THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90 of 26 June 1990 laying down a Community procedure for the establishment of maximum residue limits of veterinary medicinal products in foodstuffs of animal origin (1), and in particular Article 2 thereof,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Medicines Agency formulated by the Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use,
Whereas:
(1) All pharmacologically active substances which are used within the Community in veterinary medicinal products intended for administration to food-producing animals should be evaluated in accordance with Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90.
(2) Flugestone acetate has been included in Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90 for ovine and caprine, for milk, for intravaginal use and for zootechnical purposes only. That substance has also been included in Annex III to that Regulation for muscle, fat, liver and kidney, for ovine and caprine species, for therapeutic and zootechnical purposes only, awaiting completion of scientific studies. These studies have now been completed and flugestone acetate should therefore be inserted in Annex I to that Regulation for the same purposes and target tissues as in Annex III.
(3) Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90 should be amended accordingly.
(4) An adequate period should be allowed before the applicability of this Regulation in order to enable Member States to make any adjustment which may be necessary in the light of this Regulation to the marketing authorisations granted in accordance with Directive 2001/82/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 November 2001 on the Community code relating to veterinary medicinal products (2).
(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Veterinary Medicinal Products,
