The Lord Chancellor (Consequential Provisions) Order (Northern Ireland) 2006
Article 2 of this Order introduces the Schedule which makes amendments to certain functions of the Lord Chancellor which are contained in secondary legislation. These amendments are consequential to amendments that are effected by Schedule 5 to the Constitutional Reform Act 2005 (c. 4) which transfers certain of the Lord Chancellor’s functions to the Lord Chief Justice of Northern Ireland, and requires certain functions to be exercised by the Lord Chancellor only after consulting, or obtaining the concurrence of the Lord Chief Justice of Northern Ireland.
