إجراء مقترح من أوكرانيا: الأغذية

The draft Order establishes mandatory requirements for the composition and characteristics of food for special medical purposes in line with relevant European Union legislation, including Regulation (EU) No 609/2013 and Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/128. The draft Requirements classify food for special medical purposes into three categories: nutritionally complete food with a standard nutrient formulation; nutritionally complete food with a nutrient-adapted formulation specific to a disease, disorder or medical condition; and nutritionally incomplete food with a standard or nutrient-adapted formulation, which is not suitable for use as the sole source of nourishment. The draft Requirements specify the substances that may be used in the manufacture of food for special medical purposes and establish minimum and maximum levels of vitamins and minerals for products intended for infants and for products intended for population groups other than infants. They also establish requirements concerning food information, labelling, presentation and advertising. The draft Order is also being notified under the SPS Agreement.
