Food Protection (Emergency Prohibitions) (Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning) (Orkney) (No.2) (Scotland) Order 1999 (SSI 1999/42)
Item 4 is an amnesic shellfish poisoning order that seeks an extension of the area around the Orkney coast. This is not a negative instrument and we have to give it our approval. As we have debated similar instruments, we are not expected to go through the debate again.
The committee recommends that the order be approved.
I understand that there have been some questions about the drafting of items 1, 2 and 4. The committee clerk will follow up those concerns to make sure that we have a commencement date for each paper that comes before us.
