(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order appoints 1st November 1996 as the day on which sections 1, 2 and 4 of the Private International Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1995 shall come into force. These provisions apply only in England and Wales. Sections 1 and 2 establish for the High Court and county courts new rules relating to interest on judgment debts. Section 4 makes various consequential amendments.

The effect of this Order is to bring into force all those provisions of the Act which are not already in force, excepting section 3 (which relates to interest on arbitral awards). Part III of the Act was brought into force on 1 May 1996 (S.I. No. 1996/995). Section 3 has been superseded by section 49 of the Arbitration Act 1996 and will be repealed when that section is brought into force.
