WRITTEN QUESTION E-1100/00

by Graham Watson (ELDR) to the Commission

(7 April 2000)

Subject: The use of Nandrolone

Can the Commission comment on the implications of Council Directive 96/22/EC (1) of 29 April 1996
prohibiting the use of the precursors of Nandrolone in foodstuffs after an Italian sports governing body
proved that it was to be found in an iron complex taken by athletes?

Can the Commission also confirm that the presence of unlabelled Nandrolone precursors is unlawful under
Council Directive 79/112/EC (2) of 18 December 1978?

(1) OJ L 125, 23.5.1996, p. 3.
(2) OJ L 33, 8.2.1979, p. 1.

Answer given by Mr Byrne on behalf of the Commission

(22 May 2000)

As the Commission replied to Written Question P-1611/99 (1) by the Honourable Member, according to
Council Directive 96/22/EC of 29 April 1996, concerning the prohibition on the use in stockfarming of
certain substances having a hormonal or thyrostatic action and of (cid:223)-agonists, and repealing Directives 81/
602/EEC, 88/146/EEC and 88/299/EEC the administering to a farm or aquaculture animal, by any means
whatsoever, of substances having androgenic action, such as nandrolone, is prohibited. If residues of such
substances are found in such animals or processed products derived from such animals and marketed,
these should be removed immediately from the market and destroyed.

The Commission has no information about the exact nature of the products mentioned by the Honourable
Member. Foods intended for satisfying particular nutritional requirements of athletes are not yet covered
by specific Community legislation and national rules, where they exist, apply.

In general under Council Directive 79/112/EEC of 18 December 1978 on the approximation of the laws of
the Member States relating to the labelling, presentation and advertising of foodstuffs for sale to the
ultimate consumer, all ingredients of foods should appear on the list of ingredients on the labelling of
foods.
