Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations.) — published with the instrument by the department that made it. © Crown copyright, reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0.

These Regulations revoke and remake with amendments the Specified Bovine Material (Treatment and Disposal) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1996 and the Specified Bovine Material (Treatment and Disposal) (Amendment) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1996. Those Regulations implemented various directives first specified in the Specified Bovine Offal (Treatment and Disposal) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1995 and the Mechanically Recovered Meat Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1995. The only change of substance lies in the requirements of these Regulations that solid matter trapped in drainage systems where bovine animals are slaughtered or their carcases processed shall be deemed to be specified bovine material, and shall be treated accordingly.

What Parliament said about it

Hansard was searched for this instrument by name and returned nothing. That is the ordinary outcome: an instrument laid under the negative procedure is usually never debated, and becomes law without a word said about it in either House.

How Parliament handled it

Parliament's Statutory Instruments service records procedure from May 2017 onwards, and this instrument predates it. That is a limit of the source, not a statement that nothing happened.
