EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations substitute a new regulation 10 in the Common Agricultural Policy Single Payment and Support Schemes Regulations 2005 (S.I. 2005/219). The effect of the amendment is to reduce from six weeks to three weeks the amount of notice which a transferor of payment entitlements is required to give the relevant competent authority of a transfer of payment entitlements, provided he gives such notice on or before 23rd April 2006. Where a transferor of payment entitlements gives the relevant competent authority notice of a transfer of entitlements after 23rd April 2006, he is still required to give at least six weeks notice of the transfer.

A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for these Regulations as they have no impact on the costs of business.
