This instrument makes a number of amendments to the retained direct EU legislation which forms the plant protection product and maximum residue level (‘MRLs’) regulatory regimes, so that they can continue to operate effectively after the United Kingdom leaves the European Union. Some of the required amendments are as a consequence of the change in “exit day” from 29th March which impacts on various dates specified in the retained law. Further new EU legislation has also come into force during the extension period, which needs to be amended in order to correct deficiencies arising from exiting the European Union. This instrument also fixes a number of errors in earlier instruments made under section 8(1) of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (‘the Withdrawal Act’).

This instrument amends the REACH etc. (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (the “REACH SI”). It inserts a new transitional provision relating to applications for authorisations to use chemical substances of very high concern (the “new transitional provision”). It also makes some minor amendments relating to dates, cross-references and recent amendments to EU the REACH regulation.
