Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Regulations) — published with the instrument by the department that made it. © Crown copyright, reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0.
The legislation relating to Civil Aviation (other than the Carriage by Air Act 1932 and legislation concerned with the constitutions and functions of the state controlled Airways Corporations) was consolidated in the Civil Aviation Act 1949, which was applied, with the necessary modifications and adaptations, to overseas dependent territories by the Colonial Civil Aviation (Application of Act) Order 1952. That Order has been amended several times to take account of the many changes of status and constitution which have occurred in relation to dependent territories and former dependent territories. It has also been amended by the Tokyo Convention Act 1967 (Overseas Territories) Order 1968 (S.I. 1968/1844). The present Order consolidates the previous Orders and also takes account of the repeals contained in the Civil Aviation Act 1968 (c. 61) and the attainment of independence by certain territories; it excludes from its purview Antigua, Dominica, Grenada, St. Christopher, Nevis and Anguilla, and St. Lucia, which have become Associated States under the provisions of the West Indies Act 1967 (c. 4).

What Parliament said about it
Hansard was searched for this instrument by name and returned nothing. That is the ordinary outcome: an instrument laid under the negative procedure is usually never debated, and becomes law without a word said about it in either House.
How Parliament handled it
Parliament's Statutory Instruments service records procedure from May 2017 onwards, and this instrument predates it. That is a limit of the source, not a statement that nothing happened.
