(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 13(3) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Miyarisan Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd has submitted an application in accordance with Article 13(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 proposing to change the name of its EU representative of the holder of the authorisation stated in Commission Regulation (EC) No 903/2009 (2) and Commission Implementing Regulations (EU) No 373/2011 (3), (EU) No 374/2013 (4) and (EU) No 1108/2014 (5).

(2) The applicant claims that Huvepharma NV Belgium has become the new representative for Miyarisan Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd for the feed additive 4b1830 preparation of Clostridium butyricum FERM-BP 2789 with effect from 12 January 2017. The applicant has submitted relevant data supporting its request.

(3) The proposed change of the representative of the holder of the authorisation is purely administrative in nature and does not entail a fresh assessment of the additives concerned. The European Food Safety Authority was informed of the application.

(4) In order to allow Miyarisan Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd represented by Huvepharma NV Belgium to exploit its marketing rights, it is necessary to change the conditions of the respective authorisations. Regulation (EC) No 903/2009, Implementing Regulations (EU) No 373/2011, (EU) No 374/2013 and (EU) No 1108/2014 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(5) Since safety reasons do not require the immediate application of the amendments provided for by this Regulation to Regulation (EC) No 903/2009, Implementing Regulations (EU) No 373/2011, (EU) No 374/2013 and (EU) No 1108/2014, it is appropriate to provide for a transitional period during which existing stocks may be used up.

(6) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plant, Animals, Food and Feed,
