"The REGULATION (EU) 2017/625 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL on official controls and other official activities performed to ensure the application of food and feed law, rules on animal health and welfare, plant health and plant protection products" adopted recently is analysed from the point of view what kind of changes it brings to control activities. As it includes the rules for official controls in different areas, it brings rather general character without high degree of detailed elaboration, what is left for Commission delegated/implementation acts. This makes it more superficial and also complicated for the use. A lot of particular conditions are described in relation to the delegation by the competent authorities of certain official control tasks to other bodies. The positive element is the introduction of the possibility to use Trichinella labs under the control of the Competent Authority (CA) without the need of the accreditation. Some newly introduced definitions may create confusions when used in practise; but the term "other official activities" is important as gives more responsibility to the CA. The real evaluation of the value of the new regulation will be possible only when the whole set of all pending legislative acts will be adopted. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Occasionally in lexicological and terminological researches on the semantics and usage of some particular word we notice interesting cases which show essential semantically functional changes in vocabulary having happened in a relatively short period of time. Cases like that encourage chronological investigation covering a sufficiently wide context into the ways the particular word has been used and explained, into what conceptual content it contains, what thematic fields it fits, and how it is reflected in lexicographical editions. The word stilists attracted the author's attention when she was studying literary theory texts written in the 20s-40s of the 20th century. At the said period this word was very frequently used in literary theory (as well as in the fields of theatre, music, and fine arts, and in other branches of the humanities and art) and contextually it is not always possible to accurately define its meaning. Besides, in modern usage the word stilists has a completely different conceptual content. The purpose of the present article is to reflect the principal features in the usage of the word stilists in the researches on the field of the humanities (mainly - literary theory) done in the 20s-40s of the 20th century, trace the changes having taken place in the second half of the 20th century and at the beginning of the 21st century, and to ascertain the ways these changes have been reflected in lexicographical sources. It is well known that in vocabulary, semantically functional changes are a continual process. Narrowing and widening of a word meaning are among these changes. Some word meanings lose their topicality, others expand, get more active or are created anew. Specific semantically functional features of particular literary theory terms have been considered in various aspects in the author's papers published in the recent years. Summing up the linguistic facts and the principal ideas, it is possible to make the following conclusions about the word stilists: 1. In the 20s-40s of the 20th century the word stilists became a household word and was referred to literature, gradually spreading to other branches of the humanities and art. In lexicography it was explained as a writer with their own specific style and an elaborate mode of expression. 2. In the Soviet period the word stilists was used much more seldom, besides in lexicography the word 'stylist' was defined as an expert of stylistic means and their practical implementer not only in literature, but in various other branches of art. In Latvian periodicals and in lexicography outside Latvia the traditions of the previous period were continued - to refer this word to literature. 3. In the most recent stage of terminology development (since the 90s of the 20th century) the word stilists has been very often used in quite a different linguistic environment and with a different semantic functionality. It has been referred to a specialist (profession) - a stylist of visual image. The new meaning of the word has been recorded in lexicography since the 2005 editions of dictionaries of foreign words. 4. The semantically functional changes having happened in the word have neared it to common vocabulary. From the terminological vocabulary of literary theory the semantics of the word has expanded to special lexis of philology and art, but in the recent times one of the shades of its meanings has developed into a self-contained semantic unit, which does not contradict the meaning of the term known earlier - a specialist/artist who deliberately uses particular means of style in their work. It is possible that the word stilists is becoming a superordinate term with an unlimitedly wide system of terms forming round it. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
