(1)

1996 c. 16. Amended by section 129 of the Police Act 1997 (c. 50), S.I. 1997/1844, 1845, 1846, 1847, 1849, 1850, 1855, 1857 and 2009/119.

(2)

The functions of a police and crime commissioner in respect of Greater Manchester have been transferred to the Mayor of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority by S.I 2017/470. The effect of paragraph 21 of Schedule 2 to S.I. 2017/470, (there are amending instruments to Schedule 2 but none are relevant), is to disapply certain provisions in the 2011 Act relating to the election of a police and crime commissioner as they would have applied in respect of the Mayor. Relevant to this Order is the disapplication of section 54 of the 2011 Act by paragraph 21(b) of Schedule 2 to S.I. 2017/470 which removes the requirement to designate a police returning officer in respect of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority.
