(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations principally make amendments to the BSE Monitoring (Scotland) Regulations 2001 (S.S.I. 2001/231).
The amendments give effect to the obligations in article 1.1 of Commission Regulation (EC) No. 1248/2001 (O.J. No. L 173, 27.6.2001, p.12) amending Annex III to Regulation (EC) No. 999/2001 (O.J. No. L 147 31.5.2001, p.1) as regards epidemio-surveillance and testing of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies.
These require member States to ensure that certain categories of bovine animals over 24 months of age are examined in accordance with the prescribed minimum requirements for monitoring BSE. The definition of “notifiable bovine animal” has been amended to reflect the change in age of animals to which the obligation applies, with consequential amendments to substitute that term in the Cattle Identification Regulations 1998 and the Cattle (Identification of Older Animals) Regulations 2001.
A Regulatory Impact Assessment for these Regulations has been prepared and placed in the Scottish Parliament Information Centre. Copies may be obtained from SEERAD, Robb’s Loan, Edinburgh EH14 1TY.
