Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order confirms with modifications a Scheme (“the present Scheme”) submitted by the National Rivers Authority for the reconstitution of the River Ouzel Internal Drainage Board. That Board was formerly constituted by the Scheme confirmed by the Great Ouse River Board (River Ouzel Internal Drainage District) Order 1952 (S. I.1952/1244, 1245) as amended.
The principal change made by the present Scheme is a reduction in the number of elected members of the Board from 22 to 12.
