(1) A relevant requirement is not to be taken to directly discriminate against incoming goods for the purposes of section 7 to the extent that it can reasonably be justified as a response to a public health emergency.
(2) In this paragraph—
“public health emergency” means an event or a situation that is reasonably considered to pose an extraordinary threat to human health in the destination part;
“relevant requirement”, “incoming goods” and “destination part” have the meanings they have in relation to the non-discrimination principle for goods (see sections 5 and 6).
