LOCAL GOVERNMENT, WALES

These Regulations re-enact Regulations of the same name made in 2004 (S.I. 2004/870 (W.85)) (“the 2004 Regulations”), with necessary amendments, to make provision for the conduct of referendums to be held under section 27 of the Local Government Act 2000 (c. 22) (“the 2000 Act”), or by virtue of regulations or an order made under any provision of Part II of the 2000 Act. These Regulations apply in relation to Wales. The referendums will relate to the question of whether a county or county borough council should adopt executive arrangements that include a mayor and cabinet executive, a mayor and council manager executive or a leader and cabinet executive. The Regulations also prescribe certain forms for use at a referendum under the Welsh Language Act 1993.
