1.  These Regulations further amend the Poultry Meat, Farmed Game Bird Meat and Rabbit Meat (Hygiene and Inspection) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1995 (S.R. 1995 No. 396, as already amended) and implement that part of Article 5.1(b) of Council Directive 71/118/EEC on health problems affecting the production and placing on the market of fresh poultrymeat (a consolidated text of which is annexed to Council Directive 92/116/EEC [O.J. No. L62, 15.3.93, p. 1]) that prohibits poultrymeat from being placed on the market for human consumption if it has been treated with water retention agents or obtained under technologically similar conditions and likely as a result to present the same risk.

2.  The above prohibition is implemented by making an appropriate amendment to regulation 13(2) of S.R. 1995 No. 396 (regulation 3(2)).

3.  These Regulations also make consequential changes to regulation 13(9) of S.R. 1995 No. 396 (regulation 3(3)) and to Schedule 2 to the Products of Animal Origin (Import and Export) Regulations (N.I.) 1998 (S.R. 1998 No. 45) (regulation 4).
