EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Order varies the Spring Traps Approval (England) Order 2012 (S.I. 2012/13).

This Order adds three types of spring trap to those approved for use in England: the KORO Large Rodent Double Coil Spring Snap Trap, the KORO Rodent Snap Trap and the Procull Trap (article 2).

An impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sectors is foreseen.
