Statutory Instruments
LOCAL GOVERNMENT, ENGLAND
Made
31st January 2005
Coming into force
1st February 2005
The First Secretary of State (“the Secretary of State”), in accordance with section 9(1) of the Local Government Act 2000(1), has consulted such local authorities, representatives of local government, and other persons as appear to him likely to be affected by this Order;
Following that consultation, the Secretary of State has laid a document before Parliament in accordance with section 9(3) of that Act;
The period specified in section 9(4) of that Act has expired, and, in preparing a draft of this Order and in accordance with section 9(6) of that Act, the Secretary of State has considered all representations made during that period;
The draft so prepared has been approved by a resolution of each House of Parliament;
The Secretary of State considers that it is not appropriate for certain enactments (which require local authorities to prepare their plans and strategies) to apply to a particular description of local authority, and that such enactments should be modified so as to operate more effectively in relation to that particular description of authority;
The Secretary of State further considers it expedient to make supplemental provision in relation to the application of such enactments to local authorities which cease to be of that particular description;
Therefore, in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 6(1) and 105 of the Local Government Act 2000, and by section 100(1) and (2) of the Local Government Act 2003(2), the Secretary of State makes the following Order:
2000 c. 22. Section 9 is amended by the Local Government Act 2003 (c. 26), section 100 and Schedule 3.
