NOTIFICATION  
Addendum  
The following communication, received on 25 September 2023, is being circulated at the request of 
the Delegation of  the European Union . 
 
_______________  
 
 
Commission Implementing Regulation  (EU) 2022/415 of 11 March 2022 concerning the authorisation 
of malic acid, citric acid produced by Aspergillus niger  DSM 25794 or CGMCC 4513/CGMCC 5751 or 
CICC 40347/CGMCC 5343, sorbic acid and potassium sorbate, acetic acid, sodium diacetate and 
calcium a cetate, propionic acid, sodium propionate, calcium propionate and ammonium propionate, 
formic acid, sodium formate, calcium formate and ammonium formate, and lactic acid produced by 
Bacillus coagulans  (LMG S -26145 or DSM 23965), or Bacillus smithii  (LMG S -27890) or Bacillus subtilis  
(LMG S -27889) and calcium lactate as feed additives for all animal species (Text with EEA relevance)  
This proposal aims at correcting Commission Implementing Regulation 2022/415 notified in 
G/SPS/N/EU/552 on 5 April 2022 [OJ L 68, 6.3.2023, p. 55]. Namely, it corrects the title of 
Commission Implementing Regulation 2022/415 (that erroneously refers to "all animal species"), 
excludes ruminants with a non -functional rumen from the animal categories covered by the 
authorisati on of lactic acid and calcium lactate and deletes the entry related to iron wrongly added 
for calcium acetate under "Characterisation of the active substance".
