Amendments to the Official Controls (Plant Health) (Frequency of Checks) Regulations 2022 and introducing legislative amendments to ensure existing controls for animals and animal products continue to operate effectively at the border |
| Tóm tắt |
The following amendment is being made to England, Scotland, and Wales (Great Britain) the Official Controls (Plant Health) (Frequency of Checks) Regulations 2022. Currently, risk-based documentary checks are carried out on medium risk plants, plant products, and other related objects from EU Member States, Switzerland and Liechtenstein. This approach is to be extended to include medium risk plants, plant products and other objects from all countries to help facilitate trade. The methodology for determining the risk factor of these goods is contained in The Official Controls (Plant Health) (Frequency of Checks) Regulations 2022. Frequencies of documentary checks will be published online and will align with the corresponding physical and ID check rates. More information can be found at this link - Frequency of plant health import inspections across GB - UK Plant Health Information Portal. Additionally, we are seeking to introduce legislation relating to animals and animal products to remove country/commodity risk categories and check rate frequencies from the statute book and move them to the GOV.UK website to allow changes to be made administratively, in response to changing risk status. Changes to risk categories and check rates will be based on a range of animal and public health data sources. This approach allows an appropriately responsive implementation of risk mitigations to address changing sanitary risks and hazards. WTO Members will be notified of any changes to risk categories and check rates in line with our transparency obligations.
