Maximum limits for the use of certain food additives (1) in certain category of food products are specified in the Public Health (Food) Regulations, (R1 Chapter 182). This can be viewed in the Eighth Schedule( attached). 

I saw some Maximum permitted proportion in parts per million (ppm) in those files. 

 

On their website states that "Where the standard is not specified in the Public Health (Food) Act (Chapter 182) and its Regulations (R1, Chapter 182), then Codex Alimentarius international standards shall apply.
 
If you are not sure or can't find the answer, you should contact them directly per their instructions. 
 
For example, if you are importing processed foods such as sauces, spices or confectioneries, you are required to register with the FSQCD. Further information on products and commodities controlled by other government agencies can be found here.
