Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the Environmentally Sensitive Areas (Lake District) Designation Order 1993 (S.I. 1993/85) (“the principal Order”), which designated an area in the Lake District as an environmentally sensitive area, in implementation of Council Regulation (EEC) No. 2078/92 (OJ No. L215, 30.7.92, p. 85) on agricultural production methods compatible with the requirements of protection of the environment and the maintenance of the countryside, as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No. 2772/95 (OJ No. L288, 1.12.95, p. 35) as in turn rectified by Commission Regulation (EC) No. 1962/96 (OJ No. L259, 12.10.96, p. 7).
This Order corrects an error made in the Environmentally Sensitive Areas (Lake District) Designation (Amendment) Order 1998 (S.I. 1998/1301) in citing the title to the principal Order incorrectly.
No regulatory appraisal has been made in respect of this Order.
