(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations revoke the Tetrachloroethylene in Olive Oil Regulations 1989, as amended, which applied in England and Wales and made provision for the enforcement of Article 1 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No. 1860/88 on the establishment of special marketing standards for olive oil (OJ No. L166, 1.7.88, p.16) which set a limit for tetrachloroethylene, a volatile halogenated solvent. That Commission Regulation was revoked by Commission Regulation 3009/91 (OJ L286, 16.10.91, p.19) and limits on volatile halogenated solvents were instead included in Commission Regulation (EEC) No. 2568/91 (OJ No. L248, 5.9.91, p.1) enforcement of which was provided for in the Olive Oil Marketing Standards (Amendment) Regulations 1992 (S.I. 1992/2590).
