These Regulations, which extend to Scotland only, amend the Quick-frozen Foodstuffs Regulations 1990 (S.I. 1990/2615, as amended). They provide for the execution and enforcement of Commission Regulation (EC) No. 37/2005 (“Regulation 37/2005”) on the monitoring and storage of quick-frozen foodstuffs intended for human consumption (O.J. No. L 10, 13.1.05, p.18.) These Regulations– a prohibit failure to comply with specified provisions of Regulation 37/2005 and provide penalties for a failure to comply with that prohibition (regulation 2(e) and (f) and Schedule 1)); b provide an exception to that prohibition for a transitional period up to the 1st January 2010 (regulation 2(e), (g) and Schedule 2); c revoke provisions of the Quick-frozen Foodstuffs Regulations 1990 which implemented Directive 92/1/EEC (O.J. No. L 34, 11.2.92, p.28) which was revoked by Regulation 37/2005 (regulation 2(b)(vi) and (d); d update and supplement the interpretation provisions of the instrument (regulations 2(a) and (b)). A full regulatory impact assessment of the effect that this instrument will have on the costs of business (and the voluntary sector) has been prepared and placed in the Scottish Parliament Information Centre.

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.
