In response to the UK's withdrawal from the European Union, there was a need to develop a risk targeted phytosanitary import inspection regime for Great Britain (GB). This would allow reduced levels of identity and physical checks on lower risk regulated material of plant health relevance. Most consignments of regulated plants, plant products or other objects for import should, in principle, be subject to documentary, identity and physical checks before being permitted entry. However, during the time that the United Kingdom was a member of the European Union, its Plant Health Services applied a regime of reduced frequency plant health checks. This was to make efficient use of inspection resources. Consignments of some plant products or other objects, with a good history of compliance with phytosanitary requirements, were allowed a reduced frequency of plant health checks, provided they met certain eligibility criteria
Following the end of the Transition Period, GB Plant Health Services have developed their own risk targeted inspection system to allow for lower levels of checks of regulated plant health goods. Under the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 and the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Act 2020, the United Kingdom has retained the EU Official Controls Regulation which requires such a system to be developed. The GB risk targeted inspection system, which will be targeted at pests that present a risk of becoming established in Great Britain, as opposed to all pests regulated under the previous EU regime, will allow for continued efficiency at the GB border, as fewer checks will be made on the lowest risk material. Justification for developing a system of lower-level checks is supported by the fact that there are no records of regulated pests becoming established in Great Britain as a result of infestation on regulated imports of low risk plant produce.
The attached document (Reduced phytosanitary checks outline method) sets out the method by which the level of checks will be determined, which will be laid down in legislation. As a draft of the legislation is not yet available, we are using the method document to notify WTO of our intention.
