# The Suckler Cow Premium (Amendment) Regulations 1997, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Regulations)
1 These Regulations make an amendment to the Suckler Cow Premium Regulations 1993 (S.I. 1993/1441, as already amended by S.I. 1994/1528, S.I. 1995/15, S.I. 1995/1446 and S.I. 1996/1488). Like S.I. 1993/1441, these Regulations extend to Great Britain only.
2 The amendment is that, where the additional payments provided for by Council Regulation (EC) No. 2443/96 (OJ No. L333, 21.12.96, p. 2) are made to successful applicants for suckler cow premium, those payments are treated for the purposes of the bulk of those provisions of S.I. 1993/1441, as amended, which relate to financial control and enforcement as being suckler cow premium payments.
3 The legal base for the payment of suckler cow premium continues to be Article 4d of Council Regulation (EEC) No. 805/68 (OJ No. L148, 28.6.68, p. 24 (OJ/SE 1968, vol. I, p. 187)). Article 4d was inserted by Council Regulation (EEC) No. 2066/92 (OJ No. L215, 30.7.92, p. 49).
4 No compliance cost assessment has been prepared in respect of these Regulations.
