Laid before Parliamentat 3.45 p.m. on 27th January 2020

Coming into force in accordance with regulation 1

The Secretary of State makes the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 6(4), 16(1)(a) and (e) and (2)(b), 17(1) and (2), 26(1) and (3) and 48(1) of the Food Safety Act 1990 and now vested in him and section 2(2) of, and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to, the European Communities Act 1972 .

The Secretary of State is a Minister designated for the purposes of section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 in relation to measures relating to food (including drink) including the primary production of food , and food and drink intended for sale for human consumption including the presentation, packaging, labelling, marketing and advertising of such food and drink .

These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 and it appears to the Secretary of State that it is expedient for certain references to provisions of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/127 of 25 September 2015 supplementing Regulation (EU) No. 609/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the specific compositional and information requirements for infant formula and follow-on formula and as regards requirements on information relating to infant and young child feeding to be construed as references to those provisions as amended from time to time.

It further appears to the Secretary of State that it is expedient for certain provisions of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/128 of 25 September 2015 supplementing Regulation (EU) No. 609/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the specific compositional and information requirements for food for special medical purposes to be construed as a reference to those provisions as amended from time to time.

The Secretary of State has had regard to relevant advice given by the Food Standards Agency in accordance with section 48(4A) of the Food Safety Act 1990 .

There has been open and transparent public consultation as required by Article 9 of Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council laying down the general principles and requirements of food law, establishing the European Food Safety Authority and laying down procedures in matters of food safety , during the preparation and evaluation of these Regulations.

The Secretary of State makes the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 6(4), 16(1)(a) and (e) and (2)(b), 17(1) and (2), 26(1) and (3) and 48(1) of the Food Safety Act 1990
<noteRef href="#c23968561" marker="M1" class="commentary M"/>
and now vested in him
<noteRef href="#c23968571" marker="M2" class="commentary M"/>
and section 2(2) of, and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to, the European Communities Act 1972
<noteRef href="#c23968581" marker="M3" class="commentary M"/>
.
</p>
<p>
The Secretary of State is a Minister designated for the purposes of section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 in relation to measures relating to food (including drink) including the primary production of food
<noteRef href="#c23968591" marker="M4" class="commentary M"/>
, and food and drink intended for sale for human consumption including the presentation, packaging, labelling, marketing and advertising of such food and drink
<noteRef href="#c23968601" marker="M5" class="commentary M"/>
.
</p>
<p>
These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 and it appears to the Secretary of State that it is expedient for certain references to provisions of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/127 of 25 September 2015 supplementing Regulation (EU) No. 609/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the specific compositional and information requirements for infant formula and follow-on formula and as regards requirements on information relating to infant and young child feeding
<noteRef href="#c23968611" marker="M6" class="commentary M"/>
to be construed as references to those provisions as amended from time to time.
</p>
<p>
It further appears to the Secretary of State that it is expedient for certain provisions of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/128 of 25 September 2015 supplementing Regulation (EU) No. 609/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the specific compositional and information requirements for food for special medical purposes
<noteRef href="#c23968621" marker="M7" class="commentary M"/>
to be construed as a reference to those provisions as amended from time to time.
</p>
<p>
The Secretary of State has had regard to relevant advice given by the Food Standards Agency in accordance with section 48(4A) of the Food Safety Act 1990
<noteRef href="#c23968631" marker="M8" class="commentary M"/>
.
</p>
<p>
There has been open and transparent public consultation as required by Article 9 of Regulation
<ref href="http://www.legislation.gov.uk/european/regulation/2002/0178">(EC) No 178/2002</ref>
of the European Parliament and of the Council laying down the general principles and requirements of food law, establishing the European Food Safety Authority and laying down procedures in matters of food safety
<noteRef href="#c23968641" marker="M9" class="commentary M"/>
, during the preparation and evaluation of these Regulations.
