COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2022/808

of 23 May 2022

amending Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 as regards the approval period of the active substance bispyribac

(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 the Article 17, first paragraph, thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Part B of the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 (2) sets out the active substances approved under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009.

(2)

An application for the renewal of the approval of the active substance bispyribac was submitted on 30 July 2018, in accordance with Article 1 of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 844/2012 (3).

(3)

The approval period of the active substance bispyribac was extended from 31 July 2021 until 31 July 2023 by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1916 (4).

(4)

However, on 22 October 2020, the applicant confirmed that it no longer supports the application for renewal of approval.

(5)

As the application for renewal was withdrawn, the extension of the approval period of this active substance, provided for by Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1916, is no longer justified. Therefore, a new expiry date should be set at the earliest date possible, while giving Member States sufficient time to withdraw authorisations for plant protection products containing that substance.

(6)

Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(7)

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) No 540/2011 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, 23 May 2022.

For the Commission

The President

Ursula VON DER LEYEN
