Article 1The substance specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category "nutritional additives" and to the functional group "compounds of trace elements", is authorised as an additive in animal nutrition, subject to the conditions laid down in that Annex.
Article 2This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.ANNEX
