1 Common gatekeeper requirements for palm oil products Draft for public consultation Introduction This protocol is meant to bring via a gatekeeper system edible palm oil products ( GMQ ) into the feed chain for use in feed. For this, reference is made to FOSFA contracts for edible palm oil. The FFA level is especially important. It gives a clear indication of the (Good Merchantable) quality of the oil. Note: The FFA level as such is not a food or feed safety issue. Gatekeeper requirements Explanation Scope Feed product Origin Applied by Other conditions Crude, refined and/or fractioned palm(kernel) oil (as defined in the EU Feed Catalogue 2017/1017 under No ) All countries outside EU The company that buys above mentioned products based on FOSFA contracts 53, 54, 80 or 81. Applicable until further notice The gatekeeper must register per palm oil mill location - The name, address, etc. - The processes carried out - The oil products produced Further, from every batch received must be registered - The volume - The sea vessel - FFA at port of loading - FFA at port of arrival Records and documentation related to the operation of this protocol must be documented. This must be available for the auditor and if requested for GMP+ International Requirements for the gatekeeper Application of HACCP principles to evaluate - The feed material - The supplier - The flow through the supply chain As laid down in the core standard of the scheme The risk assessment must encompasses all operations and activities, from original production up to delivery, and must result in addressing and controlling all hazards related to the GMQ palm oil. Supplier evaluation a) Desk study Applies to FOSFA contracts nos. 53, 54, 80 or 81, which are based on application of the manual FOSFA qualifications and procedures for vessels

2 engaged in the carriage of oils and fats in bulk for edible and oleo chemical use b) Supplier audit The following documents as stipulated in the FOSFA contracts that must be available: - FOSFA (short form) contract - Bill of Lading - FOSFA Certificate of Compliance, Cleanliness and Suitability of Ship s Tank - Certificate of Analysis with FFA, both at time of shipment and in port of arrival, in country of destination Not necessary c) Sampling See annex 1 d) Testing See annex 1 Competency No specific requirements. Requirements on scheme level/certification Approval procedure Notification to CB that company uses this gatekeeper protocol Notification to the scheme owner Specific scope or other way of public registration Yes, see Other conditions Yes, see Other conditions No

3 Annex 1 Sampling and monitoring 1. Sampling Batch by batch. For batch definition see core standard. For frequency of testing, see the table below. Sampling in accordance with NEN-EN-ISO method 5555 by a FOSFA Member Superintendent. 2. Monitoring The samples will in any event be analysed for the parameters which are summarised below. If the hazard analysis shows that a higher testing frequency is necessary or that other parameters deserve attention then these should be tested, too. Hydrocarbons 25 mg/kg (ppm) total hydrocarbon compounds (C10- C24) calculated as diesel oil or 400 mg/kg (ppm) total hydrocarbons (C10-C40 ) Analysis method GC-MS GC-FID Testing frequency Each batch Each batch Pesticides residues Maximum residue limits for pesticides as laid down in Regulation (EC) No. 396/2005 and Directive 2002/32/EC Testing frequency Once in 6 months, various origins Testing frequency Dioxin and dioxin like PCB s 0.75 ng WHO-PCDD/F-TEQ/kg for dioxin 1.5 ng WHO-PCDD/FPCB-TEQ/kg for dioxin like PCB s Once in 3 months, various origins Heavy metals

4 Testing frequency Lead: 10 mg/kg Cadmium: 1 mg/kg Arsenic: 2 mg/kg Mercury: 0.1 mg/kg On the basis of a hazard analysis but at least once per year Free Fatty Acids (FFA) Acceptance limit When FOB in port of loading max 7 % When CIF in port of arrival max 10% Testing frequency Each batch

5 As background information find below the adapted version of the GMP+ protocol ANNEX 7: Gatekeeper protocol for purchase of GMQ Palm Oil 1. Scope The Palm Oil Gatekeeper Protocol can be used for buying normal, main stream, Good Merchantable Quality Crude, Refined and/or Fractionated Palm Oil and Palm kernel Oil, (as defined in the EU Feed Catalogue 2017/1017 under No ) from a non-gmp+ certified origin. 1.1 Companies This protocol applies to companies which receive CIF shipments of crude, refined and/or fractionated palm (kernel) oil Products Crude, refined and/or fractionated palm (kernel) oil, referred to hereafter by the term palm oil. See also paragraph 2. Guidance: 1. This means the fats and oils from the palm (kernel) oil industry. These may be the crude oils and fats or also fractionated (oleic and stearin fraction) and refined oils and fats. This protocol cannot be used for the remainder fractions such as palm acid oils - fatty acid distillates. 2. General conditions The palm oil which falls under this protocol must be of Good Merchantable Quality (GMQ) as laid down in FOSFA contracts. The protocol applies to CIF contract numbers 53, 54, 80 and 81 of FOSFA. GMQ must be proved and verified (via FFA% and documentation evidence; see for this resp. paragraph 3 and 4) 1. Up to 5 7% at time of shipment: Application of this protocol is possible 2. From 5-8% FFA analysis in port of arrival, in country of destination: Application of this protocol is possible. Origin and safety control of the product must be proven. For this, additional criteria will be added. Above 8% in port of arrival, in country of destination: this protocol cannot be used for buying this palm oil. 1. When FOB in port of loading max 7 % 2. When CIF in port of arrival max 10%. If FFA level is above 10% in port of arrival, this protocol can not be used

6 Specific conditions The safety of palm oil for feed must be guaranteed by compliance with the requirements laid down in this protocol Requirements regarding safety During sea transport the rules apply as laid down in the manual FOSFA qualifications and procedures for vessels engaged in the carriage of oils and fats in bulk for edible and oleo chemical use. The rules from the FOSFA manual are the basis for the FOSFA-54, 80 and 81 contracts for CIF delivery of palm oil. With respect to quality, these rules include, among other things: a. the obligation that the batches supplied must be of good merchantable quality ( GMQ ) b. the use of steam and hot water as a heating agent c. effective cleaning of ships tanks, according to the FOSFA qualifications and operational procedures for ships engaged in the carriage of oils and fats in bulk d. loading and unloading inspection by FOSFA Recognized Superintendents e. sampling according to section 3.5. f. tracing back to land tanks in the export ports g. previous cargoes in sea vessels: 1. in loading compartments of stainless steel or which are covered with epoxy resin or with a technically equivalent coating, then the last cargo which is transported in the tank should be a foodstuff or should appear on the EU list of acceptable previous cargoes (see EU Directive 852/2004, amended by EU Commission Directive 579/2014); 2. if the palm oil is transported in a vessel with tanks of materials other than specified above then the previous three loads transported in the tank should be foodstuffs or should appear on the EU list of acceptable previous cargoes (see EU Directive 852/2004, amended by EU Commission Directive 579/2014); 3.2 Documentation evidence The company that have imported palm oil under this protocol should be able to provide documentation evidence for auditing and certification purposes that the palm oil is imported under FOSFA contracts and requirements. The following documents as stipulated in the FOSFA contracts that must be available: - FOSFA (short form) contract - Bill of Lading - FOSFA Certificate of Compliance, Cleanliness and Suitability of Ship s Tank - Certificate of Analysis, both at time port of shipment and in port of arrival, in country of destination The gatekeeper must register per palm oil mill location The name, address, etc. The processes carried out The oil products produced Further, from every batch received must be registered The volume The sea vessel FFA at port of loading

7 FFA at port of arrival Records and documentation related to the operation of this protocol must be documented. This must be available for the auditor and if requested for GMP+ International Guidance: See for examples of this documentation GMP+ D2.6 Guidance documents for specific GMP+ application, 3.3 Analysis in port of shippingloading GMQ must be demonstrated by a FFA analysis. For each seagoing vessel in port of shipping, each batch ships tank is analysed for FFA. At time of shipment, FFA must not exceed 57%. 3.4 Analysis in port of arrival (in country of destination) Of a seagoing vessel in port of arrival in country of destination, the following substances must be analysed: Gasoil 25 mg/kg (ppm) total or hydrocarbon compounds (C10- C24) calculated as diesel oil 400 mg/kg (ppm) total hydrocarbons (C10-C40 ) Analysis method GC-MS GC-FID Inspection Each batch Each batch frequency Each ships tank Each ships tank Inspection frequency Pesticides residues Maximum residue limits for pesticides as laid down in Regulation (EC) No. 396/2005 and Directive 2002/32/EC Every half year Inspection frequency Dioxin and dioxin like PCB s 0.75 ng WHO-PCDD/F-TEQ/kg for dioxin 1.5 ng WHO-PCDD/FPCB-TEQ/kg for dioxin like PCB s Once in 3 months, varied origins Note: IN GMP+ BA4 Sampling and Analysis is laid down that dioxin and dioxin like PCB s must be analysed, based on the company s own risk assessment. If this risk assessment shows that the GMQ Palm oil should be monitored with a higher frequency, this must be carried out. Otherwise, once every 3 months is OK.

8 Inspection frequency Heavy metals Lead: 10 mg/kg Cadmium: 1 mg/kg Arsenic: 2 mg/kg Mercury: 0.1 mg/kg On the basis of a hazard analysis but at least once per year Inspection frequency Free Fatty Acids (FFA) In port of arrival in country of destination 8% Each batch Each ships tank Note: If the hazard analysis shows that a higher testing frequency is necessary or that other parameters deserve attention then these should be tested, too Sampling method Sampling in accordance with NEN-EN-ISO method Analysis method All analysis must be carried out by a laboratory certified for that analysis under the GMP+ B10 standard, or accredited for that analysis under ISO17025 resp.
