For the purpose of official controls, the concept of group of operators as laid down in Article 36(1) of Regulation (EU) 2018/848 consists of a specific category of operators who are farmers or operators that produce algae or aquaculture animals and who in addition may be engaged in processing, preparation or placing on the market of food or feed. Each group of operators has to establish a system for internal controls (ICS) comprising a documented set of control activities. The competent authority or, where appropriate, the control authority or control body, should be appropriately qualified to assess the ICS and carry out re-inspections on a risk based sample of the members of the group of operators in order to make a conclusion on the overall compliance of the group. Therefore, it is necessary to lay down requirements for the competence of the competent authority or, where appropriate, the control authority or control body, to assess that specific composition of operators within a group as well as the ICS, for a harmonised framework for the assessment of the ICS and for the selection of the sample of the members for the re-inspections.

Limitations imposed on mobility during the period of the pandemic had a significant impact on the use of rail passenger services. Rail freight services were also impacted but in a more limited way. Based on the data provided by Union rail infrastructure managers, the pandemic hit harder the passenger service segment and, in particular the commercial passenger service segment, with a significant reduction of its offer across all Member States, which has still not come back to its 2019 levels. Between March 2020 and February 2021, passenger services expressed in train-km decreased by 11,5 % compared to the same period 2019-20, freight services by 6,1 %. Between March 2020 and February 2021, passenger services operated under public service obligations expressed in train-km decreased by 5,9 % compared to the same period 2019-20, commercial passenger services by 33,1 %. In the fourth quarter of 2020, the passenger traffic in passenger-km decreased by 56 % and the number of passengers halved compared to the same period in 2019. That trend may have a significant impact on competition in the rail passenger markets, the realisation of a truly single European rail area and, ultimately the move towards a more sustainable transport sector with more people and goods moving by rail. The freight traffic in tonne-km increased by 5 % in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to 2019 and the amount of tonnes moved by train increased by 3 %.

The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinions of 17 March 2021 (2) , (3) and 23 June 2021 (4) that, under the proposed conditions of use, L-lysine base and L-lysine monohydrochloride produced by Corynebacterium glutamicum KCCM 80183, L-lysine monohydrochloride and L-lysine sulphate produced by Corynebacterium glutamicum CCTCC M 2015595 and L-lysine sulphate produced by Corynebacterium glutamicum KCCM 80227 do not have an adverse effect on animal health, consumer safety or the environment. For L-lysine sulphate produced by Corynebacterium glutamicum KCCM 80227, the Authority concluded that that active substance is not toxic by inhalation, not irritant to skin or eyes, and not a skin sensitiser. With respect to the safety of the user of L-lysine monohydrochloride and L-lysine sulphate produced by Corynebacterium glutamicum CCTCC M 2015595, the Authority could neither exclude a risk by inhalation, nor that the active substance might be irritant to skin or eyes, or a dermal sensitiser. Further, the Authority stated L-lysine base produced by Corynebacterium glutamicum KCCM 80183 to be hazardous by inhalation and L-Lysine monohydrochloride produced by Corynebacterium glutamicum KCCM 80183 to be hazardous by inhalation and mildly irritant to eyes. Therefore, the Commission considers that for the lysine forms produced by Corynebacterium glutamicum CCTCC M 2015595 and Corynebacterium glutamicum KCCM 80183, appropriate protective measures should be taken to prevent adverse effects on human health, in particular as regards the users of the additive. The Authority also concluded that all additives are efficacious sources of the amino acid L-lysine for all animal species and that in order to be as efficacious in ruminants as in non-ruminant species, the additives should be protected against degradation in the rumen. The Authority does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post-market monitoring. It also verified the reports on the method of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.
