Pesticides (Maximum Residue Levels in Crops, Food and Feeding Stuffs) (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2001 (S.S.I. No. 84 of 2001).

These Regulations specify maximum levels of pesticide residues which crops, food and feeding stuffs may contain in implementation of Commission Directives 2000/24/EC, 2000/42/EC, 2000/48/EC, 2000/57/EC and 2000/58/EC and amend Community maximum residue levels which have been set previously (reg. 2(2) and (5)). Additionally, these Regulations remove certain maximum levels which were included in Part 1 of Schedule 2 to the Consolidated Regulations and which have been replaced by the Community maximum residue levels now included in Part 2 of that Schedule (reg. 2(4)). Further residue definitions are also introduced (reg. 2(3)).
