COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2017/194

of 3 February 2017

concerning the authorisation of the preparation of Lactobacillus diolivorans DSM 32074 as a feed additive for all 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 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 the preparation of Lactobacillus diolivorans DSM 32074. This 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 the preparation of Lactobacillus diolivorans DSM 32074. This application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.

| (3) | This application concerns the authorisation of the preparation of Lactobacillus diolivorans DSM 32074 as a feed additive for all animal species to be classified in the category ‘technological additives’. |
| --- | --- |

(3)

This application concerns the authorisation of the preparation of Lactobacillus diolivorans DSM 32074 as a feed additive for all animal species to be classified in the category ‘technological additives’.

| (4) | The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinion of 12 July 2016 (2) that, under the proposed conditions of use, the preparation of Lactobacillus diolivorans DSM 32074 does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment. However, the additive should be considered to have the potential to be a respiratory sensitiser. The Authority also concluded that the concerned preparation has the potential to improve the production of silage prepared from easy, moderately difficult and difficult to ensile material. The Authority does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post-market monitoring. 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. |
