1986 c. 5(“ the 1986 Act”). Section 22 was amended by paragraph 5 of Schedule 3 to the Agriculture Act 2020 (c. 21)(“ the 2020 Act”). Section 84 was amended by paragraph 6 of Schedule 3 to the 2020 Act and S.I. 2006/2805. Relevant amendments to section 96 were made by S.I. 2002/794.

The functions of a Minister under the 1986 Act were, so far as exercisable in relation to Wales, transferred to the National Assembly for Wales (now Senedd Cymru by virtue of Section 2 of the Senedd and Elections (Wales) Act 2020 (anaw 1)) by Section 22 of the Government of Wales Act 1998 (c. 38)(now repealed) and Article 2(a) of, and Schedule 1 to, the National Assembly for Wales (Transfer of Functions) Order 1999 ( S.I. 1999/672). Those functions were then transferred from the National Assembly for Wales to the Welsh Ministers by paragraph 30 of Schedule 11 to the Government of Wales Act 2006 (c. 32).
For the definition of “professional authority” see section 84 of the 1986 Act, as amended by paragraph 6(5) of Schedule 3 to the 2020 Act.
