    Designation and specification of the products:

    1. (1)

      foods and food ingredients containing, consisting of, or produced from MON-ØØ6Ø3-6 × ACS-ZMØØ3-2 maize;

    2. (2)

      feed containing, consisting of, or produced from MON-ØØ6Ø3-6 × ACS-ZMØØ3-2 maize;

    3. (3)

      MON-ØØ6Ø3-6 × ACS-ZMØØ3-2 maize in products containing it or consisting of it for any other use than those provided in points (1) and (2), with the exception of cultivation.

    The genetically modified MON-ØØ6Ø3-6 × ACS-ZMØØ3-2 maize, as described in the application, expresses the CP4 EPSPS protein which confers tolerance to glyphosate herbicides and PAT protein which confers tolerance to glufosinate ammonium herbicides.

  • (c)

    Labelling:

    1. (1)

      For the purposes of the labelling requirements laid down in Articles 13(1) and 25(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003, and in Article 4(6) of Regulation (EC) No 1830/2003, the ‘name of the organism’ shall be ‘maize’;

    2. (2)

      The words ‘not for cultivation’ shall appear on the label of and in the accompanying documents of the products containing or consisting of MON-ØØ6Ø3-6 × ACS-ZMØØ3-2 maize with the exception of products referred to in point (a) of Article 2.

  • (d)

    Method for detection:

    1. (1)

      Event-specific real-time quantitative PCR-based methods for MON-ØØ6Ø3-6 and ACS-ZMØØ3-2 maize; the detection methods are validated on the single-trait events and verified on genomic DNA extracted from seeds of MON-ØØ6Ø3-6 × ACS-ZMØØ3-2 maize;
