Moreover, over-regulation can increase costs, which the service-provider will then have to pass on to travellers, making rail transport more expensive, so that it will lose more ground to the car and other modes of transport.

10) On võimalik tõendada, et käesoleval ajal esineb ühenduses mõnede toitainete puudust, kuigi mitte eriti sageli.
(10) Some nutrient deficiencies, although not very frequent, can be demonstrated to exist today in the Community.
Muutused ühenduse sotsiaal-majanduslikus olukorras ja erinevate elanikkonnarühmade eluviisid on toonud endaga kaasa erineva toitainevajaduse ja muutuvad toitumistavad.
Changes in the socio-economic situation prevailing in the Community and the life styles of different groups of the population have led to different nutritional requirements and to changing dietary habits.
See omakorda on viinud muutusteni erinevate elanikkonnarühmade energia- ja toitainevajadustes ning nende rühmade puhul teatavate vitamiinide ja mineraalainete tarbimiskogusteni, mis jäävad allapoole erinevates liikmesriikides soovitatud koguseid.
This in turn has led to changes in the energy and nutrient requirements of various groups of the population and to intakes of certain vitamins and minerals for these groups that would be below those recommended in different Member States.
Lisaks sellele viitavad uuemad teaduslikult põhjendatud teadmised sellele, et optimaalse tervisliku seisundi ja heaolu säilitamiseks vajalikud teatud toitainete tarbimiskogused võiksid olla praegu soovitatavatest kogustest suuremad.
In addition, progress in scientific knowledge indicates that intakes of some nutrients for maintaining optimal health and well being could be higher than those currently recommended.
Sellel taustal peetakse vajalikuks, et ühenduse eeskirjades peaks “rikastamise” mõiste hõlmama Codex Alimentarius e vastavates üldistes põhimõtetes sätestatut, kuid nimetatud mõistet tuleks ka laiendada.
Taking into account the above it is considered that in Community rules the definition on fortification should include but also be extended beyond what is provided in the relevant Codex Alimentarius General Principles.
The Commission states that some nutrient deficiencies are very rarely recorded without, however, giving details of these observations.
The Commission states that some nutrient deficiencies are very rarely recorded without, however, giving details of these observations.
Nevertheless, such nutrient deficiencies are used by the Commission to propose and justify opportunities for voluntarily adding vitamins and minerals to all foods.

The Community should aim for a market situation in which producers add vitamins and minerals to foods on nutritional or health grounds and not for marketing reasons.
The Community should aim for a market situation in which producers add vitamins and minerals to foods on nutritional or health grounds and not for marketing reasons.
Furthermore, fortified foodstuffs containing certain nutrients for a specific, closely defined population group (with a deficiency or with a higher requirement, for instance pregnant women) can already be marketed as foodstuffs for particular nutritional requirements or as foodstuffs for medicinal purposes under existing Community rules.

12) Keemilised ained, mida kasutatakse nende vitamiinide ja mineraalainete allikana, mida lisatakse toidule, peaksid olema ohutud ja ühtlasi biosaadavad, s.t organismi jaoks tarvitamiskõlblikud.
(12) The chemical substances used as sources of vitamins and minerals to be added to food should be safe and also be bio-available i.e. available to be used by the body.
Seetõttu tuleks koostada nende ainete positiivne loetelu.
For this reason a positive list of these substances should also be established.
Eespool nimetatud ohutuse ja biosaadavuse kriteeriumidest lähtuvalt peaksid selles positiivses loetelus olema toidu teaduskomitee poolt heaks kiidetud ained (12. mail 1999. aastal avaldatud arvamus), mida võib kasutada imiku- ja väikelapsetoidu valmistamisel, eritoiduks ettenähtud toidus ja toidulisandites.
Such substances that have been approved by the Scientific Committee for Food (opinion expressed on 12 May 1999), on the basis of the above criteria of safety and bioavailability, and can be used in the manufacture of foods intended for infants and young children, in other foods for particular nutritional uses or in food supplements should appear in this positive list.

Such substances that have been approved by the Scientific Committee for Food (opinion expressed on 12 May 1999), on the basis of the above criteria of safety and bioavailability, and can be used in the manufacture of foods intended for all sections of the population, including infants and young children, in other foods for particular nutritional uses or in food supplements should appear in this positive list.
Different groups of the population have different needs for either supplementary intake of vitamins, minerals or other substances.

Voluntary fortification with these nutrients may not counteract particular nutritional needs of vulnerable groups, such as children, pregnant women or elderly.
Voluntary fortification with these nutrients may not counteract particular nutritional needs of vulnerable groups, such as children, pregnant women or elderly.
16) Sel põhjusel tuleks nimetatud piirnormid ja vajaduse korral muud nende ainete toiduainetele lisamist piiravad tingimused vastu võtta nende ainete üldtunnustatud teaduslikel andmetel põhineva teadusliku riskianalüüsiga kindlaks tehtud ohutut ülempiiri ning nende ainete teistest toiduainetest saadavaid võimalikke koguseid arvesse võttes.
(16) For that reason these maximum levels and any other conditions restricting their addition to foods, where necessary, should be adopted taking into account their upper safe levels established by scientific risk assessment based on generally acceptable scientific data and their potential intake from other foods.
Arvesse tuleks võtta ka kontrollandmeid elanikkonna vitamiinide ja mineraalainete tarbimise kohta.
Due account should also be taken of the population reference intakes of vitamins and minerals.
Kui teatud vitamiinide ja mineraalainete puhul on vaja kehtestada piirangud selles osas, millistele toiduainetele neid võib lisada, tuleks pidada esmatähtsaks nende lisamise eesmärki ja toidu tähtsust üldisele toitumisele.
Where it is necessary, for certain vitamins and minerals, to establish restrictions regarding the foods to which they can be added, priority should be given according to the purpose of the addition and the contribution of the food to the overall diet.
Kui teatud vitamiinide ja mineraalainete puhul on vaja kehtestada piirangud selles osas, millistele toiduainetele neid võib lisada (näiteks joodi lisamine üksnes soolale) , tuleks pidada esmatähtsaks nende lisamise eesmärki ja toidu tähtsust üldisele toitumisele.
Where it is necessary, for certain vitamins and minerals, to establish restrictions regarding the foods to which they can be added (e.g. the addition of iodine only to salt) , priority should be given according to the purpose of the addition and the contribution of the food to the overall diet.
To ensure that the harmonisation of the addition of iodine to food in Europe is consistent with the worldwide system of universal salt iodisation for preventing iodine deficiency-related diseases.

20 a) EÜ asutamislepingu artiklites 28 ja 30 nähakse ette erand ühendusesisese kaupade vaba liikumise reeglist ning seda erandit võivad liikmesriikide ametiasutused rakendada tingimusel, et teatavad tingimused on täidetud.
(20a) Articles 28 and 30 of the EC Treaty provide an exception to the rule of free movement of goods within the Community which national authorities can invoke provided that certain conditions are satisfied.
Kasutades oma kaalutlusõigust EÜ asutamislepingu alusel rahva tervise kaitsmisel, peavad liikmesriikide ametiasutused järgima proportsionaalsuse põhimõtet.
In exercising their discretion relating to the protection of public health under the EC Treaty, national authorities must comply with the principle of proportionality.
Liikmesriikide ametiasutused peavad tõestama, et nende eeskirjad on vajalikud selleks, et tagada üksikasjalikule riskianalüüsile tuginev tõhus kaitse.
It is for the national authorities to show that their rules are necessary to give effective protection based on a detailed assessment of the risk.
