Abstract

These Regulations amend the Oil and Fibre Plant Seed (England) Regulations 2002 (“ the principal Regulations”). The amendments to those Regulations give effect in England to Commission Directive 2003/45/EC. Regulation 2: (a) includes hybrids of all oil and fibre plant species within the definition of basic seed; (b) repeals the specific numerical varietal identity, varietal purity and crop standards for hybrids of turnip rape; (c) repeals the specific numerical varietal identity and varietal purity standards for self-incompatible hybrids of swede rape; (d) introduces crop standards for hybrids of swede rape; (e) removes the provision for an application to be made for the field inspection of a late entered crop of hybrid swede rape; (f) amends labelling requirements for varietal associations; (g) includes hemp seeds within the scope of the 2002 Regulations; and (h) introduces specific standards for hemp. Regulation 3 makes consequential amendments to the Seed (Registration, Licensing and Enforcement) (England) Regulations 2002, S.I. 2002/3176.
