COUNCILDIRECTIVE

concerningadditivesinfeeding-stuffs
(70/524/EEC)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic
Community, and in particular Articles43 and 100 thereof;
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission;
Having regard to the Opinion of the European Parliament(1);
Having regard to the Opinion of the Economic and Social Committee;Whereaslives tock production occupiesa very important place in the
agriculture of the European Economic Community; whereas satisfac-tory results depend to a large extent on the use of appropriate good-
quality feeding-stuffs;
Whereas the existence of rules concerning feeding-stuffs is essential to
an increase in agricultural productivity;
Whereas animal feeding increasingly involves the use of additives;Whereasthe provis ionslaid down in the Member Statesby law, regu-
lation or administrative action concerning additives in feeding-stuffs,
insofar as they exist, differ as regards their basic principles; whereas
it follows that they directly affect the establishment and functioning ofthe common market and should therefore be harmonised;
Whereas, as a general rule, ‘additives’ means substances which
improve both the feeding-stuffs in which they are incorporated andlivestock production; whereas, for this reason, antibiotics should also
be regarded as additives since, when used in small quantities, they
have a physiological nutritional effect, although when used in largequantitiesthey have a medicinal effect;
Whereas these substances must not be used in feeding-stuffs for the
prime purpose of diagnosing, treating or preventing disease; whereasthey should, however be authorised for the sole purpose of improving
feeding-stuffs by preventing nutritional deficiencies;
Whereas, furthermore, certain purely medicinal substances such as
coccidiostats should, during a first stage, be regarded in relation tofeeding-stuffs as additives, since most Member States have been usingthem for collective prophylaxis, principally in poultry-farming;
whereas, however, they will be examined further if a directive on
medicinal feeding-stuffs is drawn up;
Whereas the basic principle underlying rules in this field must be that
only those additives which are named in this Directive may becontained in feeding-stuffs and only subject to the reguirements setout herein, and that such additives may not, subject to the exceptions
provided for, be used in any other way for the purposes of animal
feeding;
Whereas it is necessary, at the time when additives are authorised, to
make sure that they have a favourable effect on the characteristics ofthe feeding-stuffs to which they are added or on livestock production;
whereasthey mus t not endanger animal or human health nor harm the
consumer of livestock products; whereas, subject to the exceptionsprovided for, it is advisable to examine whether such additives maynow be used for the treatment or prevention of disease or whether thereare still serious reasons for restricting their use to medical or veterinarypurposes;1970L0524 — EN — 12.06.1996 — 003.001 — 5
(1) OJ No C 135, 14.12.1968, p. 20.
▼B
Whereas, because of the special situation of certain Member States, and
in particular because of their different systems of animal feeding, it isnecessary in certain cases to allow derogations from the above-
mentioned principlesto an extent acceptable for animal and human
health;
Whereas Member States should also retain the power to suspend the
use of certain additives or to lower their maximum levels if animal or
human health isbeing endangered; whereasMember Statess hould not,however, be able to have recourse to that power in order to hinder thefree movement of the variousproducts ;
Whereas provision should be made for feeding-stuffs containing addi-
tives to be specially labelled so that the user may know the nature ofthe additive and be protected against fraud; whereas this provisionrefersparticularly to ►
C1supplementary ◄feeding-stuffs containing
concentratesof certain additives ;
Whereas Community rules should not apply to feeding-stuffs intended
for export to third countries, as the latter generally apply differentrules;
Whereas, in order to ensure that the requirements laid down in respect
of additives are satisfied during marketing, Member States must makeprovision for appropriate control arrangements;
Whereas feeding-stuffs satisfying these requirements must be subject
only to the marketing restrictions provided for in this Directive;
Whereas, in order to facilitate implementation of this Directive, a
procedure should be applied which establishes close co-operation
between Member Satesand the Commis s ion within the Standing
Committee for Feeding-stuffs;
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:
Article 1
This Directive shall apply to additives in feedingstuffs.
Article 2
For the purposes of this Directive the following definitions shall apply:
(a)Additives: substances, or preparations containing substances, other
than premixturesreferred to in (h) which, when incorporated in
feedingstuffs, are likely to affect their characteristics or livestock
production;
(b)Feedingstuffs: productsof vegetable or animal origin in their
natural state, fresh or preserved, and products derived from theindustrial processing thereof, and organic or inorganic substances,used singly or in mixtures, whether or not containing additives,for oral animal feeding;
(c)Daily ration: the average total quantity of feedingstuffs, calculated
on a moisture content of 12 %, required daily by an animal of a
given species, age category and yield, to satisfy all its needs;
(d)Complete feedingstuffs: mixtures of feedingstuffs which, by reason
of their composition, are sufficient for a daily ration;
(e)Supplementary feedingstuffs: mixturesof feedings tuffswhich have
a high content of certain substances and which, by reason of theircomposition, are sufficient for a daily ration only if they are usedin combination with other feedingstuffs;
(f)Feed materials: variousproductsof vegetable or animal origin, in
their natural state, fresh or preserved, and products derived fromthe industrial processing thereof, and organic or inorganicsubstances, whether or not containing additives, which are intendedfor use in oral animal feeding either directly as such or after1970L0524 — EN — 12.06.1996 — 003.001 — 6

processing, in the preparation of compound feedingstuffs or as
carriersof premixtures ;
(g)Compound feedingstuffs: mixturesof feed materials , whether or not
containing additives, which are intended for oral animal feeding ascomplete or complementary feedingstuffs;
(h)Premixtures: mixturesof additivesor mixturesof one or more
additives with substances used as carriers, intended for the manu-facture of feedingstuffs;
(i)Animals: animals belonging to species normally nourished and kept
or consumed by man;
(j)Pet animals: animals belonging to species normally nourished and
kept, but not consumed, by man, except animals bred for fur.
Article 3

incorporated iscalculated s o that the total of the elementsadded and
the elementspres ent naturally doesnot exceed the maximum contentprovided for in AnnexesI and II.
2. The mixing of additivesnamed in thisDirective s hall be
permitted in premixturesand feedings tuffsonly where, in relation tothe effects desired, there is physical and chemical compatibilitybetween the componentsof the mixture.
3. Unless the mixture concerned is set out in Annex I or Annex II,
Member Statess hall require that:
(a) antibioticsand growth promotersmay not be mixed together, either
with substances from their own group or with substances from the
other group;
(b) coccidiostats may not be mixed with antibiotics and growth promo-
ters where coccidiostats also act, for the same category of animal,
asan antibiotic or asa growth promoter;
(c) coccidiostats and other medicial (SIC! medical) substances may not
be mixed together if their effectsare s imilar.
4. Member States may, for experimental or scientific purposes,
provide for derogationsfrom the provis ionsof Article 3 or of para-

stuffs or on livestock production when incorporated in suchfeedingstuffs;
(b) at the level permitted in feedingstuffs, it does not adversely
affect human or animal health or the environment, nor harmthe consumer by altering the characteristics of livestockproducts;
(c) its presence in feedingstuffs can be controlled;
(d) at the level permitted in feedingstuffs, treatment or prevention
of animal disease is excluded; this condition does not apply to
substances of the kind listed in Annex I (D);
(e) for serious reasons concerning human or animal health its use
