# The Charges for Residues Surveillance (Amendment) Regulations 2011, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of these Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Charges for Residues Surveillance Regulations 2006 (S.I. 2006/2285).
The Charges for Residues Surveillance Regulations 2006 give effect (except in relation to honey) to Article 27, as read with Annex IV, section A, of Regulation (EC) No. 882/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council on official controls performed to ensure the verification of compliance with feed and food law, animal health and animal welfare rules (OJ No. L165, 30.4.2004, p.1, as corrected by the corrigendum in OJ No L 191, 28.5.2004, p.1).
These Regulations amend regulation 4(2) to require information and evidence to be supplied to the Secretary of State for the purposes of calculating charges “within 30 days” as opposed to “within a reasonable time”.
