Whereas:
(1)
An error has occurred in the Spanish language version of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1881/2006 (3) and its amendment by Regulation (EU) No 1258/2011 amending Regulation (EC) No 1881/2006 as regards maximum levels for nitrates in foodstuffs. Therefore a correction of the text of the table in the Annex of the Spanish language version of Regulation (EC) No 1881/2006 is necessary. The other languages are not affected.

Regulation (EC) No 1881/2006 should therefore be corrected accordingly.
