Analytical tests for histamine
Article 2
1
Competent authorities shall authorise the import into Great Britain of products referred to in Article 1 only if they are accompanied by the results of an analytical test for histamine carried out in Albania or a foreign accredited laboratory before consignment which reveals histamine levels below the limits set by Regulation (EC) No 2073/2005. These tests must be carried out following the sampling and the analytical method referred in Regulation (EC) No 2073/2005.
2
By way of derogation from paragraph 1, competent authorities shall authorise the import of products referred to in Article 1 that are not accompanied by the results of the analytical test as referred to in paragraph 1 provided that the competent authority ensures that each consignment of those products undergoes tests to verify that the histamine levels are below the limits set by Regulation (EC) No 2073/2005. These tests must be carried out following the sampling and the analytical method referred in Regulation (EC) No 2073/2005. The competent authority shall place the consignment concerned under official detention until it obtains a favourable result.
