SCHEDULE
[1] Standard 1.1.1 is varied by -
[1.1] inserting in clause 2 -
galacto-oligosaccharides means a mixture of those substances produced from lactose by enzymatic action, comprised of between two and eight saccharide units, with one of these units being a terminal glucose and the remaining saccharide units being galactose, and disaccharides comprised of two units of galactose.
inulin-derived substances means mixtures of polymers of fructose with predominantly (2?1) fructosyl-fructose linkages, with or without a terminal glucose molecule and includes inulin, but does not include those polymers of fructose produced from sucrose by enzymatic action.

(ii) Standard 1.2.4 - Labelling of Ingredients; or
(iii) clause 16 - declaration of nutrition information; or
(g) subject to Division 3, a representation that the food is suitable for a particular condition, disease or disorder.
(2) Subject to clause 28, the label on a package of infant formula product must not contain a reference to inulin-derived substances or galacto-oligosaccharides except for a reference to either substances in -
(a) a statement of ingredients; or
(b) the nutrition information statement.
[4.5] omitting the Nutrition Information table in the Guidelines for Infant Formula Products, substituting -

[5] Standard 2.9.2 is varied by -
[5.1] omitting paragraph 2(2)(b) substituting -
(b) lactic acid producing cultures; and
(c) either singularly or in combination, no more than 0.8 g/ 100 g of inulin-derived substances and galacto-oligosaccharides, as consumed.
(3) For paragraph 2(2)(c) the maximum permitted amount only applies when the substances are added. In that case the maximum permitted amount then applies to the sum of the naturally occurring and the added substances.
[5.2] omitting subclause 2(3) and the heading to the Table to paragraph 2(3)(c), substituting -
(4) Food for infants must not contain -
(a) more than 50 mg/100 g of total iron in cereal-based food on a moisture free basis; or
(b) honey, unless it has been treated to inactivate Clostridium botulinum spores; or
(c) more than the total quantity of sodium set out in column 2 of the Table to this paragraph for each particular type of food for infants; or

The intent of subclause (5) is to ensure that the food, except in the case of rusks, should have a texture that is soft and free of lumps.
[6] Standard 2.9.3 is varied by inserting in clause 6 -
(4) Formulated supplementary foods for young children may contain singularly or in combination, no more than 1.6 g of inulin-derived substances and galacto-oligosaccharides per serving.
