  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\n1. These Regulations, which apply in relation to Wales only, further amend the Feeding Stuffs (Sampling and Analysis) Regulations 1999 (S.I. 1999/1663, as already amended) which apply to the whole of Great Britain.\n2. These Regulations implement Commission Directive 2003/126/EC on the analytical method for the determination of constituents of animal origin for the official control of feedingstuffs (OJ No. L339, 24.12.2003, p.78).\n3. These Regulations revise the Feeding Stuffs (Sampling and Analysis) Regulations 1999 by providing that where a microscopic examination is carried out for specified purposes, the procedure set out in Commission Directive 2003/126/EC shall be used (regulation 2(2)).\n4. A regulatory appraisal of the effect that this instrument will have on the costs of business has been prepared and placed in the Library of the National Assembly for Wales together with a Transposition Note setting out how the main elements of Commission Directive 2003/126/EC is transposed into domestic law by these Regulations. Copies may be obtained from the Animal Feed Unit of the Food Standards Agency, 11th Floor, Southgate House, Cardiff, CF10 1EN.",
