The Weights and Measures etc. (Miscellaneous) (Amendment) Regulations 2019
The Weights and Measures Act 1985 (“the Act”) contains provisions that refer to “the FIC Regulation”. Section 94(1) of the Act contains a definition of “the FIC Regulation”: it means Regulation (EU) No. 1169/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the provision of food information to consumers. The definition was inserted by regulation 11 of the Weights and Measures (Food) (Amendment) Regulations 2014 (S.I. 2014/2975). These Regulations restate the definition, and this has the effect of updating it so that it covers the same Regulation as most recently amended by Regulation (EU) 2015/2283 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 November 2015 on novel foods (OJ No. L327, 11.12.2015, p. 1).
