  THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

  Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

  Having regard to Council Directive 89/107/EEC of 21 December 1988 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States concerning food additives authorized for use in foodstuffs intended for human consumption [1], and in particular Article 3(3)(a) thereof,

  Whereas:

  (1) Commission Directive 95/31/EC of 5 July 1995 laying down specific criteria of purity concerning sweeteners for use in foodstuffs [2] has been substantially amended several times [3]. In the interest of clarity and rationality the said Directive should be codified.

  (2) It is necessary to establish purity criteria for all sweeteners mentioned in European Parliament and Council Directive 94/35/EC of 30 June 1994 on sweeteners for use in foodstuffs [4].

  (3) It is necessary to take into account the specifications and analytical techniques for sweeteners as set out in the Codex Alimentarius as drafted by the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA).

  (4) Food additives prepared by production methods or starting materials significantly different from those evaluated by the Scientific Committee for Food or different from those mentioned in this Directive should be submitted for safety evaluation by the European Food Safety Authority with emphasis on the purity criteria.

  (5) The measures provided for in this Directive are in line with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health.

  (6) This Directive should be without prejudice to the obligations of the Member States relating to the time-limits for transposition into national law of the Directives set out in Annex II, Part B,

  HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

  Article 1

  The purity criteria referred to in Article 3(3)(a) of Directive 89/107/EEC for sweeteners mentioned in Directive 94/35/EC are set out in Annex I to this Directive.

  Directive 95/31/EC, as amended by the Directives listed in Annex II, Part A, is repealed, without prejudice to the obligations of the Member States relating to the time-limits for transposition into national law of the Directives set out in Annex II, Part B.

  References to the repealed Directive shall be construed as references to this Directive and shall be read in accordance with the correlation table in Annex III.

  Article 3

  This Directive shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

  Article 4

  This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

  Done at Brussels, 17 June 2008.
