The effect of new clause 83(1)(ja) is to authorise regulations to be made prohibiting or re- stricting the form that an approved product may take: clarify the date on which an interim approval is revoked under clause 6(7) of Schedule 1: incorporate a new offence in the Bill (new clause 25A) that relates to 2 new types of licences that were inserted by the select committee.
