Agriculture is a devolved power in all 3 cases in the UK (Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland); English agricultural matters are run by an England-only administration (Defra) but under the control of UK Ministers and the UK parliament. The environment is similarly devolved, but habitat conservation status for Article 17 reporting is carried out using a single methodology coordinated by the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC) made up of representatives of the various competent authorities in the four countries.
