(This note is not part of the Order)


This Order amends section 1(10) of the Local Government (Overseas Assistance Act) 1993 to provide that the London Pensions Fund Authority is a local authority for the purposes of that Act. Accordingly, it may, subject to the restrictions imposed by the Act, provide advice and assistance as respects any matter in which it has skill and experience to a body engaged outside the United Kingdom in the carrying on of any of the activities of local government.

The London Pensions Fund Authority was established by the London Government Reorganisation (Pensions etc.) Order 1989 (S.I. 1989/1815) to assume the functions of the London Residuary Body in relation to the superannuation fund maintained by it.
