Explanatory note

This note is not part of the order, but is intended to indicate its general effect.

This order brings section 3 and most of Schedules 1 to 32 of the Secondary Legislation Act 2021 (the Act) into force on 28 October 2021. The Act is a companion to the Legislation Act 2019 and amends all Acts that empower the making of secondary legislation to align them with that Act.

The items in Schedules 1 to 32 listed in the Schedule of this order are not commenced because the amendments they would make have been overtaken by other recently made legislation. They will be repealed by section 2(3) of the Act without coming into force.

Sections 1, 2, 4, and 6 and Schedules 33, 34, and 35 of the Act have previously come into force.

Section 5 and Schedule 36 of the Act will be brought into force at a later date.

Issued under the authority of the Legislation Act 2012.

Date of notification in Gazette: 16 September 2021.
