EXPLANATORY NOTE
These Regulations are made in exercise of the powers conferred by paragraph 11A(1) of Schedule 2 to the Trade in Animals and Related Products (Wales) Regulations 2011 (S.I. 2011/2379 (W. 252)).
Regulation 2 amends the date in regulation 3(1) of the Meat Preparations (Amendment and Transitory Modification) (Wales) (EU Exit) Regulations 2021 (S.I. 2021/1 (W. 1)) in order to extend the effect of those Regulations, which, in relation to imports originating from or produced in, establishments situated in EEA member States, the Faroe Islands, Greenland or Switzerland, temporarily suspend the requirement for meat preparations imported into Wales to be deep frozen. That requirement is imposed by Article 3(3) of Commission Decision 2000/572/EC of 8 September 2000 laying down the animal and public health and veterinary certification conditions for imports of meat preparations into the Community from third countries (EUDN 2000/572). The extension of the suspension is until midnight on 31 December 2021. The date had previously been amended by the Meat Preparations (Amendment and Transitory Modification) (Wales) (EU Exit) (Amendment) Regulations 2021 (S.I. 2021/376 (W. 117)).
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.
