## Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order revokes the Orders in Council listed in the Schedule.
Those Orders specified offences under the laws of various countries which corresponded to certain offences specified in Schedule 1 to the Football Spectators Act 1989 (c. 37). Under section 22 of that Act, proceedings may be commenced before a magistrates’ court against a person who has been convicted of such an offence, with the result that a football banning order may be made against such a person. The Orders are being revoked because section 22 has fallen out of use, given that there are alternative routes to securing a banning order under the 1989 Act; in particular via section 14B, which allows for a banning order to be made where an individual has caused or contributed to violence or disorder abroad.
