DEREGULATION
Made
16th May 1996
Coming into force
17th May 1996
Whereas-
(a)the Secretary of State is of the opinion that certain provisions of the Licensing Act 1964(1) impose burdens affecting persons in the carrying on of a trade, business, profession or otherwise and that by repealing the provisions concerned it is possible to remove or reduce the burdens without removing any necessary protection;
(b)the Secretary of State has consulted such organisations as appear to him to be representative of interests substantially affected by his proposals and such other persons as he considers appropriate;
(c)it appears to the Secretary of State that it is appropriate, following that consultation, to proceed with the making of this Order;
(d)a document setting out the Secretary of State's proposals has been laid before Parliament in accordance with section 3 of the Deregulation and Contracting Out Act 1994(2) and the period for parliamentary consideration under section 4 of the Act has expired;
(e)a draft of this Order has been laid before Parliament and has been approved by resolution of each House of Parliament.
Now, therefore, the Secretary of State, in exercise of the powers conferred on him by section 1 of the Deregulation and Contracting Out Act 1994, hereby makes the following Order:
1.-(1) This Order may be cited as the Deregulation (Long Pull) Order 1996 and shall come into force on the day after the day on which it is made.
(2) This Order does not extend to Scotland or Northern Ireland.
2. Section 165 of the Licensing Act 1964 is hereby repealed.
