Regulation (EC) No. 767/2009
of 13 July 2009
about sales and use of feed, change of Regulation (EC) No. 1831/2003 and repealing Council Directive 79/373 / EEC Commission Directive 80/511 / EEC, Council Directive 82/471 / EEC, 83/228 / EEC, 93/74 / EEC, 93/113 / EEC and 96/25 / EC and Commission decision 2004/217 / EC

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION -
regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, in particular Article 37 and Article 152. 4 letter b)
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, | || Having regard to the opinion of the European economic and social Committee, 1
after consultation with the Committee of the Regions,
accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251.2 and
Whereas:

1)

The pursuit of a high level of protection for human and animal health is one of the basic objectives of food law, as laid down in Regulation (EC) No. 178/2002 of 28 January 2002 laying down the general principles and requirements of food law, establishing the European food safety authority and laying down procedures in matters of næringsmiddeltrygghet.3 at that Regulation also stipulates earth-to-table principle, where feed is defined as a sensitive stage at the beginning of the food chain. To ensure a high level of protection of human health is one of the basic objectives of this Regulation.

2)
The production of feed is an important deposition area for European agricultural products considering that the largest part of the funds used to fôrvareproduksjon are agricultural products listed in the Treaty Annex I. Moreover, the lining of the utmost importance for the 5 million farmers Community, as it constitutes the largest expenditure item.

3)
Feeds can come in the form of feed materials, compound feed, feed additives, premixes or medicated. The rules for the trading of feed additives are laid down in European Parliament and Council Regulation (EC) No. 1831/2003 22 September 2003 on additives fôrvarer4 and medicated in Council Directive 90/167 / EEC of 26 March 1990 laying down the conditions for preparation, sale and use of medicated within Fellesskapet.5

4)
The existing legislation on the marketing and use of feed materials and compound feed, which includes petfood, ie Council Directive 79/373 / EEC of 2 April 1979 on the marketing of compound feed, 6 of Directive 93/74 / EEC of 13 september 1993 on feedingstuffs with special nutritional purposes, 7 Council Directive 96/25 / EC of 29 april 1996 on the sale and use of fôrmidler8 Directive 82/471 / EEC of 30 June 1982 on certain products used in fôrvarer9 ( "bioproteins"), should be updated and replaced by a single Regulation. For reasons of clarity, Council Directive 83/228 / EEC of 18 April 1983 laying down guidelines for the assessment of certain products used in fôrvarer10 and Commission Directive 80/511 / EEC of 2 May 1980 for permission in certain cases to promote compound feed in packs or containers are not sealed, 11 repealed.

5)
As a result of the abolishment of Directive 79/373 / EEC by this Regulation, Council Directive 93/113 / EC of 14 December 1993 concerning the use and marketing of enzymes, micro-organisms and preparations of these in fôrvarer12 also repealed. As a result of the abolishment of Directive 79/373 / EEC and considering that this Regulation includes rules concerning the labeling of feed additives should be Article 16 of Council Directive 70/524 / EEC of 23 November 1970 on feed additives, 13 that still came after the abolishment of the Directive 70/524 / EEC by Regulation (EC) no. 1831/2003 repealed.

6)
Unlike food, as defined in Regulation (EC) No. 178/2002, includes the definition of feed does not water. Moreover, considering that water is not traded as foodstuffs, this Regulation should not include conditions for water used in animal nutrition. It should, however, apply to feed consumed with water. Feed business use of water covered by Regulation (EC) No. 183/2005 of 12 January 2005 laying down requirements for feed hygiene, 14 which states that it should be used clean water whenever necessary to prevent contamination that could be hazardous and that water used for the production of feed should be of suitable quality.

7)
Considering the risk of contamination of food and feed chain, this Regulation should apply to feed both animals for food production and animals not kept for food production, including wild animals.

8)
responsibilities of business operators, as set out in Regulation (EC) No. 178/2002 and Regulation (EC) No. 183/2005 shall apply mutatis mutandis to feed for animals not kept for food production .

9)
To ensure that this Regulation, Member States should carry out official controls in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 882/2004 of 29 April 2004 on official controls to ensure compliance with feed and food law, animal health and animal welfare overholdes.15 These controls should include not only the mandatory but also the voluntary labeling information. To make it possible to control the data for composition, should be set acceptable tolerances for the values ​​indicated in the labeling.

10)

To manage risks related to feed safety should be the list of agents whose turnover as animal feed is prohibited pursuant to Commission Decision 2004/217 / EC, 16 as well as a list of products whose sales as animal feed is limited, be included in an annex to this Regulation. That such attachments are, however, should not be interpreted so that all products not listed, could be considered safe.

11)
The distinction between feed materials, feed additives and other products such as veterinary drugs has implications for the conditions for the sale of such products. Feedstuffs used primarily to meet animals' needs, for example for energy, nutrients, minerals or dietary fiber. They are usually not chemically well defined except for basic nutritional constituents. Effects which can be justified by scientific assessment and which apply only to feed additives and veterinary medicinal products, should be exempted from the objective uses of feed materials. It is therefore appropriate to draw up non-binding guidelines for distinguishing between these types of products. In duly justified cases the Commission should be empowered to clarify whether a product constitutes an a feedstuff as defined in this Regulation.

12)
definition of supplementary Directive 79/373 / EEC gave rise to problems with application in several member states. It is appropriate to clarify the difference between supplementary and premix with respect to the application of Regulation (EC) No. 183/2005.

13)
To ensure uniform application of the legislation, should feedstuffs and supplementary not have a content of additives above a certain level. However, highly concentrated feed, such as licking buckets containing minerals, used for direct feeding if the composition meets the particular nutritional purpose with respect to the relevant application. The terms of use of such feed should be specified on the label to ensure that the rules relating to the content of additives in the daily ration are complied with.

14)
Directive 82/471 / EEC aims to improve the supply of feed used as direct and indirect protein sources in the Community. This Directive requires a procedure of prior authorization for all possible bioproteins. However, it is only given a few new permits until the current date, and the lack of protein-rich feed is still evident. Thus, the general requirement for prior authorization before turnover proved to be an obstacle, and security risks may instead be handled by prohibiting hazardous products based on market surveillance. In cases where the outcome of the risk assessment of a bio-protein was or is negative, should sales or use of the prohibited. Therefore, the special requirement of a general procedure for prior authorization before turnover bioproteins repealed, with the consequence that the safety system for such products be the same as for all other feed materials. The existing restrictions or prohibition of certain bio-should not be affected.

15)
provisions of Directive 93/74 / EC which was implemented by Commission Directive 2008/38 / EC of 5 March 2008 establishing a list of uses for animal feed with special nutritional purposes, 17 have proven to work abrupt. The list of applications that were developed, should therefore be maintained and it should be made for updating it in this Regulation. In particular, the European Food Safety Authority consulted on such Bailee efficiency and safety when on the basis of available scientific and technological information is reason to believe that the use of the specific feed may not meet the particular nutritional purpose, or that it has harmful effects on animals and human health, the environment or animal welfare.

16)
Scientific evidence should be the main factor that should be considered when it lodged allegations of feed, and feed business operators who voted for such claims should be able to document them. A claim can be documented scientifically by taking into account all available scientific information, and by an assessment of the overall documentation.

17)

The marking serves as help in carrying out enforcement, tracking and control. In addition, labeling give buyers the information necessary for them to be able to hit the best possible choice for their needs, and they should be consistent, coherent, clear and understandable. As buyers, especially farmers, make their choices not only at the outlet where they can examine the packaging of feed, the requirement of information provided on the label not only apply labels on the product, but also for other types of communication between seller and buyer. These principles should also apply also presentation and advertising of feed.

18)
labeling include mandatory and optional information. The mandatory information should consist of general labeling requirements and specific requirements for respectively feedstuffs or compound feed, and additional requirements for feed with special nutritional purposes, contaminated feedstuffs and petfood.

19)
The current situation with respect to chemical impurities from the production process of feed materials and from technical auxiliaries are not satisfactory. To ensure a high level of feed safety and thus a high level of protection of human health, and to improve transparency, it should be adopted provisions establishing acceptable levels of such chemical impurities in accordance with good practice as referred to in Regulation (EC) No. 183 / 2005.

20)
The principle that only certain feed additives have to be labeled once they are used in feed materials and compound feed, works well. However, categorization according to Regulation (EC) No. 1831/2003 be updated and modernized, especially because pet owners might be confused by certain forms of labeling of food additives.

21)
As a result of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) - and dioxin crises in 2002 by Directive 2002/2 / EC of 28 January 2002 amending Council Directive 79/373 / EEC on marketing of compound feed, 18 on the initiative of the European Parliament, introduced a requirement that the weight percentage should be set for all feed materials in compound feed. Food and feed safety has also been improved significantly as a result of Regulation (EC) No. 178/2002 and Regulation (EC) No. 183/2005 and their implementing measures, particularly as a result of that it is focused on the responsibility of the responsible feed and food business operators, the improved tracking system, the introduction of the principle of hazard analysis and critical control points (HACCP) in the feed business and developing guidelines for good hygiene practice in feed businesses. These positive results, as reflected in the notifications to the rapid alert system for food and feed (RASFF), allows the obligation to indicate the weight percentage of all feed materials in compound feed on the labeling is no longer necessary to ensure a high level of feed safety and thus a high level of protection to human health. The exact percentages may, however, be provided on a voluntary basis to provide buyers with accurate information. Considering that the competent authorities have access to information on the precise weight of all feed materials in compound feed, they should also at the basis of any urgency relating to human or animal health or relating to the environment, and in accordance with Directive 2004 / 48 / EC of 29 april 2004 on the enforcement of intellectual property rights, 19 could provide additional information to buyers.

22)
To ensure that the buyer receives sufficient information and are not misled, should the exact weight percentage, however, required in such cases where the relevant feedstuff is highlighted on the label to a premix.

23)
The indication of the feed materials in the feed in order of decreasing weight, already provides important information about the item composition. In certain areas where the producer is not obliged to include certain information on the label, the buyer should have the possibility to request further information. In such cases, maintaining a margin of + / 15% of the specified value.

24)
Manufacturers' intellectual property rights should be protected. For the enforcement of such intellectual property should Directive 2004/48 / EC apply. It should also be acknowledged that the premix quantitative composition, in contrast to the terms of the feed ingredients contained within them, under certain circumstances, be regarded as confidential information that must be protected.

25)

European Parliament and Council Directive 2002/32 / EC of 7 May 2002 on undesirable substances in fôrvarer20 shall not apply to the labeling of feed containing too high levels of undesirable substances should be laid down to ensure adequate labeling and compliance prohibition of dilution set out in Article 5 of that Directive, until such contaminated feedstuffs have been detoxified by a detoksifiseringsforetak approved in accordance with Article 10. 2 or 3 of Regulation (EC) no. 183/2005, or until they have been cleaned.

26)
Exceptions to the general labeling requirements should be possible to the extent that these requirements are not necessary to protect human or animal health or consumer interests and would represent an unreasonable burden for the producer or the feed business operator responsible for marking. On the basis of experience should such exceptions in particular the fodder delivered by a farmer to another for use on their farm, small amounts of feed, compound feed not containing more than three feed materials and for mixes of whole grains, seeds and fruit.

27)
As a general rule, compound feed sold in sealed containers, but it should set appropriate except to the extent that this requirement is not necessary to protect human or animal health or consumer interests, and it would constitute an unreasonable burden for feed business operator.

28)
Part B of the Annex to Directive 96/25 / EC and columns 2 to 4 of the Annex to Directive 82/471 / EEC contain lists of designations, descriptions and labeling provisions for certain feed materials. These lists will facilitate exchange of information on product properties between the producer and buyer. Past experiences with encouraging stakeholders to develop voluntary standards by means of Community guidelines in the field of feed hygiene, has been exclusively positive. It can be achieved greater flexibility and adaptation to users' information needs if the stakeholders, and not lawmakers, prepares more comprehensive lists. The stakeholders can decide how much work they will lay down depending on the value of a list of feed materials. It is therefore desirable to develop a non-exhaustive list of feed materials to be used by feed business operators on a voluntary basis, except as regards the use of the term for feedstuff.

29)
The current lists of feed materials listed in Part B of the Annex to Directive 96/25 / EC and columns 2 to 4 of the Annex to Directive 82/471 / EEC should constitute the initial version of fellesskapsfortegnelsen over conveys. This first version will then be supplemented at the initiative of the stakeholders in accordance with their interests, including by the addition of new feedstuffs.

30)
For reasons of transparency, it is appropriate to inform the representatives of stakeholders about a feedstuff that is not listed in the inventory as soon as this feedstuff placed on the market for the first time.

31)
Modern labeling promotes a competitive market environment in which dynamic, efficient, innovative enterprises can leverage labeling fully to sell their products. With regard to the relation to each other by the reaction of feed for livestock, and the connection between producer and buyer of petfood, the rules of good labeling for these two areas can be a useful means of achieving the objectives of modern labeling. The rules shall lay down provisions making it possible for the buyer to make choices on informed basis. They should also give the person responsible for the labeling, the necessary guidance in different elements of the labeling. They should also provide the labeling responsible guidance on the framework for voluntary labeling or the design of mandatory labeling. Use of those rules should be voluntary, except in cases where the use of the rules specified on the label.

32)
It is crucial that all parties concerned take part, to ensure that the list and the rules of marking high quality and relevant. To enhance users' right to correct information, it must take account of their interests. This can be ensured by the Commission approves the list and rules, provided that the content of them is feasible, and that they are appropriate to achieve the objectives of this Regulation.

33)
Member States should lay down penalties for infringements of the provisions of this Regulation and should take all measures necessary to ensure that they apply. Those penalties should be effective, proportionate and dissuasive.

34)

A transition period is needed, especially for feed that meet a particular nutritional purposes and for acceptable levels of chemical impurities from the manufacturing process and from technical auxiliaries. It should also be allowed to sell existing holdings until they are used up. Moreover, it may be appropriate to specify the conditions under which feed may be labeled in accordance with this Regulation before it enters into force.

35)
Since the objective of this Regulation, ie to harmonize the conditions of sale and use of feed, to ensure a high level of feed safety and thus a high level of protection for human health, and to provide sufficient information for users and consumers, and to ensure that the internal market functions effectively, can not be sufficiently achieved by the member States but be better achieved at community level, the community may adopt measures in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity referred to in Article 5. in accordance with the principle of proportionality set in that Article, this Regulation does not go beyond what is necessary to achieve those goals.

36)
The measures necessary to implement this Regulation should be adopted in accordance with Council Decision 1999/468 / EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred Kommisjonen.21

37)
Commission should be empowered to modify the list of feed materials whose use as animal feed is restricted or prohibited, to authorize feed intended for particular nutritional purposes, to establish a list of labeling categories of feed materials for animals not is for food production, except for fur animals, to adopt the amendment in the register and the determination of threshold values ​​for chemical impurities or levels of botanical purity or water content or information that replaces the mandatory tax return, to adapt the Annexes in light of scientific and technological development and to adopt transitional measures. As in the case of general measures which are designed to amend non-essential elements of this Regulation, including by supplementing them with new non-essential elements, they should be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny provided for in Article 5a of Decision 1999 / 468 / EC.

38)
For reasons of efficiency should the normal periods prescribed for progress with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny shortened with a view to the adoption of updates of the list of applications. In cases where the compelling reasons not possible to comply with the normal deadlines for progress with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny, the Commission should be able to apply the procedure for the treatment of urgent cases provided for in Article 5a. 6 of Decision 1999/468 / EC to adopt the changes in the list of feed materials whose turnover or use as animal feed is restricted or prohibited.

39)
In Article 16 of Regulation (EC) No. 1831/2003 lays down provisions on labeling and packaging of feed additives and premixes. Particular rules for premixes have proved to provide practical problems with implementation, the industry and the competent authorities. The article should be amended to ensure a more uniform labeling of premixes -

Whereas:

1)
In pursuance of Regulation (EC) No. 767/2009 must be made a complete revision of EU rules on the conditions applicable for the marketing of feed materials and compound feed, and pursuant to Regulation Article 32. 4 may stipulate measures to facilitate the transition to the new rules.

2)
The rules for the labeling of Regulation (EC) No. 767/2009 shall apply from 1 September 2010. This will involve a sudden change and prevent a smooth transition for enterprises that promote feed. To change the design and production of labels and the existing machines from one day to the other, will be expensive for these companies. The burden caused by this will not be proportionate to the purpose of the amendment. It should be before September 1st 2010 provide for a transitional period during which feed may be labeled in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 767/2009.

3)
Regarding prepared pet, the market consists of a large number of different items with specific labels. There is only Article 15 letter f), Article 17. 1 letter f) and Article 19 of Regulation (EC) No. 767/2009 which involves changes to the current rules on labeling of such products, and it's only about less changes without significance for safety. To enable a smooth transition for the affected feed business should provide for a transitional period of one year during which the current labels can still be used in feed for animals after 1 September 2010.

4)
measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health -

ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1
derogation from Article 33, second paragraph of Regulation (EC) No. 767/2009 and without prejudice to Council Directive 79/373 / EEC 1 82/471 / EEC, February 93/74 / EØF3 and 96/25 / EC, 4 can feed which is labeled in accordance with Regulation (EC) no. 767/2009, marketed as of the date this Regulation enters into force.

Article 2
derogation from Article 33, second paragraph of Regulation (EC) No. 767/2009 can feed intended for pets and marked in accordance with Directive 79/373 / EEC and Article 16 of Council Directive 70/524 / EEC, 1 marketed until 31 August 2011. Then they can remain on the market until stocks are exhausted.

Article 3
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following its publication in the Official Journal.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
