(This note is not part of the Order)
In England, Wales and Northern Ireland, only “designated” Ministers and departments can exercise the powers in section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 (c. 68) to make orders, rules, regulations and schemes. This is one of a series of Orders by which Ministers and departments are designated for the purposes of section 2(2) in relation to different subject areas.
Article 2 designates the Secretary of State, the Lord President of the Council and the Lord Privy Seal in relation to the European Parliament.
Article 3 designates the Secretary of State and the Lord President of the Council in relation to local elections.
Article 4 provides that a new designation does not restrict the scope of designations in other Orders and allows Ministers and departments designated in relation to the same matters to legislate jointly as well as individually.
Article 5 revokes two existing designations which are superseded by this Order.
