These Regulations provide for the execution and enforcement in Scotland of Regulation (EC) No. 882/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council on official controls performed to ensure the verification of compliance with feed and food law, animal health and animal welfare rules in relation to "relevant feed law" and "relevant food law", as defined in regulation 2(1). The Regulations also impose prohibitions on the introduction of certain feed and food into Scotland in the light of Article 11 of Regulation (EC) No. 178/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council laying down the general principles and requirements of food law, establishing the European Food Safety Authority and laying down procedures in matters of food safety. The Regulations also amend the General Food Regulations 2004 in so far as they apply in relation to Scotland, to provide for the execution and enforcement there of Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No. 178/2002, which imposes conditions on the export and re–export of food and feed from the Community for placing on the market of third countries, in so far as that Article relates to food.
