Section 142 Directions to Democracy and Boundary Commission CymruF12I1I2
The Welsh Ministers may direct the F1Democracy and Boundary Commission Cymru that it must perform its payment and pension functions in relation to—
the shadow council for a new principal area established under merger regulations or restructuring regulations, and
the principal council for that area, for the financial year in which the transfer date falls.
Where F8Part 5A of the 2013 Act applies by virtue of subsection (3)—
the shadow council is a relevant authority for the purposes of that Part,
the Panel may exercise its functions under Part 5A of the 2013 Act in relation to the principal council for the new principal area before the council has been established (including by way of imposing a requirement to which the council will be subject once it is established); accordingly, for those purposes that Part is to be read as if the council is, before it is established, a relevant authority,
where the transfer date does not fall on 1 April, the references in F9section 69A to a financial year include a reference to part of the financial year in which the transfer date falls,
