THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provides for the authorisation of additives for use in animal nutrition and for the grounds and procedure for granting such authorisation.

(2)

Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provides for the possibility to modify the authorisation of an additive further to a request from the holder of the authorisation and an opinion of the European Food Safety Authority (the Authority).

(3)

The use of the micro-organism preparation of Bacillus subtilis DSM 17299 (O35) was authorised for 10 years for chickens for fattening by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1137/2007 (2).

(4)

In accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, an application for a modification of the authorisation of that preparation was submitted to allow its use in feed containing the coccidiostats decoquinate and narasin/nicarbazin for chickens for fattening. That application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of that Regulation.

(5)

The Authority concluded in its opinion of 22 October 2008 that the compatibility of the additive Bacillus subtilis DSM 17299 (O35) with decoquinate and narasin/nicarbazin was established (3).

(6)

The conditions provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 are satisfied.

(7)

Regulation (EC) No 1137/2007 should therefore be amended accordingly.
