The Seal Fisheries (North Pacific) Act 1912 (Amendment) Regulations 1996
These Regulations are made in consequence of the internal market provisions of the Treaty which established the European Economic Community (the Treaty of Rome dated 25th March 1957, as amended by the Single European Act). They disapply the prohibition on imports of seal skins in section 4 of the Seal Fisheries (North Pacific) Act 1912 in relation to imports from the Member States of the Community.
