Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order makes incidental, consequential, transitional or supplementary provision in relation to orders (“section 17 orders”) already made under section 17 of the Local Government Act 1992 which effect structural and boundary changes in relation to local government areas in England.
Article 2(1) amends Schedule 2A to the Sheriffs Act 1887 which makes provision in respect of the meaning of “county”for the purposes of the Act and article 2(2) excludes, in the case of the appointment as high sheriff of Rutland of the person appointed as high sheriff of Leicestershire, a provision that a person shall not be appointed as sheriff of a county unless he has sufficient land in the county.
Section 130(1A) of the Reserve Forces Act 1980 (c. 9) (inserted by regulation 9 of S.I. 1995/1748) provides that, for the purposes of the provisions of that Act relating to the lieutenancies in England, “county”has the same meaning as in the Sheriffs Act 1887.
