   Whereas:
   
               (1)
            
            
               Regulation (EC) No 1451/2007 establishes a list of active substances to be assessed, with a view to their possible inclusion in Annex I, IA or IB to Directive 98/8/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (2).
            
         
               (2)
            
            
               For a number of substances/product type combinations included in that list, either all participants have withdrawn or no dossier has been received within the deadlines specified in Article 9 of Regulation (EC) No 1451/2007 by the Member State designated as Rapporteur for the evaluation.
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               Consequently, and pursuant to Article 11(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1451/2007, the Commission informed the Member States thereof. That information was also made public by electronic means on 22 June 2007.
            
         
               (4)

               (5)
            
            
               A new deadline should therefore be established for the submission of dossiers for these substances and product-types.
            
         
               (6)
