(This note is not part of these Rules)
These Rules amend the European Parliamentary Election Petition Rules 1979 by replacing the reference to -�Ordinance-� with -�Act-�. The reason for the change is that Gibraltar Ordinances were renamed as Acts under the Gibraltar Constitution Order 2006.
S.I. 2004/293. Regulation 120 was made under section 7 of the European Parliamentary Elections Act 2002 (c. 24) and section 23(2) of the European Parliament (Representation) Act 2003 (c. 7). Back [1]
S.I. 1979/521. There are relevant amendments in S.I. 2004/1415. Back [2]
Gibraltar Act No. 1953-17. Under section 33(5) and paragraph 2 of Annex 2 to the Gibraltar Constitution Order 2006 references to Ordinances have been changed to Acts. Back [3]
