Up to date with all changes known to legislation.gov.uk, revised to 1 October 2023.

Food, Wales

Made 27 February 2018

Laid before the National Assembly for Wales 5 March 2018

Coming into force 26 March 2018

The Welsh Ministers make the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 6(4), 16(1)(a) and (e), 17(1) and (2), 26(1) and (3) and 48(1) of the Food Safety Act 1990f1 and paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to the European Communities Act 1972f2.

These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 and it appears to the Welsh Ministers that it is expedient for references to the European instruments listed in Schedule 4 to be construed as references to those instruments as amended from time to time.

So far as these Regulations are made in exercise of powers under the Food Safety Act 1990, the Welsh Ministers have had regard to relevant advice given by the Food Standards Agency in accordance with section 48(4A)f3 of that Act.C1

There has been open and transparent public consultation during the preparation and evaluation of these Regulations as required by Article 9 of Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council laying down the general principles and requirements of food law, establishing the European Food Safety Authority and laying down procedures in matters of food safetyf4.
