Schedule 3 – Payments and Pensions: Minor and consequential amendments
185.Makes amendments of a technical nature to existing legislation to reflect the provision introduced in Part 8 of the Measure. For example, in relation to the Local Government Act 1972, School Standards and Framework Act 1998, Education Act 2002 and Education and Skills Act 2008, for those references that relate to allowances payable under the current legislation, there is a need to substitute references to payments to members under the provisions of the Measure.
186.Whilst the majority of subsections in section 18 of the Local Government and Housing Act 1989 are to be repealed, an amendment is required to section 18 (3A) to retain the power of the Welsh Ministers to make regulations enabling local authorities, i.e., county and county borough councils, to determine gratuities in relation to members.
