COUNCIL DIRECTIVE of 20 July 1970 on the introduction of Community methods of sampling and analysis for the official control of feeding-stuffs (70/373/EEC)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Articles 43 and 100 thereof;
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission;
Having regard to the Opinion of the European Parliament;
Having regard to the Opinion of the Economic and Social Committee;
Whereas the production, marketing and use of feeding-stuffs occupy an extremely important place in the European Economic Community;
Whereas animal production in agriculture depends to a large extent on the use of appropriate good quality feeding-stuffs;
Whereas the existence of rules concerning feeding-stuffs is essential to an increase in agricultural productivity;
Whereas the introduction of Community measures concerning the quality and composition of feeding-stuffs used in the European Economic Community makes it necessary to establish uniform methods of sampling and analysis to be used by the authorities of the Member States for carrying out official controls;
Whereas, furthermore, the methods of sampling and analysis used for checking compliance with those national standards remaining in force must be the same throughout the Community;
Whereas certain Member States are already applying official methods of sampling and analysis and these differ to some extent as regards their basic principles ; whereas these methods directly affect the establishment and functioning of the common market and should therefore be harmonised;
Whereas the establishment of uniform methods is purely an implementing measure of a technical and scientific nature ; whereas a rapid procedure is needed to develop, improve and amplify those methods ; whereas, in order to facilitate the adoption of these measures, a procedure should be provided for establishing close co-operation between Member States and the Commission within a Standing Committee for Feeding-stuffs;
