The Committee determined that it did not need to draw the attention of the Parliament to the delegated powers in the following provisions:
Section 4 – inserting new section 76A into the Animal Health Act 1981 (fixed penalty notices for certain offences relating to animal health)
Section 10A – Fixed penalty notices for certain wildlife offences
Section 11 – inserting new subsections 32K(4) and (5) into the 2006 Act (forfeiture of compensation)
Section 11 – inserting new section 32L into the 2006 Act (modification of powers over animals)
The Committee therefore reports that it is content with the delegated powers provisions contained in the Bill.
