Lanthanum carbonate octahydrate was authorised for 10 years as a feed additive for cats by Commission Regulation (EC) No 163/2008 (2). |
|
(3) |
In accordance with Article 14 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, an application was submitted by the holder of that authorisation for the renewal of the authorisation of lanthanum carbonate octahydrate as a feed additive for cats, requesting that additive to be classified in the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’. That application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 14(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. |

The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinion of 29 November 2018 (3) that the applicant has provided data demonstrating that the additive complies with the conditions of authorisation. |
|
(5) |
The assessment of lanthanum carbonate octahydrate shows that the conditions for authorisation, as provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. Accordingly, the authorisation of that additive should be renewed as specified in the Annex to this Regulation. |
|
(6) |
As a consequence of the renewal of the authorisation of lanthanum carbonate octahydrate as a feed additive under the conditions laid down in the Annex to this Regulation, Regulation (EC) No 163/2008 should be repealed. |
|
(7) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed, |
