COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 156/2008
of 21 February 2008
amending Regulation (EC) No 109/2007 as regards the minimum content of the feed additive monensin sodium (Coxidin)
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 September 2003 on additives for use in animal nutrition (1) and in particular Article 13(3) thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
The additive monensin sodium (Coxidin) was authorised under certain conditions in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. Commission Regulation (EC) No 109/2007 (2) authorised that additive for 10 years for use for chickens for fattening and turkey, linking the authorisation to the holder of authorisation for putting that additive into circulation. |
|
(2) |
Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provides for the possibility of modifying the authorisation of an additive further to a request from the holder of the authorisation and an opinion of the European Food Safety Authority (the Authority). |
|
(3) |
The holder of the authorisation of the feed additive monensin sodium (Coxidin) has submitted an application which proposes changing the terms of the authorisation by reducing the minimum content of that additive as regards use for turkeys. |
|
(4) |
In its opinion adopted on 18 September 2007, the Authority has proposed to reduce the minimum content of the additive for turkeys from 90 mg to 60 mg per kg of complete feedingstuff because it can be considered efficacious in the control of coccidiosis (3). |
|
(5) |
Regulation (EC) No 109/2007 should therefore be amended accordingly. |
|
(6) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The Annex to Regulation (EC) No 109/2007 is replaced by the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following 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, 21 February 2008.
