    COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2023/1341

    of 30 June 2023

    concerning the renewal of the authorisation of the preparations of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum DSM 12836, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum DSM 12837, Lentilactobacillus buchneri DSM 16774, Pediococcus acidilactici DSM 16243, Pediococcus pentosaceus DSM 12834, Lacticaseibacillus paracasei DSM 16245, Levilactobacillus brevis DSM 12835, Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus NCIMB 30121, Lactococcus lactis NCIMB 30160, Lentilactobacillus buchneri DSM 12856 and Lactococcus lactis DSM 11037 as feed additives for all animal species, and repealing Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1263/2011

    (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 and renewing such an authorisation.

    (2)

    The preparations of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum DSM 12836 (previously taxonomically identified as Lactobacillus plantarum DSM 12836), Lactiplantibacillus plantarum DSM 12837 (previously taxonomically identified as Lactobacillus plantarum DSM 12837), Lentilactobacillus buchneri DSM 16774 (previously taxonomically identified as Lactobacillus buchneri DSM 16774), Pediococcus acidilactici DSM 16243, Pediococcus pentosaceus DSM 12834, Lacticaseibacillus paracasei DSM 16245 (previously taxonomically identified as Lactobacillus paracasei DSM 16245), Levilactobacillus brevis DSM 12835 (previously taxonomically identified as Lactobacillus brevis DSM 12835), Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus NCIMB 30121 (previously taxonomically identified as Lactobacillus rhamnosus NCIMB 30121), Lactococcus lactis NCIMB 30160, Lentilactobacillus buchneri DSM 12856 (previously taxonomically identified as Lactobacillus buchneri DSM 12856) and Lactococcus lactis DSM 11037 were authorised for a period of 10 years as feed additives for all animal species by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1263/2011 (2).

    (3)

    In accordance with Article 14(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, applications were submitted for the renewal of the authorisation of the preparations of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum DSM 12836, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum DSM 12837, Lentilactobacillus buchneri DSM 16774, Pediococcus acidilactici DSM 16243, Pediococcus pentosaceus DSM 12834, Lacticaseibacillus paracasei DSM 16245, Levilactobacillus brevis DSM 12835, Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus NCIMB 30121, Lactococcus lactis NCIMB 30160, Lentilactobacillus buchneri DSM 12856 and Lactococcus lactis DSM 11037 as feed additives for all animal species, requesting the additives to be classified in the additive category ‘technological additives’ and in the functional group ‘silage additives’. Those applications were accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 14(2) of that Regulation.

    (4)

    The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinions of 5 May 2021 (3) , (4), 23 June 2021 (5) , (6) , (7), 29 September 2021 (8) , (9) , (10), 10 November 2021 (11), 26 January 2022 (12) and 23 March 2022 (13) that the applicants have provided evidence that the additives remain safe for all animal species, the consumers and the environment under the authorised conditions of use. It also concluded that the preparations are not irritant to skin and eyes, but that they should be considered potential skin and respiratory sensitisers.

    (5)

    In accordance with Article 5(4), point (c), of Commission Regulation (EC) No 378/2005 (14), the Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 considered that the conclusions and recommendations reached in the previous assessments are valid and applicable for the current applications.

    (6)

    The assessment of the preparations shows that the conditions for authorisation, as provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. Accordingly, the authorisation of those additives should be renewed.

    (7)

    The Commission considers that appropriate protective measures should be taken to prevent adverse effects on the health of the users of the additive.

    (8)

    As a consequence of the renewal of the authorisation of those preparations as feed additives as well as the expiry of another authorisation concerned by Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1263/2011, that Regulation should be repealed.

    (9)

    Since safety reasons do not require the immediate application of the modifications to the conditions of authorisation of the preparations of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum DSM 12836, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum DSM 12837, Lentilactobacillus buchneri DSM 16774, Lacticaseibacillus paracasei DSM 16245, Levilactobacillus brevis DSM 12835, Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus NCIMB 30121 and Lentilactobacillus buchneri DSM 12856, it is appropriate to provide for a transitional period for interested parties to prepare themselves to meet the new requirements resulting from the renewal of the authorisation.

    (10)

    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

    Renewal of authorisation

    The authorisation of the preparations specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category ‘technological additives’ and to the functional group ‘silage additives’, are renewed subject to the conditions laid down in that Annex.

    Article 2

    Repeal

    Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1263/2011 is repealed.

    Article 3

    Transitional measures

    The preparations of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum DSM 12836, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum DSM 12837, Lentilactobacillus buchneri DSM 16774, Lacticaseibacillus paracasei DSM 16245, Levilactobacillus brevis DSM 12835, Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus NCIMB 30121 and Lentilactobacillus buchneri DSM 12856 specified in the Annex and feed containing them, which are produced and labelled before 23 July 2024 in accordance with the rules applicable before 23 July 2023 may continue to be placed on the market and used until the existing stocks are exhausted.

    Article 4

    Entry into force

    This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
