  "long_title": "Section 6(3) of the Local Government Act 1988 enables the Secretary of State to require that an authority mentioned in section 1(1) of the Act (“a defined authority”) may carry out functional work falling within an activity listed in section 2(2) and described in Schedule 1 to the Act (“a defined activity”), only after subjecting the work to competition. The Local Government Act 1988 (Competition in Sports and Leisure Facilities) Order 1989 (S.I. 1989/2488) added the managing of sports and leisure facilities to the activities listed in section 2(2) and described in Schedule 1 to the Act. These Regulations specify the dates from which and the circumstances in which those bodies who are defined authorities (referred to in the Regulations as “specified authorities”) in Wales may not conduct the management of sports and leisure facilities (“the defined activity”) without first subjecting them to competition.",
