Children, Schools and Families Act 2010

Territorial Extent and Application

87.With one exception, the Act extends to England and Wales only, though much of the Act applies only in England. A technical amendment is made to the law of Northern Ireland as a result of other changes made by Part 2 of the Act, but the effect of the amendment is simply to maintain the current position for Northern Ireland.

88.The Act does not extend to Scotland.

Territorial Application: Wales

89.Section 9 provides for a LSCB in Wales to be able to require a person or body to supply information to it. Provision to this effect would be within the legislative competence of the National Assembly for Wales. Legislative consent from the National Assembly for Wales for this provision was therefore obtained.

90.Section 29(3) provides that section 9 comes into force on whatever day the Welsh Ministers appoint by order.
