Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These regulations amend the name of one of the counties in the schedule to the Employment Zones Regulations (as substituted by the Employment Zones (Amendment) Regulations 2000). The county was given the name of “Caernarfonshire and Merionethshire” by Schedule 4 to the Local Government Act 1972 (as substituted by the Local Government (Wales) Act 1994) but the county subsequently passed a resolution pursuant to section 74 of the Local Government Act 1972 to change its name to “Gwynedd”. The original name was included in the schedule by error.
