The Welsh Ministers are designated(1) for the purposes of making Regulations under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972(2) in relation to the common agricultural policy of the European Union.

The Welsh Ministers make these Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by section 2(2) of, and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to, the European Communities Act 1972.
