of 23 April 2010
concerning the authorisation of L-isoleucine as a feed additive for all animal species
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 of the 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,
Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provides for the authorisation of additives for use in animal nutrition and for the grounds and procedures for granting such authorisation.
(2) In accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, an application was submitted for the authorisation of the preparation set out in the Annex to this Regulation. The application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.
(3) The application concerns the authorisation of L-isoleucine produced by Escherichia coli (FERM ABP-10641) as a feed additive for all animal species, to be classified in the additive category ‘nutritional additives’.
(4) The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinion of 9 December 2009 (2) that L-isoleucine does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment, and that this preparation can be considered a source of available isoleucine for all animal species. The Authority recommends appropriate measures for user safety. 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.
(5) The assessment of L-isoleucine shows that the conditions for authorisation, as provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. Accordingly, the use of this additive should be authorised as specified in the Annex to this Regulation.
(6) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
The preparation specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category ‘nutritional additives’ and to the functional group ‘amino acids, their salts and analogues’, is authorised as an additive in animal nutrition subject to the conditions laid down in that Annex.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following 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.

Having regard to the Partnership Agreement between the members of the African, Caribbean and Pacific Group of States of the one part, and the European Community and its Member States of the other part, signed in Cotonou on 23 June 2000 (1) (hereinafter referred to as the ‘ACP-EU Partnership Agreement’), as last amended in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso on 22 June 2010 (2), and in particular Article 96 thereof,
Having regard to the Internal Agreement between the representatives of the governments of the Member States, meeting within the Council, on measures to be taken and procedures to be followed for the implementation of the ACP-EU Partnership Agreement (3), and in particular Article 3 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) By Council Decision 2011/492/EU (4), consultations with the Republic of Guinea-Bissau under Article 96 of the ACP-EU Partnership Agreement were concluded and appropriate measures, as specified in the Annex to that Decision, were taken.

(3) The essential elements cited in Article 9 of the ACP-EU Partnership Agreement continue to be violated and the current conditions in Guinea-Bissau do not ensure respect for human rights, democratic principles and the rule of law. It is therefore appropriate to extend the validity of Decision 2011/492/EU for a period of one year.
(4) However, taking into consideration the holding of peaceful, free and credible elections on 13 April 2014 and 18 May 2014, which represent a major step towards more democracy and stability, and in order to engage with and provide direct support to the democratically elected authorities in their efforts to consolidate the democratic institutions, reconcile the society and promote the socioeconomic development of Guinea Bissau, the appropriate measures set out in the Annex to Decision 2011/492/EU should be suspended.
(5) This Decision should be reviewed six months after its entry into force.
The validity of Decision 2011/492/EU and of its appropriate measures is hereby extended until 19 July 2015. However, the application of the appropriate measures is hereby suspended.
The appropriate measures shall be kept under constant review and shall be applied again should the situation in Guinea Bissau seriously deteriorate. Such measures shall, in any event, be reviewed six months after the entry into force of this Decision.
The letter in the Annex to this Decision shall be sent to the authorities of Guinea-Bissau.
This Decision shall enter into force on the date of its adoption.

Whereas the rules normally applicable in this situation, as laid down by Commission Regulation  (EEC) No 3444/90 of 27 November 1990 laying down detailed rules for granting private storage aid  for pigmeat  (7), should not ber applied in order to avoid a disproportionate penalization of  operators in the light of the very exceptional circumstances referred to above;

Securities lodged in respect of applications for private storage aid  pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 3062/92 with a view to the conclusion of private storage contracts  for which the primary requirements under the terms of Article 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 3444/90 have  not been met, shall be released for quantities not actually stored.
Notwithstanding Article 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 3444/90, if the quantity actually  stored during the contractual storage period is less than the contractual quantity, the aid shall  be paid in respect of the quantity actually stored.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following its publication in  the Official Journal of the European Communities.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all  Member States.
