These Regulations implement two Commission Directives concerned with the purity criteria for certain food additives—
(a)Commission Directive 2010/37/EU amending Directive 2008/60/EC laying down specific purity criteria on sweeteners (O.J. L 152, 18.6.2010, p.12); and
(b)Commission Directive 2010/67/EU amending Directive 2008/84/EC laying down specific purity criteria on food additives other than colours and sweeteners (O.J. L 277, 21.10.2010, p.17).
These Regulations make amendments to regulation 2 (interpretation) of the Food Additives (Scotland) Regulations 2009 so that references to Directive 2008/60/EC and Directive 2008/84/EC include the relevant amending Commission Directive (regulation 2(2)).
A Business and Regulatory Impact Assessment has not been prepared for this instrument as it has no impact on the costs of business.
1990 c.16. Section 1(1) and (2) (definition of “food”) was substituted by S.I. 2004/2990. Sections 17(1) and 48(1) were amended by paragraph 8 of Schedule 5 to the Food Standards Act 1999 (c.28). Section 17(1) was also amended by paragraph 12 of Schedule 5 to the 1999 Act. Section 48(4) is disapplied in respect of these Regulations by virtue of section 48(4C) which was inserted by S.I. 2004/2990. By virtue of section 40(2) of the 1999 Act, amendments made by Schedule 5 to that Act are to be taken as pre-commencement enactments for the purposes of the Scotland Act 1998 (c.46). The functions of the Secretary of State, in so far as within devolved competence, were transferred to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of section 53 of the 1998 Act.
