CIPFA backs demise of ultra vires...

Article Abstract:

The Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA) advocated the repeal of the ultra vires doctrine, which mandated that authorities exercise only powers specified and granted by Parliament. However, the CIPFA clarified that they sought the abolition only with respect to powers over money market instruments. The Bank of England formed a Legal Risk Review Committee to address issues regarding a House of Lords ruling barring local authorities from engaging in interest rate swaps.
