These Regulations, which extend to Scotland only, amend the Food (Peanuts from China) (Emergency Control) (Scotland) (No. 2) Regulations 2002 (S.S.I. 2002/425) (“the principal Regulations”).

These Regulations implement Commission Decision 2003/550/EC (O.J. No. L 187, 26.7.2003, p.39) which further amends Commission Decision 2002/79/EC.
The principal changes effected by these Regulations are that–
(a)the period for which consignments subject to sampling and analysis may be detained is increased from 10 to 15 working days; and
(b)where a consignment is split, copies of the health certificate and analysis certificate must accompany each part of the consignment. (Regulation 2).
