Extraction solvents used in the production of foodstuffs and food ingredients (3rd amend. Directive 88/344/EEC)

In the light of the opinion expressed by the European Parliament, the Commission has amended its proposal by introducing a new recital. This recital refers to the specific use of the new proposed solvent, to its minimum residues in foodstuffs (0.02 mg/kg) and to the fact that under the conditions provided for there is no impact on global warming. �
