EUR 2013/1307. Relevantly amended by S.I. 2020/91 and S.I. 2020/576. This Regulation was incorporated into domestic law on exit day by section 1 of the Direct Payments to Farmers (Legislative Continuity) Act 2020 (c.2). It was also relevantly prospectively amended with effect from IP completion day by S.I. 2019/207 (paragraph 1 of schedule 5 to the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Act 2020 (c.1) means that this instrument would have come into force on IP completion day rather than on exit day as drafted) but it is to be prospectively revoked by the Agriculture (Payments) (Amendment, etc) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020 immediately before IP completion day.
