EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order commences certain provisions of the Localism Act 2011 relating to standards and police authorities.
Police authorities established under section 3 of the Police Act 1996 are to be abolished on the 22nd November 2012, to be replaced with police and crime commissioners established under section 1 of the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011 (c. 13).
Article 2 commences section 36(b) which repeals the reference to a police authority in paragraph (k) of section 27(6) (which has not been commenced), thereby removing police authorities in England and Wales established under section 3 of the Police Act 1996 from the standards regime established under the Localism Act 2011.
Paragraphs (b) and (c) of article 2 commence the amendments and repeals made by Schedule 4 and in Part 5 of Schedule 5 so far as they relate to police authorities.
Articles 3 to 6 make transitional, transitory and savings provisions in relation to England and Wales.
