Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

The Order makes further amendments to article 11(4) of the Police and Magistrates' Courts Act 1994 (Commencement No. 5 and Transitional Provisions) Order 1994 (which has been amended by the Police and Magistrates' Courts Act 1994 (Commencement No. 5 and Transitional Provisions) (Amendment) Order 1995).

The first amendment made by this Order refers to the increase in the council's credit ceiling by virtue of the use of supplementary credit approvals in place of the existing reference to the amounts of all supplementary credit approvals used by the council. The latter would include approvals in respect of (for example) some leases relating to land and buildings which are disregarded in calculating a council's credit ceiling.

The second amendment allows regard to be had to all credit approvals issued in respect of the financial year ending on 31st March 1995 (as well as those years in 1991 to 1994). In respect of that financial year article 11(4) as originally drafted had a cut-off date of 31st December 1994.
