ADDENDUM

to the Directive 2005/84/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 December 2005 amending for the 22nd time Council Directive 76/769/EEC on the approximation of the laws, regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States relating to restrictions on the marketing and use of certain dangerous substances and preparations (phthalates in toys and childcare articles)

(Official Journal of the European Union L 344 of 27 December 2005)

The following Statements are added:

1. Statement by the Commission concerning the guidance document

As soon as the Directive relating to restrictions on the marketing and use of phthalates in toys and childcare articles (22nd amendment of Council Directive 76/769/EEC relating to restrictions on the marketing and use of certain dangerous preparations) is adopted, the Commission, in consultation with Member States'experts responsible for the management of Directive 76/769/EEC and stakeholders, will prepare a guidance document in order to facilitate the implementation of the Directive. The document will address in particular the provisions on restrictions of certain substances in toys and childcare articles intended for children insofar as they concern the condition ‘which can be placed in the mouth’ as specified in the annex to the Directive.

In the context of this work, the aspects related to ‘accessible’ plasticized material and ‘handheld’ toys will be examined.

2. Statement concerning fragrances

The Commission confirms its intention to address the issue of fragrances in toys in the framework of the revision of Council Directive 88/378/EEC on the safety of toys. This will have the advantage to identify exactly what should be understood as fragrances, consider the appropriate measures to deal with the risks identified and ensure consistency with the other legislative provisions of the said Directive.

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,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 71/316/EEC of 26 July 1971 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to common provisions for both measuring instruments and methods of metrological control (1), and in particular the first sentence of Article 16 thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Directive 71/316/EEC makes provision, in item 3.1.1.1(a) of Annex II, for the distinguishing capital letters of Member States to be used for the EEC initial verification mark affixed on a measuring instrument and indicating that the latter conforms to the EEC requirements.

(1) Galega orientalis Lam. is a fodder plant largely grown in certain Member States and plays a significant role in improving the quality of feed for farm animals.
