EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

The Local Transport Act 2008 removed the link between traffic commissioners and traffic areas and created the office of senior traffic commissioner. This Order makes consequential and supplementary amendments to primary and subordinate legislation that are consistent with these changes.

A full impact assessment of the effect that the amendments will have on the costs of business and the voluntary sector is available from the Operator Licensing and Roadworthiness Division at the Department for Transport, Great Minster House, 33 Horseferry Road, London, SW1P 4DR and from the Department’s website at http:www.dft.gov.uk/consultations/dft-2011-11. It is also published with the Explanatory Memorandum alongside this instrument on www.legislation.gov.uk
