(ii)taking into account any such enzyme which is naturally present, the content of the enzyme is not less than the minimum (if any) specified in column 6 of that Part, and does not exceed the maximum (if any) specified in column 7 of that Part; and
(iii)the material is to be used in accordance with the conditions (if any) laid down in column 8 of that Part.
12. Unless otherwise stated, any maximum or minimum specified in the Table for the content of any additive in any feeding stuff is so specified by reference to a complete feeding stuff with a moisture content of 12%.
