12 May 2006 - Norway used to regulate colourings, sweeteners and nitrite/nitrate different than the EC countries. In 2001 Norway implemented the EC Directives on food additives, and today there is no difference between the food additives legislation in Norway and the EC Member States. Why did Norway implement the EC legislation on food additives? Norway became a member of the European Economic Area
in 1995. The EEA agreement is between the EFTA countries (Norway,
Iceland and Liechtenstein) and the countries of the Europan Community .
As a part of that agreement, Norway may participate in EC meetings
where the legislation is developed (not in the Council and the
Parliament). Further on, Norway is committed to implement the EC
legislation that is developed in those meetings.
Other EC Countries have adopted a similar stance. All countries that belong to the European Community have adopted the uniform Food Additive numbering system and follow the EC directive. This means that there is a uniform Codex Alimentarius that applies to these countries. http://www.flex-news-food.com/pages/2926/Additive/Norway/Sweetener/n orway-food-additives.html EC Member States. http://europa.eu/abc/european_countries/eu_members/index_en.htm http://www.admin.ch/ch/d/sr/817_022_31/index.html http://www.heko.ch/toxin/ |
