THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic
Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2771/75 of 29 October
1975 on the common organization of the market in eggs (1), as last
amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1235/89 (2), and in particular Article
2 (2) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 2771/75 provides for the setting of
marketing standards which may relate in particular to grading byquality and weight, packing, warehousing, transport, presentation andmarking of eggs;
Whereas such standards can contribute to an improvement in the
quality of eggs and, consequently, facilitate their sale: whereas it istherefore in the interest of producers, traders and consumers thatmarketing standards should be applied in respect of hen eggs suitablefor human consumption;
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 2772/75(
3) laid down certain marketing
standards for eggs; whereas those standards need to be reviewed regu-larly in order to provide better guarantees and more accurateinformation to the ultimate consumer of eggs, in particular in the light
of evolving trade practices;
Whereas experience with the existing standards and consultation of
bothtrade and consumers' representative organizations h ave made
apparent the need for further amendments and for certain detailed rules
to be adopted in accordance withArticle 17 of Regulation (EEC) No2771/75 in order to facilitate future amendments;
Whereas in order to fix such standards a clear distinction must be
drawn between eggs suitable for human consumption and eggs, in
particular broken or incubated eggs, which are not, and which, in prin-ciple, are for use in industries other than the food industry; whereassuch rules also require that eggs of other kinds should not be mixedwithh en eggs;
Whereas the standards must be applicable to all hen eggs marketed on
the territory of the Community; whereas it nonetheless seems advisableto exclude from the scope of their application certain forms of salefrom producer to consumer where small quantities are involved;whereas, moreover eggs delivered from the place of production to a
packing centre or to certain wholesale markets and eggs intended for
use in the food industry should be exempted from grading andmarking;
Whereas, therefore, a list should be drawn up of suppliers to undertak-
ings entitled to grade eggs by quality and weight;
Whereas the grading of eggs should be confined solely to undertakings
which are adequately equipped for the purpose;
Whereas the quality requirements for eggs must be easy for consumers
to undertand and must be in keeping withth e efforts at rationalizationmade at all stages of distribution; whereas, therefore, a limited butadequate number of quality and weight grades should be laid down;1990R1907 — EN — 01.01.2004 — 005.002 — 2
(1) OJ No L 282, 1. 11. 1975, p. 49.
(2) OJ No L 128, 11. 5. 1989, p. 29.
(3) OJ No L 282, 1. 11. 1975, p. 56.
▼B
Whereas the consumer must be able to distinguish between eggs of
different quality and weight grades; whereas this requirement can bemet by marking the eggs and packs;
Whereas it is necessary to determine the indications that may or must
be used on packs; whereas the use of certain optional indications mustbe subject to detailed rules to be adopted in accordance withth e proce-dure laid down in Article 17 of Regulation (EEC) No 2771/75;
Whereas the marking of ‘fresh eggs’ can be optional, since the obliga-
tory marking of other eggs enables them to be easily distinguished;
Whereas anyone marketing ‘fresh eggs’ should be permitted to stamp
sucheggs withoth er particulars serving publicity purposes;
Whereas it is desirable that operators should be permitted to stamp
certain indications already provided for in the case of small packsdirectly on eggs; whereas the use of these indications should be madesubject to conditions analogous to those provided for in the case of
packs, as well as to rigorous surveillance; whereas in the case of eggs
intended for loose sales, the grading date should replace the packingdate;
Whereas any other markings might affect trading conditions in the
Community;
Whereas the definitions laid down in previous Community Regulations
relating to the packaging and manner of presentation for sale of eggs
need to be drafted more strictly; whereas it has become essential to
provide the necessary safeguards for the retail sale of eggs withoutspecial packaging;
Whereas experience has demonstrated that the present provisions only
allowing the use of the recommended date for sale in addition to theobligatory packing date on eggs or their packaging are too inflexible;
whereas provision therefore needs to be made for the possibility of
using certain other dates under appropriate conditions; whereas presentpractice shows that the indication of the packing period can bedispensed with;
Whereas such common provisions should be adopted for packing as
will ensure that the quality of the eggs is maintained and will facilitate
trade and the supervision of compliance with standards;
Whereas in order to leave a choice open to the consumer and to ensure
that he is offered goods complying with quality and weight standards,retailers must display the appropriate information either on the goodsoffered or beside them;
Whereas it is essential, in the interests of both producer and consumer,
that eggs imported from third countries should comply with Commu-
nity standards;
Whereas special provisions in force in certain third countries may
justify derogations which in such cases allow exportation outside theCommunity; whereas it seems appropriate to exclude from the scopeof Community standards eggs imported from third countries or
exported to third countries in small quantities, by the consumer for his
personal use;
Whereas it is for each Member State to designate the agency or agen-
cies responsible for supervision; whereas the procedures for suchsupervision must be uniform;
Whereas it is also for each Member State to lay down penalties for
infringements;1990R1907 — EN — 01.01.2004 — 005.002 — 3
▼B
Whereas the provisions of this Regulation are without prejudice to any
Community provisions which may be adopted in order to harmonizethe provisions of veterinary and foodstuffs legislation aimed at
protecting the health of people and animals and at preventing falsifica-
tion and fraud;
Whereas, given the above substantive amendments and the need for a
number of other purely textual amendments to Regulation (EEC) No2772/75, it is advisable for the sake of clarity to re-draft the legislation
applicable in this field;
Whereas, therefore, Regulation (EEC) No 2772/75 may be repealed,
