The Regulations, which apply to Great Britain, come into force on 3rd December 1991.
The Regulations amend the Antioxidants in Food Regulations 1978 and the Antioxidants in Food (Scotland) Regulations 1978 by providing that it shall be a defence to proceedings under those Regulations in respect of any chewing gum manufactured from chewing gum base containing the permitted antioxidant Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) (either alone or in combination with Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT)) for an offence against regulation 4 of those Regulations that such chewing gum is imported from another Member State of the European Economic Community in which it could lawfully have been sold, consigned or (as the case may be) delivered (Regulation 3).
