The Board of the Eurasian Economic Commission updated the list of standards to the technical regulations "On Safety of Certain Types of Specialized Food Products, Including Dietary Therapeutic and Dietary Preventive Nutrition" (TR CU 027/2012), "Safety Requirements for Food Additives, Flavorings and Auxiliary Substances" (TR CU 029/2012) and "On Safety of Packaged Drinking Water, Including Natural Mineral Water" (TR EAEU 044/2017).
The lists include interstate standards developed by the Member States of the Eurasian Economic Union in accordance with the programs to these regulations.
In particular, six interstate standards for research methods were added to TR CU 027/2012, while the same number (no longer relevant) were excluded. The list of voluntary applied standards and the list of standards for research methods to TR CU 029/2012 was supplemented with three new documents, one was excluded. One standard was added to the list of standards for research methods to TR EAEU 044/2017, two documents were excluded, and the period of application of another standard was limited.
Such changes, according to the Procedure for developing lists of standards, are introduced without public discussion and without consideration at a meeting of the relevant Advisory Committee, on the basis of proposals from the authorized standardization authorities, provided that all countries of the Eurasian Economic Union accede to such standards.
The amendments adopted by the EEC Board will come into effect after 180 calendar days have elapsed from the date of official publication of the relevant Commission's decisions.
