(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 amyloliquefaciens CECT 5940 was authorised for 10 years for chickens for fattening by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1292/2008 of 18 December 2008 concerning the authorisation of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens CECT 5940 (Ecobiol and Ecobiol Plus) as a feed additive (2).

(4)

The holder of the authorisation submitted an application for a modification of the authorisation of this additive to allow its use in feed containing the coccidiostats monensin sodium, diclazuril, nicarbazin, robenidine hydrochloride, salinomycin sodium, lasalocid sodium, narasin/nicarbazin, maduramycin ammonium, decoquinate or semduramicin sodium for chickens for fattening. The holder of the authorisation submitted the relevant data to support its request.

(5)

The Authority concluded in its opinion of 9 November 2010 that the additive Bacillus amyloliquefaciens CECT 5940 is compatible with diclazuril, monensin sodium and nicarbazin (3).

(6)

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

(7)

Regulation (EC) No 1292/2008 should therefore be amended accordingly.
