COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 900/2009
of 25 September 2009
concerning the authorisation of selenomethionine produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-3399 as a feed additive
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
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.
(2)
In accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, an application was submitted for the authorisation of the preparation set out in the Annex to this Regulation. That application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.
(3)
The application concerns authorisation of the preparation selenomethionine produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-3399 as a feed additive for all species, to be classified in the additive category ‘nutritional additives’.
(4)
The European Food Safety Authority (the Authority) concluded in its opinion of 5 March 2009 (2) that selenium enriched yeast, mainly selenomethionine, from Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-3399 does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment and the use of that preparation can be considered as a source of bio-available selenium and fulfils the criteria of a nutritional additive for all species. The Authority does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post-market monitoring. It also verifies the report on the method of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Community Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.
(5)
The assessment of that preparation shows that the conditions for authorisation, provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. Accordingly, the use of that preparation should be authorised, as specified in the Annex to this Regulation.
(6)
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The preparation specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category ‘nutritional additives’ and to the functional group ‘compounds of trace elements’, is authorised as an additive in animal nutrition subject to the conditions laid down in that Annex.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 747/93 of 17 March 1993 derogating, with regard to the granting to Portugal of the suckler cow premium, from Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 on the common organization of the market in beef and veal
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),
Whereas the achievement of the Single Market requires the abolition of all barriers to trade not only between the Member States of the Community as constituted on 31 December 1985 but also, to the greatest possible extent, between those Member States and the new Member States;
Whereas this approach means abolishing the only mechanism still protecting the Portuguese market in the beef and veal sector at this time, namely the supplementary trade mechanism licences; whereas it could consequently exert pressure on prices and the incomes of Portuguese producers; whereas appropriate support of the above incomes may be ensured by increasing for these producers for a period of three years the amount paid in respect of the suckler cow premium provided for by Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 of 27 June 1968, on the common organization of the market in beef and veal (2), and if the first impact of the abovementioned pressure is reduced by advances that the Portuguese Government would be authorized to grant; whereas the increase of the reserve laid down in Article 4f of Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 may favour the structural improvement of Portuguese production and thus its adaptation to the situation created by the elimination of the accession mechanisms,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
1. By way of derogation to Article 4b (6) of Regulation (EEC) No 805/68, the Portuguese Republic, for 1993, on the basis of national funds and in accordance with the detailed rules provided for under Article 27 of the said Regulation, may, as from the entry into force of this Regulation, grant advances equal to 50 % of the applicable suckler cow premium.
2. By way of derogation from or additional to Article 4d of Regulation (EEC) No 805/68:
- 12 000 rights in addition to those provided for in paragraph 6 of the said Article shall be added to the Portuguese national reserve,
- the suckler cow premium provided for in paragraph 7 of the said Article shall be, for Portugal, fixed for the years 1993 to 1998 as follows:
1993: ECU 160,
1994: ECU 160,
1995: ECU 160,
1996: ECU 130,
1997: ECU 130,
1998: ECU 130.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
