COMMISSION DIRECTIVE 2006/75/EC

of 11 September 2006

amending Council Directive 91/414/EEC to include dimoxystrobin as active substance

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 91/414/EEC of 15 July 1991 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (1), and in particular Article 6(1) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | In accordance with Article 6(2) of Directive 91/414/EEC the United Kingdom received on 28 November 2001 an application from BASF for the inclusion of the active substance dimoxystrobin in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC. Commission Decision 2002/593/EC (2) confirmed that the dossier was ‘complete’ in the sense that it could be considered as satisfying, in principle, the data and information requirements of Annexes II and III to Directive 91/414/EEC. |
| --- | --- |

(1)

In accordance with Article 6(2) of Directive 91/414/EEC the United Kingdom received on 28 November 2001 an application from BASF for the inclusion of the active substance dimoxystrobin in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC. Commission Decision 2002/593/EC (2) confirmed that the dossier was ‘complete’ in the sense that it could be considered as satisfying, in principle, the data and information requirements of Annexes II and III to Directive 91/414/EEC.

| (2) | For this active substance, the effects on human health and the environment have been assessed, in accordance with the provisions of Article 6(2) and (4) of Directive 91/414/EEC, for the uses proposed by the applicants. The designated rapporteur Member State submitted draft assessment report concerning the substance dimoxystrobin to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) on 14 August 2003. |

For this active substance, the effects on human health and the environment have been assessed, in accordance with the provisions of Article 6(2) and (4) of Directive 91/414/EEC, for the uses proposed by the applicants. The designated rapporteur Member State submitted draft assessment report concerning the substance dimoxystrobin to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) on 14 August 2003.

| (3) | The draft assessment report has been peer reviewed by the Member States and the EFSA within its Working Group Evaluation and presented to the Commission on 10 August 2005 in the format of the EFSA Scientific Report for dimoxystrobin (3). This report has been reviewed by the Member States and the Commission within the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health and finalised on 4 April 2006 in the format of the Commission review report for dimoxystrobin. |

(3)

The draft assessment report has been peer reviewed by the Member States and the EFSA within its Working Group Evaluation and presented to the Commission on 10 August 2005 in the format of the EFSA Scientific Report for dimoxystrobin (3). This report has been reviewed by the Member States and the Commission within the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health and finalised on 4 April 2006 in the format of the Commission review report for dimoxystrobin.

| (4) | It has appeared from the various examinations made that plant protection products containing the active substance concerned may be expected to satisfy, in general, the requirements laid down in Article 5(1)(a) and (b) and Article 5(3) of Directive 91/414/EEC, in particular with regard to the uses which were examined and detailed in the Commission review report. It is therefore appropriate to include dimoxystrobin in Annex I to that Directive, in order to ensure that in all Member States the authorisations of plant protection products containing this active substance may be granted in accordance with the provisions of that Directive. |

It is therefore appropriate to include dimoxystrobin in Annex I to that Directive, in order to ensure that in all Member States the authorisations of plant protection products containing this active substance may be granted in accordance with the provisions of that Directive.

| (5) | Without prejudice to the obligations defined by Directive 91/414/EEC as a consequence of including an active substance in Annex I, Member States should be allowed a period of six months after inclusion to review existing provisional authorisations of plant protection products containing dimoxystrobin to ensure that the requirements laid down by Directive 91/414/EEC, in particular in its Article 13 and the relevant conditions set out in Annex I, are satisfied. Member States should transform existing provisional authorisations into full authorisations, amend them or withdraw them in accordance with the provisions of Directive 91/414/EEC. By derogation from the above deadline, a longer period should be provided for the submission and assessment of the complete Annex III dossier of each plant protection product for each intended use in accordance with the uniform principles laid down in Directive 91/414/EEC. |

By that date, they shall in particular verify that the conditions in Annex I to that Directive relating to dimoxystrobin are met, with the exception of those identified in part B of the entry concerning those active substances, and that the holder of the authorisation has, or has access to, a dossier satisfying the requirements of Annex II to that Directive in accordance with the conditions of Article 13.

2.   By way of derogation from paragraph 1, for each authorised plant protection product containing dimoxystrobin as either the only active substance or as one of several active substances all of which were listed in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC by 30 September 2006 at the latest, Member States shall re-evaluate the product in accordance with the uniform principles provided for in Annex VI to Directive 91/414/EEC, on the basis of a dossier satisfying the requirements of Annex III to that Directive and taking into account part B of the entry in Annex I to that Directive concerning dimoxystrobin. On the basis of that evaluation, they shall determine whether the product satisfies the conditions set out in Article 4(1)(b), (c), (d) and (e) of Directive 91/414/EEC.

Following that determination Member States shall:
