  "text": "(This note is not part of these Regulations)\nThese Regulations replace on 1st April 1994 the Local Government (Direct Labour Organisations) (Competition) Regulations 1989 so far as they apply to local authorities in Wales. This is in recognition of the additional administrative work which local government reorganisation in Wales will place upon Welsh local authorities.\nUnder these Regulations the requirements imposed by the Act will continue to apply to any works contract where the value of any work attributable to works of construction exceeds £500,000 (regulations 4 and 5), and to any functional work, where the estimated cost of that job, which is attributable to works of construction, exceeds £500,000 (regulation 8).\nRegulation 7 provides an exemption for works contracts, which would otherwise be subject to the requirements imposed by the Act, where it is emergency work.\nRegulation 9 similarly provides an exemption for functional work if it is emergency work. Emergency work for the purpose of the Regulations is defined in regulation 2.",
