Part 2 amends Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council on maximum residue levels of pesticides in or on food and feed of plant and animal origin and other supporting retained direct EU legislation. Part 3 makes consequential amendments, contains transitional provisions, and revokes retained direct EU legislation.\nAn impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private or voluntary sector is foreseen.",
