EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order updates the Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000 (c. 41) to reflect changes in the law of Gibraltar and makes other miscellaneous amendments to provisions in the 2000 Act that apply in Gibraltar.
The Order updates references to Gibraltar legislation and replaces references to the House of Assembly of Gibraltar with references to the Gibraltar Parliament. It removes references to building societies in Gibraltar, because Gibraltar law has required them to be wound up or converted into companies. It also removes certain transitional provisions that are no longer relevant.
Gibraltar legislation can be obtained from www.gibraltarlaws.gov.gi.
An impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sectors is foreseen.
