(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order transfers a small area from the county of Hertfordshire and district of North Hertfordshire to the county of Bedfordshire and borough of Luton. Consequential changes to a parish and to local government electoral areas are made.
The map forming part of this note (page 4) gives a general guide to the areas affected. Prints of the detailed boundary map (described in article 2) may be inspected at all reasonable times at the offices of the borough and district councils and at the office of the Secretary of State for the Environment, 2 Marsham Street, London SW1P 3EB.
The area transferred has approximately an area of 5·54 hectares, a rateable value of £250, and no population.
The Local Government Area Changes Regulations 1976 (S.I. 1976/246, amended by S.I. 1978/247) contain general provisions regarding the effect of orders such as this one.
