PLANT HEALTH

This Order which comes into operation on 2nd March 1998, further amends the Plant Health Order (Northern Ireland) 1993 (“the 1993 Order”). This includes Commission Directive 95/44/EC, which lays down rules for the import of material, for trial or scientific purposes and for work on varietal selections, which would otherwise be banned. This Directive has now been amended by Commission Directive 97/46/EC to incorporate provisions on potato breeding material which were previously included in a separate, temporary, Commission Decision. The effect of the change is to convert the temporary arrangements into a permanent part of the regime. (Article 2(2)).
