Part 5: Integrated Transport Authorities etc.

Section 93: Incidental etc. provision

242.This section provides that the Secretary of State may make such incidental, consequential, transitional or supplementary provision as the Secretary of State deems necessary in support of an order made under Chapter 2 of Part 5 of the Act. For instance, an order could provide for the transfer of property and assets to an ITA in consequence of an order under section 86 or 87 which has delegated certain functions to an ITA.

243.Subsection (4) also allows the Secretary of State to make orders making such amendments, modifications, repeals or revocations to other primary and subordinate legislation as appear to the Secretary of State to be appropriate in consequence of making an order, for instance to reflect the fact that a new ITA has been established.
