Explanatory Note

3.  They also provide for the enforcement of Commission Regulation (EC) No. 871/2003 permanently authorising a new additive manganomanganic oxide in feedingstuffs (OJ No. L125, 21.5.2003, p.3) and Commission Regulation (EC) No. 877/2003 provisionally authorising the use of the acidity regulator “Benzoic acid” in feedingstuffs (OJ No. L126, 22.5.2003, p.24) (regulation 2(3)).
