United Kingdom
Annex I to Directive 2002/32/EC is amended as follows:
- 1..
Row 2, lead, is replaced by the following:
Maximum levels refer to an analytical determination of lead, whereby extraction is performed in nitric acid (5 % w/w) for 30 minutes at boiling temperature. Equivalent extraction procedures can be applied for which it can be demonstrated that the used extraction procedure has an equal extraction efficiency.
Green fodder includes products intended for animal feed such as hay, silage, fresh grass, etc.
The levels shall be reviewed by 31 December 2007 with the aim of reducing the maximum levels.’
Undesirable substances Products intended for animal feed Maximum content in mg/kg (ppm) relative to a feedingstuff with a moisture content of 12 % (1) (2) (3) ‘2.

Row 3, Fluorine, is replaced by the following:
Maximum levels refer to an analytical determination of fluorine, whereby extraction is performed with hydrochloric acid 1 N for 20 minutes at ambient temperature. Equivalent extraction procedures can be applied for which it can be demonstrated that the used extraction procedure has an equal extraction efficiency.
The levels shall be reviewed by 31 December 2007 with the aim of reducing the maximum levels.’
