The Secretary of State is a Minister designated(1) for the purposes of section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972(2) in relation to the creation, operation, regulation or dissolution of companies and other forms of business organisation.
The Secretary of State, in exercise of the powers conferred by section 2(2) and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2(3) of the European Communities Act 1972, makes the following Order.
This Order makes provision for a purpose mentioned in the European Communities Act 1972 and it appears to the Secretary of State that it is expedient for certain references to provisions of EU instruments to be construed as a reference to those provisions as amended from time to time.
