2010 No. 87
The Rural Development Contracts (Rural Priorities) (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2010
Made
Laid before the Scottish Parliament
Coming into force
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 1972 M1 and all other powers enabling them to do so.
The Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in that section and it appears to the Scottish Ministers that it is expedient for the reference to Council Regulation (EC) No. 834/2007 on organic production and labelling of organic products and repealing Regulation (EEC) No. 2092/91 M2 to be construed as a reference to that Regulation as amended from time to time.
O.J. No. L 189, 20.7.2007, p.1 as amended by Council Regulation (EC) No. 967/2008 O.J. No. L 264, 3.10.2008, p.1.
1972 c.68. Section 2(2) was amended by the Scotland Act 1998 (c.46), Schedule 8, paragraph 15(3) and the Legislative and Regulatory Reform Act 2006 (c.51), section 27(1) and was amended by the European Union (Amendment) Act 2008 c.7, Schedule 1(1), paragraph 1. The functions conferred upon the Minister of the Crown under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972, insofar as within devolved competence, were transferred to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of section 53 of the Scotland Act 1998. Paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 was inserted by section 28 of the Legislative and Regulatory Reform Act 2006 and was amended by the European Union (Amendment) Act 2008, Schedule 1(1), paragraph 1.
