The Products of Animal Origin (Third Country Imports) (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2009
Made 3rd June 2009
Laid before the Scottish Parliament 4th June 2009
Coming into force 26th June 2009

The Scottish Ministers make the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by section 2(2) of, and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to, the European Communities Act 1972 and all other powers enabling them to do so.
1972 c. 68. Section 2(2) was amended by the Scotland Act 1998 (c. 46) (“the 1998 Act”), Schedule 8, paragraph 15(3), and the Legislative and Regulatory Reform Act 2006 (c. 51) (“the 2006 Act”), section 27(1). Paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 was inserted by section 28 of the 2006 Act. The functions conferred upon a Minister of the Crown under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972, insofar as exercisable within devolved competence, were transferred to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of section 53 of the 1998 Act.
These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the said Act and it appears to the Scottish Ministers that it is expedient for the references to Community instruments set out in Schedule 1 to the Products of Animal Origin (Third Country Imports) (Scotland) Regulations 2007 to be construed as references to those instruments as amended from time to time.
S.S.I. 2007/1 as amended by S.S.I. 2007/304.
