    COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 1334/2013

    of 13 December 2013

    amending Regulation (EC) No 1290/2008 as regards the name of the holder of the authorisation and as regards the recommended dose of a preparation of Lactobacillus rhamnosus (CNCM-I-3698) and Lactobacillus farciminis (CNCM-I-3699)

    (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)

    Danisco France SAS has submitted an application in accordance with Article 13(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 proposing to change the name of the holder of the authorisation as regards Commission Regulation (EC) No 1290/2008 (2).

    (2)

    The applicant claims that it has transferred the marketing authorisation for the preparation Lactobacillus rhamnosus (CNCM-I-3698) and Lactobacillus farciminis (CNCM-I-3699) to Danisco (UK) Ltd and that the latter now owns the marketing rights for this additive.

    (3)

    The aim of the application is also to enable the marketing of the feed additive with a concentration five times higher than the minimum concentration. In order to ensure that the minimum and maximum contents set out in the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1290/2008 are respected, the recommended dose per kilogram of complete feedingstuff has to be modified.

    (4)

    The proposed change of the authorisation holder is purely administrative in nature and does not entail a fresh assessment of the additive concerned. The latter has been authorised on the basis of a European Food Safety Authority Opinion (3). The subsequent request to change the recommended dose is in accordance with this same Opinion and does not entail a new assessment. The European Food Safety Authority was informed of the application.

    (5)

    In order to adapt to current practice the trade name should be deleted from Regulation (EC) No 1290/2008.

    (6)

    To allow Danisco (UK) Ltd to exploit its marketing rights it is necessary to change the terms of the respective authorisation.

    (7)

    Regulation (EC) No 1290/2008 should therefore be amended accordingly.

    (8)

    Since safety reasons do not require the immediate application of the amendments made by this Regulation to Regulation (EC) No 1290/2008, it is appropriate to provide for a transitional period during which existing stocks may be used up.

    (9)

    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

    Amendment to Regulation (EC) No 1290/2008

    (b)

    in the third column, the word ‘(Sorbiflore)’ is deleted;

    (c)
