Health Canada's Food Directorate completed a detailed safety assessment of a food additive submission seeking approval for the use of ground limestone in hard and soft candies and in inks for writing on various confections.

Health Canada published a Notice of Health Canada's Proposal to Enable the Use of Ground Limestone as a Colouring Agent in Understandardized Confectionery [NOP/ADP-0029] on October 4, 2018. The proposal was open to the public for comment for 75 days. No comments were received during this period.

As no safety concerns were identified through Health Canada's assessment, the Department has enabled the use of ground limestone as a food additive as described in the information document below by modifying the List of Permitted Colouring Agents, effective March 20, 2019.

The purpose of this communication is to publically announce the Department's decision in this regard and to provide the appropriate contact information for any inquiries or for those wishing to submit any new scientific information relevant to the safety of this food additive.
