EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Street Works (Charges for Unreasonably Prolonged Occupation of the Highway) (England) Regulations 2009 to remove the provision contained in regulation 15(5) indicating 1st April 2009 as the date from which all notices required to be given under those Regulations are to be given using electronic communications. This clarifies that the requirement had effect from the date on which those Regulations came in to force, namely the 6th April 2009.

1991 c.22. Section 74 was amended by the Transport Act 2000 (c.38), sections 256 and 274, Schedule 31, Part V and by the Traffic Management Act 2004 (c.18), sections 40(4) and 52. The functions of the Secretary of State under sections 74, 97 and 104 are, so far as exercisable in relation to Wales, vested in the Welsh Ministers. Those functions were transferred to the National Assembly for Wales by the National Assembly for Wales (Transfer of Functions) Order 1999 (S.I. 1999/672), article 2, Schedule 1. By virtue of paragraphs 30 and 32 of Schedule 11 to the Government of Wales Act 2006 (c.32), they were transferred to the Welsh Ministers. Back [1]
