The Welsh Ministers are designated for the purposes of section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 M1 (“the 1972 Act”) in relation to the common agricultural policy M2 and measures relating to the control and regulation of the deliberate release, placing on the market and transboundary movements of genetically modified organisms M3.
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 1972 Act.
These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the 1972 Act and it appears expedient to the Welsh Ministers for the references to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/2072 establishing uniform conditions for the implementation of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031 of the European Parliament and the Council, as regards protective measures against pests of plants M4, and to the European Union instruments mentioned in regulation 3(1), to be construed as references to those instruments as amended from time to time.
