  "text": "1. Registered name PGI Scotch Lamb\n2. Amendments(s) requested Specification heading:\nName\nDescription\nGeographical area\nProof of origin\nMethod of production\nLink\nLabelling\nNational requirement\nAmendment(s):\nDescription\nSo as better to reflect current practice, take account of consumer concerns about more transparent labelling and improve the quality of Scotch Lamb, the current description:\n‘The product is derived from lambs finished, for a minimum period of two months, slaughtered and dressed in the designated area.’\nis hereby amended as follows:\n‘The product is derived from lambs born, reared throughout their lives, slaughtered and dressed in the designated geographical area. The animals will have been produced and slaughtered in accordance with quality assurance schemes accredited to European Standard EN 45011 (ISO Guide 65) and having the same standards, assessments and assessment frequencies as those set by the applicant.’\nMethod of production\nAs a result of the amendment to the description described above it is necessary to amend the details of the method of production. In addition, when the original application was submitted, Scotch Lamb was almost never sold frozen. While this practice is still not widespread, the applicant would like to remove the words ‘Only fresh or chilled product may be sold’ to allow Scotch Lamb to be sold frozen if a processor so wishes.\nAccordingly, the current description:\n‘Lambs are finished in Scotland for a period of not less than two months. They are slaughtered and dressed in accordance with the specifications. The product is sold fresh or chilled.’\nis hereby amended as follows:\n‘Lambs are born and reared throughout their lives in the designated geographical area. The animals will have been produced and slaughtered in accordance with quality assurance schemes accredited to European Standard EN 45011 (ISO Guide 65) and having the same standards, assessments and assessment frequencies as those set by the applicant. They are slaughtered and dressed in the designated geographical area in accordance with the specifications.’",
