COMMENT
These laws can be complex especially providing summaries and information in English. This has taken 4 hours to produce this morning with various updates to our website and creation of new page. Please therefore confine comments to any questions, once you have read the law, rather than opinions which helps us to deal as best as we can with enquiries.
