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 13(3) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Kaesler Nutrition GmbH has submitted an application in accordance with Article 13(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 proposing to change the name of the holder of the authorisation stated in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/329 ².

(2) Lohmann Animal Nutrition GmbH, the holder of the authorisation for the feed additive 6-phytase, changed its business name into ‘Kaesler Nutrition GmbH’ with effect from 3 July 2017. The applicant has submitted relevant data supporting its request.

(3) The proposed change of the holder of the authorisation is purely administrative in nature and does not entail a fresh assessment of the additives concerned. The European Food Safety Authority was informed of the application.

(4) In order to enable Kaesler Nutrition GmbH to exploit its marketing rights, it is necessary to change the name of the holder in the authorisation. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/329 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(5) Since safety reasons do not require the immediate application of the amendments provided for by this Regulation, it is appropriate to provide for a transitional period during which the feed additive 6-phytase, as well as premixtures and compound feed containing that feed additive, which are in conformity with the provisions applying before the date of entry into force of this Regulation may continue to be placed on the market and used until the existing stocks are exhausted.

(6) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
