of 4 December 2007

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Directive 98/8/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 February 1998 concerning the placing of biocidal products on the market (1), and in particular Article 16(2) thereof,

Whereas:

 

(1)

Pursuant to Directive 98/8/EC, Member States may only authorise the placing on the market of biocidal products containing active substances included in Annex I, IA or IB to that Directive. However, under the transitional measures provided for in Article 16(1) of Directive 98/8/EC Member States may allow the placing on the market of biocidal products containing active substances not listed in Annex I, IA or IB to Directive 98/8/EC which were already on the market on 14 May 2000, hereinafter ‘existing active substances’. Pursuant to paragraph 2 of that same Article, a 10-year programme of work is to be carried out for the review of all existing active substances. This programme of work was intended to identify the existing active substances and determine those to be evaluated under the review programme with a view to their possible inclusion in Annex I, IA or IB to Directive 98/8/EC.

 

(2)

The initial phase of the programme was laid down in Commission Regulation (EC) No 1896/2000 of 7 September 2000 on the first phase of the programme referred to in Article 16(2) of Directive 98/8/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on biocidal products (2).

 

(3)

Under Regulation (EC) No 1896/2000, existing active substances for use in biocidal products had to be identified, and those to be evaluated with a view to their possible inclusion in Annex I, IA or IB to Directive 98/8/EC in one or more product types had to be notified no later than 28 March 2002.

 

(4)

Commission Regulation (EC) No 2032/2003 of 4 November 2003 on the second phase of the 10-year work programme referred to in Article 16(2) of Directive 98/8/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the placing of biocidal products on the market, and amending Regulation (EC) No 1896/2000 (3) established a list of existing active substances. That list covered active substances that had been identified in accordance with Article 3(1) or Article 5(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1896/2000 or in respect of which equivalent information had been submitted in a notification in accordance with Article 4(1) of that Regulation.

 

(5)

Regulation (EC) No 2032/2003 also established, in Annex II, an exhaustive list of existing active substances to be evaluated under the review programme. That list covered active substances in respect of which at least one notification had been accepted in accordance with Article 4(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1896/2000 or in which a Member State had expressed an interest in accordance with Article 5(3) of that Regulation. That list specified the product types concerned.

 

(6)

Regulation (EC) No 2032/2003 allowed for a number of active substances or substance/product type combinations that were not originally covered by the review programme, to be examined on the same conditions as the active substances evaluated under the review programme, provided that interested operators submitted complete dossiers before 1 March 2006.

 

(7)

Article 4(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2032/2003 set 1 September 2006 as the date from which products containing active substances not examined under the review...
