Commission Regulation amending Commission Regulation (EU) No. 10/2011 on plastic materials and articles intended to come into contact with food.

The proposed Commission Regulation would amend Commission Regulation (EU) No. 10/2011 on plastic materials and articles intended to come into contact with food.

This amendment authorizes two new substances, extends the authorized use of a previously authorized substance, and decreases the specific migration limits for a previously authorized substance on the basis of new evidence, for materials intended to be in contact with foods.
