EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

Regulation 2 amends Commission Decision 2000/572/EC (EUDN 2000/572) to remove the import condition that meat preparations from third countries have been deep-frozen at the production plant or plants of origin.

Regulation 3 revokes, in consequence, provisions of the Meat Preparations (Amendment and Transitory Modification) (England) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020 (S.I. 2020/1666) which modified that import condition.

Regulation 4 amends the Official Controls (Extension of Transitional Periods) Regulations 2021 (S.I. 2021/809) (“the 2021 Regulations”), to change the end date of “the transitional staging period” from 29th April 2024 to 31st January 2025.

“The transitional staging period” is defined in paragraph 2 of Annex 6 to Regulation (EU) 2017/625 of the European Parliament and of the Council on official controls and other official activities performed to ensure the application of food and feed law, rules on animal health and welfare, plant health and plant protection products (EUR 2017/625). In accordance with that definition, the period ends on the date appointed by the Secretary of State. This date was originally appointed in the 2021 Regulations and is now amended by regulation 4.

A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sector is foreseen.
