"The aim of this legislative proposal is to amend Council Directive 2001/112/EC by incorporating more of the provisions of the Codex Alimentarius standard. The Parliament’s draft report suggests that the rules arising from adaptation of the directive to the Codex should be equally applicable to all products marketed within the EU, regardless of whether they are produced in the EU or imported.
The Commission and the Member States shall carry out information campaigns to inform consumers of the different categories of juices and similar products. Concerning the issue of flavour reconstitution, I support the Commission’s proposal that it should remain optional. The report suggests limiting the Commission’s powers to adopt the delegated acts from ‘an indeterminate period of time’ to five years with the possibility of proceeding to a tacit renewal. Moreover, an 18-month transition period added to the transposition period would serve to use up stock manufactured according to old standards and to adapt to new rules.
Adapting the directive to the Codex Alimentarius standard will allow the same criteria to be applied to products manufactured in the EU and to imported products. Consequently, consumers will no longer be confused on the safety and quality of juices."@en1
