SPECIAL MEASURES FOR THE CONTROL OF POTATO WART DISEASE (COUNCIL DIRECTIVE 69/464/EEC) (OJ No. L323, 24.12.69, p.1)
1-(1) When an occurrence of Synchytrium endobioticum (Schilb) Perc. is recorded, the Minister shall demarcate the plot contaminated with that agent and a safety zone large enough to ensure the protection of the surrounding areas.
(2) For the purposes of this item, a plot shall be regarded as being contaminated when symptoms of Potato wart disease have been found on at least one plant from the plot.
2-(1) The Minister shall ensure that potato tubers and haulms which came from a contaminated plot are treated in such a way that the agent is destroyed.
(2) If it is not possible to determine the place from which the contaminated tubers and haulms came the Minister shall ensure that the whole of the batch containing the affected tubers and haulms shall be treated to destroy the agent.
3 Once a contaminated plot has been demarcated:
(a) no person shall grow potatoes in the plot; and
(b) no person shall grow or store in the plot any plants or planting material intended for transplanting,
except in accordance with an exemption under item 7.
4-(1) No person shall grow potatoes in a safety zone unless they are of a variety which is resistant to the races of Synchytrium endobioticum found on the contaminated plot or the person does so in accordance with an exemption under item 7.
(2) A potato variety shall be considered resistant to a particular race of Synchytrium endobioticum when it reacts to contamination by the pathogenic agent of that race in such a way that there is no danger of secondary infection.
5 The Minister shall revoke the demarcation and other measures taken under this Schedule to control Potato wart disease or to prevent it from spreading only if Synchytrium endobioticum is no longer found to be present on the relevant plot.
6 No person shall hold cultures of Synchytrium endobioticum, except in accordance with an exemption under item 7.
7 The Minister may authorize exemptions from the measures referred to in items 2, 3, 4 and 6 of this Schedule for scientific purposes, tests and selection work provided that such exemptions do not prejudice the control of Potato wart disease and create no risk of the spread of the disease.
8 Nothing in this Schedule affects the operation of the other provisions of this Order.
SCHEDULE 12
(Article 22)
SPECIAL MEASURES FOR THE CONTROL OF POTATO RING ROT
1 The purpose of this Schedule is to give effect to Council Directive 93/85/EEC(a) on the control of Potato ring rot.

(2) A notice under paragraph (1)(c) or (2)(i) of article 25 of the Directive may require any such tuber or plant to be disposed of otherwise than by destruction only by means of measures described in item 1 of Annex IV to the Directive and only if there is no identifiable risk of Potato ring rot spreading.
6-(1) No person shall plant any plant or tuber determined to be probably contaminated with Potato ring rot under article 5(1)(b) of the Directive.
(2) A notice under article 25(1)(c) or (2)(i) may require any such tuber or plant to be put to an appropriate use or disposed of only in accordance with item 2 of Annex IV to the Directive and only if there is no identifiable risk of Potato ring rot spreading.

(2) A person does not commit an offence against that item if the person does something in accordance with such an exemption from the item.
10-(1) No person shall plant seed potatoes unless they –
(a) meet the requirements of Directive 2000/29/EC; and
(b) derive in a direct line from material obtained under an officially approved programme, being material which has been found free from Potato ring rot in official, or under officially supervised, testing pursuant to article 8(1) of the Directive referred to in item 1 using the method set out in Annex I to that Directive.
(2) The testing referred to in item (1)(b) shall be carried out –

Solanacearum;
(b) with regard to potato crops in the zone, only seed potatoes approved by the Minister may be planted; and
(c) potatoes intended for planting shall be handled separately from all other potatoes on premises within the zone.
(2) Where a zone has been demarcated under Article 32 and surface water in that zone has been designated by an inspector as contaminated for the purposes of article 5(1)(c)(ii) of the Directive, a person shall not use the water for the irrigation or spraying of specified plant material or other host plants of R. solanacearum without the authority of an inspector.
(3) An inspector shall give such authority only if satisfied on the basis of a survey conducted under paragraph 4.2(a)(ab) of Annex VI to the Directive that there is no identifiable risk of R. solanacearum being spread by the use of the water.
(4) Where a zone has been demarcated under Article 32, and within that zone liquid waste discharges have been found to be contaminated with R. solanacearum, a person shall not dispose of waste from industrial processing premises, or packaging premises, which handle specified plant material except under the supervision of an inspector.
