Abstract

These Regulations specify maximum levels of pesticide residues which crops, food and feeding stuffs may contain in implementation of Commission Directives 2000/24/EC, 2000/42/EC, 2000/48/EC, 2000/57/EC and 2000/58/EC and amend Community maximum residue levels which have been set previously (reg. 2(2) and (5)). Additionally, these Regulations remove certain maximum levels which were included in Part 1 of Schedule 2 to the Consolidated Regulations and which have been replaced by the Community maximum residue levels now included in Part 2 of that Schedule (reg. 2(4)). Further residue definitions are also introduced (reg. 2(3)).
