Once an order is made under that section in relation to a public place in their area, the police powers under section 12 of the Act (to require a person not to consume intoxicating liquor and to surrender opened containers of such liquor) will be available.\nRegulations 3 and 4 set out the consultation requirements before making an order. Regulations 5 to 9 set out the publicity requirements before and after making an order. Regulation 10 adds the power to make an order under section 13(2) to those functions of a local authority in England which are not to be the responsibility of the executive.",
