40In that regard, recital 5 of Directive 2009/54 specifies that the primary purposes of any rules on natural mineral waters should be to protect the health of consumers, to prevent consumers from being misled and to ensure fair trading. In support of this, recital 7 of that directive provides that care should be taken to ensure that natural mineral waters retain at the marketing stage those characteristics which enabled them to be recognised as such, and recital 9 states that the inclusion of the statement of the analytical composition of a natural mineral water should be compulsory in order to ensure that consumers are informed.
