EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order revokes the Indication of Prices (Beds) Order 1978 (S.I. 1978/1716, amended by S.I. 1979/364). The Indication of Prices (Beds) Order 1978 prohibited any person who indicated that a bed was or may be for sale by him from indicating a price at which that bed may be sold by another person. Some of its provisions lapsed following repeal, by the Competition Act 1980 (c.21), of the Price Commission Act 1977 (c.33) under which such provisions were made.

A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen. The Explanatory Memorandum which accompanies this instrument is available alongside the instrument on www.legislation.gov.uk.
