The Scottish Ministers make the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by section 10 of the Animal Health and Welfare Act 1984 M1 and section 2(2) of, and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to, the European Communities Act 1972 M2 and of all other powers enabling them to do so.

These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 and it appears to the Scottish Ministers that it is expedient for references to Community instruments referred to in regulation 2(1) to be references to those instruments as amended from time to time.
