Abstract: This Regulation lays down some amendments to Regulation (EEC) No. 2568/91 on the characteristics of olive oil and olive-residue oil and on the relevant methods of analysis. Firstly it amends the definition of olive oil marketed, which in the new provision means total quantity of olive oil and olive pomace oil of a relevant Member State that is consumed in that Member State or exported from that Member State. Further the Regulation inserts a new provision which stipulates that natural or legal persons and groups of persons who hold olive oil and olive pomace oil from the extraction at the mill up to the bottling stage included, for whatever professional or commercial purposes, shall be required to keep entry and withdrawal registers for each category of such oils.
