Commentary on Sections

Section 6: short title, commencement and extent

39.Subsection (2) provides for the Act to be commenced by one or more Treasury orders. Subsection (3) provides that the Act extends to the whole of the United Kingdom. However, as the Industrial and Provident Societies Act 1965 does not extend to Northern Ireland, any modifications to that Act made under section 3 will not extend there.
