These Regulations amend the Avian Influenza (Preventive Measures) (Scotland) Regulations 2005 (“the principal Regulations”). The principal Regulations give effect to Commission Decision 2005/734/EC laying down biosecurity measures to reduce the risk of transmission of highly pathogenic avian influenza caused by Influenza virus A subtype H5N1 from birds living in the wild to poultry and other captive birds and providing for an early detection system in areas at particular risk (O.J. No. L 274, 20.10.05, p.105) (“Commission Decision 2005/734/EC”) as amended by Commission Decision 2005/745/EC (O.J. No. L 279, 22.10.05, p.79) and Commission Decision 2005/855/EC (O.J. No. L 316, 2.12.05, p.21).
Commission Decision 2005/734/EC has been subsequently amended by Commission Decision 2006/405/EC to extend the period of application of the measures provided for in Commission Decision 2005/734/EC (as amended) to 31st December 2006.
These Regulations by replacing the definition of the Commission Decision in the principal Regulations give effect to this amendment.
