Regulations made by my Department pursuant to the European Communities Acts have statutory effect. All such Regulations when made are placed on my Department's web site for perusal by the public and other interested parties. Details of Orders and Regulations made each calendar year by my Department are also to be found in my Department's Annual Report.

The Animals Remedies Act of 1993 made provision for regulations made there under having statutory effect in so far as they give effect to "acts of the institutions of the European Communities" however there are no such Regulations extant at this time.
