This Order specifies the days and times for early voting in the first ordinary election of the Greater London Authority and, by reference to electoral areas, the polling stations at which early voting may take place. The Order also makes some consequential modifications of the legislation governing elections for the purposes of the Greater London Authority. This Order has been made in consequence of a defect as to the dates of early voting in the Greater London Authority (Early Voting) Order 2000 (S.I. 2000/725). It is intended, in accordance with regulation 6 of the Statutory Instruments Regulations 1947 (S.I. 1948/1), that S.I. 2000/725 will not be printed and sold.

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.
