1(1)In the case of a fire authority constituted by a combination scheme, provision for the matters to which establishment schemes relate (hereafter in this Schedule referred to as " establishment matters ") or to which management schemes relate (hereafter in this Schedule referred to as " management matters ") shall be made by the combination scheme and not by an establishment scheme or management scheme, as the case may be, and may be varied or revoked accordingly:
Provided that in the case of an authority constituted by a combination scheme so as to become a fire authority on the appointed day, provision for management matters may be made either in the scheme constituting the authority or by the variation of that scheme as soon as may be after the appointed day.
(2)In this Schedule references to a fire authority constituted by a combination scheme shall be construed, in relation to management matters, as references to such an authority the area of which consists of or includes one or more counties other than the County of London.
(3)Without prejudice to any power to vary a combination scheme, subsection (5) of section nineteen and subsections (3) and (7) of section twenty of this Act shall not apply in relation to a fire authority constituted by a combination scheme.
