EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)


These Regulations amend the Eggs (Marketing Standards) Regulations 1995 (S.I. 1995/1544) ("the 1995 Regulations").

The 1995 Regulations provide for the enforcement and execution of certain provisions of Council Regulation (EEC) No. 1907/90 (OJ No. L173, 6.7.90, p.5) and Commission Regulation (EEC) No. 1274/91 (OJ No. L121, 16.5.91, p.11) relating to marketing standards for eggs and Regulation (EEC) No. 2782/75 of the Council (OJ No. L282, 1.11.75, p.100) and Commission Regulation (EEC) No. 1868/77 (OJ No. L209, 17.8.77, p.1) relating to the production and marketing of eggs for hatching and of farmyard poultry chicks. Since the 1995 Regulations were last amended Commission Regulation (EEC) No. 1274/91 has been repealed and replaced by Commission Regulation (EC) No. 2295/2003 (OJ No. L340, 24.12.2003, p.16). This has itself since been amended. Council Regulation (EEC) No. 1907/90, Council Regulation (EEC) No. 2782/75 and Commission Regulation (EEC) No. 1868/77 have also been amended. These Regulations amend the 1995 Regulations, by —

    (a) omitting regulations 7 and 7A (relating to the United Kingdom official mark); and

    (b) replacing the Schedule with an updated Schedule of Community provisions.

A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument because of time constraints.
