1. These Regulations provide the charging regime in relation to—
(a)Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market and repealing Council Directives 79/117/EEC and 91/414/EEC (OJ No L309, 24.11.2009, p.1) (“Regulation 1107/2009”);
(b)Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 February 2005 on maximum residue levels of pesticides in or on food and feed of plant and animal origin and amending Council Directive 91/414/EEC (OJ No L70, 16.3.2005, p.1) (“the MRL Regulation”); and
(c)Directive 2009/128/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 establishing a framework for Community action to achieve the sustainable use of pesticides (OJ No L 4, 6. 1. 96, p.16) (“the Directive”).
2. Regulation 1107/2009 replaces the existing scheme for approval under Council Directive 91/414/EEC concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (OJ No L230, 19.8.1991, p.1), and lays down rules for the approval of active substances and the authorisation of plant protection products.
3. These Regulations set fees, chargeable by the Secretary of State, the Scottish Ministers and the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development in Northern Ireland (“the United Kingdom competent authorities”) for—
(a)work carried out within the scope of Regulation 1107/2009 which relates to evaluating applications for the authorisation of plant protection products, the approval of active substances, safeners, synergists and basic substances and official recognition of a test facility or organisation, and
(b)applications for import tolerances under Article 7 of the MRL Regulation.
4. These Regulations also provide for an annual charge to be paid by authorisation holders for costs incurred by or on behalf of the United Kingdom competent authorities associated with any work carried out within the scope of Regulation 1107/2009 and work arising from the obligations under the MRL Regulation (other than for work charged under section 18(2)(b) or (c) of the Food and Environment Protection Act 1985) and, after 26th November 2011, work pursuant to obligations within the scope of the Directive. These Regulations also set out the consequences of failure to pay fees or charges.

Asesiadau Effaith
Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:
- Why the government is proposing to intervene;
- The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
- How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
- The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
