Résumé

"Mammalian meat and bone meal" means mammalian protein derived from the whole or part of any dead mammal by the process of rendering. These Regulations continue to make provision for control in the public interest of the sale of mammalian meat and bone meal for use as a fertilizer on agricultural land (reg. 3). Differing from the 1996 Regulations, which they revoke and re-enact with amendments, these Regulations introduce a provision prohibiting generally in the public interest, with a specified exception relating to existing stocks of mammalian meat and bone meal, the sale or possession with view to sale for use as a fertilizer on land other than agricultural land, and the use as a fertilizer on such land, of mammalian meat and bone meal or material deriving from or containing same unless the mammalian meat and bone meal concerned has been manufactured in accordance with regulation 3 of the fertilizers (Mammalian Meat and Bone Meal) (Conditions of Manufacture) Regulations 1998 (S.I. 1998/954) (reg. 4). It is an offence under section 74A(3) of the Agriculture Act 1970 to contravene the provisions of these Regulations.
