  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations amend the Zoonoses and Animal By-Products (Fees) (Scotland) Regulations 2007 (“the 2007 Regulations”).\nRegulation 2(2) extends the list of activities for which fees can be charged by the Scottish Ministers under the 2007 Regulations.\nRegulation 2(3) provides that fees charged in respect of the additional activities inserted at regulation 2(2) shall be payable to the Scottish Ministers by the person in charge of a holding where tests are conducted for the purposes of those activities.\nThese Regulations are required to be made in order to take into account Commission Regulation (EC) No. 1237/2007 (O.J. No. L 280, 24.10.2007, p.5) which amends part D of Annex II to Regulation (EC) No. 2160/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council (O.J. No. L 325, 12.12.2003, p.1) (“the 2003 European Regulation”).\nThat amendment provides for optional testing to be requested by farmers in order to exclude false-positive initial results from tests carried out in furtherance of the national control programme provided for under Commission Regulation (EC) No. 1168/2006 (O.J. No. L211,1.8.2006, p.4).\nThe 2003 European Regulation is implemented in Scotland by the Control of Salmonella in Poultry (Scotland) Order 2008 (S.S.I. 2008/266) (“the Poultry Order”).\nA full Regulatory Impact Assessment has not been produced for this instrument. However, an Assessment was produced to coincide with the Poultry Order. That Regulatory Impact Assessment is relevant to the costs associated with this amending instrument. A copy has been placed in the Scottish Parliament Reference Centre. Copies can be obtained from the offices of the Scottish Government Environment and Rural Affairs Department at Pentland House, 47 Robb’s Loan, Edinburgh, EH14 1TY.",
