THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market and repealing Council Directives 79/117/EEC and 91/414/EEC [^ntr1-L_2011292EN.01000101-E0001], and in particular Article 20 thereof,

Whereas:

(1) The active substance cinidon-ethyl was included in Annex I to Council Directive 91/414/EEC of 15 July 1991 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market [^ntr2-L_2011292EN.01000101-E0002] for a period expiring on 30 September 2012.

(2) To enable applicants to prepare their applications and to enable the Commission to evaluate and decide upon such applications, that inclusion was extended until 31 December 2015 by Commission Directive 2010/77/EU of 10 November 2010 amending Council Directive 91/414/EEC as regards the expiry dates for inclusion in Annex I of certain active substances [^ntr3-L_2011292EN.01000101-E0003].

(3) In accordance with Article 78(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 that substance was included in Part A of the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 of 25 May 2011 implementing Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the list of approved active substances [^ntr4-L_2011292EN.01000101-E0004] and is to be deemed to have been approved under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009.

(4) The Commission did not, however, receive any applications for the active substance concerned and the time period for the submission of such applications, as provided for in Article 4(1) of Commission Regulation (EU) No 1141/2010 of 7 December 2010 laying down the procedure for the renewal of the inclusion of a second group of active substances in Annex I to Council Directive 91/414/EEC and establishing the list of those substances [^ntr5-L_2011292EN.01000101-E0005], has expired.

(5) Consequently, the approval of that active substance should not be renewed and it should be removed from Part A of the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011, as from the date on which its approval would have expired had it not been extended by Directive 2010/77/EU.

(6) This Regulation does not prejudice the submission of an application for this substance pursuant to Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009.

(7) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
