PLANT HEALTH

The Plant Health (Scotland) Amendment (No. 2) Order 2008

Made

Laid before the Scottish Parliament

Coming into force

The Scottish Ministers make the following Order in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 2, 3 and 4(1) of the Plant Health Act 19671, as read with section 20 of the Agriculture (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 19722, and section 2(2) of, and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to, the European Communities Act 19723, and all other powers enabling them to do so.

The Order makes 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 the references to Commission Directive 2008/61/EC4 to be construed as references to that instrument as amended from time to time.
