Having regard to Council Decision 2000/258/EC of 20 March 2000 designating a specific institute responsible for establishing the criteria necessary for standardising the serological tests to monitor the effectiveness of rabies vaccines (1), and in particular Article 3(2) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Decision 2000/258/EC designates the Agence française de sécurité sanitaire des aliments (AFSSA) in Nancy, France, as the specific institute responsible for establishing the criteria necessary for standardising the serological tests to monitor the effectiveness of rabies vaccines. The AFSSA has now been integrated into the Agence nationale de sécurité sanitaire de l'alimentation, de l'environnement et du travail (ANSES) in France.

(3) The competent authority of Brazil has submitted an application for the approval of the laboratory ‘LANAGRO/PE’ in Recife, and the ANSES has established and submitted to the Commission a favourable appraisal report dated 19 October 2016 for this laboratory.

(4) The laboratory ‘LANAGRO/PE’ in Recife should therefore be authorised to carry out serological tests to monitor the effectiveness of rabies vaccines in dogs, cats and ferrets.

of 10 May 2017

not approving PHMB (1600; 1.8) as an existing active substance for use in biocidal products for product-type 5

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2012 concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products (1), and in particular the third subparagraph of Article 89(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014 (2) establishes a list of existing active substances to be evaluated for their possible approval for use in biocidal products. That list includes PHMB (1600; 1.8).

(2) PHMB (1600; 1.8) has been evaluated for use in products of product-type 5, drinking water, as defined in Annex V to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.

(3) France was designated as evaluating competent authority and submitted the assessment report together with its recommendations on 23 November 2015.

(4) In accordance with Article 7(2) of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014, the opinion of the European Chemicals Agency was formulated on 12 October 2016 by the Biocidal Products Committee, having regard to the conclusions of the evaluating competent authority.

(5) According to that opinion, biocidal products used for product-type 5 and containing PHMB (1600; 1.8) may not be expected to satisfy the requirements laid down in Article 19(1)(b) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012. For that product-type, the scenarios evaluated in the environmental risk assessments identified unacceptable risks.

(6) It is therefore not appropriate to approve PHMB (1600; 1.8) for use in biocidal products for product-type 5.

(7) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

PHMB (1600; 1.8) (EC No: n.a., CAS No 27083-27-8 and 32289-58-0) is not approved as an active substance for use in biocidal products for product-type 5.
