Changes to Legislation

Changes and effects yet to be applied by the editorial team are only applicable when viewing the latest version or prospective version of legislation. They are therefore not accessible when viewing legislation as at a specific point in time. To view the ‘Changes to Legislation’ information for this provision return to the latest version view using the options provided in the ‘What Version’ box above.

13(1)Subject to this paragraph, the provisions of paragraphs 10 to 12 of this Schedule apply to a reference—U.K.

(a)to any of the matters mentioned in those provisions, whatever the terms used in that reference; and

(b)to any other matter which was to be construed as a reference to any of those matters by virtue of an enactment repealed by the Representation of the M1People Act 1948.

(2)Those provisions so far as they relate to this Act or any other Act passed after that Act of 1948 do not apply where the context otherwise requires.

(3)Those provisions so far as they relate to Acts passed before that Act of 1948 may be excluded in whole or in part by an order of the Secretary of State in any particular case where they appear to him to be inappropriate.

(4) That order may make such change in the law which this Act reproduces from the Representation of the M2People Act 1949 as might have been made before its commencement under paragraph 8(1)(c) of Part I of Schedule 10 to that Act of 1948.

(5)The provisions of paragraphs 10 to 12 may be supplemented by an order made by the Secretary of State in relation to an Act passed previous to the Representation of the M3People Act 1948—

(a)where, in any particular case, such an order appears to him necessary for harmonising the previous Act with the provisions of this Act; and

(b)to the extent that the provisions of this Act reenact such provisionsof the Representation of the People Act 1949 as re-enacted provisions of that Act of 1948.

(6)A power conferred by this paragraph to make an order shall be exercisable by statutory instrument, and any such instrument shall be subject to annulment by resolution of either House of Parliament.

(7)Nothing in paragraphs 10 to 12 shall be taken to prejudice the operation in relation to this Act of any provision of the M4Interpretation Act 1978 as to repeals.
