SCHEDULE 9
Schedule 1, paragraphs 9 and 18(1)(e)

The energy value of compound poultry, ruminant and pig feeds and feeding stuffs intended for particular nutritional purposes for cats and dogs shall be calculated inaccordance with the formulae set out below on the basis of the percentages of certain analytical components of the feed or food. After application of these formulae, the results shall be given to one decimal place.
Poultry feeds: megajoules (MJ) of metabolisable energy (ME), nitrogen corrected, per kilogramof compound feed.
MJ of ME/kg of feed = 0.1551 × % protein + 0.3431 × %oil + 0.1669 × % starch + 0.1301 × % total sugar (expressed as sucrose).
Ruminant feeds: megajoules (MJ) of metabolisable energy (ME) per kilogram of dry matter in the compound feed.
MJ of ME/kg of dry matter = 0.14 × % Neutral detergent Cellulase plus Gamanase Digestibility + 0.25 × % oil.
Pig feeds: megajoules (MJ) of digestible energy (DE) per kilogram of dry matter in the compoundfeed.
MJ of DE/kg of dry matter = 17.47 + 0.079 × % protein + 0.158 × % oil − 0.331 × % ash − 0.140 Neutral Detergent plus Amylase Fibre.
Feeding stuffs intended for particular nutritional purposes for cats and dogs: megajoules (MJ) of metabolisable energy (ME) per kilogram of compound dog or cat food.
(a) cat and dog foods with the exception of cat foods having a moisture content exceeding 14%:
 MJ of ME/kg of food = 0.1464 × protein + 0.3556 × % oils and fats + 0.1464 × % nitrogen-free extract;
(b) cat foods having a moisture content exceeding 14%:
 MJ of ME/kg of cat food = (0.1632 × % protein + 0.3222 × % oils and fats + 0.1255 × % nitrogen-free extract) − 0.2092;where in either case the percentage of nitrogen-free extract is calculated by subtracting from 100 the total of the percentages of moisture, ash, protein oils and fats and fibre.
N.B Where the results of analysis are to be given on a dry matter basis, this may be achieved by analysing either the dried material, or fresh material and correcting for themoisture content.

CHAPTER B
1 
Where there is more than one group of nutritional characteristics indicated in column 2 of Chapter A, denoted by “and/or”, for the same nutritional purpose, the feeding stuff may have either or both groups in order to fulfil the nutritional purpose specified in column 1. For each group the corresponding labelling declarations are given opposite in column 4.
2 
Where a group of additives is mentioned in column 2 or column 4 of Chapter A, the additive(s) used must be authorised in Council Directive 70/524/EEC as corresponding to the specified essential characteristic.
3 
Where the source(s) of ingredients or of analytical constituents is (are) required in column 4 of Chapter A the manufacturer must make a specific declaration (i.e. specific name of the ingredient(s), animal species or part of the animal) allowing the evaluation of conformity of the feeding stuff with the corresponding essential nutritional characteristics.
4 
Where the declaration of a substance, also authorised as an additive, is required by column 4 of Chapter A and is accompanied by the expression “total”, the declared content must refer to, as appropriate, the quantity naturally present where none is added or, by derogation from Directive 70/524/EEC, the total quantity of the substances naturally present and the amount added as an additive.
5 
The declarations specified in column 4 of Chapter A which include the words “if added” are required where the ingredient or the additive has been incorporated or its content increased specifically to enable the achievement of the particular nutritional purpose.
6 
The declarations to be given in accordance with column 4 of Chapter A concerning analytical constituents and additives must be expressed in quantitative terms.
7 
The recommended period of use indicated in column 5 of Chapter A indicates a range within which the nutritional purpose should normally be achieved. Manufacturers may refer to more precise periods of use, within the permitted range.
8 
Where a feeding stuff is intended to meet more than one particular nutritional purpose, it must comply with the corresponding entries in Chapter A.
9 
In the case of a complementary feedingstuff intended for a particular nutritional purpose, guidance on the balance of the daily ration must be provided in the instructions for use.
