Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

Regulation 3(3) of the Local Government Act 1988 (Defined Activities) (Competition) (Wales) Regulations 1988 requires county councils who wish to carry out refuse collection work to compete for such work. Regulation 3(4) of the Regulations requires district councils who wish to carry out school and welfare catering work to compete for such work. It was intended that these provisions should apply only to work arising in Wales. These Variation Regulations vary the original Regulations so as to expressly provide for this.
