Evaluation Program
Prologue to the Evaluation Program of Flavouring Substances
Regulation (EC) N° 2232/96 of the European Parliament and of the Council lays down a Community procedure for flavouring substances used or intended for use in or on foodstuffs.It also lays down a procedure for the establishment of an EU-wide list of flavouring substances (previously referred to as the Community List).
As a first step, the procedure foresees the establishment of a register of the substances used in Member States. Commission Decision 1999/217 of 23 February 1999 established the register, which has been amended several times. The register contains over 2.600 substances.
Following the establishment of this register, Commission Regulation (EC) N° 1565/2000 of 18 July 2000, stipulated the measures necessary for the adoption of the evaluation program in application of Regulation (EC) No 2232/96.
