  "text": "The following amendment to the specification for the protected geographical indication ‘Rogal świętomarciński’ has been approved:\nThe lower limit of the weight range for ‘rogal świętomarciński’ is being reduced to 150 g, and the product’s weight will therefore be 150-250 g.\nThe proposed amendment is dictated by changes in the behaviour of consumers, who for some time have been calling for a croissant that weighs less. Eating habits have changed and, owing to its current size, the ‘rogal świętomarciński’ is considered too large as a portion of confectionery, especially as it is now baked and consumed throughout the year, and not only on Saint Martin’s day. Reducing the lower weight limit will boost demand and hence broaden the range of consumers, and this should also help to disseminate information about the PGI scheme.\nReducing the weight of the product will in no way affect the specific features of the ‘rogal świętomarciński’ as defined in point 5.2 of the Single Document, or its taste.\nThis amendment also means that it is necessary to delete the following sentence relating to the dimensions of the croissant from point 3.2 of the Single Document: ‘(It …) fits within a square of approximately 14x14 cm, with a height at its thickest point of approximately 7 cm and a width of approximately 10 cm’. This is a consequence of the change in the permitted weight of the product, and there is no justification for maintaining the dimensions indicated in this case. Nor is there any point in indicating other dimensions, as they would be difficult to specify in view of such a wide range of weights. This is partly due to the baking process, since the craftsmen bakers have no influence over the extent to which the dough increases in volume. It should be pointed out that the deletion of requirements relating to the product’s dimensions will in no way affect its specific shape, which must be maintained regardless of its weight.",
