(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Blood Safety and Quality Regulations 2005 (S.I.2005/50) ("the principal Regulations"), which implement Directive 2002/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council setting out the standards of quality and safety for the collection, testing, processing, storage and distribution of human blood and blood components(5) and related Commission Directives(6).
Regulation 2 amends regulation 22 of the principal Regulations to increase the fees payable by blood establishments and hospital blood banks or facilities in relation to authorisation, operation, and haemovigilance. The overall average fee increase is around 4%.
