The repeals made by this Act shall not affect anything saved by virtue of sub-paragraph (2) of paragraph 13 of Schedule 26 to the 1989 Act (saving for certain appeals and references); but any determination made after commencement by virtue of that sub-paragraph under an enactment repealed by this Act shall have effect as if made by the Water Services Regulation Authority under the corresponding provision of the Water Industry Act 1991.
Notwithstanding its repeal by the 1989 Act, section 4 of the Public Utility Transfers and Water Charges Act 1988 (approval of metering trials schemes) shall apply, with the necessary modifications, to so much of any scheme made by a water undertaker under section 143 of the Water Industry Act 1991 as amends or revokes any scheme which— The repeal by this Act of sub-paragraph (6) of paragraph 16 of Schedule 26 to the 1989 Act shall not prevent any regulations which have effect in accordance with that sub-paragraph from continuing to have effect after commencement in accordance with paragraph 1 above as if the power in section 149 of the Water Industry Act 1991 included power to make or revoke any such provision as might have been made by virtue of section 5(3)(e) of the Public Utility Transfers and Water Charges Act 1988.
Commissioners of Sewers in existence immediately before commencement—
shall continue (subject to any scheme under section 3 of the Land Drainage Act 1991 or to any other scheme under that Act affecting their powers) to have the powers then exercisable by them or, in so far as those powers were exercisable under an enactment repealed by this Act, the corresponding powers under the Land Drainage Act 1991; and
shall have those powers subject to the same conditions, restrictions and qualifications or, in so far as the enactments imposing those conditions, restrictions or qualifications are repealed by this Act, the corresponding conditions, restrictions and qualifications in the Land Drainage Act 1991.
Where a person is disqualified for membership of a regional flood defence committee by virtue of having been adjudged bankrupt before the coming into force of the Insolvency Act 1986, the rules applicable apart from the repeals made by this Act, rather than paragraph 3(2) of Schedule 4 to the Water Resources Act 1991, shall apply for determining when that disqualification shall cease.
Where immediately before commencement— that scheme or committee shall continue to be so treated or, as the case may be, that person shall continue so to hold office, notwithstanding the provisions of section 13 of, or Schedule 4 to, the Water Resources Act 1991 or the repeal of any enactment by this Act. Where a person is disqualified for membership of a local flood defence committee by virtue of having been adjudged bankrupt before the coming into force of the Insolvency Act 1986, the rules applicable apart from the repeals made by this Act, rather than paragraph 3(2) of Schedule 4 to the Water Resources Act 1991, shall apply for determining when that disqualification shall cease.
The repeals and revocations made by this Act shall not affect— and the applicable provisions of the 1976 Act and of the Internal Drainage Boards (Finance) Regulations 1990 shall continue, notwithstanding those repeals and revocations, to have effect (instead of any provisions of the Land Drainage Act 1991) for the purposes of, and in connection with, the making or levying of any such apportionment or rate and otherwise in relation to drainage rates made in respect of any such financial year. Where— that order or other thing shall have effect in relation to the drainage rates made in respect of the latter years as if it had been made or done under or for the purposes of the corresponding provision of Part IV of the Land Drainage Act 1991; and references in that Act, in any other enactment or in any subordinate legislation or document to orders made under that Act or to any other thing done under or for the purposes of that Act shall be construed accordingly. References in paragraphs 17 to 19 below, in relation to any drainage rate made for a financial year beginning before 1993, to section 64 of the 1976 Act include references to that section as it has effect, subject to the provisions of the Internal Drainage Boards (Finance) Regulations 1990, by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) above.
In the period ending with 31st March 1993 the number of appointed members of an internal drainage board— If, in that period, more than one charging authority is entitled to appoint members of an internal drainage board under paragraph 5 of Schedule 1 to the Land Drainage Act 1991— For the purposes of sub-paragraph (2) above the relevant fraction, in relation to a charging authority, is the fraction which bears the same proportion to one as the aggregate for that authority of the values specified in sub-paragraph (4) below bears to the sum of such aggregate values for all the local charging authorities whose areas lie within the board’s district. The values mentioned in sub-paragraph (3) above are, in relation to any internal drainage board, the following values for the area of every charging authority whose area lies wholly within the internal drainage district of that board and for such parts of the areas of other charging authorities as lie within that district, that is to say— In this paragraph—
Paragraph 2 of Schedule 1 to the Land Drainage Act 1991 (persons entitled to vote in elections of internal drainage board members) shall have effect until the beginning of the financial year beginning in 1993 as if— In paragraph 3(1) of that Schedule, a reference to the assessable value of any land, in relation to a relevant date before 1st April 1993, is a reference to the annual value on which any such drainage rate would be assessable in accordance with section 64 of the 1976 Act. In this paragraph “the relevant date” has the same meaning as in paragraph 3 of Schedule 1 to that Act of 1991.
Paragraph 4 of Schedule 1 to the Land Drainage Act 1991, shall have effect until the beginning of the financial year beginning in 1993, as if— Subject to sub-paragraph (3) below, a person shall not, by virtue of paragraph 4(1)(a), (c) or (d) of Schedule 1 to the Land Drainage Act 1991 and sub-paragraph (1) above, be qualified for election as being the owner of any land or a person nominated by the owner of any land if at the date of the election any amount demanded in respect of any owner’s drainage rate levied in respect of that land remains unpaid. Sub-paragraph (2) above shall not apply if— In paragraph 4(1) of Schedule 1 to the Land Drainage Act 1991, a reference to the assessable value of land is, in relation to a relevant date before 1st April 1993, a reference to the annual value on which any such a drainage rate would be assessable in accordance with section 64 of the 1976 Act. In this paragraph “the relevant date” has the same meaning as in paragraph 4 of Schedule 1 to the Land Drainage Act 1991.
Subsections (2) and (3) of section 72 of the Land Drainage Act 1991 (qualification for making certain applications) shall have effect in relation to qualification by reference to a drainage rate made in respect of a financial year beginning before 1993, as if a reference in those subsections to the occupiers of any land included a reference to the owners of the land. In paragraph (b)(iii) of subsection (2) of that section, a reference to the assessable value of land is, where the rate referred to in that paragraph was made for a year beginning before 1993, a reference to the annual value on which any such drainage rate would be assessable in accordance with section 64 of the 1976 Act.
