EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations correct the Cosmetic Products (Safety) Regulations 2004 (“the Principal Regulations”) by inserting 2 symbols into Schedule 9 to those Regulations. The Principal Regulations give effect to Council Directive 76/768/EEC (O.J. No. L262, 27.9.76, p.169) on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to cosmetic products, as amended by the Community instruments listed in Schedule 2 to those Regulations.

Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 9 to the Principal Regulations are intended to contain 2 symbols (an open book and an open jar) which manufacturers are required to place on certain cosmetic products pursuant to regulation 7(2)(c), (6) and (11) of the Principal Regulations. These symbols were omitted from the Principal Regulations by error and are inserted into Schedule 9 to the Principal Regulations by these Regulations.

A regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument. A full regulatory impact assessment of the effect that the Principal Regulations will have on costs to business is available from the Consumer and Competition Policy Directorate of the Department of Trade and Industry, 1 Victoria Street, London SW1H 0ET.
