Drafting amendments
5.5.1.
Amendments to the layout/presentation (a) The headings of some sections of the specification have been changed, and lettering has been added to improve readability.
The section headed ‘Product characteristics’ in the previous specification is now headed ‘B.
Product description’.
The section previously headed ‘Geographical area’ is now headed ‘C.
Demarcation of the geographical area’.
The section previously headed ‘Production method’ is now headed ‘E.
Method of production’.
(This amendment does not concern the single document.)
(b) The following section has been inserted: ‘A.
Name of product: “Cecina de León”’.
(This amendment does not concern the single document).
(c) In the section headed ‘B.
Product description’, in the subsection about the contra, the reference to the cut has been changed from ‘the contra itself’ and the redondo (in the previous specification) to the ‘centro de contra’ and the redondo.
The name has been changed to make the product description easier to understand, as the centro de contra is now one of the cured cuts used in the end product.
(This amendment also applies to point 3.2 of the single document.) (d) The capital letters identifying each stage of the production process have been replaced with lowercase letters to prevent confusion with the letters indicating the sections of the product specification.
(This amendment does not concern the single document.)
(e) In the description of the resting stage, the following error has been corrected: ‘The purpose of this stage is to remove the salt content’.
In fact, it is the water content that is removed at this stage.
(This amendment does not concern the single document.)
(f) An error has been corrected in the section ‘Link with the area’: The part referring to the Tratado de Agricultura General [General agricultural treatise] states that it is possible to make cecina from other types of meat, including beef cecina.
The latter reference to cecina is incorrect.
It should say ‘meat’, as it refers to a type of meat.
(This amendment also applies to point 5 of the single document.)
