Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)

The present Order amends the Local Government Act 1988 (Defined Activities) (Housing Management) (Exemptions) (Wales) Order 1997 (S.I. 1997/934) (as amended by S.I. 1997/1701 and S.I. 1997/2648) (“the principal Order”).

Article 2 amends article 5(3) of the principal Order, in respect of the tenant management organisation exemption, to provide that that exemption will now end by 1st October 2005.

Article 3 makes a consequential revocation of the Local Government Act 1988 (Defined Activities) (Housing Management) (Exemptions) (Wales) (Amendment) Order 1997 (S.I. [1997/1701](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/1997/1701)).
