing mandated requirements to vary wireless telegraphy licences, amend spectrum trading and charging regulations, and set specific auction rules for electromagnetic spectrum.

The revocation reflects the government's position that the 2010 mandates, which aimed to facilitate the deployment of mobile broadband, have been fully implemented and are no longer necessary.

Modified employment, insolvency, and procurement laws to facilitate the nationalisation and property transfer of British Steel Limited.

These Regulations modify several areas of UK law—including employment, freedom of information, insolvency, and procurement—to facilitate the transfer of property and liabilities from British Steel Limited (ACo) to a state-owned company, SPV 2026 Limited (BCo).

They ensure all British Steel employees are transferred to the new entity while removing the statutory duty to consult with employee representatives during this specific process.

The instrument further exempts the new company from transparency requirements under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and public procurement rules under the Procurement Act 2023, while protecting government ministers and agencies from being legally classified as shadow directors.

These provisions apply to the Secretary of State, UK Government Investments Limited, and the personnel and management of the involved companies starting 16 July 2026.

Transferred the assets and specific liabilities of British Steel Limited to a government-owned successor company and renamed both entities.

These Regulations transfer nearly all property, rights, and liabilities of British Steel Limited (ACo) to SPV 2026 Limited (BCo), a company owned by the Secretary of State, effective 16 July 2026.

The instrument excludes specific financial obligations, such as intra-group debts and unsecured loans, which remain with the original company.

It mandates that BCo assume the legal identity of British Steel Limited for the purpose of existing contracts and legal proceedings, while ACo is renamed 2026 Transferor Company Limited and BCo is renamed British Steel Limited.

The regulations also authorize the separation of pension scheme accounts and modify how smaller authorities are categorized for audit purposes when financial reviews are outstanding.

Substituted a dynamic road designation process for a fixed list of highways managed by the West Midlands Combined Authority.

This Order amends the West Midlands Combined Authority (Functions and Amendment) Order 2017 to modify how highways are designated for management by the West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA).

It replaces the fixed list of 'Combined Authority roads' with a dynamic 'key route network' that the WMCA may designate or alter under powers granted by the Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Act 2009.

The Order applies to the WMCA and its constituent councils, transferring the ability to exercise functions related to permit schemes and apparatus affected by highway works from a defined schedule to any road designated within the key route network.

It establishes a new price schedule based on vehicle type, carrying capacity, and wheel count, while maintaining a specific discount for users of a pre-paid card scheme until July 2028.

The Order applies to all motorists crossing the bridge and revokes the previous tolling order from 2023.

Renamed the High Court's Chancery Division and transferred the Admiralty and Commercial Courts into this newly titled Business and Property Division.

These changes apply to the judiciary of England and Wales and affect a wide range of primary and secondary legislation that references High Court structures and judicial offices.

Adjusted the initial registration deadlines and accounting periods for the new UK carbon import tax system.
