Paragraph 7
191.This makes changes to section 16A(2) (meaning of “relevant relationship” in section 16A). Sub-paragraph (a) ensures that the relationships between locally-electable authorities and their members are not covered by section 16A (relationships which have come to an end) because that section, which was inserted by the Amendment Regulations, relates to the provisions in Part 2 of the DDA governing the employment field and has no application to the relationships governed by new sections 15A to 15C (councillors and members of the Greater London Authority).
192.Sub-paragraph (b) makes changes to section 16A(2)(b) in consequence of the new definition of “employment services”, applying to the whole of the DDA, to be inserted by paragraph 34(2) into section 68(1) of the DDA.
