(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations, which extend to Scotland only, further amend the Plant Protection Products Regulations 1995 (“the 1995 Regulations”) which implement Council Directive 91/414/EEC concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (“the Directive”).
The Regulations amend the definition of “the Directive” in the 1995 Regulations so as to implement Commission Directive 2001/87/EC which adds the active substances acibenzolar-s-methyl, cyclanilide, ferric phosphate, pymetrozine and pyraflufen-ethyl to Annex I of the Directive (regulation 2).
Regulation 3 makes transitional arrangements for provisional approvals. Its purpose is to disapply regulation 13(5)(a)(i) of the 1995 Regulations. The effect of regulation 3 is that it is not necessary to revoke any provisional approvals of plant protection products that contain either of the active substances acibenzolar-s-methyl and pymetrozine now added to Annex I of the Directive. Any such approvals will remain in effect until replaced by a decision made on an application for a standard approval, subject to a longstop date of 31st March 2003.
Finally, these Regulations revoke a provision in the Plant Protection Products (Amendment) Regulations 1997, which amended the definition of “the Directive” in the 1995 Regulations and which amendment has been superseded (regulation 4).
