"The proposed amendments to Council Directive 2001/112/EC adapting methods of fruit juice production to technical progress exclude sugars from the list of ingredients permitted for use in fruit juices, set out provisions on flavours, and also provide clear definitions of finished products and the raw materials and semi-finished products used in their manufacture. It is important that the amendments to the Fruit Juice Directive should be concerned with health benefits and, above all, regulate the matter of the addition of sweeteners to fruit juice, and that clear labelling of products should make it easier for consumers to distinguish between juice and nectar (for example, as regards the terminology used for blends of juice from two or more fruits). Domestic fruit producers should also be kept in mind. The entry into force of these amendments to the directive will help to improve the quality of fruit juices and nectars which remain on the national market and help harmonise their labelling. The amendments will also enable a harmonisation of quality standards for fruit juices and nectars, which will help improve product quality."@en1
