Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order amends the secondary legislation specified in the Schedule to the Order in consequence of the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (“the 1999 Act”).

Section 328 of the 1999 Act reconstitutes the London Fire and Civil Defence Authority (which was originally established under Part IV of the Local Government Act 1985) as the London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority (“the Fire etc Authority”). By the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (Commencement No. 5 and Appointment of Reconstitution Day) Order 2000 (S.I. 2000/1094 (C. 33)), 3rd July 2000 was appointed as the reconstitution day.

Section 328(5) of the 1999 Act provides that in construing any enactment (including secondary legislation), the Fire etc Authority shall be taken on and after the reconstitution day to be an authority established otherwise than under Part IV of the Local Government Act 1985.

This Order amends secondary legislation to provide for its application to the Fire etc Authority in cases where, but for this Order, the secondary legislation would have ceased to apply by virtue of section 328(5) of the 1999 Act.
