1.  INTRODUCTION

This Schedule 1 contains a compendium of the definitions and acronyms used in this guidance, together with an interpretation section. Most of the definitions are also defined and explained in the relevant Chapter in which they are introduced; where this applies the relevant Chapter is specified, and users of this guide should refer to the Chapter which will give guidance as to the term's use and, in particular, will footnote any drafting considerations. A few of the definitions are not introduced in the body of the guidance itself. Where this is the case no cross reference to a Chapter is given, and footnotes are included here, in this Schedule, as a drafting aid.

Definitions which are "required drafting" (see further Section 2 .1.1 (Application and Implementation)) are marked with an asterisk.
