(1)

1993 c. 43. In section 24(1) and (2) the words “appropriate designating authority” were substituted by the Railways Act 2005 (c. 14), Schedule 1, Part 1, paragraph 14(1) and (2). The term “appropriate designating authority” is defined in section 23(3) of the Railways Act 1993, as amended by the Railways Act 2005, Schedule 1, Part 1, paragraph 13(4)(a). There are amendments to section 143 which are not relevant to this Order.

(2)

2005 c. 14. Section 38(4) of the Railways Act 2005 provides that, where any Order made under section 49(2), (4) or (5) of the Railways Act 1993 was in force immediately before the commencement of that section, it has effect as if made under section 38. Section 49 of the Railways Act 1993 was repealed by the Railways Act 2005, section 59(6) and Schedule 13, Part 1. Section 38 of the Railways Act 2005 is therefore one of the enabling powers for the revocation of S.I. 1997/1531 and S.I. 2001/1768.

(3)

Following the repeal of section 47 of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 section 183 of the Equality Act 2010 is the enabling power for the revocation of S.I. 1999/2932 and S.I. 2005/395 and the amendment of S.I. 2001/3952, by virtue of S.I. 2010/2317, article 21(1) and Schedule 7.
