Ma juhin Teie tähelepanu asjaolule, et artikli 153 lõike 3 punkti b kohaldamisala võib olla piirang, võrreldes eesmärkidega, mis on püstitatud määruse ettepaneku artiklis 1: “tagada siseturu tõhus toimimine” tänu sellele, et kõrvaldatakse konkurentsi kahjustamine, mis on põhjustatud liikmesriikide olemasolevate õigusaktide lahknevusest.
I would draw your attention to the fact that the scope of Article 153(3)(b) might constitute a limitation of the objectives announced in Article 1 of the proposed regulation, ‘ensuring the effective functioning of the internal market’ by eliminating distortion of competition caused by divergences between current national legislations.
Mis puudutab akti teist eesmärki, siis tarbijakaitset ei saa pidada põhiliseks või ülekaalukaks, võttes arvesse, et sama eesmärgi tagab artikli 95 lõige 3, mis ongi seega sobiv õiguslik alus.
As to the second purpose of the act, consumer protection cannot be identified as the main or predominant component, given that the same purpose is provided by Article 95(3), which consequently constitutes an adequate legal basis.
Oma 31. märtsi 2005. aasta koosolekul otsustas õigusasjade komisjon niisiis ühehäälselt
At its meeting of 31 March 2005 the Committee on Legal Affairs accordingly decided unanimously
Hääletamise ajal olid kohal Andrzej Jan Szejna (kohuseid täitev esimees), Manuel Medina Ortega (arvamuse raportöör ja asetäitja Nicola Zingaretti), Alexander Nuno Alvaro (asetäitja Antonio Di Pietro), Maria Berger, Marek Aleksander Czarnecki, Bert Doorn, Piia-Noora Kauppi, Kurt Lechner (asetäitja Antonio López-Istúriz White), Klaus-Heiner Lehne, Antonio Masip Hidalgo, Hans-Peter Mayer, Aloyzas Sakalas, József Szájer (asetäitja Tadeusz Zwiefka) ja Jaroslav Zvěřina. soovitada Teile säilitada Euroopa Komisjoni pakutud õiguslik alus, s.t EÜ asutamislepingu artikkel 95, lisamata viidet EÜ asutamislepingu artiklile 153.
The following were present for the vote: Andrzej Jan Szejna (acting chairman), Manuel Medina Ortega (draftsman, and for Nicola Zingaretti), Alexander Nuno Alvaro (for Antonio Di Pietro), Maria Berger, Marek Aleksander Czarnecki, Bert Doorn, Piia-Noora Kauppi, Kurt Lechner (for Antonio López-Istúriz White), Klaus-Heiner Lehne, Antonio Masip Hidalgo, Hans-Peter Mayer, Aloyzas Sakalas, József Szájer (for Tadeusz Zwiefka) and Jaroslav Zvěřina. to recommend that you maintain the legal basis proposed by the Commission, namely Article 95 of the EC Treaty, without adding a reference to Article 153 of the EC Treaty.

In its White Paper on Food Safety the Commission proposed a directive as a measure to regulate fortified food.

The draftsperson is of the opinion that a change of measure from a directive to a regulation based on Art. 95 of the EC Treaty is justified by the fact that at this stage the Commission proposes to harmonise only the addition of nutrients on a voluntary basis.

It does not therefore intend to harmonise existing national rules on compulsory addition of nutrients to foods.

1 a) Hiljem võib osutuda vajalikuks kaaluda teatud muude ainete toitudele lisamist ning tõsiste ohutusprobleemide korral võtta vastu täiendavad õigusaktid.
(1a) It may subsequently prove necessary to consider the addition to food of certain other substances and, if there are genuine safety concerns, to adopt further legislation.
This recognises why "other substances" have not been defined within this draft Regulation and provides for the possibility that an amending Regulation could be needed in the light of subsequent scientific evidence.

(3) Käesolevas määruses sätestatakse vitamiinide ja mineraalide toitudele lisamine ning teatud muude ainete või neid sisaldavate koostisosade, mida lisatakse toitudele või kasutatakse toitude valmistamisel, kasutamine sellistel tingimustel, mille tulemusena manustatakse aineid tunduvalt suuremas koguses kui normaaltingimustes tasakaalustatud ja mitmekülgse toidu tarbimisel.
(3) This Regulation restricts itself in regulating the addition of vitamins and minerals to foods and the use of certain other substances or ingredients containing them that are added to foods or used in the manufacture of foods at conditions that result in the ingestion of amounts greatly exceeding those reasonably expected to be ingested under normal conditions of consumption of a balanced and varied diet.

(11 a) Tarbijate kaitsmise eesmärgil tuleks koostada pärast Euroopa Toiduohutuse Ametiga konsulteerimist positiivne loetelu teatud muudest bioaktiivsetest ainetest, mida võib toiduainete puhul kasutada.
(11a) For the protection of consumers, a positive list of certain other bioactive substances which may be used in foodstuffs should be established after consultation with the European Food Safety Authority.
Vitamins and minerals allowed for fortification are on a positive list.

(12) Keemilised ained, mida kasutatakse nende vitamiinide ja mineraalainete allikana, mida lisatakse toidule, peavad 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.
Lähtudes eespool nimetatud ohutuse ja biosaadavuse kriteeriumidest peaks toidu teaduskomitee poolt heaks kiidetud ained (12. mail 1999. aastal avaldatud arvamus), mida võib kasutada imikute ja väikelaste toidu valmistamisel, eritoiduks ettenähtud toidus ja toidulisandites, sisalduma selles positiivses loetelus.
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.

Lähtudes eespool nimetatud ohutuse ja bioloogilise saadavuse kriteeriumidest peaks toidu teaduskomitee poolt heaks kiidetud ained (12. mail 1999. aastal avaldatud arvamus), mida võib kasutada kõikide elanikkonna rühmade, sh imikute ja väikelaste jaoks mõeldud toitude tootmisel, eritoiduks ettenähtud toitudes ja toidulisandites, sisalduma selles positiivses loetelus.
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.
Põhjendus 21
Recital 21
(21) Normaalne ja mitmekülgne toit sisaldab paljusid koostisosasid, mis omakorda sisaldavad paljusid aineid.
(21) A normal and varied diet contains many ingredients which in turn contain many substances.
Nende ainete või koostisosade manustamine normaalse ja tavapärase toiduga ei põhjusta ohtu ning seda ei pea reguleerima.
The intake of these substances or ingredients resulting from their normal and traditional use in current diets would not cause concern and does not need to be regulated.
Mõned ained, mis ei ole vitamiinid ega mineraalained või neid sisaldavad koostisosad, lisatakse toitudele ekstraktide või kontsentraatidena ning selle tulemusena võib manustatav kogus osutuda oluliselt suuremaks piisava ja mitmekülgse toiduga manustatavast kogusest.
Some substances other than vitamins and minerals or ingredients containing them are added to foods as extracts or concentrates and may result in intakes that are significantly higher than those that could be ingested through eating an adequate and varied diet.
Taolise toimimisviisi ohutus on mõnel juhul tõsiselt küsitav ning selle kasutegur ebaselge, mistõttu tuleks seda piirata.
The safety of such practices is in some cases seriously contested and the benefits are unclear; therefore they should be regulated.
Sellistel juhtudel on kohane, et turule paisatavate toiduainete ohutuse eest vastutavad toidukäitlejad tõestaksid nende ohutust.
It is appropriate, in such cases, that food operators, responsible for the safety of the food products they place in the market, assume the burden of proof of the safety of them.
Following the deletion of "other substances" in other amendments, the reasoning outlined in this recital is no longer required and should be deleted.
