(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order extends the Children (Allocation of Proceedings) Order 1991 to proceedings under section 30 of the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act 1990 (parental orders in favour of gamete donors). The effect of the Order is to require such proceedings to be commenced in a magistrates' court and to provide for them to be transferred to other courts in certain circumstances. The Order also amends Schedule 2 to the 1991 Order to provide that proceedings arising in the Burton-upon-Trent petty sessions area which are to be transferred to a care centre shall be transferred to Derby County Court instead of Stoke-on-Trent County Court.
1989 c. 41; paragraphs 1 and 2 of Schedule 11 were amended by the Child Support Act 1991 (c. 48), section 45(3) to (5).
