ROSS FINNIE A member of the Scottish Executive Pentland House, Edinburgh 8th January 2002 EXPLANATORY NOTE (This note is not part of the Regulations) These Regulations principally make amendments to the BSE Monitoring (Scotland) Regulations 2001 (S.S.I. 2001/231). The amendments give effect to the obligations in article 1.1 of Commission Regulation (EC) No. 1248/2001 (O.J. No. L 173, 27.6.2001, p.12) amending Annex III to Regulation (EC) No. 999/2001 (O.J. No. L 147 31.5.2001, p.1) as regards epidemio-surveillance and testing of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies. These require member States to ensure that certain categories of bovine animals over 24 months of age are examined in accordance with the prescribed minimum requirements for monitoring BSE. The definition of "notifiable bovine animal" has been amended to reflect the change in age of animals to which the obligation applies, with consequential amendments to substitute that term in the Cattle Identification Regulations 1998 and the Cattle (Identification of Older Animals) Regulations 2001. A Regulatory Impact Assessment for these Regulations has been prepared and placed in the Scottish Parliament Information Centre. Copies may be obtained from SEERAD, Robb's Loan, Edinburgh EH14 1TY. Notes: [1] 1972 c.68. Section 2(2) was amended by the Scotland Act 1998 (c.46), Schedule 8, paragraph 15(3). The function conferred upon the Minister of the Crown under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972, insofar as within devolved competence, was transferred to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of section 53 of the Scotland Act 1998.back http://www.scotland-legislation.hmso.gov.uk/legislation/scotland/ssi2002/20020001.htm#note7 http://www.scotland-legislation.hmso.gov.uk/legislation/scotland/ssi2002/20020001.htm#n1 The BSE Monitoring (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2002 file:///D/HTML/uk33650.htm[16.01.2025 11:37:25] Other Scottish Statutory Instruments | UK Statutory Instruments | Home | Her Majesty's Stationery Office We welcome your comments on this site © Crown copyright 2002 Prepared 23 January 2002 [2] S.S.I. 2001/231.back [3] O.J.
