# Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 793/2012 of 5 September 2012 adopting the list of flavouring substances provided for by Regulation (EC) No 2232/96 of the European Parliament and of the Council, introducing it in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1334/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Commission Regulation (EC) No 1565/2000 and Commission Decision 1999/217/EC (Text with EEA relevance), Article 9: Provisions for foods for infants and young children

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

Member States may apply national provisions which are more restrictive than Part A of the Union list as regards the use of flavouring substances in infant formulae, follow-on formulae, processed cereal-based foods and baby foods and dietary foods for special medical purposes intended for infants and young children as referred to in Directive 2009/39/EC. Those national measures must be essential to ensure that consumers are adequately protected and must be proportionate to the attainment of that objective.
