Infant Formula and Follow-on Formula (Amendment) (Wales) Regulations 2004 (S.I. No. 313 (W. 31) of 2004).

These Regulations amend the principal Regulations of 1995 in relation to Wales. They implement for Wales Commission Directive 2003/14/EC amending Directive 91/321/EEC on infant formulae and follow-on formulae. In implementation of Directive 2003/14/EC the Regulations: (a) prohibit 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). 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).
