Article 1 provides for the following provisions to come into effect after one month. These comprise giving powers to the Department to make regulations; allowing District Councils to issue prohibition notices and the appeal procedures to be followed if a prohibition notice has been issued; allowing District Councils to enforce this Order and; giving powers of entry and inspection to authorised persons.
The remainder of the Order will come into effect at a date set by the Department. However this is unlikely to be earlier than 12 months from the date the Order was made.
