Whereas a number of adjustments to the special provisions laid down in respect of certain straight feedingstuffs are required, in particular as regards their names, description and composition requirements; whereas the list of mineral substances must also be supplemented;

Whereas, moreover, it appears necessary to indicate for certain feedingstuffs of animal origin which have been defatted that the product must be technically free of organic solvents; whereas it should be considered whether this requirement should be extended to other feeds of animal or vegetable origin and whether it is appropriate to set residue limits for the said organic solvents;
