[F1Article 3 U.K.

[F21. The standard statistical method for assessing the lean meat content of pig carcases authorised as a grading method within the meaning of Article 2(3) of Regulation (EEC) No 3220/84 shall be either ordinary least squares or rank reduced methods, but other statistically proven methods may be used.

The method shall be based on a representative sample of the national or regional pigmeat production concerned, consisting of at least 120 carcases whose lean meat content has been ascertained in accordance with the dissection method laid down in Annex I to this Regulation. If multiple sampling methods are used, the reference shall be measured on at least 50 carcases and the precision shall be at least equal to that obtained using the standard statistical method on 120 carcases using the method in Annex I.

2. Grading methods shall be authorised only if the root mean squared error of prediction (RMSEP), computed by a full cross-validation technique, is less than 2,5. In addition, any outliers shall be included in the calculation of RMSEP.]

3. Member States shall inform the Commission, by way of a protocol, of the grading methods they wish to have authorized for application in their territory, describing the dissection trial and indicating the principles on which these methods are based and the equations used for assessing the percentage of lean meat. The protocol should have two parts and should include the elements provided for in Annex II. Part one of the protocol is presented to the Commission prior to the start of the dissection trial.

Application of grading methods in the territory of a Member State shall be authorized in accordance with the procedure provided for in Article 24 of Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 on the basis of the protocol.

4. The application of grading methods must correspond in all particulars to the description given in the Community Decision authorizing them.]
