Abstract/Citation
Pursuant to the Factories Act, Chapter 514, sets forth safety standards for the construction, installation and maintenance of electrical fixtures and apparatus in factories. The Factories Act has since been repealed by article 129 of the Occupational Safety and Health Act, 2007 (Act No. 15 of 2007), which becomes the new basic text for this Regulation. Article 129(2)(b) provides that:
"any subsidiary legislation issued before the commencement of this Act shall, as long as it is not inconsistent with this Act remain in force until repealed or revoked by subsidiary legislation under the provisions of this Act and shall, for all purposes be deemed to have been made under this Act."
