(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order revokes the byelaws specified in the Schedule to this Order, which were made in exercise of the powers conferred on parish councils by section 8(1)(d) of the Local Government Act 1894 (56 and 57 Vict. c. 73). The relevant part of that section was repealed by section 272(1) of, and Schedule 30 to, the Local Government Act 1972 but the byelaws were continued in force, notwithstanding that repeal, by virtue of section 262(1) of the 1972 Act. The byelaws are revoked as being substantially superseded by byelaws made under other enactments.
