(This note is not part of the Regulations.)
These Regulations amend the Feedingstuffs (Zootechnical Products) Regulations 1999 (“the 1999 Regulations”). The 1999 Regulations (as amended) continue to implement, in relation to zootechnical additives and products with those additives in them, a number of Community instruments including in particular Council Directive 95/69/EC (O.J. No. L332, 30.12.95, p. 15) laying down the conditions and arrangements for approving and registering certain establishments and intermediaries operating in the animal feed sector.
They provide (at regulation 2 and the Schedule) for new fees payable for applications for the approval of, and subsequent official checks carried out at, premises manufacturing zootechnical additives, premixtures and/or feedingstuffs incorporating zootechnical additives or premixtures and premises exercising intermediary activities.
The previous fees are shown in the Schedule for comparison purposes.
