- Draft legislation
This is a draft item of legislation. This draft has since been made as a UK Statutory Instrument: The Housing and Regeneration Act 2008 (Consequential Provisions) Order 2008 No. 3002
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order makes amendments and modifications to, and repeals of, provisions in primary legislation that make reference to the Urban Regeneration Agency, the Commission for the New Towns, English Partnerships and the Housing Corporation. These amendments, modifications and repeals are in addition to those in the Housing and Regeneration Act 2008 itself and are consequential on the coming into force of provisions of that Act relating to the establishment of the Homes and Communities Agency, in particular, in relation to it being the successor to those bodies in relation to a number of their functions.
The amendments, modifications and repeals are subject to transitional and savings provisions, the main purpose of which is to ensure, as far as necessary, that anything done by the predecessor bodies is treated as done by the Homes and Communities Agency (or Welsh Ministers, as the case may be), and to ensure that anything being done by one of those bodies on the commencement date may be continued by the Homes and Communities Agency (or Welsh Ministers, as the case may be).

Original (As Enacted or Made): The original version of the legislation as it stood when it was enacted or made. No changes have been applied to the text.
