EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)


These Regulations, which come into force on 31 March 2006, amend the Dairy Produce Quotas (Wales) Regulations 2005 (S.I. 2005/537) ("the 2005 Regulations").

The 2005 Regulations implement Council Regulation (EC) No. 1788/2003 establishing a levy in the milk and milk products sector (OJ No. L 279, 21.10.2003, p.123) and Commission Regulation (EC) No. 595/2004 laying down detailed rules for applying Council Regulation (EC) No. 1788/2003 establishing a levy in the milk and milk products sector (OJ No. L 94, 31.3.2004, p.22) ("the Commission Regulation").

Regulation 3 corrects an error in regulation 16 of the 2005 Regulations preventing the transfer of quota necessary to cover production taking place before the date of transfer. The amendment provides that such quota may be transferred, but cannot be identified as unused quota.

Regulations 4 to 6 amend provisions requiring dairy producers and purchasers to provide information to the National Assembly by a specified date. The requirement is that the information is sent to the National Assembly on or before that date.

Regulation 7 corrects an omission in regulation 36 of the 2005 Regulations to penalise purchasers who send inaccurate summaries of production required to be submitted under Article 8(2) of the Commission Regulation. It also provides that the penalty for purchasers who fail to submit a summary as required by Article 8(4) of the Commission Regulation before 1 July in the year in which it is required applies 30 days after the service of a notice by the National Assembly to this effect.

A Regulatory Appraisal of the effect which this instrument will have on the costs of business has been prepared and copies can be obtained from the National Assembly for Wales, Cathays Park, Cardiff CF10 3NQ.
