1981 c. 22. Powers to make Orders under these sections were originally conferred on “the Ministers” as defined in section 86 of the Act. These powers are now exercisable by the Secretary of State in England. Functions of “the Ministers” so far as exercisable by the Secretaries of State for Scotland and Wales, were transferred to the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food by the Transfer of Functions (Agriculture and Fisheries) Order 1999 (SI 1999/3141). Functions of the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food were transferred to the Secretary of State by the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (Dissolution) Order 2002 (SI 2002/794).
