The principal Regulations prohibit the use of lead shot for shooting with a shot gun: (a) on or over any area below the high-water mark; (b) on or over the sites of special scientific interest included in Schedule 1 to the principal Regulations; (c) any wild bird included in Schedule 2 to the principal Regulations. Regulation 2(2) of these Regulations substitutes a new Schedule 1 to the principal Regulations, providing a revised list of sites of special scientific interest to which the prohibition on the use of lead shot applies. Regulation 2(3) removes golden plover and common snipe from Schedule 2 of the principal Regulations.
