Infant Formula and Follow-on Formula (Amendment) Regulations 2003 (S.I. No. 3208 of 2003).

These Regulations amend the 1995 Regulations, in relation to England and implement for England Commission Directive 2003/14 by: (a) prohibiting the sale, or export to third countries, of infant formulae or follow-on formulae containing pesticide residues above certain levels. Different levels are set depending on the pesticide in question (regs. 4, 5, 7 and 10 and Schedule); and (b) make some consequential amendments (regs. 3 and 6). In implementation of the final sentence of Article 6(2) of Directive 91/321/EEC as substituted by Commission Directive 1999/50/EC, provision is made as to analytical methods for determining levels of pesticide residues (reg. 7). The Regulations also: (a) give port health authorities a role in enforcement (reg. 8); and (b) make some technical changes to the provision applying various provisions of the Food Safety Act 1990 (reg. 9).
