EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)


The Redundancy Payments (Continuity of Employment in Local Government, etc.) (Modification) Order 1999 as amended modifies certain provisions of the Employment Rights Act 1996 concerning redundancy payments in their application to individuals employed by local authorities or certain other bodies, most of which are local or regional. The effect of the modifications is that an individual's service with a succession of employers is treated as continuous for the purpose of determining his entitlement to a redundancy payment or the amount of any such payment.

This Order amends the 1999 Order by adding to the list of bodies, set out in Schedule 1 to that Order, to whose employees that Order applies. The principal additions are Care Trusts, the Care Standards Inspectorate for Wales and the National Care Standards Commission. The other bodies added are concerned with planning and development, careers guidance, social services or leisure facilities.
