These Regulations amend the Genetically Modified Organisms (Deliberate Release) (Amendment) (Wales) Regulations 2019 (S.I. 2019/1316 (W. 228)) ("the 2019 Regulations").
Regulation 3 makes a minor amendment to the Welsh language text of regulation 6 of the 2019 Regulations to effect equivalence with the English language text.
Regulation 4 makes amendments to regulation 7 of the 2019 Regulations, to correct a cross-reference and effect equivalence between the English and Welsh language texts.
The Welsh Ministers' Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, it was not considered necessary to carry out a regulatory impact assessment as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations.
S.I. 2003/2901. By virtue of paragraphs 28(1) and 30 of Schedule 11 to the Government of Wales Act 2006 (c. 32), S.I. 2003/2901 has effect as if made under section 59(1) of that Act.

1990 c. 43. Subsection (11) defines "prescribed". Section 126 was substituted by paragraph 18 of Schedule 3 to the Food Standards Act 1999 (c. 28). The functions of the Secretary of State under these provisions were transferred to the National Assembly for Wales under article 2 of, and Schedule 1 to, the National Assembly for Wales (Transfer of Function) Order 1999 (S.I. 1999/672). By virtue of paragraph 30 of Schedule 11 to the Government of Wales Act 2006 these functions were then further transferred to the Welsh Ministers.
