The Secretary of State is a Minister designated M1 for the purposes of section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 M2 in relation to measures relating to the environment.
The Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 and it appears to the Secretary of State that it is expedient for the references to—
Council Directive 96/29/Euratom laying down basic standards for the protection of the health of workers and the general public against the dangers arising from ionizing radiation M3, and
Council Directive 2006/117/Euratom on the supervision and control of shipments of radioactive waste and spent fuel M4,
to be construed as references to those Directives as amended from time to time.
The Secretary of State makes these Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by section 2(2) of, and paragraph 1A M5 of Schedule 2 to, the European Communities Act 1972.
