REGULATION (EEC) No 2351/72 OF THE COMMISSION

of 8 November 1972

supplementing Regulation (EEC) Nos 100/72 and 1574/72 as regards the denaturing process for sugar

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community;

Having regard to Council Regulation No 1009/67/EEC (1) of 18 December 1967 on the common organisation of the market in sugar, as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 607/72, (2) and in particular Article 9 (8) thereof;

Whereas experience has shown that the description of the denaturing process for sugar contained in Commission Regulation (EEC) No 100/72 (3) of 14 January 1972 laying down detailed rules on the denaturing of sugar for animal feed and in Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1574/72 (4) of 24 July 1972 fixing the denaturing premium for sugar intended for animal feed is not sufficiently precise to ensure that sugar denatured in this way can be used only for animal feed and for the intended purpose; whereas these Regulations should therefore be supplemented accordingly without, however, altering the process in question;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the Opinion of the Management Committee for sugar;

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1
