COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 1074/2011

of 24 October 2011

concerning the authorisation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCYC R-625 as a feed additive for weaned piglets (holder of the authorisation Integro Gida SAN. ve TIC. A.S. represented by RM Associates Ltd)

(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 authorisation. |
| --- | --- |

(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 the authorisation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCYC R-625. That application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. |

(2)

In accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, an application was submitted for the authorisation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCYC R-625. That application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.

| (3) | The application concerns the authorisation of the preparation set out in the Annex as a feed additive for weaned piglets, to be classified in the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’. |
| --- | --- |

(3)

The application concerns the authorisation of the preparation set out in the Annex as a feed additive for weaned piglets, to be classified in the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’.

| (4) | The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinion of 11 May 2011 (2) that Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCYC R-625, under the proposed conditions of use, does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment, and that this additive has the potential to improve the growth performance in weaned piglets. 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. |
