Abstract

These Regulations serve to implement the provisions of Council Regulation (EEC) No. 2455/92 for those pesticides which are covered by the Council Regulation, introduce necessary enforcement powers and make provision for the penalties that may be applied by the courts in the event of infringements. These Regulations apply to any pesticide which is or contains a chemical subject to notification being any of the chemical substances listed in Annex I to the Council Regulation of 1992, and preparations containing any of these chemicals if the preparation has a labelling obligation under Community legislation as a result of the presence of the Annex I chemical. Exporters shall comply with the decision of the country of destination participating in the Prior Informed Consent procedure and accordingly shall not export a pesticide which is or contains a chemical listed in the first column of Annex II, to a country listed in the second column of that Annex, where the final import decision listed in the third column for that country is to prohibit imports.
