Regulation 22 Import procedure for fishery products or live bivalve molluscs and other shellfish

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

In the case of the importation of fishery products or live bivalve molluscs or other shellfish, the prohibitions and procedures, including time limits, in regulation 21 shall apply except that all powers and duties of an official veterinary surgeon may be carried out by an authorised officer of the local authority.

(2)

Where an authorised officer of a local authority is satisfied that the movement of these products would not give rise to a public or animal health risk, he may authorise their removal from customs temporary storage arrangements under customs control to different customs temporary storage arrangements at the same border inspection post for the checks to be carried out.
