Official Controls (Import of High Risk Food and Feed of Non-Animal Origin) Amendment (Scotland) Regulations 2022 (SSI 2022/341)
Our next item is consideration of two negative Scottish statutory instruments.
The Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee considered the Official Controls (Import of High Risk Food and Feed of Non-Animal Origin) Amendment (Scotland) Regulations 2022 at its meeting on 6 December 2022, and drew the instrument to the attention of the Parliament on the general reporting ground, for a failure to follow proper drafting practice, in that one of the statutory consultation requirements was not referred to in the preamble. The regulations will amend Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793, which imposed a temporary increase of official controls and emergency measures governing entry to the European Union of certain goods from certain third countries.
No motion to annul has been lodged. As members have no comments, I propose that the committee make no recommendation in relation to the negative instrument. Do members agree?
Members indicated agreement.

The regulations will amend the Processed Cereal-based Foods and Baby Foods for Infants and Young Children (Scotland) Regulations 2004 to add additional forms of vitamins and minerals that can be used in manufacture of processed cereal-based foods and baby foods.
No motion to annul has been lodged. As members have no comments, I propose that the committee make no recommendation in relation to the negative instrument. Do members agree with that proposal?
