Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)

Section 163 of the Greater London Authority Act 1999 prohibits Transport for London from disposing of any freehold interest in operational land without the consent of the Secretary of State. Under section 164 of that Act, Transport for London is required to ensure that none of its subsidiaries do anything which Transport for London has no power to do, (including anything which Transport for London has no power to do because the consent of the Secretary of State has not been obtained).

The land at Knightsbridge Station which is the subject of this Order forms part of the northern entrance to the station, and is currently operational land as defined in section 163(8) of the said Act. It is vested in London Underground Limited, a subsidiary of Transport for London, and its disposal will be made by that company.

By this Order the Secretary of State gives consent to Transport for London for the disposal of the land.

A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this Order as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
