(6)In this paragraph a reference to the area affected by the proposal is a reference to the area in which is situated the line or station referred to in paragraph 1(1).

Objections etc.

(i)the report from the London Transport Users' Committee required by sub-paragraph (4) of paragraph 4, and

(ii)any further reports required by him under that paragraph, and

(b)carrying out any consultation required by sub-paragraph (2),

the Mayor of London must decide whether or not to consent to the proposed closure.

(2)If any of the services to which the proposed closure relates operates in any area outside Greater London, the Mayor of London must, before deciding whether to consent to the proposed closure, consult the local authority for each such area.

(3)At any time after the period for making objections the Mayor of London may make that decision without receiving a report or further report if—

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.
