# The Agricultural Wages Committees (Areas) Order 1974, Note: Explanatory note


This Order establishes new agricultural wages committees on 1st April 1974 to conform to the counties set up by the Local Government Act 1972. In some cases committees are established for individual counties and in others for combinations of counties. Greater London is divided between the adjacent counties as before.
All old committees are dissolved by the Agricultural Wages Committees (Transitional Provisions) Order 1974, which also makes various consequential and transitional provisions, involving amendments to the Agricultural Wages Act 1948 and to subordinate legislation made under it.
