Whereas: 
(1)  Follo wing the findings of high levels of melamine in infant milk, other milk products, soya and soya products 
and of ammonium bicarbonate intended for food and feed in China and at import into the EU, Commission 
Regulation (EC) No 1135/2009 (2) imposes special conditions governing the import of these products originating 
in or consigned from China. On the basis of that Regulation, the impor t of products containing milk, milk 
products, soya and soya products intended for the particular nutr itional use of infants and young children 
originating in or consigned from China is prohibit ed. Further more, identity and physical checks, including 
samp ling and analysis to control the presence of melamine, are carried out on appro ximat ely 20 % of 
consignments originating in or consigned from China of ammonium bicarbonat e intended for food and feed and 
of feed and food containing milk, milk products, soya and soya products.
