  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations amend the Bovines and Bovine Products (Trade) Regulations 1999 (S.I. 1999/1103, as amended by S.I. 1999/1554, S.I. 2000/656 and S.I. 2000/1667—“the Principal Regulations”) insofar as they extend to England. The Principal Regulations give effect to Commission Decisions 98/692/EC (OJ No. L328, 4.12.98, p. 28) and 98/564/EC (OJ No. L273, 9.10.98, p. 37) which amended Council Decision 98/256/EC (OJ No. L113, 15.4.98, p.32).\nThe effect of the amendments in regulation 2 are to give effect to Commission Decision 2002/670/EC (OJ No. L228, 24.8.2002, p. 22) which amends Council Decision 98/256/EC. The amendments enable the despatch from England of bovine embryos and bone in veal carcasses from calves between six and nine months exported under the Date based Export Scheme (DBES) and the amendments enable companies participating in the DBES to slaughter and process DBES ineligible bovine animals as well as DBES eligible bovine animals provided that adequate separation arrangements are in place.\nIn addition regulation 2(4) inserts a new regulation 5A into the Principal Regulations to prohibit offering to despatch or consign goods which may not be despatched or consigned under these Regulations. Regulation 2(8) amends regulation 17 to provide for the payment of expenses reasonably incurred in connection with storage by the owner of a consignment seized under the regulation and in some circumstances the payment of compensation to the owner for any depreciation in value of the consignment.\nA Regulatory Impact Assessment has not been prepared for these Regulations.",
