# The Seeds (Fees) (Amendment) (Wales) Regulations 2002

W.S.I. 2002/1554 · made 11 June 2002

These Regulations, which apply only to Wales, amend the Seeds (Fees) Regulations 1985 (as amended). The amendments are necessary as a result of the Fodder Plants Seeds (Amendment) (Wales) Regulations 2001 (S.I. 2001/3665 (W.297)) which removed white lupin, narrow-leaved lupin (blue lupin), yellow lupin, Hungarian vetch, common vetch, hairy vetch and lucerne from the definition of “Certified Seed” in the Fodder Plant Seeds Regulations 1993 and included them instead within the definition of “Certified Seed of the First Generation”. The amendments are required to ensure that the descriptions of categories of seeds for which fees are prescribed in Schedule 2 to the Regulations reflect these changes.

Made under: Plant Varieties and Seeds Act 1964 (Section 16, Section 36)
