Wildlife
Countryside
Made 22nd February 2011
Laid before the Scottish Parliament 24th February 2011
Coming into force 6th April 2011
The Scottish Ministers make the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by section 2(2) of, and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to, the European Communities Act 1972 and section 26A of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, and all other powers enabling them to do so.
These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of that Act of 1972, and it appears to the Scottish Ministers that it is expedient for references to EU instruments, or provisions of those instruments, in these Regulations to be construed as references to those instruments or provisions as amended from time to time.
