SCHEDULE 3COLOURING AGENTS

Regulation 6(4)

In this Schedule the colouring agents referred to in regulation 6(4)(a) are–

(i)

those identified either by name or by colour index number (the colour index numbers being those specified in the third edition of The Colour Index published in 1971 by the Society of Dyers and Colourists);

(ii)

lakes or salts of these colouring agents which do not use substances prohibited under Annex II or which are excluded under Annex V from the scope of the Cosmetics Directive (76/768/EEC).

In the case of colouring agents identified by the addition of (*) to the name or colour index number, the insoluble barium, strontium and zirconium lakes, salts and pigments of these colouring agents shall also be permitted. They must pass the test for insolubility which will be determined by the procedure laid down in Article 8 of the Directive.

Colouring agents whose number is preceded by the letter `E' in accordance with the EEC Directive of 23 October 1962 on the approximation of the rules of Member States concerning foodstuffs and colouring matters5, as amended,6 and adapted7 must fulfil the purity requirements laid down in those Directives. They continue to be subject to the general criteria set out in Annex III to the 1962 Directive concerning colouring matters where the letter `E' has been deleted therefrom.
