(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Official Feed and Food Controls (Scotland) Regulations 2009 by omitting paragraphs (5) to (7) of regulation 12 of those Regulations (regulation 2).
Those paragraphs made provision for a food business operator who may appeal or has appealed against the refusal or withdrawal of an authorisation of a food business establishment to continue to operate the establishment pending the expiry of the time limit to appeal or the outcome of that appeal, as the case may be.
A Business and Regulatory Impact Assessment 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 and online at www.legislation.gov.uk.
