In exercise of the powers conferred on me by section 44 of the Police Act 1964, and after consultation with the three Central Committees of the Police Federation for England and Wales sitting as a Joint Committee, I hereby make the following Regulations:-
1. These Regulations may be cited as the Police Federation (Amendment) Regulations 1975 and shall come into operation on 1st December 1975.

For the purposes of these Regulations there shall be the following eight regions:-

No. 2 (North-East) Region, comprising the police areas of Cleveland, Durham, Humberside, Northumbria, North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire and West Yorkshire;
No. 3 (Midlands) Region, comprising the police areas of West Midlands, West Mercia, Warwickshire and Staffordshire;
No. 4 (Eastern) Region, comprising the police areas of Cambridgeshire, Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Norfolk, Northamptonshire, Nottinghamshire and Suffolk;
No. 5 (South-East) Region, comprising the police areas of Bedfordshire, Essex, Hampshire, Hertfordshire, Kent, Surrey, Sussex and Thames Valley;

No. 7 (Wales) Region, comprising the police areas of North Wales, South Wales, Dyfed-Powys and Gwent;
No. 8 (London) Region, comprising the metropolitan police district and the City of London."
These Regulations amend the Police Federation Regulations 1969.
Regulation 16 of the Regulations of 1969 limits the funds which may be retained by a branch board at the end of any year and requires the payment of any excess to the appropriate central committee. Regulation 3 of these Regulations raises these limits.
Regulation 4 of these Regulations amends the composition of regions in the Regulations of 1969 to take account of changes in police areas resulting from the Local Government Act 1972(c.70).
