Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Order.)
This Order further amends the Food Protection (Emergency Prohibitions) Order (Northern Ireland) 1991 (the ‘principal order') which contains emergency prohibitions on various activities in order to prevent human consumption of food which is derived from sheep in the designated areas in Northern Ireland and which has been or may have been rendered unsuitable for human consumption in consequence of the elevated levels of radioactivity found in those areas following the escape of radioactive substances from a nuclear reactor situated at Chernobyl in the Ukraine.
The effect of this Order is that Glenwherry, County Antrim is no longer a designated area, and that the restrictions set out in the principal order no longer apply to it.
