[i] The Protection of Foreign Diplomats Order 1624 was retained by the Statute Law Revision Act 2015. As statute law revision is an ongoing and continuous process, the Statute Law Revision Programme sought the view of the Department of Foreign Affairs on whether it was still necessary to retain it. The Department considered that it was suitable for revocation.
