These Regulations implement in England Commission Decision 2002/903/EC (OJ L312, 15.11.02, p. 28) amending Commission Decision 96/301/EC (“the principal Decision”) (OJ No. L115, 9.5.1996, p. 47) authorising member States temporarily to take emergency measures against the dissemination of Pseudomonas solanacearum (Smith) Smith as regards Egypt. They do so by adding Commission Decision 2002/903/EC to the list of instruments amending the principal Decision contained in the Schedule to the Potatoes Originating in Egypt Regulations 1998 (SI 1998/201) (regulation 2). Decision 2002/903/EC renews the framework within which potatoes may be imported from Egypt into the territory of the European Community for the 2002/2003 season.
Pseudomonas solanacearum (Smith) Smith is now referred to as Ralstonia solanacearum Smith (Yabuuchi) et al. (see Council Directive 98/57/EC (OJ No. L235, 21.9.1998)).
No Regulatory Impact Assessment has been carried out in respect of the extension of these controls to the 2002/2003 season.
