There are a number of ammendment regulations as well. There is quite a bit of information on the Food Standards Agency website at:
http://www.food.gov....contactarticles
This gives details of all the ammendments e.g Plastic Materials and Articles in Contact with Food (Amendment) (England) (No. 2) Regulations 2002 and cross references the various EU directives and statutory instruments.

Hi Ken and welcome to the forum.
Thanks for that. On the Food Standards Agency page I found a link to a really useful website Webpack, which is the European Commission Food Contact Materials Resource Centre. I wasn't aware of this website previously and it provides a lot of useful information including a regularly updated document containing the full reference list of the European and National legislation regarding materials and articles in contact with food.

I will create a 'sticky' thread e.g. one that stays at the top of the topic area, containing all the current applicable legislation.
By the way the Webpack links are working again:
