Under section 57 of the Scotland Act (1998 c. 46), despite the transfer to Scottish Ministers of functions in relation to implementing obligations under Community law in relation to devolved matters, the function of the Secretary of State in relation to implementing those obligations continues to be exercisable by her as regards Scotland.

By virtue of the amendment of section 1(2) of the European Communities Act by section 1 of the European Economic Area Act 1993(c. 51) regulations may be made under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act to implement obligations of the United Kingdom created or arising by or under the Agreement on the European Economic Area dated 2nd May 1992 (Cm 2073) as adjusted by the Protocol dated 17th March 1993 (Cm 2183) and the EEA Enlargement Agreement dated 14th October 2003 (Cm 6171).

The European Union (Accession) Act 2003 (C.35) gives effect to the Accession Treaty in the United Kingdom by amending section 1(2) of the European Communities Act 1972.
