This Order amends Part 2 of Schedule 2 to the Redundancy Payments (Continuity of Employment in Local Government, etc) (Modification) Order 1999 (“the principal Order”). Police authorities established under section 3 of the Police Act 1996, and the Metropolitan Police Authority established under section 5B of that Act, are added to section 6 of that Part (police, fire and civil defence). Those bodies were abolished by the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011 and replaced by police and crime commissioners and the Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime, respectively.
