COMMISSION DECISION of 13 July 1995 concerning the withdrawal of authorizations for plant  protection products containing ferbam or azinphos-ethyl as active substances (95/276/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92 of 11 December 1992 laying down the  detailed rules for the implementation of the first stage of the programme of work referred to in  Article 8 (2) of Council Directive 91/414/EEC concerning the placing of plant protection products  on the market  (1), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 491/95  (2), and in particular Article 6 (5)  thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 933/94  (3), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 491/95, has  laid down the active substances of plant protection products and designated the rapporteur Member  States for the implementation of Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92;
Whereas ferbam and azinphos-ethyl were two of the 90 active substances covered by the first stage  of the work programme provided for in Article 8 (2) of Council Directive 91/414/EEC  (4);
Whereas for these two substances the designated rapporteur Member States have informed the  Commission that the notifiers concerned informed them formally that they will not submit the  information required pursuant to Article 6 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92 to support the  inclusion of an active substance in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC; whereas no request was made  for granting a new time limit;
Whereas no Member State has informed the Commission of its wish to secure the inclusion of either  of these substances in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC;
Whereas, therefore, it has to be considered that the data required for re-evaluation of these  substances will not be submitted in the framework of the work programme and that therefore an  evaluation of these substances is not possible in this framework; whereas, consequently, a decision  should be taken with the effect that current authorizations for plant protection products  containing these active substances are withdrawn;
Whereas this Decision does not exclude that in future ferbam and azinphos-ethyl may be evaluated in  the framework of the proceedings for new active substances provided for in Article 6 of Directive  91/414/EEC;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the  Standing Committee on Plant Health,
