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 Regulation (EC) No 1451/2007 (2) 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 (3). That list includes lauric acid.
(2) Lauric acid has been evaluated in accordance with Article 11(2) of Directive 98/8/EC for use in product-type 19, repellents and attractants, as defined in Annex V to that Directive, which corresponds to product-type 19 as defined in Annex V to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.
(3) Germany was designated as Rapporteur Member State and submitted the competent authority report, together with a recommendation, to the Commission on 17 May 2010 in accordance with Article 14(4) and (6) of Regulation (EC) No 1451/2007.
(4) The competent authority report was reviewed by the Member States and the Commission. In accordance with Article 15(4) of Regulation (EC) No 1451/2007, the findings of the review were incorporated in an assessment report reviewed within the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products on 13 March 2014.
(5) According to that assessment report, biocidal products used for product-type 19 and containing lauric acid may be expected to satisfy the requirements laid down in Article 5 of Directive 98/8/EC, provided that certain specifications and conditions relating to its use are satisfied.
(6) It is therefore appropriate to approve lauric acid for use in biocidal products for product-type 19 subject to compliance with such specifications and conditions.
(7) Since the evaluation did not address nanomaterials, the approval should not cover such materials pursuant to Article 4(4) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.
(8) A reasonable period should be allowed to elapse before an active substance is approved, in order to permit interested parties to take the preparatory measures necessary to meet the new requirements laid down.
(9) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products,
Lauric acid shall be approved as an active substance for use in biocidal products for product-type 19, subject to the specifications and conditions set out in the Annex.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

(3) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the EAGGF Committee,
In respect of the products listed in the Annex, which, having been bought in by public intervention have entered store or been taken over by the intervention agencies between 1 October 2001 and 30 September 2002, the authorities shall depreciate their value to account for the difference between the buying-in prices and the foreseeable selling prices of the relevant products.
To establish the amount of the depreciation, the intervention agencies shall apply to the values of the products bought in every month the coefficients set out in the Annex.
The expenditure amounts determined in this way shall be notified to the Commission under the declarations established pursuant to Commission Regulation (EC) No 296/96(3).
