Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order brings into force on 12th October 2000 those provisions of the Carriage by Air and Road Act 1979 specified in the Schedule to the extent there stated. This principally provides for section 4A to be inserted into the Carriage by Air (Supplementary Provisions) Act 1962f1. Section 4A provides for section 8A of the Carriage by Air Act 1961 to have effect in relation to a revision of the Convention set out in the Schedule to the 1962 Act as it has effect in relation to a revision of the Convention set out in Schedule 1 to the Act of 1961. This enables an Order in Council to be made to alter the Act of 1962 in consequence of any revision of the Convention set out in the Schedule to that Act.
