    (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)

    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)

    Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provides for the possibility to modify the authorisation of a feed additive further to a request from the holder of the authorisation and an opinion of the European Food Safety Authority (the Authority).

    (3)

    The use of the micro-organism preparation of Bacillus subtilis ATCC PTA-6737 was authorised for 10 years for chickens for fattening by Commission Regulation (EU) No 107/2010 (2).

    (4)

    The holder of the authorisation applied for a modification of the authorisation of Bacillus subtilis ATCC PTA-6737 to allow its use in feed containing the coccidiostats maduramycin ammonium, monensin sodium, narasin, or robenidine hydrochloride for chickens for fattening. The holder of the authorisation submitted the relevant data to support this request.

    (5)

    The Authority concluded in its opinion of 7 October 2010 that the additive Bacillus subtilis ATCC PTA-6737 is compatible with maduramycin ammonium, monensin sodium, narasin, or robenidine hydrochloride (3).

    (6)

    The conditions provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 are satisfied.

    (7)

    Regulation (EU) No 107/2010 should therefore be amended accordingly.

    (8)

    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 Annex to Regulation (EU) No 107/2010 is replaced by the text in the Annex to this Regulation.

    Article 2
