    (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 Article 89(1), third subparagraph, thereof,

    Whereas:

    (3)

    In accordance with Article 14(1) of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014, the European Chemicals Agency (‘the Agency’) published an open invitation to take over the role of participant for those active substance/product-type combinations for which the role of participant had not previously been taken over. For those combinations no notification has been submitted to the Agency within the time limit provided for by Article 14(2) of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014. Therefore, those active substance/product-type combinations, in accordance with Article 20, first paragraph, point (b), of that Delegated Regulation, should not be approved for use in biocidal products. Those active substance/product-type combinations are the following:

    (a)

    (b)

    potassium dimethyldithiocarbamate (product-types 9, 11, 12);

    (c)

    silver-polyethylenimine-chloride (product-types 1, 2, 9);

    (d)

    (e)

    poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl),.alpha.-[2-(dide-cylmethylammonio)ethyl]-.omega.-hydroxy, propanoate (salt) (Bardap 26) (product-types 2, 4, 10).

    (4)

    In addition, in accordance with Article 12(3) of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014, the Agency informed the Commission of those active substance/product-type combinations for which all participants have withdrawn or are considered to have withdrawn their support in a timely manner, and for which the role of participant had previously been taken over. Those active substance/product-type combinations which, in accordance with Article 20, first paragraph, point (a), of that Delegated Regulation, should not be approved for use in biocidal products are the following:

    (a)

    2,2-Dibromo-2-cyanoacetamide (DBNPA)(product-type 2);

    (b)

    active chlorine generated from magnesium chloride hexahydrate and potassium chloride by electrolysis (product-type 2);

    (c)

    garlic, ext. - Extractives and their physically modified derivatives such as tinctures, concretes, absolutes, essential oils, oleoresins, terpenes, terpene-free fractions, distillates, residues, etc., obtained from Allium sativum, Liliaceae (product-type 19);

    (d)

    brandy (product-type 19).
