    COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION (EU) 2018/1622

    of 29 October 2018

    on the non-approval of certain active substances in biocidal products pursuant to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council

    (Text with EEA relevance)

    THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

    Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

    Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2012 concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products (1), and in particular the third subparagraph of Article 89(1) thereof,

    Whereas:

    (1)

    Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014 (2), as amended by Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/698 (3), establishes in its Annex II a list of active substance/product-type combinations included in the review programme of existing active substances in biocidal products on 3 February 2017.

    (2)

    For a number of active substance/product-type combinations included in that list, all the participants have withdrawn their support in a timely manner.

    (3)

    As regards some active substances generated in situ, the name of those active substances and their precursors which are supported in the review programme has been clarified in a more precise manner. This has lead in certain cases to a redefinition of the active substance in accordance with Article 13 of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014.

    (4)

    A notification was published inviting persons wishing to support those active substance/product-types combinations which have been redefined and currently not supported, including the generation in situ of the active substances for the product-types listed in Annex II to Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014, so that the role of participant may be taken over.

    (5)

    For some active substance/product-type combinations no notification has been submitted or a notification has been submitted and rejected pursuant to paragraphs 4 or 5 of Article 17 of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014.

    (6)

    In accordance with Article 20 of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014, those active substance/product-type combinations should not be approved for use in biocidal products.

    (7)

    The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products,

    HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

    Article 1

    The active substances listed in the Annex are not approved for the product-types indicated therein.

    Article 2

    This Decision shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

    Done at Brussels, 29 October 2018.

    For the Commission

    The President

    Jean-Claude JUNCKER
