COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 1365/2013
of 18 December 2013
concerning the authorisation of a preparation of alpha-galactosidase produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae (CBS 615.94) and endo-1,4-beta-glucanase produced by Aspergillus niger (CBS 120604) as a feed additive for minor poultry species for fattening and for chickens reared for laying (holder of authorisation Kerry Ingredients and Flavours)

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 such authorisation. |
|
(2) |
In accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, an application was submitted for a new use of a preparation of alpha-galactosidase produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae (CBS 615.94) and endo-1,4-beta-glucanase produced by Aspergillus niger (CBS 120604). That application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. |
|
(3) |
That application concerns the authorisation of a new use of a preparation of alpha-galactosidase produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae (CBS 615.94) and endo-1,4-beta-glucanase produced by Aspergillus niger (CBS 120604) as a feed additive for minor poultry species for fattening and for chickens reared for laying, to be classified in the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’. |
|
(4) |
The use of that preparation was authorised for 10 years for chickens for fattening by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 237/2012 (2). |
|
(5) |
The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concludes in its opinion of 18 June 2013 (3) that, under the proposed conditions of use, the preparation of alpha-galactosidase produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae (CBS 615.94) and endo-1,4-beta-glucanase produced by Aspergillus niger (CBS 120604) does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment and it has the potential to be efficacious on chickens reared for laying and that can be extrapolated to minor poultry species for fattening. The Authority does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post-market monitoring. It also verified the report on the method of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. |
|
(6) |
The assessment of the preparation of alpha-galactosidase produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae (CBS 615.94) and endo-1,4-beta-glucanase produced by Aspergillus niger (CBS 120604) shows that the conditions for authorisation, as provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. Accordingly, the use of that preparation should be authorised as specified in the Annex to this Regulation. |
|
(7) |
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 preparation specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’ and to the functional group ‘digestibility enhancers’, is authorised as an additive in animal nutrition subject to the conditions laid down in that Annex.
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.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 18 December 2013.
