COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 729/93 of 29 March 1993 amending Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2892/92 on the application of a minimum import price for frozen blackcurrants originating in Poland

FOURTH  COMMISSION DIRECTIVE
of 3 June 1986
amending the Annex to Council Directive 74/63/EEC on the fixing of maximum permitted levels for undesirable substances and products in feedingstuffs

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 74/63/EEC of 17 December 1973 on the fixing of maximum permitted levels for undesirable substances and products in feedingstuffs (1) as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3768/85 (2), and in particular Article 6 thereof,
Whereas Directive 74/63/EEC provides for regular amendment of its Annex to take account of advances in scientific and technical knowledge;
Whereas, in so far as there are no special provisions for complementary feedingstuffs, theses may not, allowing for the dilutions prescribed for their use, contain levels of undesirable substances and products in excess of those fixed in the Annex to the Directive for complete feedingstuffs;
Whereas it appears that keeping to this rule does not always permit the prescribed maximum levels for complete feedingstuffs to be respected, in cases where complementary feedingstuffs are taken into the daily ration with other feedingstuffs that are also contaminated; whereas it is suitable therefore to limit the presence of certain undesirable substances or products in complementary feedingstuffs by fixing appropriate maximum levels;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Directive are in accordance with the opinion on the Standing Committee for Feedingstuffs:
The Annex to Directive 74/63/EEC is amended according to the Annex of the present Directive.
The Member States shall bring into force, on 31 December 1987 at the latest, the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with Article 1. They shall forthwith inform the Commission thereof.
This Directive is addressed to the Member States.
