The Endangered Species (Import and Export) Act 1976 (Amendment) Regulations 1996
These Regulations are made in consequence of Council Regulation 3626/82 on the implementation in the Community of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of wild fauna and flora (OJ No. L 384, 31.12.1982, p.1; relevant amending instruments are OJ No. L 87, 31.3.88, p.67, OJ No. L 57, 15.3.95, p.l, OJ No. L 284, 28.11.95, p.3.) (“the EC CITES Regulation”). Their effect is to disapply the Endangered Species (Import and Export) Act 1976 (“the Act”) insofar as it has been superseded by the EC CITES Regulation.
