COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 414/2012
of 15 May 2012
amending Regulation (EC) No 554/2008 as regards the minimum content and the minimum recommended dose of an enzyme preparation of 6-phytase as a feed additive in feed for turkeys for fattening
(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 13(3) thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
An enzyme preparation of 6-phytase (EC 3.1.3.26), belonging to the additive category of ‘zootechnical additives’, was authorised for 10 years as a feed additive for use for chickens for fattening, laying hens, ducks for fattening, turkeys for fattening and weaned piglets by Commission Regulation (EC) No 554/2008 (2). |
|
(2) |
In accordance with Article 13(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, the holder of the authorisation has proposed changing the terms of authorisation of the preparation concerned by reducing its minimum content and the minimum recommended dose from 1 000 FTU/kg to 500 FTU/kg complete feedingstuff, as regards use for turkeys for fattening. That application was accompanied by the relevant supporting data. |
|
(3) |
The European Food Safety Authority concluded in its opinion of 13 November 2011 that the preparation concerned has the potential to improve phosphorus utilisation in turkeys for fattening at the requested minimum dose of 500 FTU/kg (3) complete feedingstuff. |
|
(4) |
The conditions provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 are satisfied. |
|
(5) |
Regulation (EC) No 554/2008 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
Regulation (EC) No 554/2008 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.
