THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty

the
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 of
European Parliament and of
the Council of 22 September
2003 on additives for use in animal nutrition (1), and in
particular Article 9(2) thereof,

(5)

Whereas:

Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provides for the author­
isation of additives for use in animal nutrition and for
the grounds and procedures for granting such authoris­
ation.

In accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No
1831/2003, an application was submitted for the auth­
orisation of the preparation set out in the Annex. That
application was accompanied by the particulars and
documents required under Article 7(3) of that Regulation.

The application concerns the authorisation of a new use
of the preparation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCYC Sc47
as a feed additive for dairy buffaloes, to be classified in
the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’.

New data were submitted in support of an application
for authorisation for dairy buffaloes. The European Food
Safety Authority (hereinafter the Authority) concludes in
its opinion of 21 October 2008 (11) that Saccharomyces
cerevisiae NCYC Sc47, as produced by the applicant
Société Industrielle Lesaffre, can be presumed safe for
the target species, consumers and the wider environment.
In addition, it concludes that its use with dairy buffaloes
is not expected to introduce any additional hazards for
users. According to that opinion, that preparation can
produce a significant effect on increasing milk protein
content and its use does not have any treatment-related
adverse effects on this additional animal category. The
Authority does not consider that there is a need for
specific requirements of post market monitoring. It also
verified the report on the method of analysis of the feed
additive in feed submitted by the Community Reference
Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.
