Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer. I move the motions.

Two sets of regulations are scheduled for debate. The first is the Trade in Animals and Related Products (Wales) (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020. Part 2 of the regulations amend the Trade in Animals and Related Products (Wales) Regulations 2011 to ensure they operate effectively once the UK leaves the EU. The regulations amend redundant references to EU laws and systems that no longer will be relevant at the end of the implementation period. These amendments are necessary to ensure a functioning system for the importation of live animals, products of animal origin, animal byproducts and germplasm, whilst maintaining biosecurity, protecting animal and human health and animal welfare standards. The proposed amendments maintain the existing import regime at the end of the implementation period. The regulations also introduce transitional arrangements for specified territories by inserting a new Schedule 5 to the 2011 regulations to phase in official controls on imports from those countries subject to special transitional measures. Part 3 of the instrument makes consequential amendments to other statutory instruments following the amendments proposed in Part 2.

Turning to the Direct Payments to Farmers and Rural Affairs (Miscellaneous Amendments etc.) (Wales) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020, Parts 2 to 5 amend retained EU legislation, Welsh and domestic, UK, legislation to ensure the continued delivery of the basic payment scheme in Wales for claim year 2021 and beyond, prior to the introduction of new agricultural support based on sustainable land management.

The provisions establish a simpler legislative framework based on retained EU law. These changes will allow the Welsh Government to continue to support the competitiveness of farming and food production, whilst responding to the climate emergency, reversing biodiversity decline and ensuring high standards of animal health and welfare and protecting natural resources. Among other amendments, the regulations allow for greening practices to be delivered by cross compliance, with the greening ceiling being added to the total BPS ceiling. The regulations amend the process by which the BPS financial ceilings are set, and Welsh Ministers will determine and publish the ceiling each year. The regulations also make administrative amendments to BPS to ensure it is effective and efficient.

Part 6 corrects minor errors in existing EU exit SIs to ensure the provisions come into force as envisaged. Since laying the regulations, we've become aware a minor non-operative change is required to a footnote and, assuming the regulations are passed, this change will be made before the regulations are made. Diolch.
