Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations are made under section 20(3) (in respect of local authorities in England) and section 20(4) (in respect of local authorities in Wales) of the Police and Justice Act 2006. The Regulations amend the Crime and Disorder (Overview and Scrutiny) Regulations 2009 (S.I. 2009/942) which make provision for the exercise of powers by crime and disorder committees of local authorities.

The amendment in regulation 2 provides for co-option of additional members onto crime and disorder committees. It amends regulation 3(4) of the 2009 Regulations to provide that the only persons who are excluded from co-option are executive members of the local authority (or authorities) of the committee.
