Subordinate Legislation (Confirmation and Validation) Bill

Regrettably, the bill, as introduced, omitted regulations made on 5 June 2012 under the National Animal Identification and Tracing Act 2012. These regulations impose levies on the owners of animals covered by the National Animal Identification and Tracing scheme. The levies contribute to the scheme’s funding. If not confirmed, the regulations will be deemed revoked at the close of 30 June 2013.
