(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Common Agricultural Policy Single Payment and Support Schemes (Wales) Regulations 2010 (S.I. 2010/1892) (W.185) (“the principal Regulations”) which make provision in Wales for the administration of Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 (OJ No L 30, 31.1.2009, p 16), and other associated EU instruments, in relation to direct support schemes under the common agricultural policy.
Regulation 2 amends the principal Regulations to provide for additional modulation deductions which will be made from direct payments to farmers for 2013.
A regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sectors is foreseen.
