EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations, which apply in relation to Wales, come into force on 28 August 2007. They amend the Marketing of Vegetable Plant Material Regulations 1995 (S.I. 1995/2652) ("the principal Regulations"), to update the list of genera and species of plant material to which those Regulations apply. This gives effect to Article 1 of Commission Directive 2006/124/EC (OJ No. L 339, 6.12.2006, p.12) which amends Annex II to Council Directive 92/33/EEC (OJ No. L 157, 10.6.1992, p.1) on the marketing of vegetable propagating and planting material other than seed, by extending its scope to Zea Mays L. (popcorn and sweetcorn).
In addition to minor and drafting amendments, regulation 2 provides that the principal Regulations apply to the list of genera and species in Annex II to Council Directive 92/33/EEC.
A regulatory impact assessment has been carried out in relation to these Regulations. Copies of that assessment can be obtained from the Welsh Assembly Government, Cathays Park, Cardiff CF10 3NQ.
