(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations, which apply throughout Great Britain, amend the Arable Area Payments Regulations 1994 by amending the locally recognised standards established for the purpose of Commission Regulation (EEC) No. 2294/92 (OJ No L221, 6.8.92, p.22) in relation to the Community’s rapeseed quality improvement policy. Farmers who sow their land with rapeseed must comply with these standards in order to qualify for compensatory payments. The effect of the amendment is that the minimum distance required between crops of high erucic rapeseed and OO rapeseed is abolished where one crop is winter sown and the other is spring sown and is reduced from 100 metres to 50 metres in other cases.
This measure reduces existing burdens on farmers. A Compliance Cost Assessment has therefore not been prepared.
