Summary:	1. These Regulations, which apply in relation to Wales, implement Commission Directive 2006/33/EC amending Directive 95/45/EC as regards sunset yellow FCF (E110) and titanium dioxide (E171) (OJ No. L82, 21.3.2006, p.10). 2.

Commission Directive 2006/33/EC amends Commission Directive 95/45/EC by substituting revised purity criteria for the colours sunset yellow FCF (E110) and titanium dioxide (E171). 4. A full Regulatory Appraisal has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
