The advice of the Office of the Attorney General is that the judgment in this case relates to the Animal Remedies Act, 1993. Whether the judgment has implications for other legislation is under review. However, the case has no implications for the regulations made under the European Communities Act, 1972, or the related legislation recently passed by these Houses.
