EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order is made under section 1 of the Legislative and Regulatory Reform Act 2006 (c. 51). It repeals section 101(7) of the Local Government Act 1972 (c. 70) which imposes a prohibition on local authorities from delegating any of their functions under the Diseases of Animals Act 1950 (c. 36) to each other.

The Diseases of Animals Act 1950 was repealed and replaced by the Animal Health Act 1981 (c. 22), which consolidated historic animal health and welfare legislation. The animal health functions to which this Order refers at article 2(1)(a) are, therefore, the functions which local authorities must discharge under the Animal Health Act 1981.

This Order also repeals section 101(7A) of the Local Government Act 1972 (which provides a derogation from the prohibition in section 101(7) with respect to principal councils in Wales) and paragraph 26(2) of Schedule 15 to the Local Government (Wales) Act 1994 (c. 19) (which inserted section 101(7A)).

A full impact assessment has been produced for this instrument and placed in the library of each House of Parliament. Copies can be obtained from Defra (Agency Relationship Team), 17 Smith Square, London SW1P 3JR.

Asesiadau Effaith

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
