NORTHERN IRELAND

Made
15th June 1992
Laid before Parliament
15th June 1992
Coming into force
15th June 1992
Whereas, under section 69(3) of the Northern Ireland (Emergency Provisions) Act 1991(1), the Secretary of State may by order make provision for the duration, cesser and revival of the temporary provisions of that Act:
And whereas it appears to me that by reason of urgency it is necessary to make this Order without a draft thereof having been approved by resolution of each House of Parliament:
Now, therefore, in exercise of the powers conferred upon me by section 69(3) of the said Act of 1991, I hereby make the following Order:
1. This Order may be cited as the Northern Ireland (Emergency Provisions) Act 1991 (Continuance) Order 1992 and shall come into force forthwith.
2. Section 34 of, and Schedule 3 to, the Northern Ireland (Emergency Provisions) Act 1991 (detention orders) shall-
(a)come into force again immediately before the end of 15th June 1992;
(b)be continued in force as from the beginning of 16th June 1992 until their ceasing to be in force by virtue of paragraph (c) below; and
(c)cease to be in force immediately after the coming into effect of their continuance in force by virtue of paragraph (b) above.
P. B. B. Mayhew
One of Her Majesty's Principal Secretaries of State
Northern Ireland Office

Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Order)
Apart from this Order, section 34 of, and Schedule 3 to, the Northern Ireland (Emergency Provisions) Act 1991 (which relate to detention and by virtue of section 69(4) of that Act ceased to be in force immediately after their coming into force) would expire with 15th June 1992, as not being provisions which could be continued in force by an order under section 69(3)(a). By virtue of article 2(c) of this Order, upon having been continued in force section 34 and Schedule 3 will immediately again cease to be in force.
