  "title": "The Hops Certification Regulations 1979",
  "long_title": "These Regulations make provision for the implementation in the United Kingdom of the Community hop certification system set up under the Community provisions referred to in regulation 1(2). Regulation 2 provides for certification to be carried out by certifying officers authorised for that purpose by the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food or the Secretary of State. Regulation 3 creates offences of selling uncertified or improperly packaged hops or hop products of Community origin; selling imported third country hop cones without an attestation of equivalence or control attestation; selling imported third country hop products without an attestation of equivalence; and, except in the case of hops harvested on land owned by a brewer and used by him, using for the manufacture of hop products third country hops imported without an attestation of equivalence. Regulation 4 imposes restrictions on the movement of third country hop cones imported without an attestation of equivalence.",
