Regulation ancillary responses

Ancillary Changes. "Ancillary responses" to regulation are technological changes that occur as a result of regulation but which are not necessary in order to bring those firms into compliance with regulatory requirements. 

The encouraging attitude of the firms interviewed suggests that further empirical work to investigate the systemic and ancillary responses to regulation may be worthwhile. 

The Regulations apply to all who design, manufacture, import, supply or use any pressure system or vessel for work purposes, whether for profit or not, but individual responsibilities extend only to matter under a person s direct control. There are a niunber of exclusions listed in Schedule 1 which largely refer to pressiree systems that are a necessary ancillary part of other equipment or processes.
