The Department of Agriculture and Rural Development is designated(1) for the purposes of making Regulations under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972(2) in relation to the common agricultural policy of the European Union.
These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in that section and it appears to the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development that it is expedient for the references to the European instruments in these Regulations to be construed as references to those instruments as amended from time to time.
The Department of Agriculture and Rural Development makes these Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by section 2(2) of, and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to, the European Communities Act 1972.
1972 c. 68. Paragraph 1A was inserted into Schedule 2 by section 28 of the Legislative and Regulatory Reform Act 2006 (c. 51)
