EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

The Local Government (Best Value) Performance Indicators and Performance Standards Order 2003 sets statutory performance indicators and standards for best value authorities in England and for fire and police authorities in Wales. These indicators relate to all of the functions of these authorities.

This Order amends the 2003 Order by substituting new performance indicators for fire authorities in England and Wales.

A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as it has no impact on the costs of business.
