Paragraph 6 Local Government Act 1972I1

Section 101 of LGA 1972 (arrangements for discharge of functions by local authorities) is amended in accordance with this paragraph.

For subsection (1D) substitute—

“(1D)

A combined authority may not arrange for the discharge of a function under subsection (1) if, or to the extent that, the function is a mayoral function of a mayor for the area of the authority unless a mayor for the area of the authority has given the authority written consent for the function to be so discharged.

(1DA)

If a mayor for the area of the authority notifies the authority of withdrawal of the consent (whether the consent was given by that mayor or a predecessor), the arrangements made under subsection (1) for the discharge of the function cease to have effect; but that does not affect anything already done under the arrangements.”

For subsection (1F) substitute—

“(1F)

A combined county authority may not arrange for the discharge of a function under subsection (1) if, or to the extent that, the function is a mayoral function of a mayor for the area of the authority unless a mayor for the area of the authority has given the authority written consent for the function to be so discharged.

(1FA)

If a mayor for the area of the authority notifies the authority of withdrawal of the consent (whether the consent was given by that mayor or a predecessor), the arrangements made under subsection (1) for the discharge of the function cease to have effect; but that does not affect anything already done under the arrangements.”
