Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order) — published with the instrument by the department that made it. © Crown copyright, reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0.

This Order authorises Suffolk County Council to construct, operate and maintain the Lake Lothing Third Crossing. This is a lifting bridge which would open to allow tall vessels to pass through Lake Lothing. It would connect the areas to the north and south of Lake Lothing and would be located between the existing bascule bridge carrying the A47 and the existing Mutford Lock bridge. The Order would permit Suffolk County Council to acquire, compulsorily or by agreement, land and rights over land and to use land temporarily for purposes in connection with the authorised development. The Order also includes provisions in relation to the operation of the new lifting bridge and in relation to tidal works. A copy of all documents referred to in this Order and certified in accordance with article 60 of this Order (certification of documents) may be inspected free of charge during working hours at the offices of Suffolk County Council, Endeavour House, 8 Russell Road, Ipswich, Suffolk IP1 2BX and at Riverside, 4 Canning Road, Lowestoft, Suffolk NR33 0EQ.

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 has no record of this instrument, although it covers the period. Nothing is inferred from that.
