Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations.)

These Regulations correct a technical defect in regulation 99 of the Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2002 (“the 2002 Regulations”). Paragraph (1) of that regulation makes it an offence to contravene any requirement or prohibition of the 2002 Regulations but only where such a contravention was not an offence under any other provision of those Regulations. The following paragraph, as originally made, provided penalties for offences created by paragraph (1) but not for offences created by the other provisions of the 2002 Regulations. These Regulations amend regulation 99(2) of the 2002 Regulations to make it clear that the penalties provided thereunder apply in the case of all offences under the 2002 Regulations.
