EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations correct an error in the Food Enzymes (Scotland) Regulations 2009. They amend the Caseins and Caseinates (Scotland) Regulations 1986 and delete from the 2009 Regulations the provision which purported to amend the Caseins and Caseinates Regulations 1985 (S.I. 1985/2026). Those 1985 Regulations do not in fact have any application in Scotland.
No Regulatory Impact Assessment has been prepared for this instrument as it has no impact on the costs of business.
1990 c.16: section 1(1) and (2) (definition of "food") was substituted by S.I. 2004/2990; section 16 was amended by paragraph 8 of Schedule 5 to the Food Standards Act 1999 (c.28) ("the 1999 Act"); and section 48 was amended by paragraph 21 of Schedule 5 to the 1999 Act and S.I. 2004/2990; amendments made by Schedule 5 to the 1999 Act shall be taken as pre-commencement enactments for the purposes of the Scotland Act 1998 (c.46) ("the 1998 Act") by virtue of section 40(2) of the 1999 Act. The functions of the Secretary of State were transferred to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of section 53 of the 1998 Act. In so far as not so transferred and in so far as relating to food (including drink) including the primary production of food, those functions were transferred to the Scottish Ministers by the Scotland Act 1998 (Transfer of Functions to the Scottish Ministers etc.) Order 2005 (S.I. 2005/849).
