HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION: Article 1 The register of flavouring substances annexed to this Decision is hereby adopted. Article 2 This Decision is addressed to the Member States. (1) OJ L 299, 23.11.1996, p. 1. 1999D0217 — EN — 27.02.2009 — 007.001 — 3 ▼M2 Register of flavouring substances notified by the Member States pursuant to Article 3(1) of Regulation (EC) No 2232/96 of the European Parliament and the Council of 28 October 1996 laying down a Community procedure for flavouring substances used or intended for use in or on foodstuffs ▼M7 __________ ▼M2 In part A, CAS (1), Einecs (2), CoE (3) and FEMA (4) numbers are indicated, where available. A number in the column ‘comments’ refers to one of the following remarks: 1. Substance which, apart from its flavouring properties, is used for other purposes on or in foodstuffs, and, therefore, may be subject to additional legal provisions. 2. Substance the use of which is subject to restrictive or prohibitive measures in certain Member States. 3. Substance to be given priority in the evaluation programme laid down in Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000. 4. Substance on which additional information is to be submitted. 5. Name, synonyms, systematic names, CAS, Einecs, CoE or FEMA number might contain inconsistencies. ▼M3 6. Substance which may not be used in and on food, unless lawfully placed on the market in the Member State(s) concerned. ▼M2 A specific question raised concerned the treatment of salts and other derived compounds from a ‘generic’ substance. Certain substances had been notified with a high degree of precision. Other substances are lacking this detailed iden- tification. On a number of acids or bases, no specific guidance is given on the actual covering of their derived salts. It is provisionally presumed, but only for the purpose of this register, that ammonium, sodium, potassium and calcium salts, as well as chlorides, carbonates and sulphates, are covered by the ‘generic’ substance, providing they have flavouring properties. However, final acceptance will depend of the results of the evaluation, which in these cases should verify carefully the accuracy of such assimilation. (1) Chemical Abstracts Service.
