EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Order makes provision in connection with the reorganisation of magistrates' courts in outer London occasioned by the Local Government Act 1985.
Part II of the Order dissolves the four outer London magistrates' courts committees on 1st April 1986 when their functions are taken over by new magistrates' courts committees established under the Local Government (Magistrates' Courts etc.) Order 1985 (S.I. 1985/1383), and makes consequential provision as regards staff, including justices' clerks (articles 4 to 7 and Schedule 1), property (article 8) and associated costs (article 9).
Part III makes provision consequential on the reorganisation of petty sessions area boundaries in outer London by the Local Government Act 1985. In particular, licences granted and process issued by justices of the peace prior to the reorganisation taking effect are saved (articles 11 and 12). Provision is also made to enable orders for the periodical payment of money to a person through a justices' clerk and community service, probation and supervision orders to be amended where the person concerned does not reside in the petty sessions area for which the clerk through whom the payments fall to be made from 1st April 1986 acts or, in the case of community service, probation and supervision orders, does not reside in the petty sessions area whose justices take over the courts' powers and functions in relation to the order from 1st April 1986 (articles 13 and 14).
