Coming into force in accordance with article 1
The Secretary of State makes this Order in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 2(1) and (4), 3(1), (2), (3)(a) to (g) and (6) to (9), 4(4) and 60(2) of the Fire and Rescue Services Act 2004(1).
It appears to the Secretary of State, in accordance with section 2(2)(a) of the Fire and Rescue Services Act 2004, that it is in the interests of economy, efficiency and effectiveness that there should be a single fire and rescue authority for the combined area of the Hampshire Fire and Rescue Authority and the Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Authority.
This Order is made to give effect to a draft scheme submitted to the Secretary of State by Hampshire Fire and Rescue Authority and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Authority and includes a modification to the draft scheme which seems appropriate to the Secretary of State after consulting those authorities.
2004 c. 21; section 3(6) to (9) was inserted by section 7(10) and (12) of the Policing and Crime Act 2017 (c. 3).
