  "legislation_title": "Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 973/2013 of 10 October 2013 approving a minor amendment to the specification for a name entered in the register of protected designations of origin and protected geographical indications (Nürnberger Bratwürste/Nürnberger Rostbratwürste (PGI))",

  "heading": "The need for the amendment has arisen as a result of the new rules relating to the labelling of the ingredients of foodstuffs (Quantitative Ingredient Declaration – QUID) introduced by Commission Directive 2001/101/EC of 26 November 2001 amending the Labelling Directive, Directive 2000/13/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council. Annex I to the Labelling Directive now stipulates that an ingredient may be described as ‘…-meat’ only if it does not exceed a specified fat and connective tissue content. For pigmeat, fat content may not exceed 30 % and connective tissue content 25 %. An ingredient which exceeds this limit value must be described as ‘fatty meat’ for example.",
  "text": "The recipe for ‘Nürnberger Bratwürste/‘Nürnberger Rostbratwürste’ allows a fat content of more than 30 %. The specification provided only for ‘roughly defatted pigmeat’. In accordance with the QUID requirement, the higher fat content must now be indicated on packaging in accordance with Section 3(1), No 3 of the Foodstuffs Labelling Order (Lebensmittel-Kennzeichnungsverordnung (LMKV)). This amendment to the LMKV in line with the Directive has not been included in the ‘Nürnberger Bratwürste’/‘Nürnberger Rostbratwürste’ recipe or specification to date. The recipe and the specification must therefore be amended to bring the product into line with the new labelling requirements.\nThe Association for the protection of ‘Nürnberger Bratwürste’ (Schutzverband Nürnberger Bratwürste) agreed to review the recipe and launch the specification amendment procedure in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1257/2003 (ref. DPMA 398 99 002.6) on 28 September 2006.",
