COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2022/1452

of 1 September 2022

concerning the authorisation of 3-ethylcyclopentan-1,2-dione, 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethylfuran-3(2H)-one, 4,5-dihydro-2-methylfuran-3(2H)-one, eugenol, 1-methoxy-4-(prop-1(trans)-enyl)benzene, α-pentylcinnamaldehyde, α-hexylcinnamaldehyde and 2-acetylpyridine as feed additives for certain animal species

(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 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 an authorisation. Article 10(2) of that Regulation provides for the re-evaluation of additives authorised pursuant to Council Directive 70/524/EEC (2). |
| --- | --- |

(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 an authorisation. Article 10(2) of that Regulation provides for the re-evaluation of additives authorised pursuant to Council Directive 70/524/EEC (2).

| (2) | The substances 3-ethylcyclopentan-1,2-dione, 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethylfuran-3(2H)-one, 4,5-dihydro-2-methylfuran-3(2H)-one, eugenol, 1-methoxy-4-(prop-1(trans)-enyl)benzene, α-pentylcinnamaldehyde, α-hexylcinnamaldehyde and 2-acetylpyridine were authorised without a time limit in accordance with Directive 70/524/EEC as feed additives for all animal species. Those substances were subsequently entered in the Register of feed additives as existing products, in accordance with Article 10(1)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. |
| --- | --- |

(2)

The substances 3-ethylcyclopentan-1,2-dione, 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethylfuran-3(2H)-one, 4,5-dihydro-2-methylfuran-3(2H)-one, eugenol, 1-methoxy-4-(prop-1(trans)-enyl)benzene, α-pentylcinnamaldehyde, α-hexylcinnamaldehyde and 2-acetylpyridine were authorised without a time limit in accordance with Directive 70/524/EEC as feed additives for all animal species. Those substances were subsequently entered in the Register of feed additives as existing products, in accordance with Article 10(1)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.

| (3) | In accordance with Article 10(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 in conjunction with Article 7 thereof, several applications were submitted for the re-evaluation of a preparation of 3-ethylcyclopentan-1,2-dione, α-pentylcinnamaldehyde, α-hexylcinnamaldehyde and 2-acetylpyridine for all animal species, eugenol and 1-methoxy-4-(prop-1(trans)-enyl)benzene for all animal species except poultry and fish and 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethylfuran-3(2H)-one and 4,5-dihydro-2-methylfuran-3(2H)-one for cats and dogs. |
| --- | --- |

(3)

In accordance with Article 10(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 in conjunction with Article 7 thereof, several applications were submitted for the re-evaluation of a preparation of 3-ethylcyclopentan-1,2-dione, α-pentylcinnamaldehyde, α-hexylcinnamaldehyde and 2-acetylpyridine for all animal species, eugenol and 1-methoxy-4-(prop-1(trans)-enyl)benzene for all animal species except poultry and fish and 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethylfuran-3(2H)-one and 4,5-dihydro-2-methylfuran-3(2H)-one for cats and dogs.

| (4) | The applicant requested the additives to be classified in the additive category ‘sensory additives’ and in the functional group ‘flavouring compounds’. Those applications were accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. |
| --- | --- |

The applicant requested the additives to be classified in the additive category ‘sensory additives’ and in the functional group ‘flavouring compounds’. Those applications were accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.

| (5) | The applicant requested the additives to be authorised for use also in water for drinking. However, Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 does not allow the authorisation of flavouring compounds for use in water for drinking. Therefore, the use of these additives in water for drinking should not be allowed. |

The applicant requested the additives to be authorised for use also in water for drinking. However, Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 does not allow the authorisation of flavouring compounds for use in water for drinking. Therefore, the use of these additives in water for drinking should not be allowed.

| (6) | The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinions of 15 November 2011 (3),13 June 2012 (4), 26 January 2016 (5), 19 October 2016 (6) and 6 December 2016 (7), that, under the proposed conditions of use, the additives do not have adverse effects on animal health, consumer health or the environment. The Authority also concluded that hazards for skin and eye contact and respiratory exposure are recognised in regard to those additives. Therefore, the Commission considers that appropriate protective measures should be taken to prevent adverse effects on human health, in particular as regards the users of the additive. |

(6)

The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinions of 15 November 2011 (3),13 June 2012 (4), 26 January 2016 (5), 19 October 2016 (6) and 6 December 2016 (7), that, under the proposed conditions of use, the additives do not have adverse effects on animal health, consumer health or the environment. The Authority also concluded that hazards for skin and eye contact and respiratory exposure are recognised in regard to those additives. Therefore, the Commission considers that appropriate protective measures should be taken to prevent adverse effects on human health, in particular as regards the users of the additive.

| (7) | The Authority concluded that the additives are recognised to flavour food and their function in feed would be essentially the same as that in food, therefore, no further demonstration of efficacy is considered necessary. It also verified the report on the methods of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. |
