Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations, which extend to Scotland only, further amend the Plant Protection Products Regulations 1995 (“the 1995 Regulations”) which implement Council Directive 91/414/EEC concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (“the Directive”).
Regulation 2 amends the definition of “the Directive” in the 1995 Regulations so as to implement–
(a)Commission Directive 2001/99/EC (as from 1st July 2002);
(b)Commission Directive 2001/103/EC (as from 1st October 2002); and
(c)Commission Directive 2002/18/EC (as from 1st January 2003),
which add the active substances glyphosate, thifensulfuron-methyl, 2, 4-D and isoproturon to Annex I of the Directive.
Regulations 3 and 4 make further transitional provision, in addition to the transitional provision for flupyrsulfuron-methyl, acibenzolar-s-methyl and pymetrozine which were made in the Plant Protection Products Amendment (No. 3) (Scotland) Regulations 2001 and the Plant Protection Products Amendment (Scotland) Regulations 2002.
The effect of these Regulations is that where a plant protection product contains one or more of these substances together with another active substance not on the Annex I list, then the provisional approval or extension of provisional approval does not cease to have effect on the cut off date but continues until it expires.
