This Order amends the Health Promotion Authority for Wales Constitution Order 1991 (S.I. 1991/1102) in relation to the constitution of the Authority.
Article 2 of this Order amends the 1991 Order by substituting a new article 5. In particular, the effect of the Order is to provide that the membership of the Authority is to include not more than seven persons (not being officers of the Authority). Prior to the change brought about by this Order, the equivalent requirement provided for there to be seven persons included in the membership of the Authority.
