Feeding Stuffs (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2004 (S.S.I. No. 208 of 2004).

These Regulations provide for the enforcement of the specified Community Regulations and implement Commission Directive 2003/57/EC amending Directive 2002/32/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on undesirable substances in animal feed. They modify the controls in the 2000 Regulations regulating the presence of undesirable substances in animal feed by specifying new maximum levels for Dioxin in feed (reg. 4 and Schedule 2). These Regulations also implement Commission Directive 2003/104/EC authorising isopropyl ester of the hydroxylated analogue of methionine by amending Schedule 8 to the 2000 Regulations so as to revise the conditions for the sale or possession for sale of analogues of methionine for use as a feeding stuff or as a protein source in a feeding stuff (reg. 5 and Schedule 3).
