Recital 8
Recital 8
(8) Contaminants in CE marked fertilising products, such as cadmium, can potentially pose a risk to human and animal health and the environment as they accumulate in the environment and enter the food chain. Their content should therefore be limited in such products. Furthermore, impurities in CE marked fertilising products derived from bio-waste, in particular polymers but also metal and glass, should be either prevented or limited to the extent technically feasible by detection of such impurities in separately collected bio-waste before processing.

Recital 8 a (new)
Recital 8 a (new)
(8a) Member states which already have more stringent national limit values for cadmium in fertilisers shall be allowed to maintain these limit values during a phase-in period, until the rest of the Union reaches an equivalent level of ambition. It would be illogical and counterproductive to force these more ambitious Member States to allow limits values for cadmium to rise above their present levels, even for a shorter period.

Article 42 – paragraph 1 – introductory part
1. The Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 43 to amend Annex I, Part I and Annexes II to IV for the purposes of adapting them to technical progress and facilitating internal market access and free movement for CE marked fertilising products

Article 42 – paragraph 4
4. The Commission shall also be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 43 to amend Annex I, Part I and Annexes II to IV in the light of new scientific evidence. The Commission shall use this empowerment where, based on a risk assessment, an amendment proves necessary to ensure that any CE marked fertilising product complying with the requirements of this Regulation does not, under normal conditions of use, present an unacceptable risk to human, animal, or plant health, to safety or to the environment.

4a.

Proposal for a regulation
Article 48 – paragraph 1 a (new)
Article 48 – paragraph 1 a (new)
A Member State may maintain more stringent existing restrictions on the content of cadmium (Cd) in organo- mineral fertiliser and inorganic fertiliser, until the limit set out in Annex I, Part II, PFC 1 (B)(3)(a) and 1 (C)(I)(2)(a) is lower than or equal to this existing limit.
