Explanatory note

This Order amends the Redundancy Payments (Local Government) (Modification) Order 1983 as previously amended by the Redundancy Payments (Local Government) (Modification) (Amendment) Orders 1985, 1988, 1989 and 1990. Those Orders modified certain redundancy payments provisions of the Employment Protection (Consolidation) Act 1978 (c. 44) in their application to persons employed in relevant local government service so that their employment in the service is to be treated as if it were continuous for the purposes of those provisions. This Order adds the City Literary Institute to the list of employers to whose employees the 1983 Order as amended applies.
