Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations simplify and improve the operation of CAP legislation by amending the requirements for publication of the CAP beneficiaries by no longer requiring this to be done on a single UK website.
Regulation 2 modifies Article 111 of Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 by removing the requirement for the data to be made available for two years on a single website for the United Kingdom.
Regulation 3 is consequential upon the change made by regulation 2 and modifies Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 908/2014 by removing the references to the single UK website. Regulation 3 also confirms a new annual publication date.
A Data Protection Impact Assessment and a Business and Regulatory Impact Assessment have been prepared and placed in the Scottish Parliament Information Centre.
