2011 No. 24

Environmental Protection

The Storage of Carbon Dioxide (Licensing etc.) (Scotland) Regulations 2011

Made

Laid before the Scottish Parliament

Coming into force

The Scottish Ministers make the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 19, 21 and 104(2) of the Energy Act 20081 and section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 19722 and all other powers enabling them to do so.

These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 and it appears to the Scottish Ministers that it is expedient for references to EU instruments, or provisions of those instruments, in these Regulations to be construed as references to those instruments or provisions as amended from time to time.
