Revocation 4. The Plant Protection Products (Amendment) Regulations 2002[24] are revoked. Signed on behalf of the National Assembly for Wales D. Elis-Thomas Presiding Officer, National Assembly for Wales 30th May 2002 Whitty Parliamentary Under Secretary of State, Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs 30th May 2002 EXPLANATORY NOTE (This note is not part of the Regulations) These Regulations, which extend to England and Wales, further amend the Plant Protection Products Regulations 1995 (S.I. 1995/887) which implement in Great Britain Council Directive 91/414/EEC concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (OJ No. L230, 19.8.91 p.1). Regulation 2 amends the definition of "the Directive" in S.I. 1995/887 so as to implement Commission Directive 2001/99/EC (which adds the active substances glyphosate and http://www.hmso.gov.uk/si/si2002/20021460.htm#note24 The Plant Protection Products (Amendment) (No. 2) Regulations 2002 file:///D/HTML/uk32862.htm[16.01.2025 11:36:13] thifensulfuron-methyl to Annex I of the Directive on 1st July 2002). It amends the definition again on 1st October 2002 so as to add Commission Directive 2001/103/EC (2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid) to the definition of "the Directive" in the Regulations. It further amends the definition on 1st January 2003 so as to add Commission Directive 2002/18/EC (isoproturon) to the definition of "the Directive" in the Regulations. Transitional arrangements are included in regulation 3 to implement relevant saving provisions included in implementing Directives (2001/87/EC for acibenzolar-s-methyl or pymetrozine, and 2001/49/EC for flupyrsulfuron-methyl) for the purpose of disapplying regulation 13(5)(a)(i) of the 1995 Regulations. These arrangements provide that provisional approvals granted under the 1995 Regulations are not revoked following the inclusion of these active substances in Annex I to the Directive. These Regulations revoke the Plant Protection Products (Amendment) Regulations 2002, S.I. 2002/526. No Regulatory Impact Assessment has been produced for these Regulations.
