COUNCILDIRECTIVE

concerningcertain productsusedinanimalnutrition
(82/471/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(1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament(2),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee(3),
Whereaslives tock production occupiesa very important place in the
agriculture of the Community and satisfactory results depend to a largeextent on the use of appropriate and good quality feedingstuffs;
Whereas the existence of rules concerning feedingstuffs is essential to an
increase in agricultural productivity;
Whereas consumption of feed proteins is continually rising in the
Community due to the ever increasing needs of livestock production;
Whereasthisincreas ing demand hasbeen accompanied in recent years
by an appreciable decline in the supply on the world market of certain
protein feedingstuffs;
Whereas this shortage has caused the feedingstuffs industry to carry out
research into substitution products to assure the availability of supplies;
Whereasthe provis ionslaid down in the Member Statesby law,
regulation or administrative action concerning these products, in so faras they exist, differ as regards their basic principles; whereas it followsthat they directly affect the establishment and functioning of the
common market and should therefore be harmonized;
Whereas these substitution products are produced by new technical
processes and it is therefore desirable to regulate their marketing asfeedingstuffs or constituents of feedingstuffs by prescribing, for each
group concerned, which individual productss hall be authorized and
under what conditionsof us e;
Whereas it is necessary, before including a new product in one of the
groupsconcerned, to as certain that it hasthe required nutritional value;
whereas it must be established that these products, when used sensibly,have no detrimental effect on human or animal health or on theenvironment and do not harm the consumer by impairing the distinctivefeaturesof animal products ;
Whereas, in order to ensure compliance with the fundamental principles
laid down for the authorization, a dossier should be submitted officiallyby a Member State for products belonging to certain groups; whereas, inorder to facilitate the examination of the substances concerned, thesedossiers should be prepared in accordance with the common guidelines
to be set by the Council not later than the date of application of the
Directive;
Whereas it is desirable, pending a Community decision, to allow
Member Statestemporarily to maintain the national authorizationsthey
have granted for productswhich do not at pres ent appear in the Annex tothe Directive or for specific products meeting in certain cases otherconditions; whereas, however, for products obtained from yeasts of the‘Candida’ variety and cultivated on n-alkanesa Community decis ionshould be taken within two years of the notification of this Directive;1982L0471 — EN — 20.11.2003 — 003.001 — 2

(3) OJ No C 84, 8. 4. 1978, p. 4.

Whereas non-protein nitrogenous compounds, by reason of their indirect
provision of protein, must be subject to the provisions of this Directive;whereas it is consequently desirable to amend with regard to its Annexes
Council Directive 70/524/EEC of 23 November 1970 concerning
additivesin feedings tuffs (
1), which temporarily regulatesthe us e of
productsof thisgroup;
Whereas the nutritional value and safety of the products in question
depend to a large extent on their compositional characteristics,conditions of use and processes of manufacture; whereas it is thereforeessential to provide in certain cases for labelling to protect the user
against fraud and to facilitate the optimal use of the products available to
him;
Whereasit isnot appropriate to apply Community provis ionsto the
products concerned, or to feedingstuffs containing these products,intended for export to third countries because in general these countrieshave their own regulations;
Whereas, in order to ensure that the requirements of this Directive are
satisfied when these products, or feedingstuffs containing theseproducts, are placed on the market, Member States must make provision
for appropriate control arrangements;
Whereas products, or feedingstuffs containing such products, satisfying
these requirements must be subject only to the marketing restrictions
provided for in thisDirective;
Whereas an appropriate Community procedure is essential to adapt the
provisions of the Annex and the guidelines laid down for the submissionof dossiers relating to certain products and, where necessary, to fixcriteria of composition and purity as well as the physico-chemical andbiological propertiesof thes e productsin the light of the development of
scientific and technical knowledge;
Whereas, with a view to providing all necessary guarantees, the
Community procedure adopted should make provision in certain cases of
amendment of the Annex for the compulsory consultation of theScientific Committee for Animal Nutrition and the Scientific Committeefor Food, set up by the Commission;
WhereasMember Statess hould retain the power, if human or animal
health is endangered, temporarily to suspend authorization of the use ofa product or to amend any provisions relating thereto;
Whereas, in order that a Member State should not abuse that power,
possible amendments to the Annex based on supporting documents
should be decided by emergency Community procedure;
Whereas, in order to facilitate implementation of this Directive, a
procedure should be applied which establishes close cooperationbetween Member Statesand the Commis s ion within the StandingCommittee for Feedingstuffs set up by Decision 70/372/EEC(
2),
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:
