Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
Part 1A of the Local Government Act 2000 provides that the functions of a local authority in England operating executive arrangements (in the form of an elected mayor and cabinet, or a leader and cabinet) must be discharged by the executive unless those functions are specified not to be the responsibility of the authority’s executive by virtue of regulations made under section 9D.
The Local Authorities (Functions and Responsibilities) (England) Regulations 2000 (S.I. 2000/2853) (“the 2000 Regulations”) specify functions that are not to be the responsibility of an authority’s executive or are to be the responsibility of such an executive only to a limited extent or only in specified circumstances.
These Regulations amend Schedule 1 to the 2000 Regulations in respect of the existing functions exercised by authorities under the Licensing Act 2003 and new functions exercised by authorities in relation to the late night levy requirements under Chapter 2 of Part 2 of the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011.
No impact assessment has been prepared in relation to these Regulations as they do not have an impact on business or charities, and have no impact on the public sector beyond that of the 2000 Regulations which they amend.
