                            14 OCTOBER 2004

[2.4] inserting in the Editorial note after subclause 18(2) –

Total dietary fibre as determined by Section 985.29, or Section 991.43 of the AOAC, 17th Edition (2000) may include resistant maltodextrins. However, these methods cannot fully determine resistant maltodextrins as total dietary fibre, and should not be used for this purpose. Section 2001.03 of the AOAC, 17th Edition, 1st Revision (2002) is an accurate method for determining resistant maltodextrins as dietary fibre, and should be used to ascertain total dietary fibre content where full analysis of resistant maltodextrins is required.

Added resistant maltodextrins must comply with Standard 1.3.4 – Identity and Purity

[3] Standard 1.3.4 is varied by inserting in the Schedule –
