Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations further amend the TSE (Wales) Regulations 2002, S.I. 2002/1416 (“the 2002 Regulations”), which give effect in Wales to the enforcement and administration of Regulation EC No. 999/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2001 laying down rules for the prevention, control and eradication of certain transmissible spongiform encephalopathies. Other amending Regulations are S.I. 2004/2735 and S.I. 2005/1392.
These Regulations also give effect in part to Article 16a of Council Directive 95/53/EC of 25 October 1995 fixing the principles governing the organisation of official inspections in the field of animal nutrition (OJ No. L 265, 8.11.1995, p.17). Article 16a was inserted by Directive 2001/46 of the European Parliament and of the Council (OJ No. L 234, 1.9.2001, p. 55). The relevant provision is contained in new regulation 25B of the 2002 Regulations, inserted by regulation 7 of these Regulations.

New regulation 25A of the 2002 Regulations contains further provisions about feedingstuffs containing fishmeal and new regulation 25B relates to the submission of samples of feedingstuffs to laboratories. (Regulation 7.)
Regulation 33 of the 2002 Regulations is amended to make new provision about the removal of specified risk material from the carcase of a bovine animal slaughtered for human consumption. (Regulation 9.) (“Specified risk material” is defined in regulation 3(1) of the 2002 Regulations.)
Regulation 37 of the 2002 Regulations is replaced by a new regulation relating to the removal of spinal cord from sheep and goats. (Regulation 11.)
