These Regulations make certain amendments to the Food Safety and Hygiene (England) Regulations 2013 (S.I. 2013/2996) to make continuing provision for the labelling of raw milk intended for direct human consumption with prescribed information relating to the absence of heat treatment (regulation 2(2) and (4)). These Regulations also correct two typographical errors in regulation 41(2) of S.I. 2013/2996 (regulation 2(3)). These Regulations provide that the Food Standards Agency must carry out a periodic review of the operation and effect of these Regulations (regulation 3). A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.

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.
