Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
1. These Regulations, which extend to England only, amend the Miscellaneous Food Additives Regulations 1995, as already amended (“the principal Regulations”), which extend to the whole of Great Britain.
2. These Regulations implement Commission Directive 2002/82/EC amending Directive 96/77/EC laying down specific purity criteria on food additives other than colours and sweeteners (OJ No. L292, 28.10.2002, p.1).
3. These Regulations specify new purity criteria in relation to the additives specified in the Annex to Commission Directive 2002/82/EC (regulation 2) and make related amendments to certain Regulations as regards references in those Regulations to the principal Regulations (regulation 3).
4. No regulatory impact assessment has been prepared in respect of these Regulations. A transposition note setting out how the main elements of Directive 2002/82/EC are transposed into domestic law by these Regulations has been prepared and placed in the library of each House of Parliament. Copies may be obtained from the Food Additives Branch, Chemical Safety and Toxicology Division of the Food Standards Agency, Aviation House, 125 Kingsway, London WC2B 6NH.
