Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 (\"http://www.legislation.gov.uk/european/regulation/2019/1793\") on the temporary increase of official controls and emergency measures governing the entry into the Union of certain goods from certain third countries implementing Regulations (EU) 2017/625 (\"http://www.legislation.gov.uk/european/regulation/2017/0625\") and (EC) No 178/2002 (\"http://www.legislation.gov.uk/european/regulation/2002/0178\") of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Commission Regulations (EC) No 669/2009 (\"http://www.legislation.gov.uk/european/regulation/2009/0669\"), (EU) No 884/2014 (\"http://www.legislation.gov.uk/european/regulation/2014/0884\"), (EU) 2015/175 (\"http://www.legislation.gov.uk/european/regulation/2015/0175\"), (EU) 2017/186 (\"http://www.legislation.gov.uk/european/regulation/2017/0186\") and (EU) 2018/1660 (\"http://www.legislation.gov.uk/european/regulation/2018/1660\"), in relation to England (“EUR 2019/1793 (\"http://www.legislation.gov.uk/european/regulation/2019/1793\")”).

Regulation 2 updates the lists of high-risk food and feed of non-animal origin in Annexes I and II to EUR 2019/1793 (\"http://www.legislation.gov.uk/european/regulation/2019/1793\"). Regulation 2(6) and (7), and Schedules 1 and 2, substitute those Annexes.

In addition to substituting the lists in Annexes I and II to EUR 2019/1793 (\"http://www.legislation.gov.uk/european/regulation/2019/1793\"), insofar as they apply to England, these Regulations amend the presentation of the codes used to identify the food and feed subject to controls. References to “Combined Nomenclature (CN) codes” and “TARIC sub-divisions” are updated to a single “commodity code” to align with the United Kingdom’s Integrated Tariff system. The lists are amended to remove the “ex” markings from certain commodities which are not required as a result of adopting the UK's Integrated Tariff system post EU-Exit. The Annexes are now updated to align the presentation of the commodity codes with the UK's Integrated Tariff system. Table footnotes have been revised to streamline references to analytical methods and pesticide residue controls.

Annex I to EUR 2019/1793 (\"http://www.legislation.gov.uk/european/regulation/2019/1793\") contains the list of food and feed of non-animal origin subject to a temporary increase in official controls at border control posts or control points in Great Britain. The changes include the addition of new commodities, removal of certain commodities, and adjustments to the frequency of identity and physical checks based on risk assessment and consultation.

Annex II to EUR 2019/1793 (\"http://www.legislation.gov.uk/european/regulation/2019/1793\") contains the list of food and feed of non-animal origin subject to special conditions for entry into Great Britain due to contamination risks, and a list of compound foods containing those products. The changes include the transfer of certain commodities from Annex I to Annex II, the addition of new entries, and updates to footnotes.

In each Schedule, standards are specified within some footnotes to show requirements for the analytical methods and laboratories used. The documents referred to have been published online and the online addresses are specified under each footnote where relevant. Hard copies of these documents are available for inspection at the Food Standards Agency, 64 Victoria Street, London SW1H 9EX, at reasonable times, following a written request to that address or to xxx@xxx.xx (\"mailto:xxx@xxx.xx\").
