(This note is not part of the Order)
The Local Government Act 1988 (Direct Service Organisations) (Accounts etc.) (Extension) (Wales) Order 1997 (S.I. 1997/528) ("the principal Order") provided that section 52(3) of the Local Government (Wales) Act 1994 (application of Part I of the Local Government Act 1988 during transitional period) was to have effect as if the date mentioned in the definition of "exempting order" in that subsection were 30th September 1997 instead of 1st April 1997. The present Order amends the principal Order to substitute the date of 31st May 1999 for that of 30th September 1997. This is in consequence of the further exemption during local government reorganisation in Wales for Welsh authorities from the competitive tendering requirements under Part I of the Local Government Act 1988 (competition) made under the Local Government Act 1988 (Defined Activities) (Exemptions) (Wales) (Amendment) Order 1997 (S.I. 1997/1698).
