1981 c. 22. Section 8A was inserted by section 6 of the Animal Health and Welfare (Scotland) Act 2006 (asp 11) (“the 2006 Act”). Section 8 was amended by paragraph 1 of schedule 2 to the 2006 Act. The functions conferred under the 1981 Act on “the Ministers” (as defined in section 86 of that Act) are now exercisable by the Scottish Ministers. They were transferred, so far as within devolved competence, by virtue of section 53 of the Scotland Act 1998 (c. 46).
