EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations transpose Article 3 of Directive 2008/112/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council amending certain Directives in order to adapt them to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures (“the Directive”). This Article makes minor terminological amendments to Directive 1999/13/EC on the limitation of emissions of volatile organic compounds due to the use of organic solvents in certain activities and installations (O.J. L 85, 29.3.99, p.1 - “the Solvent Emissions Directive”).
The Solvent Emissions Directive was transposed by the Solvent Emissions (Scotland) Regulations 2004, which also amended the Pollution Prevention and Control (Scotland) Regulations 2000 to make provision for activities and installations covered by that Directive. The Solvent Emissions (Scotland) Regulations 2010 therefore transpose Article 3 of the Directive by amending the Solvent Emissions (Scotland) Regulations and the Pollution Prevention and Control (Scotland) Regulations. In line with Article 3 of the Directive, certain amendments will only take effect on 1st December 2010, and others not until 1st June 2015.
No Regulatory Impact Assessment has been prepared for these Regulations as they have no impact on the cost of business.
