The Secretary of State and the Welsh Ministers, acting jointly, make these Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 4(2), 4(11), 5(1) and 5(2) of the Reservoirs Act 1975(1).
1975 c. 23. The 1975 Act was repealed in relation to Scotland by the Reservoirs (Scotland) Act 2011 (asp 9). Functions under the 1975 Act, in so far as exercisable in relation to Wales, were transferred to the National Assembly for Wales by S.I. 1999/672, and further transferred to Welsh Ministers by paragraph 30 of Schedule 11 to the Government of Wales Act 2006 (c. 32). References to the National Assembly for Wales now have effect as a reference to Senedd Cymru, by virtue of section 150A(2) of the Government of Wales Act 2006 (c. 32). The 1975 Act was amended by the Flood and Water Management Act 2010 (c. 29) which added section 4(10), 4(11) and 5(2). Sections 4 and 5 (as amended) enable the Secretary of State and Welsh Ministers to establish panels jointly and to exercise functions in relation to those panels jointly.
