These regulations outline a procedure for identifying and correcting misreported heavy-duty vehicles regarding their CO2 emission performance standards.

The Secretary of State is empowered to notify manufacturers of misreported vehicles, allowing manufacturers one month to provide evidence.

If the vehicle was incorrectly certified as a vocational vehicle, the Secretary of State corrects the manufacturer's average specific CO2 emissions, using either provided data or, failing that, a formula detailed in the Schedule.

The regulations apply to England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland and come into effect on July 29th, 2025.

This order corrects errors found in the Associated British Ports (Immingham Green Energy Terminal) Order 2025, a development consent order under the Planning Act 2008.

The Secretary of State received a request to correct the errors, which were then detailed in a schedule to amend the existing document.

The order itself is cited with an effective date and includes a signature from the relevant authority.

The corrections address issues in several articles and schedules of the 2025 order, primarily related to textual inconsistencies and numbering errors within the original order.

The Welfare of Animals (Transport) (Amendment) Regulations 2025, effective July 22nd, 2025, amend Council Regulation (EC) No 1/2005 concerning animal transport.

The regulations were developed after consultation with relevant stakeholders and apply across England, Scotland, and Wales.

The Pollution Prevention and Control (Fees) (Miscellaneous Amendments) Regulations 2025 increase hourly rates for specialist and non-specialist officers involved in environmentally regulating the offshore oil and gas industry.

The changes aim to update existing fees to better reflect the cost of providing regulatory services.

The Contracts for Difference (Miscellaneous Amendments) (No. 2) Regulations 2025 amend existing regulations governing Contracts for Difference (CFDs) in the UK energy market.

Key changes include expanding the definition of 'eligible generator' to encompass biomass stations, thereby extending support for renewable energy production; and granting the Secretary of State the authority to direct CFD counterparties to implement amendments related to sustainability obligations in CFDs entered into after the regulation's commencement date.

These amendments aim to promote sustainable energy sources and enhance the environmental considerations within the energy market.

The Electricity Act 1989 (Requirement of Consent for Solar Generating Stations) (England) Order 2025, effective December 31, 2025, amends the 1989 Act to increase the permitted capacity of solar generating stations in England from 50 to 100 megawatts before requiring Secretary of State consent.

The Order applies to England and Wales and is supported by a separate impact assessment.

The Tuberculosis in Animals (England) (Amendment) Order 2025 amends the 2021 Order to clarify the power to slaughter animals infected with tuberculosis, remove outdated references to the European Union Common Agricultural Policy, and broaden the Secretary of State's authority to publish information aiding tuberculosis prevention.

The amendment also adds several parishes to Schedule 3, expanding the specified areas covered under the order.

It comes into force on July 15, 2025 and covers England and Wales.

The Teversham Award Drains Variation Order 2025 confirms a revised scheme for maintaining the Award Drain in Teversham, Cambridgeshire. The Environment Agency submitted the original plan, which was modified and subsequently confirmed by the Secretary of State.

The schedule details the revised drain's definition, the effective date, and the councils’ joint responsibility for maintenance.
