(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations revoke, in relation to Wales, (at regulation 12) and remake with amendments provisions of the Food Safety (Sampling and Qualifications) Regulations 1990 (S.I. 1990/2463).
The Regulations —
(a)specify the qualifications necessary to be a public analyst or food analyst (regulation 4) or food examiner (regulation 5 and Schedule 2) for the purposes of the Food Safety Act 1990;
(b)prohibit specified persons from carrying out analyses or examinations (regulation 6);
(c)specify the procedures to be followed when a sample has been procured under that Act for analysis or examination (regulations 7, 8 and 9), and exclude from these procedures samples taken under Regulations which have their own procedures (regulation 3 and Schedule 1); and
(d)prescribe the form of certificate to be used by analysts and examiners in making their reports (regulation 10 and Schedule 3).
The Regulations also make consequential amendments to other Regulations (regulation 11).
The Welsh Ministers' Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, a regulatory assessment has been prepared as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations.
