These Regulations implement in Northern Ireland, Council Directive 96/90/EC amending Directive 92/118/EEC laying down animal health and public health requirements governing trade in and imports into the Community of miscellaneous products of animal origin. The Regulations apply to apiculture products, frogs legs, honey and snails. They specify the requirements for the import of those products from other Member States and from third countries (regulations 3 and 4). The Regulations provide for enforcement by applying the provisions of the Products of Animal Origin (Import and Export) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1998 and create offences and penalties (regulations 5 and 6).

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.
