COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 1049/2012
of 8 November 2012
amending Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the use of polyglycitol syrup in several food categories
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 2008 on food additives (1), and in particular Article 10(3) and Article 30(5) thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 lays down a Union list of food additives approved for use in foods and their conditions of use. |
|
(2) |
That list may be amended in accordance with the procedure referred to in Regulation (EC) No 1331/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 2008 establishing a common authorisation procedure for food additives, food enzymes and food flavourings (2). |
|
(3) |
Pursuant to Article 3(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1331/2008, the Union list of food additives may be updated either on the initiative of the Commission or following an application. |
|
(4) |
An application for authorisation of the use of polyglycitol syrup in several food categories was submitted and was made available to the Member States. |
|
(5) |
The European Food Safety Authority evaluated the safety of polyglycitol syrup when used as a food additive (3). It considers that the chemical and toxicological data available for polyglycitol syrup are insufficient to establish an acceptable daily intake. However, it concludes, on the basis of the available data, that there are no indications of a safety concern for the proposed uses and use levels. |
|
(6) |
There is a technological need for the use of polyglycitol syrup as an alternative polyol for the other already authorised polyols. Polyglycitol syrup is less sweet and provides more bulk, opacity, binding and stability in energy-reduced or sugar-free products. It is therefore appropriate to authorise the use of polyglycitol syrup in the food categories applied for and to assign E 964 as E-number to that food additive. |
|
(7) |
Pursuant to the transitional provisions of Commission Regulation (EU) No 1129/2011 of 11 November 2011 amending Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council by establishing a Union list of food additives (4), Annex II establishing the Union list of food additives approved for use in foods and conditions of use applies from 1 June 2013. In order to allow the use of polyglycitol syrup in the food categories concerned before that date, it is necessary to specify an earlier date of application with regard to that food additive. |
|
(8) |
Therefore, Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 should be amended accordingly. |
|
(9) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health and neither the European Parliament nor the Council has opposed them, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 8 November 2012.
