The Food Hygiene (Wales) (Amendment) Regulations 2016

EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations make various amendments to the Food Hygiene (Wales) Regulations 2006 (S.I. 2006/31 (W. 5)) to provide for the execution and enforcement in Wales of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/1375 laying down specific rules on official controls for Trichinella in meat (OJ No L 212, 11.8.2015, p 7).

The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, it was not considered necessary to carry out a regulatory impact assessment as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations.
