Part 2Transitional and saving provisions

7Other annual reports

1

Nothing in any reporting provision requires a body or officeholder to lay before the Parliament an annual or general report in respect only of a transitional part of a reporting period.

2

In sub-paragraph (1)—

  • “reporting provision” means a provision—

    1. a

      of an Act specified in section 29 (other than the Parliamentary Standards Act), and

    2. b

      having effect before the coming into force of this schedule in relation to annual or general reports,

  • “transitional part of a reporting period”, in relation to a reporting provision, is any part of any reporting period for the purposes of that provision which begins on or after 2 April 2010 and ends on or before 31 March 2011.

3

Instead, the information and other matters which would have been contained in such a report are to be included in the annual report by the body or officeholder for the reporting year beginning on 1 April 2011.
