F1 EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order amends the Plant Health (England) Order 2005 (S.I. 2005/2530) (“the principal order”).

Article 2(2) makes minor amendments to the matters which are required to be notified under article 19(4) of the principal order. Certain matters are no longer required to be included in the notification.

Article 2(3) makes provision to prohibit a person from landing in England certain plants which have been grown or are suspected to have been grown in another member State or in Switzerland, unless prior written notification has been given to an authorised inspector.

Article 2(4) makes minor amendments to article 22 of the principal order to reflect paragraph numbering.

A preliminary assessment of the impact of article 2(3) on business, the voluntary sector and the public sector is included in the Explanatory Memorandum for this instrument, which is available alongside the instrument on www.legislation.gov.uk. No separate impact assessment for article 2(2) of this instrument has been produced as no impact on business, the voluntary sector or the public sector is foreseen.
