Where an order is made under section 182(4) bringing into force the repeal of sections 1 to 7 of the 1988 Act (coroners, coroners’ districts and deputy coroners), the Lord Chancellor must make an order under paragraph 1 of Schedule 2—
a
specifying as a coroner area the area of each coroner’s district immediately before the repeal, and
b
coming into force at the same time as the repeal.
The order made by virtue of this sub-paragraph is referred to in this Schedule as the “transitional order”.
2
Paragraph 1(2) of Schedule 2 does not apply to the coroner areas specified in the transitional order.
3
The transitional order must specify, as the name of each coroner area, the name by which the corresponding coroner’s district was known (but ending “coroner area” instead of “coroner’s district”).
4
The transitional order must, in relation to each coroner area, contain the provision that may be made under paragraph 2(1)(b) of Schedule 3 (minimum number of assistant coroners).
