The Detergents Regulations 2005
These Regulations provide for the enforcement in the United Kingdom of Regulation (EC) No 648/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council on detergents (OJ No L 104, 8.4.2004, p.1), which is referred to in these Regulations and in this Note as “Regulation 648/2004” – see regulation 2(1). Regulation 648/2004 is directly applicable in the United Kingdom (and elsewhere in the European Union) but these Regulations provide for measures to be taken to enforce Regulation 648/2004 and for penalties for breach of Regulation 648/2004.
