Section 19 of the Food Safety Act 1990 ("the 1990 Act") authorises the creation of a system of registration of premises used or proposed to be used for the purposes of a food business. The Food Premises (Registration) Regulations 1991 (S.I. 1991/2825) have been made to provide such a system.
In consequence of the coming into force of section 19 of the 1990 Act, section 11 of the Middlesex County Council Act 1950 ("the 1950 Act") and section 9 of the Hereford City Council Act 1985 are no longer necessary. This Order modifies those Acts by omitting those provisions (articles 2 and 3) and makes consequential amendments to the 1950 Act (article 3) and to the Local Law (North West London Boroughs) Order 1965, which modified the 1950 Act in its application to the London Boroughs of Barnet, Brent, Enfield, Haringey, Harrow, Hillingdon and Hounslow (article 4).
