EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend Part V of Schedule 2 to the Products of Animal Origin (Third Country Imports) (England) Regulations 2002 (S.I. 2002/1227, as already amended) in order to give effect in England to Commission Decision 2002/794/EC concerning certain protective measures with regard to poultrymeat, poultrymeat products and poultrymeat preparations intended for human consumption and imported from Brazil (OJ No. L276, 12.10.2002, p. 66).
2.
These Regulations also correct an earlier defect in S.I. 2002/1227 by including in Part V of Schedule 2 to that instrument a reference to Commission Decision 2002/251/EC concerning certain protective measures with regard to poultrymeat and certain fishery and aquaculture products intended for human consumption and imported from Thailand (OJ No. L84, 28.3.2002, p. 77). That Decision is already listed in section H of Part IX of Schedule 2 (protective measures - fishery products).
