COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2022/1252

of 19 July 2022

amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/408 to update the list of candidates for substitution

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market and repealing Council Directives 79/117/EEC and 91/414/EEC (1), and in particular Articles 78(2) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

The Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/408 (2) contains a list of active substances which satisfy the criteria set out in point 4 of Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 for being considered as candidates for substitution.

(2)

A number of those substances are no longer approved or their approvals have been renewed pursuant to Article 20 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009, resulting in a listing in Part E of the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 (3). Their listing in the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/408 is no longer relevant. In the interest of clarity and transparency, they should be deleted from this Annex.

(3)

Quizalofop-P (variant quizalofop-P-tefuryl) is an approved active substance listed in the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/408 as a candidate for substitution because of its former harmonised classification as toxic for reproduction category 1B in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4). Commission Regulation (EU) 2018/1480 (5) updated this classification to toxic for reproduction category 2. Therefore, quizalofop-P-tefuryl no longer fulfils the criteria to be considered a candidate for substitution and should be deleted from the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/408.

(4)

Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/408 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(5)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/408 is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.

Article 2

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

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 19 July 2022.

For the Commission

The President

Ursula VON DER LEYEN
