Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
EXPLANATORY NOTE
These regulations amend the Plant Health (Import Inspection Fees) (Scotland) Regulations 2014 (“the 2014 Regulations”) and the Plant Health (Fees) (Forestry) (England and Scotland) Regulations 2015 (“the 2015 Regulations”).
Regulation 2 amends the 2014 Regulations. In particular—
- (a) the fees payable by an importer of a consignment originating in a third country in respect of a physical and identity check of plants, plant products or other objects are amended to reflect the frequency rates of physical checks and identity checks of such plants, plant products and other objects determined in accordance with Part 1 of the Official Controls (Plant Health) (Frequency of Checks) Regulations 2022. The fees are set out in a new schedule 1 inserted into the 2014 Regulations.
- (b) existing schedules 1A, 2 and 2ZA, relating specifically to fees payable in respect of physical and identity checks for consignments originating in EU member states, Liechtenstein and Switzerland, and for reduced checks are revoked.
- (c) a new schedule 2 is inserted with a list of plants and plant products which will not require to have import fees charged if they are imported from an EU member state, Liechtenstein or Switzerland.
The table below provides a comparison of changes made to the fees in schedule 1 of the proposed Regulations.
