Those Annexes have been previously amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No. 1170/2009.

The Scottish Ministers make the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 16(1)(a), (e) and (f), 17(2), 26(1)(a) and (3) and 48(1) of the Food Safety Act 1990 and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to the European Communities Act 1972 and all other powers enabling them to do so.
These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 and it appears to the Scottish Ministers that it is expedient for references to the EU instrument mentioned in regulation 3 to be construed as references to that instrument as amended from time to time by amendments to Annexes I and II of that instrument.
