Abstract

These Regulations amend the principal Regulations 1985 in order to make transitional provisions relating to the expiry of emergency licences issued under the Artificial Insemination of Cattle (Emergency Licences) (Wales) Regulations 2001 (S.I. 2001/1539 (W.107)) during the recent outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease and to enable the National Assembly for Wales to recognise training courses in addition to those already recognised by the (now defunct) Agricultural Training Board. Regulation 2(2) of these Regulations inserts new definitions of "emergency licence", "special acceptance licence" and "special transfer licence" into regulation 2(1) of the 1985 Regulations. Regulation 2(3) amends regulation 4(3A) of the 1985 Regulations to reflect the new definition of "emergency licence". Regulation 2(4) amends regulation 7 of the 1985 Regulations to provide for the issue of special transfer licences and special acceptance licences. Regulation 2(5) amends regulation 21 of the 1985 Regulations to permit (subject to conditions) the acceptance for supply of semen collected and processed in accordance with an emergency licence. Regulation 2(6) amends regulation 24 of the 1985 Regulations to permit the use of semen collected or moved in accordance with an emergency licence and to enable the National Assembly for Wales to recognise training courses.
