COMMISSION DIRECTIVE

of 17 November 1987

amending the Annexes to Council Directive 70/524/EEC concerning additives in feedingstuffs

(87/552/EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 70/524/EEC of 23 November 1970 concerning additives in feedingstuffs (1), as last amended by Directive 87/317/EEC (2), and in particular Article 7 thereof,

Whereas Directive 70/524/EEC provides for regular amendment of the content of its Annexes to take account of advances in scientific and technical knowledge; whereas the Annexes were consolidated by Commission Directive 85/429/EEC (3);

Whereas the list of cases provided for in Annex I where bentonite/montmorillonite may, without interaction risk, be mixed with antibiotics, coccidiostats and other medicinal substances, should be supplemented;

Whereas calcium sulphate dihydrate used as an anti-caking agent, as well as various additives belonging to the group of emulsifiers, comply, in every respect to the principles ruling the admission of additives; whereas it is desirable therefore to authorize their use throughout the Community;

Whereas the investigation of various additives currently listed in Annex II and therefore authorizable at national level has not yet been completed; whereas, therefore, the period of authorization of these substances should be extended for a specific period;

Whereas the use of various additives has been successfully tested in certain Member States; whereas these new uses should be provisionally authorized, at least at national level until such time as it is permitted at Community level;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Directive are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee for Feedingstuffs,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

Article 1

The Annexes to Directive 70/524/EEC are hereby amended as set out in the Annex hereto.

Article 2

Member States shall, by 30 November 1988 at the latest, bring into force the laws, regulations or administrative provisions necessary to comply with Article 1. They shall immediately inform the Commission thereof.

Article 3

This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

Done at Brussels, 17 November 1987.
