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_2012342EN.01002701-E0001], and in particular the first paragraph of Article 17 thereof,

Whereas:

(1) 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 [^ntr2-L_2012342EN.01002701-E0002] sets out the active substances deemed to have been approved under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009.

(2) The approvals of the active substances acetamiprid, alpha-cypermethrin, Ampelomyces quisqualis Strain: AQ 10, benalaxyl, bifenazate, bromoxynil, chlorpropham, desmedipham, etoxazole, Gliocladium catenulatum Strain: J1446, imazosulfuron, laminarin, mepanipyrim, methoxyfenozide, milbemectin, phenmedipham, Pseudomonas chlororaphis Strain: MA 342, quinoxyfen, S-metolachlor, tepraloxydim, thiacloprid, thiram and ziram will expire between 31 July 2014 and 30 November 2015. Applications have been submitted for the renewal of these active substances. As the requirements laid down in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 844/2012 of 18 September 2012 setting out the provisions necessary for the implementation of the renewal procedure for active substances as provided for in Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market [^ntr3-L_2012342EN.01002701-E0003] will apply to those active substances, it is necessary to allow sufficient time to complete the renewal procedure in accordance with that Regulation. Consequently, the approval of those active substances would be likely to expire before a decision has been taken on their renewal. It is therefore necessary to postpone the expiry of their approval periods.

(3) Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(4) In view of the aim of the first paragraph of Article 17 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009, as regards cases where no supplementary dossier in accordance with Implementing Regulation (EU) No 844/2012 is submitted within 30 months before the respective expiry date laid down in the Annex to this Regulation, the Commission will set the expiry date at the same date as before this Regulation or at the earliest date thereafter.

(5) In view of the aim of the first paragraph of Article 17 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009, as regards cases where the Commission will adopt a Regulation providing that the approval of an active substance referred to in the Annex to this Regulation is not renewed because the approval criteria are not satisfied, the Commission will set the expiry date at the same date as before this Regulation or at the date of the adoption of the Regulation providing that the approval of the active substance is not renewed, whichever date is later.

(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,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Part A of the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.

Done at Brussels, 13 December 2012.
