EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)


Section 163 of the Greater London Authority Act 1999 prohibits Transport for London from disposing of operational land without the consent of the Secretary of State. Under section 164 of that Act, Transport for London is required to ensure that none of its subsidiaries does anything which Transport for London has no power to do (including anything which Transport for London has no power to do because the consent of the Secretary of State has not been obtained).

The land at Larcombe Close, Croydon which is the subject of this Order was previously used by Croydon Tramlink and is operational land as defined in section 163(8) of the Greater London Authority Act 1999. Its disposal therefore requires the consent of the Secretary of State. The land is currently vested in London Bus Services Limited, a subsidiary of Transport for London, and the disposal shall be made by that company.

By this Order the Secretary of State for Transport gives consent to Transport for London for the disposal to the London Borough of Croydon of a freehold interest in the land which is the subject of the Order.
