Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order amends the Crossrail (Nomination) Order 2008 (article 2) and the Crossrail (Qualifying Authorities) Order 2008 (article 3).

The amendments insert provisions in each of those Orders requiring the Secretary of State to review their operation and effect, and to publish a report before 31st December 2021 and within every eight years after that.

Following a review it will fall to the Secretary of State to consider whether those Orders should remain as they are, or be revoked or be amended. A further instrument would be needed to revoke the Orders or to amend them.

A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sectors is foreseen.
