(8)In this section any reference to making a final decision, in relation to an order, is a reference to deciding whether to make the order or what modification (if any) ought to be made.

Annotations are categorised by annotation type, such as F-notes for textual amendments and I-notes for commencement information (a full list can be found in the Editorial Practice Guide). Each annotation is identified by a sequential reference number. For F-notes, M-notes and X-notes, the number also appears in bold superscript at the relevant location in the text. All annotations contain links to the affecting legislation.Amendments (Textual)F7Word repealed by Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973 (c. 65), s. 172(2)Modifications etc. (not altering text)C71Ss. 222—225 amended by Mineral Workings Act 1951 (c. 60, SIF 86), s. 32 as substituted by Roads (Scotland) Act 1984 (c. 54, SIF 108), 156(1), Sch. 9 para. 41(3) (with s. 128(1))C72S. 220, 222–225 applied by Roads (Scotland) Act 1984 (c. 54, SIF 108), s. 134 (with s. 128(1))C73Ss. 214–227, 266(6)(b), 275(2), Sch. 8 modified by Gas Act 1986 (c. 44, SIF 44:2), s. 67(1)(3), Sch. 7 para. 2(9)(f) (with Sch. 8 para. 33)Ss. 214-227 modified (1.3.1996) by 1995 c. 45, s. 16(1), Sch. 4 para. 2(10)(d); S.I. 1996/218, art. 2C74S. 108(2), 117–119, 121, 138, 154(3), 170–172, 175, 181, 195(6), 198(3), 199(2), 202(3), 205, 211, 212, 214, 216–230, 233(7), 242, 259, 266(6)(b), 275(2), Sch. 8, Sch. 17 para. 1–3, Sch. 18 extended by Gas Act 1986 (c. 44, SIF 44:2), s. 67(1)(3), Sch. 7 para. 2(1)(xxv) (with Sch. 8 para. 33)Ss. 214, 216-230 extended (1.3.1996) by 1995 c. 45, s. 16(1), Sch. 4 para. 2(1)(xix); S.I. 1996/218, art. 2C75Ss. 214–227, 266(6)(b), 275(2), Sch. 8 modified by Electricity Act 1989 (c. 29, SIF 44:1), s. 112(1), Sch. 16 para. 3(2)(e) (with s. 112(3), Sch. 17 paras. 33, 35(1))C76S. 202(3), 205, 211, 212, 214–230, 233(7), 242, 266(6)(b), 275(2), Sch. 8, Sch. 17 paras. 1–3 amended by Electricity Act 1989 (c. 29, SIF 44:1), s. 112(1), Sch. 16 para. 1(1)(xxiii) (with s. 112(3), Sch. 17 paras. 33, 35(1))C77S. 225 extended by Civil Aviation Act 1982 (c. 16), Sch. 2 para. 4; amended by British Telecommunications Act 1981 (c. 38), Sch. 3 para. 12 and Civil Aviation Act 1982 (c. 16), s. 51, Sch. 2 para. 5, Sch. 10 paras. 4, 8Previous: CrossheadingNext: CrossheadingBack to topOptions/HelpPrint OptionsPrint The Whole ActPDF The Whole ActWeb page The Whole ActPrint The Whole PartPDF The Whole PartWeb page The Whole PartPrint This Cross Heading onlyPDF This Cross Heading onlyWeb page This Cross Heading onlyYou have chosen to open The Whole ActThe Whole Act you have selected contains over 200 provisions and might take some time to download.
