Explanatory note

This Order amends the Highway Litter Clearance and Cleaning (Transfer of Responsibility) (England) Order 2009 to correct some drafting errors.

This Order inserts further wording into column 2 of the Schedule to that Order, at the third, fifth, sixth and fourteenth items. This is to provide clarity as to the descriptions of the parts of the highways for which responsibility for the discharge of the litter clearance and cleaning duties is transferred to the Secretary of State for Transport.

An impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the costs of the private, public or voluntary sector is foreseen.

The Explanatory Memorandum for this Order is available alongside the instrument on the OPSI website (www.opsi.gov.uk).
