(This note is not part of the Regulations) These Regulations, which come into force on 1st January 2002, amend the Slaughter Premium Regulations 2000 (S.I. 2000/3126, as amended by S.I. 2001/3686) ("the principal Regulations") by removing the distinction between "premium adult animals" and "premium older animals" from those Regulations (regulations 3 and 4). These amendments are made as a consequence of the removal of the Intervention Board for Agricultural Produce from exercising functions under those Regulations, and in particular its administration of claims for slaughter premium in respect of bovine animals aged over thirty months, upon its dissolution by virtue of the Intervention Board for Agricultural Produce (Abolition) Regulations 2001 (S.I. 2001/3686). The Regulations also make a number of other minor amendments bringing references to Community and other domestic legislation up to date (regulations 3 and 4). No Regulatory Impact Assessment has been prepared in respect of these Regulations. Notes: [1] S.I. 1972/1811.
