Commentary

 

These Regulations are proposed to be made by the UK Government pursuant to section 8 of, and paragraph 21 of Schedule 7 to the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018.

 

These Regulations amend transitional provisions contained in the Common Organisation of the Markets in Agricultural Products Framework (Miscellaneous Amendments, etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (S.I. 2019/821), the Market Measures (Marketing Standards) (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (S.I. 2019/822) and the Market Measures (Miscellaneous Provisions) (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (S.I. 2019/824) to take account of subsequent amendments to the definition of “exit day” in the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (c. 16).  The original drafting relied on the original planned exit day of 29 March 2019.

 

These Regulations also make minor amendments to correct errors in the Rural Development (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (S.I. 2019/764), the Common Agricultural Policy (Financing, Management and Monitoring Supplementary Provisions) (Miscellaneous Amendments) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (S.I. 2019/765), the Common Agricultural Policy and Market Measures (Miscellaneous Amendments) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (S.I. 2019/812) and the Common Organisation of the Markets in Agricultural Products Framework (Miscellaneous Amendments, etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019.

 

The statutory instruments amended by these Regulations amend retained EU law in relation to the Common Agricultural Policy and agricultural market measures.

 

Legal Advisers agree with the statement laid by the Welsh Government dated 30 July 2019 regarding the effect of these Regulations.

The above summary and the content of the Explanatory Memorandum to these Regulations confirm their limited effect.
