Status:
Point in time view latest with prospective.There are multiple prospective versions of this provision on screen.
Status
The term provision is used to describe a definable element in a piece of legislation that has legislative effect – such as a Part, Chapter or section. A version of a provision is prospective either:
- where the provision (Part, Chapter or section) has never come into force or;
- where the text of the provision is subject to change, but no date has yet been appointed by the appropriate person or body for those changes to come into force.
Multiple prospective provisions are most likely to occur where a provision that is not yet in force is subject to a change that is also not yet in force.
Commencement Orders listed in the ‘Changes to Legislation’ box as not yet applied may bring these prospective versions into force.
Note: Point in time prospective is the latest available view of the legislation that includes by default all the prospective changes that might come into force.
Changes to legislation:
There are outstanding changes not yet made by the legislation.gov.uk editorial team to The Safety of Sports Grounds (Northern Ireland) Order 2006. Any changes that have already been made by the team appear in the content and are referenced with annotations.
