Abstract

These Regulations consist very largely of provisions which are consequential on Regulation (EC) No. 1774/2002 laying down health rules concerning animal by-products not intended for human consumption and on the Regulations which provide for the enforcement of that Regulation in relation to Wales, namely the Animal By-Products (Wales) Regulations 2003.
