Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

EXPLANATORY NOTE

These Regulations revoke, in relation to Wales, retained Regulation (EU) 2016/6 imposing special conditions governing the import of feed and food originating in or consigned from Japan following the accident at the Fukushima nuclear power station. They also revoke two further retained EU Regulations, which originally amended Regulation (EU) 2016/6 and which contain transitional provision.

These Regulations also revoke Declaration OFFC 2019/W/04, which was originally issued by the Food Standards Agency to part implement Regulation (EU) 2016/6 in relation to Wales. A copy of the Declaration can be obtained from the Food Standards Agency at the below address, or by email at regulated.products.wales@food.gov.uk.

The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, a regulatory impact assessment has been prepared as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations. A copy can be obtained from the Food Standards Agency at: Food Standards Agency Wales, 11th Floor, Southgate House, Wood Street, Cardiff, CF10 1EW or from the Agency’s website at www.food.gov.uk .
