EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES (EXPORT AND IMPORT OF CERTAIN DANGEROUS CHEMICALS) (PESTICIDES) (ENFORCEMENT) (AMENDMENT) REGULATIONS 1998 REG 2 2 Interpretation 2. (1) In these Regulations "the Principal Regulations" means the European Communities (Export and Import of Certain Dangerous Chemicals) (Pesticides) (Enforcement) Regulations, 1995 (S.I. No. 135 of 1995). (2) The phrase "designated chemist" and the interpretation of the phrase that follows it, included in the paragraph (1) of Regulation (2) of the Principal Regulations, is hereby replaced by the following: " "designated analyst" means any appropriately qualified officer of the Minister who is authorized in writing by the Minister for the purposes of these Regulations."

(4) A word or expression that is used in any Council Directive or Regulation or in any Commission Directive or Regulation of the European Communities mentioned in these Regulations has, until the contrary intention appears, the meaning in these Regulations that it has in the Directive or Regulation concerned. EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES (EXPORT AND IMPORT OF CERTAIN DANGEROUS CHEMICALS) (PESTICIDES) (ENFORCEMENT) (AMENDMENT) REGULATIONS 1998 REG 3 3 Amendments 3. (1) Annex II as set out in First Schedule of the Principal Regulations is hereby revoked and replaced by Annex II as set out in the Schedule to these regulations. (2) Annex III as set out in First Schedule of the Principal Regulations is hereby revoked and replaced by Annex III as set out in the Schedule to these regulations SCHEDULE Annex II (Annex to Council Regulation (EC) No 1237/97 27 June 1997 amending Annex II to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2455/92 concerning the export and import of certain dangerous chemicals) The information contained in this Annex is based on the PIC Circular VI - July 1996 and on the Update of PIC Circular VI January 1997 1. List of chemicals subject to the international PIC procedure The following chemicals have been introduced in the PIC procedure following control actions reported by participating countries. For aldrin, dieldrin, DDT, dinoseb & dinoseb salts, fluoroacetamide, HCH, chlordane, chlordimeform, EDB, heptachlor, mercury compounds, reported control actions refer to pesticide use (as defined by the FAO/UNEP). For crocidolite, PBBs, PCBs, PCTs and tris(2,3 dibromopropyl) phosphate, reported control actions refer to industrial use. Decision Guidance Documents (DGDs) have been prepared by UNEP/FAO (IRPTC) to help countries to make import decisions concerning those chemicals. Nevertheless, the DGDs are not the only information taken into account by countries when they take their import decision. Therefore, the import decision does not necessarily refer to the uses mentioned in the DGDs.
