COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 140/2012
of 17 February 2012
concerning the authorisation of monensin sodium as a feed additive for chickens reared for laying (holder of authorisation Huvepharma NV Belgium)
(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 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 9(2) thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provides for the authorisation of additives for use in animal nutrition and for the grounds and procedures for granting such authorisation. |
|
(2) |
In accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, an application was submitted for the authorisation of monensin sodium. That application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. |
|
(3) |
The application concerns the authorisation of monensin sodium as a feed additive for chickens reared for laying, to be classified in the additive category ‘coccidiostats and histomonostats’. |
|
(4) |
The use of monensin sodium was authorised for 10 years as a feed additive for use in chickens for fattening and turkeys up to 16 weeks by Commission Regulation (EC) No 109/2007 (2). |
|
(5) |
The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinion of 15 November 2011 (3) that, under the proposed conditions of use, monensin sodium does not have an adverse effect on human health, animal health or the environment, and that its use is efficacious in controlling eimeria infections. It also verified the report on the method of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. |
|
(6) |
The assessment of monensin sodium shows that the conditions for authorisation, as provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. Accordingly, the use of this preparation should be authorised as specified in the Annex to this Regulation. |
|
(7) |
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 preparation specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category ‘coccidiostats and histomonostats’, is authorised as an additive in animal nutrition, subject to the conditions laid down in that Annex.
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, 17 February 2012.
