The Scottish Ministers make the following Order in exercise of the powers conferred by section 2(2) of, and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to, the European Communities Act 1972 M1, section 72 of the Animal Health Act 1981 M2 and all other powers enabling them to do so M3.

This Order makes 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 the references to the EU instruments in articles 2 and 3 to be construed as references to those instruments as amended from time to time.
