(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the Government Resources and Accounts Act 2000 (Estimates and Accounts) Order 2016 (S.I. 2016/323) (“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.
A new Schedule is substituted for the Schedule to the principal Order. The effect of this amendment is that additional bodies are designated, the names of some bodies are changed, some bodies are no longer designated and certain named government departments are changed to reflect machinery of government changes.
The designations have effect for the financial year which ends on 31st March 2017.
This Order will have no effect on the costs of business or the voluntary sector. For that reason no impact assessment has been produced.
