EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order amends the Government Resources and Accounts Act 2000 (Estimates and Accounts) Order 2011 (S.I. 2011/723) (“the principal Order”), which designates specified central government bodies in relation to named government departments for the purpose of those departments’ supply estimates and resource accounts. The effect of the amendments is that additional bodies are designated, the names of some designated bodies are changed and some bodies are no longer designated.

Article 2(11) of this Order inserts an additional table in the Schedule to the principal Order for the designation of bodies in relation to the Food Standards Agency.

The designations have effect for the financial year that ends on 31st March 2012.

An impact assessment has not been prepared for this instrument because no impact on the private or voluntary sector is foreseen.
