# The District of Adur (Scheme for Elections of Specified Council) Order 2003, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Order)

Elections are to be held in 2004 and biennially thereafter. One half (or as nearly as may be) of the councillors are elected in each year in which the elections are held (article 3).
Article 4 amends and revokes provisions in the District of Adur (Electoral Changes) Order 2002 which have been superseded by the provisions of this Order.
