These Regulations make a further amendment to the Specified Risk Material Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1997. These Regulations give effect to Article 1 of Commission Decision 2001/2/EC adopted on 27th December 2000. That Decision amends Commission Decision 2000/418/EC regulating the use of material presenting risks as regards transmissible spongiform encephalopathies by inserting a revised definition of specified risk material into its Annex I. The Regulations amend the 1997 Regulations to bring the definition of "specified bovine material" in regulation 4(1) into line with the revised definition of specified risk material in Annex I to Commission Decision 2000/418/EC.
