Part 7: Multi-Area Agreements
Section 133 - Preparation of revision proposal
301.This section places equivalent duties on the responsible authority to consult and co-operate and have regard to guidance, and on other local and partner authorities to co-operate and have regard to guidance, when preparing a revision proposal as is placed on them when they are preparing a draft multi-area agreement by section 126.
302.Where the proposal is to enlarge the area covered by the agreement, the definition of the “agreement area” in subsection (1)(a) and the reference to the agreement area in subsections (2) and (4) make it clear that it is all local authorities in the enlarged area that must be consulted and co-operated with by the responsible authority and who must, in turn, co-operate with the responsible authority.
