EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Water Environment (Water Framework Directive) (England and Wales) Regulations 2003 (S.I. 2003/3242) (“the 2003 Regulations”). They transpose aspects of Directive 2013//39/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Directives 2000/60/EC and 2008/105/EC as regards priority substances in the field of water policy (OJ No L 226, 24.8.2013, p1).

The Regulations also make miscellaneous amendments to the 2003 Regulations, including updating the list of enactments in Schedule 2 to which certain duties in regulation 3 of the 2003 Regulations apply.

An impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sectors is foreseen. A transposition note is annexed to the Explanatory Memorandum which is available alongside the instrument on www.legislation.gov.uk.
