EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations implement Commission Implementing Directive 2013/45/EU (O.J. L 213, 8.8.2013, p.20) amending the botanical name of tomato.
Regulation 2 amends regulation 3 (definitions relating to plant species) of the Vegetable Seeds Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2009 in relation to the definition for tomato.
These Regulations also implement Commission Implementing Directive 2012/37/EU (O.J. L 325, 22.11.2012, p.13). They amend the Fodder Plant Seeds Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2009 (“the principle Regulations”) in order to permit the increase of the maximum weight of a seed lot of certain fodder plant species.
Regulation 4 amends regulation 2 of the principle Regulations in relation to the definition of the Fodder Plant Seeds Directive.
Regulation 5 makes minor amendments to regulation 25 of the principle Regulations to provide for references to new regulation 25A and to replace an incorrect reference in paragraph (4).
Regulation 6 inserts a new regulation 25A after regulation 25 of the principle Regulations to provide a procedure whereby a registered person may apply to the Department for approval to increase the maximum weight of a seed lot for grasses to 25 tonnes.
No impact assessments have been prepared for these Regulations, as the amendments effect no significant changes in Northern Ireland.
