COUNCIL DIRECTIVE

of 6 February 1984

amending for the 19th time Directive 64/54/EEC on the approximation of the laws of the Member States concerning the preservatives authorized for use in foodstuffs intended for human consumption

(84/86/EEC)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 100 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),

Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (3),

Whereas Directive 64/54/EEC (4), as last amended by Directive 83/636/EEC (5), sets out a list of preservatives the use of which is authorized for the protection of foodstuffs intended for human consumption against deterioration caused by micro-organisms;

Whereas the Commission proposal currently under review aims, on the one hand, to add to the list of authorized preservatives potassium bisulphite and natamycin and, on the other hand, to authorize thiabendazol for surface treatment of citrus fruit and bananas, without any time limit;

Whereas, pending a Council decision on the whole of this proposal and without prejudice to current discussions on this subject, the authorization for thiabendazol should, as a precautionary measure, be extended on a transitional basis from 16 February to 15 April 1984 in order to avoid any interruption in the traditional trade flows concerning citrus fruit and bananas,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

Article 1

This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

Done at Brussels, 6 February 1984.

For the Council

The President
