Regulation 2 brings into force on 29th September 2022 specified sections of the Act.
Section 94 amends section 37 of the Land Drainage Act 1991 (c. 59) to provide the Secretary of State with the power to make regulations that establish the valuation calculation for the value of other land in an internal drainage district in England.
Section 96 is commenced so far as it relates to internal drainage districts which are wholly or mainly in England.
