EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order revokes subordinate legislation made, or treated as having been made, under the Trading with the Enemy Act 1939 (“the 1939 Act”) and the Emergency Laws (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1953.

The legislation falls mainly into 3 categories:

a)

Instruments providing for enemy assets to be transferred to a custodian appointed by the Board of Trade.

b)

Instruments providing for certain named territories to cease to be treated as enemy territory for the purposes of the 1939 Act.

c)

Instruments authorising trade with certain territories notwithstanding section 1 of the 1939 Act.

A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.

(1)

1939 c.89 (2 & 3 Geo. 6). Relevant amendments were made to sections 1 and 15 by the Emergency Laws (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1953 (c.47). Relevant amendments were made to section 5(1) by the Companies Act 1948 (c.38). Relevant amendments were made to section 7 by the Criminal Justice Act 1982 (c.48) and Criminal Procedure (Scotland) Act 1975 (c. 21).

The functions of the Board of Trade including the power to make Orders under sections 1, 5, 7 and 15 of the Trading with the Enemy Act 1939 and section 2 and Schedule 2 of the Emergency Laws (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1953 were transferred to the Secretary of State so as to be exercisable concurrently with the Board under the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry Order 1970 (S.I. 1970/1537). The functions of the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry were transferred to the Secretary of State for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform under the Secretaries of State for Children, Schools and Families, for Innovation, Universities and Skills and for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Order 2007 (S.I. 2007/3224).
