1. These Regulations, which apply in relation to Wales, further amend the Poultry Meat, Farmed Game Bird Meat and Rabbit Meat (Hygiene and Inspection) Regulations 1995 (S.I. 1995/540, as already amended, which extend to the whole of Great Britain) and implement that part of Article 5(1)(b) of Council Directive 71/118/EEC on health problems affecting the production and placing on the market of fresh poultrymeat (a consolidated text of which is annexed to Council Directive 92/116/EEC (OJ No. L62, 15.3.93, p.1)) that prohibits poultrymeat from being placed on the market for human consumption if it has been treated with water retention agents or obtained under technologically similar conditions and likely as a result to present the same risk.
2. The above prohibition is implemented by making an appropriate amendment to regulation 14(2) of S.I. 1995/540 (regulation 2(2)).
3. These Regulations also make consequential changes to regulation 14(9) of S.I. 1995/540 (regulation 2(3)) and to Schedule 2 to the Products of Animal Origin (Import and Export) Regulations 1996 (S.I. 1996/3124, as already amended) (regulation 3).
4. A regulatory appraisal has been prepared for these Regulations and has been placed in the Library of the National Assembly for Wales, together with a transposition note setting out how the prohibition referred to in paragraph 1 is transposed in these Regulations. Copies may be obtained from the Food Standards Agency, 11th Floor, Southgate House, Cardiff, CF10 1EW.
