Nominal quantities for prepacked products

The Commission supports the common position, subject to the joint Council/Commission declarations mentioned below:

- according to the Treaty and the jurisprudence of the Court of Justice, Member States applying the phasing-out may not refuse, prohibit or restrict the placing on the market of products legally marketed in another Member State on grounds relating to the nominal quantities of the package;

- Member States, that currently do not apply national sizes in the sectors to which the phaseout applies, will not introduce new rules for nominal quantities of packages.
