Questions referred

1. |
Should the term ‘biocidal products’ in Article 3 of Regulation 528/2012 (1) be interpreted as also referring to substances which consist of one or more types of bacteria, enzymes or other constituents, given that, due to the specific way in which they act, they have no direct effect on the harmful organism for which they are intended, but on the creation or maintenance of the potential habitat of that harmful organism, and what requirements must then, where appropriate, be imposed on such an effect? |
|
2. |
In answering question 1, is it relevant whether the situation in which such a product is used is free of the harmful organism, and, if so, what criterion should be used to assess whether the latter is present? |
|
3. |
In answering question 1, does the period within which the effect takes place have any relevance? |
