The Welfare of Animals at the Time of Killing Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2014

Made

Coming into operation

The Department of Agriculture and Rural Development is designated M1 for the purposes of section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 M2 in relation to the common agricultural policy of the European Union and makes these Regulations in exercise of those powers and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to that Act.

To the extent these Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972, it appears to the Department that it is expedient for the references in these Regulations to the Annexes to Council Regulation (EC) No 1099/2009 of 24 September 2009 on the protection of animals at the time of killing M3 to be construed as references to those Annexes as amended from time to time.
