These Regulations, which come into force on 20 October 2005 make provision in Wales for the implementation of article 6 of Commission Regulation (EC) No. 562/2005 (OJ No. L95, 14.4.2005, p.11) laying down rules for the implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No. 1255/1999 as regards communications between the Member States and the Commission in the milk and milk products sector. Regulation 2 requires milk processors to provide the National Assembly for Wales with such information relating to the prices of certain milk products, as it may require by notice. Failure to comply with such a requirement is an offence punishable on summary conviction by a fine not exceeding level 5 on the standard scale (regulation 3). A full regulatory appraisal on the effect which this instrument will have on the costs of business has been prepared and copies can be obtained from the National Assembly for Wales, Cathays Park, Cardiff CF10 3NQ.

What Parliament said about it

Hansard was searched for this instrument by name and returned nothing. That is the ordinary outcome: an instrument laid under the negative procedure is usually never debated, and becomes law without a word said about it in either House.

How Parliament handled it

Parliament's Statutory Instruments service records procedure from May 2017 onwards, and this instrument predates it. That is a limit of the source, not a statement that nothing happened.
