The Order revokes the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) (New Town of Cumbernauld) (Special Development) Order 1973 (S.I. 1973/1030). It also provides, notwithstanding such revocation, that any written authorisation for the carrying out of development as mentioned in article 3(2) and (3) of the 1973 Order shall have effect for a period of 5 years after the revocation of that Order.
