Guidance on imports of products of non-animal origin
Wednesday 9 November 2005
Guidance notes for feed and food businesses on the imports provisions for products of non-animal origin are now available online.
From 1 January 2006, the legislation controlling feed and food of non-animal origin imported from non-European Union (non-EU) countries into the UK will be changing.
The new legislation, the Official Feed and Food Controls (England) Regulations 2005 (and parallel legislation in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland) replaces current UK legislation (principally, the Imported Food Regulations 1997) but the general approach in the new legislation is similar.
