These Regulations implement in Wales the provisions of Council Directive 92/119/EEC introducing general Community measures for the control of certain animal diseases and specific measures relating to swine vesicular disease (OJ No. L 62, 15.3.1993, p. 69) in so far as that Directive controls swine vesicular disease and Council Directive 2007/10/EC (OJ No. L 63, 1.3.2007, p. 24). Part 1 is introductory. Part 2 deals with notification of suspicion of swine vesicular disease. Part 3 and Schedule 1 deal with premises where swine vesicular disease is suspected or confirmed, or which have been exposed to the virus. Part 4 deals with slaughterhouses. Part 5 and Schedule 2 make provision for the establishment of protection, surveillance and movement restriction zones following the confirmation of swine vesicular disease on any premises. Part 6 prohibits vaccination against swine vesicular disease except in the circumstances set out there. Part 7 contains provisions relating to inspection and enforcement. Breach of the Regulations is an offence punishable— a on summary conviction, with a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum, imprisonment for a term not exceeding three months or both, or b on conviction on indictment, with a fine or imprisonment for a term not exceeding six months or both. They are enforced by the local authority. A regulatory impact assessment has been prepared and is available from the Welsh Assembly Government, 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.
