Where the limit prescribed for a food additive in the Codex standard is stated to be “Good Manufacturing Practice”, the amount of the food additive added to a food in the manufacturing and processing shall not exceed the amount required to accomplish the purpose for which that additive is required in that food. The Regulations set rules on labelling regarding food additives.
