Esterificeret og etherificeret stivelse kan som følge af disse produkters særlige beskaffenhed forlede til forarbejdning i spekulationsøjemed for at opnå produktionsrestitution mere end én gang. For at undgå spekulation bør der fastsættes foranstaltninger for at sikre, at esterificeret og etherificeret stivelse ikke igen omdannes til en råvare, ved hvis anvendelse der kan ansøges om restitution.
The special characteristics of esterified or etherified starch could lead to certain speculative processing operations designed to receive the production refund more than once; so as to prevent such speculation, measures are needed to ensure that esterified or etherified starch is not reprocessed into a raw material the use of which gives the right to apply for a refund.
