EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 on the temporary increase of official controls and emergency measures governing the entry into the Union of certain goods from certain third countries.
Regulation 2(2) and (3) inserts provision into Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 concerning the sampling and analyses of food and feed of non-animal origin for the hazard Listeria. Regulation 2(6) and schedule 3 make related provision through the addition of Annex IIIa of Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 which outlines the sampling procedure and analytical reference method for the control of the presence of Listeria in food.
Regulation 2(4) provides that Annex I of Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 is substituted, with amendments, with the Annex in schedule 1 which contains a list which sets out food and feed of non-animal origin from certain third countries which is subject to a temporary increase of official controls at border controls posts and control points in Great Britain.
Regulation 2(5) provides that Annex II of Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 is substituted, with amendments, with the Annex in schedule 2. The Annex in schedule 2 comprises two tables. Table 1 contains the list of food and feed from certain third countries subject to special conditions for entry into Great Britain due to contamination risk by mycotoxins, including aflatoxins, pesticide residues, pentachlorophenol and dioxins and microbiological contamination. Table 2 contains the list of compound food containing any of the food listed in Table 1 of Annex 2 due to the risk of contamination by aflatoxins in a quantity above 20% of either a single product or as the sum of those products.
