Abstract

The principal Regulations are amended so as to implement recent Community legislation. The main changes to the principal Regulations are as follows: (a) the controls on the sale and possession with a view to sale of compound feeding stuffs are extended to cover their supply other than by sale, and their possession with a view to such supply (regs. 6, 7, 12 and 16; (b) prohibitions are added on the importation, supply, possession with a view to such supply and use of feed materials harmful to animals, to humans consuming products of such animals or to the environment. As regards the environment, the prohibition is applied also to sale and possession with a view to sale (reg. 8); (c) the prohibition on the sale for use as a compound feeding stuff, or of "sludge from sewage plants treating waste water", is replaced by one on the sale or use of "waste obtained from the treatment of waste water" (reg. 11); (d) additional labelling requirements are prescribed for feed material and compound feeding stuffs (reg. 16); (e) the scope of certain provisions, previously applying only in relation to member States of the European Community, is extended to cover all States which are signatories to the Agreement on the European Economic Area (regs. 5, 10 and 17).
