Coming into force in accordance with regulation 1
The Secretary of State is a Minister designated1 for the purposes of section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 19722 (“the 1972 Act”) in relation to the common agricultural policy.
The Secretary of State makes these Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by section 2(2) of the 1972 Act, as read with paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to that Act3.
These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the 1972 Act and it appears expedient to the Secretary of State for certain references to provisions of European Union instruments to be construed as references to those provisions as amended from time to time.
