Maximum residue levels (MRLs) are expressed in milligrammes of residue per kilogramme of food. Key: * Level at or about the limit of determination. FOOTNOTES: | ||||||||
a Paddy or rough rice, husked rice and semi-milled or wholly milled rice. | ||||||||
b Levels are measured on fat, except in the case of foods with a fat content of 10% or less by weight. In these cases the residue is related to the total weight of the boned foodstuff and the MRL is one tenth of the value given in the table, but must be no less than 0.01 mg/kg. | ||||||||
c These levels are for fresh raw cow’s milk and fresh whole cream cow’s milk expressed on the whole milk. | ||||||||
d For preserved, concentrated or sweetened cow’s milk; for raw milk and whole cream milk of another animal origin; and for butter, cheese or curd whether made from cow’s milk or other milk or a combination, the following levels apply: -if the fat content is less than 2% by weight, the MRL is taken as half that set for raw milk and whole cream milk; -if the fat content is 2% or more by weight, the MRL is expressed in mg/kg of fat and is set at 25 times that set for raw milk and whole cream milk. | ||||||||
e Bird’s eggs in shell (other than eggs for hatching) and whole egg products and egg yolk products (whether fresh, dried or otherwise prepared). | ||||||||

Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations, which are made under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972, amend the Pesticides (Maximum Residue Levels in Crops, Food and Feeding Stuffs) (Scotland) Regulations 2005 (“the principal Regulations”).
These Regulations implement Commission Directives 2006/62/EC (O.J. No. L 206, 27.07.06, p.27) and 2006/92/EC (O.J. No. L 311, 10.11.06, p.31) and implement in part Commission Directive 2007/7/EC (O.J. No. L43, 15.02.07, p.19).
The Regulations come into force, in stages, on 31st March 2007, 11th May 2007 and 21st January 2008.
The Regulations substitute or insert–
(a)new residue definitions for the pesticides Captan, Desmedipham and Phenmedipham in Schedule 1 to the principal Regulations which identifies the pesticide residues that are taken into account in the measuring of residue levels for each pesticide; and
(b)new maximum residue levels for the pesticides Atrazine, Captan, Chlorfenvinphos, Desmedipham, Dichlorvos, Ethion, Folpet and Phenmedipham in Schedule 2 to the principal Regulations.
A Regulatory Impact Assessment (“RIA”) was prepared in respect of the principal Regulations which provides a basis for establishing the impact of amendments to those Regulations. Copies of the RIA can be obtained from the Scottish Executive Environment and Rural Affairs Department, EPHAS2, Area 1-B, Pentland House, 47 Robb’s Loan, Edinburgh, EH14 1TY. Copies have been placed in the Scottish Parliament Information Centre.
