This Order amends the Treatment of Spruce Bark Order 1993 by substituting a new Schedule describing the areas in which the movement of spruce bark is prohibited unless treated against the tree pest Dendroctonus micans Kugelann (the Great Spruce Bark Beetle) (article 2).
The spread of Dendroctonus micans is also controlled by the Plant Health (Forestry) (Great Britain) Order 1993 (S.I. 1993/1283, amended by S.I. 1994/3094).
1967 c. 8; sections 2(1), 3(1) and (2) were amended by the European Communities Act 1972 (c. 68), Schedule 4, paragraph 8; section 3(4) was substituted by section 42 of the Criminal Justice Act 1982 (c. 48). The powers conferred by sections 2 and 3 of the Plant Health Act 1967 are conferred on "a competent authority", which expression is defined in section 1(2), as regards the protection of forest trees and timber from attack by pests, as the Forestry Commissioners.
