SECOND COMMISSION DIRECTIVE

of 6 November 1985

amending the Annex to Council Directive 82/471/EEC concerning certain products used in animal nutrition

(85/509/EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 82/471/EEC of 30 June 1982 concerning certain products used in animal nutrition (1), as last amended by Commission Directive 84/443/EEC (2), and in particular Article 6 thereof,

Whereas Directive 82/471/EEC provides for regular amendment of the content of the Annexes thereto as a result of developments in scientific or technical knowledge;

Whereas it is unnecessary to require on the label or packaging of compound feedingstuffs a declaration stating 'by-products from the production of L-glutamic acid' or 'by-products from the production of L-lysine' as the other labelling requirements in respect of those products are sufficient to identify them;

Whereas studies on certain amino acids have shown that these products fulfil the requirements of Directive 82/471/EEC and that their use in animal nutrition may therefore be permitted under certain conditions;

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 Annex to Directive 82/471/EEC is amended as set out in the Annex hereto.

Article 2

The Member States shall bring into force the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with Article 1 not later than 30 June 1986. They shall immediately inform the Commission thereof.

Article 3

This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

Done at Brussels, 6 November 1985.
