  "text": "(This note is not part of the Order)\nThis Order makes amendments to provisions in secondary legislation that make reference to the Urban Regeneration Agency, the Commission for the New Towns and the Housing Corporation. These amendments are in addition to those in the Housing and Regeneration Act 2008 itself and most are consequential on the coming into force of provisions of that Act relating to the establishment of the Homes and Communities Agency, in particular, in relation to functions of those bodies being transferred to the Agency. The remainder are consequential on the coming into force of provisions of that Act relating to the establishment of the Regulator of Social Housing.\nThe amendments are subject to transitional and saving provisions, the purpose of which is to ensure, as far as necessary, that anything done by the predecessor bodies is treated as done by the Homes and Communities Agency (or Welsh Ministers, as the case may be), and to ensure that anything being done by one of those bodies immediately before the commencement date may be continued by the Homes and Communities Agency (or Welsh Ministers, as the case may be).",
