EXPLANATORY NOTE
The Equine Identification (Wales) Regulations 2019 (S.I. 2019/57 (W. 20)) (“the Equine Regulations”) supplement and make provision for the enforcement of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/262 laying down rules pursuant to Council Directives 90/427/EEC and 2009/156/EC as regards the methods for the identification of equidae (OJ No L 59, 3.3.2015, p.1) in Wales. Regulation 2 corrects the Equine Regulations to amend one reference to “responsible person” to “owner”.
The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, it was not considered necessary to carry out a regulatory impact assessment as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations.
