Abstract

The Regulations implement Commission Decision 2002/79/EC imposing special conditions on the import of peanuts and certain products derived from peanuts originating in, or consigned from China as amended. They prohibit the importation of Chinese peanuts except under certain conditions. The principal changes effected by these Regulations are that: (a) the previous requirement that each consignment of Chinese peanuts be identified by a code is now applied to each bag or other type of packaging, making up the consignment concerned; (b) the previous requirement that each consignment of Chinese peanuts be subjected to sampling and analysis in order to ensure compliance with Commission Decision 2002/79/EC is modified with respect to methods of sampling and detainment of consignments.
