Scottish Statutory Instruments
Environmental Protection
Made
8th January 2014
Laid before the Scottish Parliament
10th January 2014
Coming into force
1st March 2014
The Scottish Ministers make the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by section 34(5) of the Environmental Protection Act 1990(1) and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to the European Communities Act 1972(2) (“the 1972 Act”), and all other powers enabling them to do so.
These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the 1972 Act and it appears to the Scottish Ministers that it is expedient for references to Commission Decision 2000/532/EC(3) to be references to that instrument as amended from time to time.
1990 c.43. As relevantly amended by S.S.I. 2012/148. The functions conferred upon the Secretary of State, insofar as within devolved competence, were transferred to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of section 53 of the Scotland Act 1998 (c.46).
1972 c.68. Paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to the 1972 Act was inserted by section 28 of the Legislative and Regulatory Reform Act 2006 (c.51) and amended by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the European Union (Amendment) Act 2008 (c.27). The functions conferred upon the Minister of the Crown, insofar as within devolved competence, were transferred to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of section 53 of the Scotland Act 1998 (c.46).
OJ L 226, 6.9.2000, p.3. As amended by Commission Decision 2001/118/EC (OJ L 47, 16.2.2001, p.1), Commission Decision 2001/119/EC (OJ L 47, 16.2.2001, p.32), and Council Decision 2001/573/EC (OJ L 203, 28.7.2001, p.18).
