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 all other powers enabling them to do so.
These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the 1972 Act and it appears to the Scottish Ministers that it is expedient for references to the Direct Payments Regulation, the Horizontal Delegated Regulation, the Horizontal Implementing Regulation and the Horizontal Regulation (as defined by virtue of regulation 3) to be construed as references to those instruments as amended from time to time.
