The Welsh Ministers make the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred on them by—

Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations make amendments in relation to Wales to a number of pieces of secondary legislation relating to food and feed.
Regulation 11 amends the Food Hygiene (Wales) Regulations 2006 (S.I. 2006/32 (W. 5)) to amend the definition of Regulation (EC) 852/2004 on the hygiene of foodstuffs (OJ No L 139, 30.4.2004, p. 1) so as to require that Regulation to be read with new Commission Regulation (EU) No 2017/2158 establishing mitigation measures and benchmark levels for the reduction of the presence of acrylamide in food (OJ No L 304, 21.11.2017, p. 24).
Regulation 25 amends the Fruit Juices and Fruit Nectars (Wales) Regulations 2013 (S.I. 2013/2750 (W. 267)) to implement Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1040/2014 amending Council Directive 2001/112/EC relating to fruit juices and certain similar products intended for human consumption to adapt its Annex I to technical progress (OJ No L 288, 2.10.2014, p. 1). This allows plant proteins from wheat, peas and potatoes to be used for the clarification of products to which the Fruit Juices and Fruit Nectars (Wales) Regulations 2013 apply.
These Regulations make other miscellaneous minor amendments to legislation relating to food and feed, in particular amending out of date references to domestic legislation and to EU instruments.
The Welsh Ministers' Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, it was not considered necessary to carry out a regulatory impact assessment as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations.
