COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2017/698

of 3 February 2017

amending Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014 on the work programme for the systematic examination of all existing active substances contained in biocidal products referred to in Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2012 concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products (1) and in particular Article 89(1) thereof,

Whereas:

 

(1)

Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014 (2) sets out, in its Annex II, an exhaustive list of existing active substances/product-type combinations included in the programme of review of existing biocidal active substances on 4 August 2014.

 

(2)

According to Article 14(3) of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014, any person could have notified a substance/product-type combination included in part 2 of Annex II thereto within 12 months from the entry into force of that Regulation. Since that deadline has passed, part 2 of Annex II and Article 14(3) of that Regulation have become obsolete and Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/1950 (3) has been taken not approving these substance/product type combinations.

 

(3)

Substance/product-type combinations notified pursuant to Article 14(3) and found compliant with Article 17(2) of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014 should be included in part 1 of Annex II to that Regulation and removed from part 2 of that Annex.

 

(4)

According to Article 16(4) of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014, an invitation was published where any person with an interest could notify the relevant active substance/product-type combination(s). One notification pursuant to Article 16(5) of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014 and concerning dialuminium chloride pentahydroxide for use in product-type 2, was made before the deadline and was found compliant with Article 17(2) of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014. Therefore this substance/product-type combination has to be included in part 1 of Annex II to that Regulation.

 

(5)

The Evaluating Competent Authority should be appointed pursuant to Article 81 of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 for the active substance/product-type combinations mentioned in recital 3 and 4.

 

(6)

Active substance/product-type combinations for which a decision of approval or non-approval has been adopted since 4 August 2014 are no longer in the review programme, and therefore shall no longer be referred to in part 1 of Annex II to Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014.

 

(7)

The substance/product-type combinations listed in part 2 of Annex II to Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014 that were not notified pursuant to Article 14(3) of the Review Regulation should be removed from part 2 of that Annex. Part 2 of that Annex therefore becomes obsolete and should be removed.

 

(8)

Consequently, part 1 of Annex II to Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014 should become Annex II as it is the only remaining part in Annex II and references to Article 14(3) and part 1 of Annex II need to be removed.

 

(9)

Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014 should therefore be amended accordingly,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014 is amended as follows:

 

(1)

In Article 14, paragraph 3 is deleted.

 

(2)

Article 17 is amended as...
