The Treasury are designated(1) for the purposes of section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972(2) in relation to public procurement.

The Treasury makes these Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by section 2(2) of, as read with paragraph 1A(3) of Schedule 2 to, that Act.

These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of that Act, and it appears to the Treasury that it is expedient for certain references to provisions of Community instruments to be construed as references to those provisions as amended from time to time.
