Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order continues (in articles 3 and 4) the constitution of the District Health Authorities originally constituted by the Orders revoked by article 7(1). To that extent, it is made as a consequence of the new provisions for membership of District Health Authorities under the National Health Service and Community Care Act 1990 (c. 19). The Order also abolishes the Bloomsbury Health Authority and the Islington Health Authority (article 5) and establishes a new District Health Authority to be known as the Bloomsbury and Islington Health Authority (article 6).
