2003 c.39 . The Justices of the Peace Act 1949 (Compensation) Regulations 1978 ( S.I. 1978/1682 ) were made under powers contained in section 42 of the Justices of the Peace Act 1949 (c.101) . Section 42 was repealed by the Justices of the Peace Act 1979 (c.55) (“the 1979 Act”) but paragraph 13(1) of Schedule 1 to that Act saved the Regulations and provided that they may be revoked or varied. The 1979 Act was repealed by the Justices of the Peace Act 1997 (c.25) (“the 1997 Act”) but paragraph 20 of Schedule 4 to the 1997 Act saved the Regulations by a provision materially identical to paragraph 13 of Schedule 1 to the 1979 Act. Paragraph 20 of Schedule 4 to the 1997 Act has been superseded by paragraph 11 of Schedule 9 to the Courts Act 2003 which, in its turn, saved the Regulations and provided that they may be revoked or varied.
S.I 1978/1682 , as amended by S.I. 1995/41 .
