The Agricultural Wages (Abolition of Permits to Incapacitated Persons) Regulations 2004
These Regulations implement provisions of Council Directive 2000/78/EC of 27 November 2000 establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation (OJ No. L303, 2.12.2000, p.16) in so far as it relates to disability discrimination in the payment of agricultural wages.
