Abstract

These Regulations implement for Northern Ireland Commission Decision 2004/4/EC authorising Member States temporarily to take additional measures against the dissemination of Pseudomonas solanacearum (Smith) Smith (now known as Ralstonia solanacearum (Smith) Yabuuchi et al.) as regards Egypt. The Regulations: prohibit the importation into Northern Ireland of potatoes which the importer knows or has reasonable cause to suspect originate in Egypt, unless those potatoes are accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate issued in accordance with the requirements of paragraph 1 of the Annex to Commission Decision 2004/4/EC; and require potatoes originating in Egypt to be processed only in plants approved by the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development for that purpose.
