Proposal for a regulation
Recital 19
(19) In certain areas where the producer is not obliged to label particulars, the customer should have the possibility to request additional information. Nonetheless, the indication of the feed materials incorporated in compound feed in descending order of weight, already provides important information on compositional data. Taking into account the recent developments in Community legislation which give higher guarantees as regards in particular HACCP, traceability, strict hygiene rules and the development of Community guides to good practice for hygiene, the manufacturer should be allowed to reject the request if he considers the requested disclosure to infringe his intellectual property rights. This would not affect the food and feed safety, since the competent authorities always have the right to get the exact percentages of all feed materials.
