BAKGRUNN (fra kommisjonsforordningen)
(1) Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1334/2008 lays down a Union list of flavourings and source materials approved for use in and on foods and their conditions of use.
(2) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 872/20123 adopted the list of flavouring substances and introduced that list in Annex I, Part A, to Regulation (EC) No 1334/2008.
(3) That list may be updated in accordance with the common procedure referred to in Article 3(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1331/2008, either on the initiative of the Commission or following an application submitted by a Member State or by an interested party.
(4) On 15 January 2019, an application was submitted to the Commission for the authorisation of (E)‐3‐benzo[1,3]dioxol‐5‐yl‐N,N‐diphenyl‐2‐propenamide, (FL No. 16.135), as a flavouring substance to be used in various foods falling under a number of food categories referred to in the Union list of flavourings and source materials. The application was notified to the European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) for its opinion. The Commission also made the application available to the Member States pursuant to Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1331/2008.
(5) In its opinion adopted on 18 May 2022, the Authority evaluated the safety of the substance FL No. 16.135 when used as a flavouring substance and concluded that there is no safety concern at the estimated level of dietary exposure calculated using the added portions exposure technique based on the intended uses and use levels. The Authority further concluded that the combined exposure to FL No. 16.135 from its use as a food flavouring substance and from its presence in toothpaste is also not of safety concern.
(6) In light of the opinion of the Authority, since the use of the substance FL No 16.135 as a flavouring substance does not give rise to safety concerns with the specified conditions of use and it is not expected to mislead the consumer, it is appropriate to authorise such use.
(7) Annex I, Part A, to Regulation (EC) No 1334/2008 should therefore be amended accordingly to include (E)‐3‐benzo[1,3]dioxol‐5‐yl‐N,N‐diphenyl‐2‐propenamide in the Union list of flavourings. (8) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,
