EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

Section 382 of the Armed Forces Act 2006 (“ the 2006 Act”) provides that the 2006 Act will expire at the end of one year beginning with the day on which the Armed Forces Act 2021 (“ the 2021 Act”) was passed, unless continued in force by Order in Council in accordance with that section. The 2021 Act was passed on 15th December 2021 and the 2006 Act was therefore due to expire at the end of 14th December 2022. This Order provides for the continuation of the 2006 Act until the end of 14th December 2023.

2006 c. 52; section 382 was substituted by section 1 of the Armed Forces Act 2021 (c. 35).

Section 378(1) of, and paragraph 149 of Schedule 16 to, the Armed Forces Act 2006 were extended to the Channel Islands by S.I. 2009/3215and S.I. 2010/765.
