Provision of service by provider of last resort

Section 18: Qualification of duty in respect of services funded by others

96.Section 18 limits the circumstances in which, if a franchise ends and is not replaced with another franchise, the relevant franchising authority is required to continue to provide the services as the "operator of last resort". The "operator of last resort" function is in section 30 of the 1993 Act (which is amended by this Act). The limitation is that the operator of last resort need not provide services that were funded under the franchise agreement in question by the NAW, a PTE or TfL if it believes that that party will not supply it with the necessary funds. The section gives the operator of last resort the discretion to decide not to provide the services if he believes the funding will not be forthcoming - i.e. before he falls short of the necessary funding. The relevant franchising authority, and therefore operator of last resort, for the purposes of this section is the Secretary of State for franchises in England and Wales, or the Scottish Ministers for Scottish franchises.

Nodiadau Esboniadol

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.
