Commentary on Sections

Section 95: LGBC for England: changes to facilitate efficient administration

436.This section amends the governance arrangements for the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (“LGBCE”) set out in Schedule 1 to the Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Act 2009. That Act provides that the functions of the Speaker’s Committee include overseeing the procedure for the selection of the Chair of the LGBCE and examining the estimates and five-year plans of the LGBCE.

437.Subsection (2) enables the LGBCE to appoint up to two independent members to its audit committee. At present, members of any committees must be Commissioners.

438.Currently, there is a requirement for the LGBCE to produce a five-year plan annually and the Comptroller and Auditor General (the National Audit Office) to carry out an annual audit of the Commission’s activities, which is reported to the Speaker’s Committee.

439.Subsections (4) and (5) amend this requirement so that the LGBCE is required to produce a five-year plan in respect of the first year of a new Parliament and subsequently as required by the Speaker’s Committee.

440.Subsection (6) requires the National Audit Office to carry out an audit and to provide a report to accompany any five-year plan, rather than annually.

441.The amendments form part of the law of England and Wales.

442.The section comes into force on a day to be appointed by the Secretary of State in a commencement order.

Nodiadau Esboniadol

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.

Asesiadau Effaith

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
