Abstract

These Regulations, which apply to Wales, amend the Food for Specific Groups (Information and Compositional Requirements) (Wales) Regulations 2016 in order to provide for the enforcement in domestic law of the provisions of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/128. References in the 2016 Regulations to the Delegated Regulation are to the Delegated Regulation as it applies to food for special medical purposes including that developed to satisfy the nutritional requirements of infants. The Regulations provide new transitional arrangements which ensure that stocks of food for special medical purposes which were labelled or placed on the market before the date of application of provisions of the Delegated Regulation may continue to be marketed until those stocks are exhausted.
