                                 EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
Following the discussions which took place in Parliament ^ and the Economic
                         2
and Social Committee on its proposai for a Council Directive amending
Directive 79 / 373 / EEC on the marketing of compound feedingstuffs ( C0M(88)303
        3
final ) , the Commission considers it appropriate that , pursuant to
Article 149 ( 3 ) of the Treaty , the said proposai be amended .
The first amendment involves only the wording and is in response to the wish
expressed by the European Parliament and the Economic and Social Committee to
have the word "producer " replaced by "manufacturer " to designate the person
who manufactures the compound feedingstuffs .
The second amendment concerns the particulars which must or may figure on the
label , packaging or container of the compound feedingstuffs .
In view of the confusion which the indication of a date of manufacture and a
minimum storage life expiry date could give rise to , it is proposed that only
the storage life expiry date should be required to be indicated . The date of
manufacture could , however , be indicated on a voluntary basis by the
manufacturer provided that it is expressed not as a date but as a period
calculated backwards from the storage expiry date .
