Regulation 3(2) substitutes a revised definition of “product” in regulation 21 to provide that food and feed of non-animal origin regulated under Article 47(1)(d), (e) or (f) of Regulation 2017/625 is included in the scope of Part 3. Regulation 3(3) makes a consequential amendment as a result of the revised definition.
Regulation 3(4) amends regulation 34 to make provision for the payment of costs of official controls under Article 79(2)(a) and (c) of Regulation 2017/625 in respect of Part 3.
These Regulations will also amend the Animal Feed (Composition, Marketing and Use) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2016 (S.R 2016 No.4) and the Animal Feed (Hygiene, Sampling etc. and Enforcement) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2016 (S.R. 2016 No. 5) to provide for the execution and enforcement of Commission Regulation (EU) 2020/354 establishing a list of intended uses of feed intended for particular nutritional purposes and repealing Directive 2008/38/EC (OJ No. L67, 5.3.2020, p.1.).
These Regulations substitute references to Regulation 2017/625 for references to Regulation 882/2004 in the Animal Feed (Hygiene, Sampling etc. and Enforcement) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2016 (S.R.2016 No.4). Regulation 2017/625 revoked and replaced Regulation 882/2004.
