The Shrimp Fishing Nets (Wales) (Amendment) Order 2008
Made
8 December 2008
Laid before the National Assembly for Wales
9 December 2008
Coming into force
2 January 2009
The Welsh Ministers are designated(1) for the purposes of section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972(2), as read with paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to that Act(3), in relation to the common agricultural policy of the European Community.
This Order amends the 2008 Order that makes provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 and it appears to the Welsh Ministers that it is expedient for the references to European Community instruments in the 2008 Order to be construed as references to those instruments as amended from time to time.
The Welsh Ministers, in exercise of the powers conferred by section 3(1) of the Sea Fish (Conservation) Act 1967(4), and in exercise of the powers conferred by section 2(2) of, and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to, the European Communities Act 1972, make the following Order:
