CATEGORY Q1: POLICE DISTRICT OF THE DUBLIN METROPOLIS
The Statute Law Revision Programme considers the instruments in this category to be suitable for revocation.
This category consists of orders relating to the police district of the Dublin Metropolis. The instruments were made pursuant to section 14 of the Dublin Police Act 1839 (2 & 3 Vict.) c. 78 and section 8 of the Dublin Police Act 1859 (22 & 23 Vict.) c. 52. These provisions remain in force.
The Statute Law Revision Programme consulted with the Department of Justice and An Garda Síochána on the instruments in this category. The Department and An Garda Síochána agreed that the instruments were suitable for revocation.
Please note that spellings are recorded as they appear in the original print versions of the Dublin Gazette and have not been standardised or modernised. The wording of the subject matter of instruments is not final and is subject to change.

Dublin Police Order 1808[i]
|
|
[i] The Dublin Police Order 1808 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 Justice and An Garda Síochána on whether it was still necessary to retain it. Both the Department and An Garda Síochána considered that it was suitable for revocation.
