COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) 2021/382

of 3 March 2021

amending the Annexes to Regulation (EC) No 852/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the hygiene of foodstuffs as regards food allergen management, redistribution of food and food safety culture

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 852/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 on the hygiene of foodstuffs (1), and in particular Article 13(1)(c) and (d) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Regulation (EC) No 852/2004 lays down general rules for food business operators on the hygiene of foodstuffs taking into account the principle that it is necessary to ensure food safety throughout the food chain, starting with primary production. Food business operators therefore, need to comply with the general hygiene provisions laid down in Annexes I and II of that Regulation. |

Regulation (EC) No 852/2004 lays down general rules for food business operators on the hygiene of foodstuffs taking into account the principle that it is necessary to ensure food safety throughout the food chain, starting with primary production. Food business operators therefore, need to comply with the general hygiene provisions laid down in Annexes I and II of that Regulation.

| (2) | On 30 October 2014, the European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) updated its scientific advice on the evaluation of allergenic foods and food ingredients for labelling purposes (2), indicating that the presence of food allergies across Europe has been estimated at 3 % to 4 % for both adults and children. The Authority concluded that, while food allergies affect a relatively small proportion of the population, an allergic reaction can be severe, even potentially fatal and that it is increasingly apparent that people with food allergies or intolerances experience a very significant reduction in quality of life. |

The Authority concluded that, while food allergies affect a relatively small proportion of the population, an allergic reaction can be severe, even potentially fatal and that it is increasingly apparent that people with food allergies or intolerances experience a very significant reduction in quality of life.

| (3) | In September 2020, the Codex Alimentarius Commission adopted a code of practice on food allergen management for food business operators (CXC 80-2020) including recommendations on the mitigation of food allergens by a harmonised approach in the food chain based on general hygiene requirements. |

| (4) | Considering the adoption of the global standard CXC 80-2020 and the expectations of consumers and trade partners that food produced in the EU complies at least with such global standard, it is necessary to introduce requirements introducing good hygiene practices to prevent or limit the presence of substances causing allergies or intolerances, referred to in Annex II to Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011, in equipment, conveyances and/or containers used for the harvesting, transport or storage of foodstuffs. Since contamination of foodstuffs might take place both at the level of primary production and at stages beyond that production, both Annexes I and II to Regulation (EC) No 852/2004 should be amended. |

| (5) | The Farm to Fork Strategy for a fair, healthy and environmental friendly food system, adopted by the Commission, is a key component of the European Green Deal initiative. Reducing food waste is one of the objectives of the Farm to Fork Strategy which will also contribute to achieving a circular economy. Redistribution of food surplus for human consumption, in particular through food donations, where it is safe to do so, ensures the highest value use of edible food resources, while preventing food waste. |

| (6) | On 27 September 2018, the Authority adopted a second scientific opinion on hazard analysis approaches for certain small retail establishments and food donations (3). In the opinion, it states that food donations presents several new food safety challenges at retail level and therefore it recommends several additional general hygiene requirements. It is therefore necessary to lay down certain requirements in order to promote and facilitate redistribution of food, while guaranteeing its safety for consumers. |

The revised CXC 1-1969 introduces the ‘food safety culture’ concept as a general principle. Food safety culture enhances food safety by increasing the awareness and improving behaviour of employees in food establishments. Such impact on food safety has been demonstrated in several scientific publications. |

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) 2021/383

of 3 March 2021

amending Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council listing co-formulants which are not accepted for inclusion in plant protection products

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market and repealing Council Directives 79/117/EEC and 91/414/EEC (1), and in particular Article 27(2) and Article 78(2) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Co-formulants are described in point (c) of Article 2(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 as substances or preparations, which are used or intended to be used in a plant protection product or adjuvant, but are neither active substances nor safeners or synergists. |
| --- | --- |

(1)

Co-formulants are described in point (c) of Article 2(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 as substances or preparations, which are used or intended to be used in a plant protection product or adjuvant, but are neither active substances nor safeners or synergists.

| (2) | Co-formulants are unacceptable in plant protection products if their residues, consequent on application consistent with good plant protection practice, and having regard to realistic conditions of use, have a harmful effect on human or animal health or on groundwater or an unacceptable effect on the environment. Co-formulants are also unacceptable in plant protection products if their use, consequent on application consistent with good plant protection practice, and having regard to realistic conditions of use, have a harmful effect on human or animal health or have an unacceptable effect on plants, plant products or the environment. Such unacceptable co-formulants are to be listed in Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009. |
| --- | --- |

(2)

Co-formulants are unacceptable in plant protection products if their residues, consequent on application consistent with good plant protection practice, and having regard to realistic conditions of use, have a harmful effect on human or animal health or on groundwater or an unacceptable effect on the environment. Co-formulants are also unacceptable in plant protection products if their use, consequent on application consistent with good plant protection practice, and having regard to realistic conditions of use, have a harmful effect on human or animal health or have an unacceptable effect on plants, plant products or the environment. Such unacceptable co-formulants are to be listed in Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009.

| (3) | Co-formulants are substances or preparations used together with active substances in plant protection products and are thus equally spread in the environment.
