COMMISSION DIRECTIVE 2006/45/EC
of 16 May 2006
amending Council Directive 91/414/EEC as regards the specification of the active substance propoxycarbazone
(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 the second indent of the second subparagraph of Article 6(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
By Commission Directive 2003/119/EC (2) propoxycarbazone was included as active substance in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC.
(2)
When applying for the inclusion of propoxycarbazone its manufacturer Bayer CropScience gave a specification based on small-scale production. For large-scale production, that company now intends to modify the specification as regards purity. It has submitted data to show that the modified specification fulfils the requirements for inclusion.
(3)
Germany evaluated the information and data submitted by the company. It informed the Commission in July 2005 that it concludes that the modified specification does not cause any risks in addition to those already taken into account in the entry for propoxycarbazone in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC and in the Commission review report for that substance.
(4)
Therefore it is justified to modify the specification of propoxycarbazone.
(5)
It is therefore appropriate to amend Directive 91/414/EEC accordingly.
(6)
The measures provided for in this Directive are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,

This Directive shall enter into force on the 20th day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
