Regulations are made under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 and section 16(2) of the Food and Environment Protection Act.To the extent that the Regulations are made under the European Communities Act 1972, regulation 4 and Schedule 2 Part II specify maximum levels of pesticide residues which crops, food and feeding stuffs may contain in implementation of Council Directive 86/362/EEC and Council Directive 86/363/EEC as regards cereals and products of animal origin, as amended. In particular, these Regulations specify for the first time maximum residue levels for the pesticide Azoxystrobin in implementation of Commission Directive 1999/71/EC. Regulation 4 also creates offences, specifies penalties, provides defences and confers enforcement powers where these maximum residue levels have been exceeded in respect of products put into circulation. To the extent that these Regulations are made under the Food and Environment Protection Act 1985, they specify maximum levels of pesticide residues which may be left in crops, food and feeding stuffs which are not the subject of the Residues Directives. Regulation 3 and Schedule 2 Part I specify the maximum residue level which may be left in a particular product. Offences and penalties for contravention of regulation 3 are prescribed respectively by sections 16(12) and 21(3) of that Act. The Regulations also confer powers to seize and dispose of products where maximum residue levels have been exceeded (reg. 5) and prescribe how much of a particular product is to be taken into account in determining whether a maximum residue level has been exceeded in accordance with Council Directive 90/642/EEC (reg. 6 and Schedule 3). Provision is also made with regard to the manner for determining whether maximum residue levels have been exceeded when found in dried or processed products or composite foods, so far as these are subject of the Residues Directives (reg. 6).
