Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act 2013 aimed in part to "make provision for the reduction of legislative burdens". Part 5, "Reduction of legislative burdens", made provision for "
sunset and review provisions" in
secondary legislation, i.e. • a power to review the effectiveness of the legislation within a specified period or at the end of a specified period • provision for the legislation to cease to have effect at the end of a specified day or a specified period • a power to consider whether the objectives which it was the purpose of the legislation to achieve remain appropriate and, if so, whether they could be achieved in another way.
