EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Order, made under section 4 of, and Part II of Schedule 3 to, the European Communities Act 1972, appoints a day for the repeal of specified provisions of the Sugar Act 1956, and of associated legislation, which will no longer be required following adoption by the United Kingdom of the Common Agriculture Policy of the European Community. These provisions include the obligation on Ministers to determine the prices to be paid for home-grown sugar beet and the power to prescribe the acreage of land on which it shall be produced.
