These Regulations implement Commission Directive 94/15/EC (OJ No. L 103, 22.4.94, p.20) adapting to technical progress for the first time Council Directive 90/220/EEC on the deliberate release into the environment of genetically modified organisms by amending the Genetically Modified Organisms (Deliberate Release) Regulations 1992 (SI 1992/3280). Regulation 3 and the Schedule make separate provision for information required in relation to applications to release or market higher plants and that required in relation to applications to release or market other organisms. Regulation 4 amends the provisions relating to applications for consent to release in order to take account of Commission Decision 94/730/EC (OJ No. L292, 22.11.94, p.31).
