EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of these Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Pesticides (Maximum Residue Levels in Crops, Food and Feeding Stuffs) (England and Wales) Regulations 2005 (S.I. 2005/3286) (“the 2005 Regulations”) in order to transpose—

(a)Commission Directive 2007/27/EC amending certain Annexes to Council Directives 86/362/EEC, 86/363/EEC and 90/642/EEC as regards maximum residue levels for etoxazole, indoxacarb, mesosulfuron, 1-methylcyclopropene, MCPA and MCPB, tolylfluanid and triticonazole (OJ No L 128, 16.5.2007, p. 31);

(b)Commission Directive 2007/28/EC amending certain Annexes to Council Directives 86/363/EEC and 90/642/EEC as regards maximum residue levels for azoxystrobin, chlorfenapyr, folpet, iprodione, lambda-cyhalothrin, maleic hydrazide, metalaxy-M and trifloxystrobin (OJ No L 135, 26.5.2007, p. 6); and

(c)Commission Directive 2007/39/EC amending Annex II to Council Directive 90/642/EEC as regards maximum residue levels for diazinon (OJ No L 165, 27.6.2007, p. 25).

These Regulations substitute or insert—

(a)residue definitions for certain pesticides in Schedule 1 to the 2005 Regulations which identify the pesticide residues that are taken into account in the measuring of residue levels for each pesticide; and

(b)maximum residue levels for certain pesticides in Schedule 2 to the 2005 Regulations.

Regulations 4(2)(c) and 7 correct errors in the Pesticides (Maximum Residue Levels in Crops, Food and Feeding Stuffs) (England and Wales) (Amendment) (No. 2) Regulations 2007 (S.I. 2007/2083).

A Regulatory Impact Assessment (RIA) was prepared for the 2005 Regulations and provides a basis for establishing the impact of amendments of the kind made by these Regulations. A consultation in 2003 indicated that compliance costs were virtually unchanged from those quoted in an RIA prepared in 1999. Copies of the RIA prepared in 2005 can be obtained from the Pesticides Safety Directorate, Room 308, Mallard House, Kings Pool, 3 Peasholme Green, York, YO1 7PX or via the website www.pesticides.gov.uk. Copies have been placed in the library of each House of Parliament.

(1)

In relation to England by S.I. 1972/1811 and in relation to Wales by S.I. 2005/2766. By virtue of sections 59(1) and 162 of, and paragraphs 28 and 30 of Schedule 11 to, the Government of Wales Act 2006 (c. 32), functions conferred on the National Assembly for Wales are exercisable by the Welsh Ministers.
