Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations which extend to England and Wales, are made under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 and further amend the provisions of the Pesticides (Maximum Residue Levels in Crops, Food and Feeding Stuffs) (England and Wales) Regulations 1999 (S.I. 1999/3483).

The Regulations implement Commission Directive 2003/113/EC (OJ No. L324, 11.12.2003, p. 24) as read with the corrigenda to it (OJ No. L104, 8.4.2004, p. 135) and Commission Directive 2004/2/EC (OJ No. L14, 21.1.2004, p. 10) as read with the corrigenda to it (OJ No. L28, 31.1.2004, p. 30).

The definition of “Residues Directives” is updated (regulation 2(2)).

A replacement maximum residue level is established for the pesticide Benalaxyl in lettuce (regulation 2(4)(a)).

On 1st August 2004 new maximum residue levels are inserted in Part 2 of Schedule 2 for residues of the pesticide Fenamiphos (regulation 2(4)(b)).

On 4th June 2005 new maximum residue levels are inserted in Part 2 of Schedule 2 for residues of the pesticides Cyazofamid, 2,4–DB, Ethoxysulfuron, Foramsulfuron, Imazamox, Linuron, Oxadiargyl, Oxasulfuron and Pendimethalin (regulation 2(4)(c)).

Schedule 1, which identifies the substances residues of which are taken into account in the measuring of residue levels for each pesticide, is amended to cover the new maximum residue levels and to effect a consequential entry repositioning (regulation 2(3)).
