Made 6th October 2009
Laid before the Scottish Parliament 7th October 2009
Coming into force 13th November 2009
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 1972f1 and all other powers enabling them to do so.
These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in that section and it appears to the Scottish Ministers that it is expedient for the references to Community Instruments in regulation 2 of the Welfare of Animals (Transport) (Scotland) Regulations 2006f2 to be construed as references to those instruments as amended from time to time.
