Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Order)
Under Part I of the Local Government Act 1988 (Competition), work falling within certain defined activities may be carried out by defined authorities only if particular conditions are fulfilled.
Article 2 exempts from the requirements of Part I security work carried out by certain defined authorities in Wales through an employee whose work may involve the exercise of a power to take action to deal with a breach of certain enactments in a controlled place (as defined in the Order), where that power cannot be exercised by anyone other than an employee of the defined authority or a constable, and at least 80 per cent. of whose working time is occupied carrying out security work at a controlled place. The defined authorities in Wales to which the Order applies are local authorities (namely, county councils, county borough councils, and community councils), combined fire authorities, National Park authorities and joint committees of such authorities.
Article 3 exempts from the requirements of Part I security work by those defined authorities in Wales so long as it is carried out in relation to a court-house.
