THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 2232/96 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 28 October 1996 laying down a Community procedure for flavouring substances used or intended for use in or on foodstuffs (1), and in particular Article 3(2) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Pursuant to Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2232/96, the Commission through Decision 1999/217/EC (2) adopted a register of flavouring substances used in or on foodstuffs.

(2) It is necessary, in order to proceed with their evaluation, to integrate a number of substances that have not yet been entered in the above register, and to amend a number of entries in the light of new findings.

(3) For a number of substances, in application of Commis- sion Recommendation 98/282/EC of 21 April 1998 on the ways in which the Member States and signatory States to the European Economic Area should protect intellectual property in connection with the develop- ment and manufacture of flavouring substances referred to in Regulation (EC) No 2232/96 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3), the notifying Member

State has indicated that they do not require protection and can therefore be moved to the open parts of the Register.

(4) Decision 1999/217/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.

(5) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee for Foodstuffs,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

Decision 1999/217/EC is hereby amended as shown in the Annex to this Decision.
