LOCAL GOVERNMENT, ENGLAND

Part 6 of the Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Act 2009 (c. 20) makes provision for the establishment of combined authorities for two or more local government areas. That Act was amended by the Cities and Local Government Devolution Act 2016 (c. 1) to provide for elected mayors for combined authorities. This Order makes provision for the conduct of elections for combined authority mayors. The Order is modelled on the Local Authorities (Mayoral Elections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 (S.I. 2007/1024 as amended).
