The Ceramic Articles in Contact with Food (Scotland) Regulations 2006

Status:

Dyma’r fersiwn wreiddiol (fel y’i gwnaed yn wreiddiol).

Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations apply to ceramic articles which are intended to come into contact with food. They set limits on the amount of lead and cadmium which may migrate from such articles, lay down requirements for testing ceramic articles and require them to be accompanied at the marketing stages (including the retail stage) by certificates of compliance.

These Regulations implement Council Directive 84/500/EEC on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to ceramic articles intended to come into contact with foodstuffs (O.J. L 277 of 20.10.84 p.12) as amended by Commission Directive 2005/31/EC regarding a declaration of compliance and performance criteria of the analytical method for ceramic articles intended to come into contact with foodstuffs (O.J. L 110 of 30.4.05 p.36). The former Directive was previously implemented by the Ceramic Ware (Safety) Regulations 1988 (S.I. 1988/1647) which these Regulations revoke in so far as they extend to Scotland at regulation 8.

The 1988 Regulations applied to the United Kingdom. These Regulations extend to Scotland. Corresponding Regulations are being made for Northern Ireland, England and Wales.

Regulation 2 defines “ceramic article”. Regulation 3 and Schedule 1 limit the quantities of lead and cadmium which may be transferred by a ceramic article and Schedule 2 sets out how tests are to be carried out. Regulation 4 requires a written declaration of compliance to accompany a ceramic article or articles not yet in contact with food at all marketing stages up to the retail stage. The details of the declaration are set out in Schedule 3. The Regulation also requires the manufacturer or importer into the Community to keep appropriate documentation to show that the article complies with the requirements of Schedule 1.

Regulation 5 provides that the Regulations are to be enforced by food authorities in their respective areas. Regulation 6 sets out the penalties for failure to comply with the Regulations and the defences that are available. Regulation 7 sets out the provisions of the Food Safety Act 1990 which are applied for the purposes of the Regulations.

A full regulatory impact assessment, which includes a compliance cost assessment of the effect which these Regulations will have on business costs, has been prepared and placed in the Scottish Parliament Information Centre. Copies may be obtained from the Food Standards Agency (Scotland), 6th Floor, St Magnus House, 25 Guild Street, Aberdeen, AB11 6NJ.
