(This note is not part of the Order)
Section 76(3) of the Road Traffic Act 1991 provides that certain statutory provisions creating criminal offences for the contravention of parking restrictions are to cease to have effect in a special parking area, while the order under section 76(1) designating the area is in force. This Order amends section 76(3) by adding to the last of decriminalised parking contraventions.
i.e. the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 (c. 27). Section 14 was substituted by the Road Traffic (Temporary Provisions) Act 1991 (c. 26), Schedule 1. Section 35 was amended by the Road Traffic (Consequential Provisions) Act 1988 (c. 54), Schedule 1, Part I; by section 1 of the Parking Act 1989 (c. 16); and by the Road Traffic Act 1991, section 44(2), Schedule 8. Section 35A was inserted by the Parking Act 1989, section 2. Section 61(1) was amended by the Local Government Act 1985 (c. 51), Schedule 5, paragraph 4(25).
