Abstract

This Order repeals section 101(7) of the Local Government Act 1972 (c. 70) which imposes a prohibition on local authorities from delegating any of their functions under the Diseases of Animals Act 1950 (c. 36) to each other. The Diseases of Animals Act 1950 was repealed and replaced by the Animal Health Act 1981. The animal health functions to which this Order refers at are, therefore, the functions which local authorities must discharge under the Animal Health Act 1981.
