The Regulations specify maximum levels of pesticide residues which crops, food and feeding stuffs may contain in implementation of Commission Directives 2000/24/EC (O.J. No. L 107, 4.5.00 p.28), 2000/42/EC (O.J. No. L 158, 30.6.00 p.51), 2000/48/EC (O.J. No. L 197, 3.8.00 p.26), 2000/57/EC (O.J. No. L 244, 29.9.00 p.76) and 2000/58/EC (O.J. No. L 244, 29.9.00 p.78) and amend Community maximum residue levels which have been set previously (regulation 2(2) and (5)). Additionally, the 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certain maximum levels which were included in Part 1 of Schedule 2 to the Consolidated Regulations and which have been replaced by the Community maximum residue levels now included in Part 2 of that Schedule (regulation 2(4)). Further residue definitions are also introduced (regulation 2(3)). The Regulations amend Schedule 3 to the Consolidated Regulations introducing the new products "Papaya" and "Chilli peppers" to reflect the categories specified in Directives 2000/42/EC and 2000/24/EC respectively (regulation 2(6)). Notes: [1] 1972 c.68; section 2(2) was amended by the Scotland Act 1998 (c.46), Schedule 8, paragraph 15. The function conferred upon the Minister of the Crown under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972, insofar as within devolved competence, was transferred to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of section 53 of the Scotland Act 1998.back
