Directive 92/87/EEC is hereby repealed.

Whereas feed materials are often treated with chemicals
and may therefore contain certain chemical impurities
resulting from the use, during their manufacture, of tech-

70/524/EEC; whereas in order to guarantee that
feed
materials are only put into circulation if they are sound,
genuine and of merchantable quality and to guarantee the
smooth operation of

materials

resulting from their manufacturing processes should be

the first sentence of paragraph 1, in feedingstuffs for certain animals other than ruminants, as
permitted by Article 1(2) of Directive 90/667/EEC, the statement required in paragraph 1 must
mention in addition the other animal species or categories of animals to which it has extended the
