Sea Fisheries
Made 22nd May 2018
Laid before Parliament 25th May 2018
Laid before the National Assembly for Wales 25th May 2018
Coming into force 18th June 2018
The Secretary of State, and the Welsh Ministers in relation to Wales, the Welsh zone and Welsh fishing boats beyond the seaward limits of the Welsh zone, make these Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by section 30(2) of the Fisheries Act 1981, which are now vested in them.
The Secretary of State, and the Welsh Ministers in relation to Wales and the Welsh zone, also make these Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by section 2(2) of, and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to, the European Communities Act 1972 (“the 1972 Act”).
The Secretary of State and the Welsh Ministers are each designated for the purposes of section 2(2) of the 1972 Act in relation to the common agricultural policy of the European Union.
These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the 1972 Act and it appears to the Secretary of State and the Welsh Ministers that it is expedient for any reference in these Regulations to Council Regulation (EC) No. 1224/2009 establishing a Community control system for ensuring compliance with the rules of the common fisheries policy to be construed as a reference to that Regulation as amended from time to time.
