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 1, and in particular Article 17, first subparagraph, thereof,
Whereas:
- (1) Active substances approved under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 are listed in Part B of the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 2 and active substances approved under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 as candidates for substitution are listed in Part E of that Annex.
- (2) The active substance fenpyrazamine is listed in Part B of the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 while the active substance flumetralin is listed in Part E of that Annex.
- (3) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/2592 3 extended the approval period of the active substance fenpyrazamine until 31 May 2026 and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/1757 4 extended the approval period of the active substance flumetralin until 11 May 2026, pending the remaining steps in the procedure for the renewal of the approval of those active substances.
- (4) For the active substance fenpyrazamine, on 30 July 2024 and for the active substance flumetralin, on 30 April 2024, the respective applicants confirmed that they no longer support the applications for the renewal of the approvals.
- (5) Therefore, the extension of the approval periods of these active substances is no longer justified. Consequently, a new expiry date should be set at the earliest possible date, while giving Member States sufficient time to withdraw their authorisations for the plant protection products containing those active substances.
- (6) Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 should therefore be amended accordingly.
- (7) 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:
