(3)In order to allow for the smooth functioning of the poultrymeat market, marketing standards for poultrymeat should cover the classification criteria, the presentation, marking and packing requirements, the type of farming and production method, the preservation and handling, the use of optional reserved terms, the tolerance levels and the conditions for imports. Since all these aspects are closely interlinked, the rules on marketing standards for poultrymeat should be maintained as a coherent set of rules, and therefore be laid in one delegated act.
