Salt or chemicals should not be used at a level higher than is necessary to achieve the preservation of the products having regard to commonly used production methods for products of subheadings 0408 11 and 0408 19. In principle, an amount of salt of up to 12 % by weight or minor amounts of other preservation agents do not change the character of egg yolks and can be accepted under subheadings 0408 11 and 0408 19.\n(4)\nA new Additional note should therefore be added in Chapter 4 of Part Two of the Combined Nomenclature to ensure its uniform interpretation throughout the Union.\n(5)\nAnnex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 should therefore be amended accordingly.\n(6)\nThe measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
