Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations.)

These Regulations amend the Plant Protection Products Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1995 which implement Council Directive 91/414/EEC concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (“the Directive”), as amended by Commission Directive 93/71/EEC, Commission Directive 94/37/EEC and Commission Directive 94/79/EC, each of which amends Annexes II and III to the Directive.

The Regulations amend the definition of the Directive provided in the Plant Protection Products Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1995 in consequence of Commission Directive 95/35/EC (O.J.
