EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This is not part of the Instrument and does not purport to be a legal interpretation)
These Regulations remove an anomaly that existed in Regulation 5 of the European Communities (Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities) Regulations 1989 ( S.I. No. 78 of 1989 ), which arose in the transposition of Article 1.5 of Council Directive No. 85/611/EEC of 20 December 1985.
