They comprise:

(a)‘processed cereal-based foods’ which are divided into the following four categories:

(i)

simple cereals which are or have to be reconstituted with milk or other appropriate nutritious liquids;

(ii)

cereals with an added high protein food which are or have to be reconstituted with water or other protein-free liquid;

(iii)

pastas which are to be used after cooking in boiling water or other appropriate liquids;

(iv)

rusks and biscuits which are to be used either directly or, after pulverisation, with the addition of water, milk or other suitable liquids;

(b)‘baby foods’ other than processed cereal-based foods.

3.This Directive does not apply to milks intended for young children.

Article 2U.K.

For the purpose of this Directive, the following definitions shall apply:

(a)

‘infants’ means children under the age of 12 months;

(c)

‘pesticide residue’ means the residue in processed cereal-based foods and baby foods of a plant protection product, as defined in point 1 of Article 2 of Directive 91/414/EEC, including its metabolites and products resulting from its degradation or reaction.

Article 3U.K.

Member States shall ensure that the products referred to in Article 1(2) are marketed within the Community only if they conform to the rules laid down in this Directive.

Article 4U.K.

Processed cereal-based foods and baby foods shall be manufactured from ingredients whose suitability for particular nutritional use by infants and young children has been established by generally accepted scientific data.

Article 5U.K.

1.Processed cereal-based foods shall comply with the compositional criteria specified in Annex I.

2.Baby foods which are described in Annex II shall comply with the compositional criteria specified therein.

Article 6U.K.

Only the nutritional substances listed in Annex IV may be added in the manufacture of processed cereal-based foods and baby foods.

The purity criteria for those substances shall be laid down at a later stage.

Article 7U.K.

2.Processed cereal-based foods and baby foods shall not contain residues of individual pesticides at levels exceeding 0,01 mg/kg, except for those substances for which specific levels have been set in Annex VI, in which case these specific levels shall apply.

Analytical methods for determining the levels of pesticide residues shall be generally acceptable standardised methods.

3.The pesticides listed in Annex VII shall not be used in agricultural products intended for the production of processed cereal-based foods and baby foods.

However, for the purpose of control:

(a)pesticides listed in Table 1 of Annex VII are considered not to have been used if their residues do not exceed a level of 0,003 mg/kg. This level, which is considered to be the limit of quantification of the analytical methods, shall be kept under regular review in the light of technical progress;

(b)pesticides listed in Table 2 of Annex VII are considered not to have been used if their residues do not exceed a level of 0,003 mg/kg. This level shall be kept under regular review in the light of data on environmental contamination.

4.The levels referred to in paragraphs 2 and 3 shall apply to the products as proposed ready for consumption or as reconstituted according to the instructions of the manufacturers.

5.For pesticides listed in Annex VI, where a decision concerning the non-inclusion of an active substance in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC is taken, Annex VI and Annex VII to this Directive shall be amended accordingly.

6.Microbiological criteria shall be established as necessary.
