The Food Safety (General Food Hygiene) (Butchers' Shops) (Amendment) (Wales) Regulations 2000
These Regulations amend the Food Safety (General Food Hygiene) Regulations 1995 (“the general Regulations”) in relation to Wales (see regulation 1(2)) by introducing a requirement for butchers' shops to be licensed by food authorities. Butcher’s shops for these purposes are fixed or moveable premises in which unwrapped raw meat is handled and from which both raw meat and ready to eat food are sold to consumers (see the definition of “butcher’s shop” in paragraph 1 of Schedule 1A).
