2009 No. 229
The Control of Salmonella in Poultry (Breeding, Laying and Broiler Flocks) (Scotland) Order 2009
Made
Laid before the Scottish Parliament
Coming into force
The Scottish Ministers make the following Order in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 1, 8(1) and 87(5) of the Animal Health Act 1981 M1 and section 2(2) of, and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to, the European Communities Act 1972 M2, and all other powers enabling them to do so.
This 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 in article 2 to a Community instrument to be a reference to that instrument as amended from time to time.
1972 c. 68 (“the 1972 Act”). Section 2(2) was amended by paragraph 15(3) of Schedule 8 to the 1998 Act, and section 27(1) of the Legislative and Regulatory Reform Act 2006 (c. 51) (“the 2006 Act”). Paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 was inserted by section 28 of the 2006 Act. The powers in section 2(2) are exercised as regards articles 2 and 3. The functions conferred upon the Minister of the Crown under section 2(2) of the 1972 Act, so far as within devolved competence, were transferred to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of section 53 of the 1998 Act.
1981 c. 22. Section 8 was amended by paragraph 1 of Schedule 2 to the Animal Health and Welfare (Scotland) Act 2006 (asp 11). The functions conferred under the 1981 Act on “the Ministers” (as defined in section 86 of that Act) are now exercisable by the Scottish Ministers. They were transferred, so far as within devolved competence, by virtue of section 53 of the Scotland Act 1998 (c. 46) (“the 1998 Act”).
