Abstract

These Regulations amend the Forest Reproductive Material (Great Britain) Regulations 2002 in relation to England and Scotland. They implement Community legislation on equivalence of forest reproductive materials and of the guarantees afforded by forest reproductive material to be imported from certain third countries. No person may import forest reproductive material into England or Scotland from a third country for the purpose of marketing unless: (a) it has been produced in an EU-approved third country or a permitted third country; (b) it is permitted material; and (c) the requirements set out in Schedule 13 are met on entry. Other amendments of these Regulations concern, among other things, identification and separation of forest reproductive material during production, labelling and packaging of lots for marketing and other matters concern marketing authorization for forest reproductive material.
