EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order, which extends to England, Wales and Scotland, prescribes the fees payable by the holder of a licence issued under section 2C of the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986 which was inserted by the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986 Amendment Regulations 2012, which transposed Directive 2010/63. This Order does not increase the fees, but reflects the amended terminology in the enabling Act.
This Order revokes the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act (Fees) Order 2012, which was reported by the Joint Committee for Statutory Instruments for doubtful vires.
