9.—(1) Sub-paragraph (2) applies where immediately before exit day a Regulation listed in Schedule 2 includes provision which continues to apply Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 as it had effect before that Regulation applied in respect of the pesticide residue of an active substance in or on one or more products lawfully produced before a specified date (a “transitional measure”).

(2) In respect of the pesticide residue and the product or products to which the transitional measure applies, paragraphs 3 to 6 of this Part apply as if a reference in those paragraphs to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 as it had effect immediately before exit day were a reference to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 as it had effect before the specified date.

(3) For the purposes of this paragraph, a date is “specified” if it is specified in the transitional measure.
