Article 3 of this Order revokes article 3(1) of the New Opportunities Fund (Specification of Initiatives) Order 1999 (S.I. 1999/996), which is no longer needed because it specifies an initiative for the prevention, detection, diagnosis and treatment of cancer and the provision of palliative care and associated services that is now included within the provision made in article 2(4) and (5) of this Order. Otherwise, the initiatives in this Order are in addition to those specified in that Order of 1999 and the New Opportunities Fund (Specification of Initiatives) Order 1998 (S.I. 1998/1598).
