Authorisations granted by these Regulations are valid for a period of ten years in accordance with Article 9(7) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 (EUR 2003/1831). This is subject to Article 14(4) of that Regulation, which provides for an extension of the authorisation period in certain circumstances where an application for renewal has been submitted.

Part 3 (regulation 5) is made in exercise of powers in the Agriculture Act 1970 (1970 c. 40). Regulation 5 amends Commission Regulation (EU) 2020/354 establishing a list of intended uses of feed intended for particular nutritional purposes, etc. An amendment is made to an essential nutritional characteristic for the lawful marketing of feed intended for use for the reduction of the risk of milk fever and subclinical hypocalcemia.

Regulation 6 amends certain instruments containing authorisations for the feed additive Bacillus velezensis (DSM 15544). The authorisations are modified to update the name of the authorisation holder, and to update the name of the bacterial strain Bacillus velezensis (formerly Bacillus subtilis C-3102).

Regulation 6(1) amends Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/897 concerning the authorisation of a preparation of Bacillus subtilis (C-3102) (DSM 1544) as a feed additive for laying hens and ornamental fish, etc., to remove the authorisation for Bacillus velezensis (DSM 15544) in relation to laying hens. That authorisation is superseded by, and consolidated within, the authorisation contained in Schedule 7.

Regulation 7 amends Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/804 concerning the renewal of the authorisation of organic form of selenium produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-3060 and of selenomethionine produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCYC R397 as feed additives for all animal species, etc., which contains an authorisation for the feed additive selenised yeast produced by fermentation with Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-3060, inactivated, with the identification number 3b810. The authorisation is modified in relation to the permitted selenium content of the additive, and to introduce a requirement in relation to the dusting potential of the additive. See regulation 12 for transitional provision.

Regulation 8 amends a number a instruments to update the name of the authorisation holder.

Regulations 9 and 10 make minor consequential amendments.

Regulation 11 makes provision to remove the authorisation in relation to butylated hydroxyanisole as a feed additive for cats as an existing product under Article 10 of EUR 2003/1831. To remain on the market as feed additive for cats, the additive must comply with the conditions of the new authorisation contained in Schedule 11 to these Regulations. Regulation 13 makes transitional provision to allow existing products (that cannot comply with the new authorisation) produced and labelled within specified periods to continue to be markets and used until stocks are exhausted.

Part 5 (regulations 11 to 17) of these Regulations contains transitional provisions in relation to feed additive authorisations that are modified or renewed by the Regulations. The transitional provisions allow the continued production and labelling of specified feed additives and products containing them, for limited time periods, under the conditions of authorisation applicable immediately before these Regulations come into force. Products produced and labelled within the transitional periods may be marketed and used until stocks are exhausted.

Regulation 18 and Schedule 21 revoke, in relation to England, assimilated direct legislation that contain previous authorisations for feed additives now authorised by Schedules 2 to 7, 11, 18 and 19.

Hard copies of the documents in the Schedules are available for inspection at the Food Standards Agency, Food House, Kings Pool, 1-2 Peasholme Green, York YO1 7PR following a written request to that address or to FeedAdditives@food.gov.uk.

This Schedule is a new authorisation of a substance that has, prior to these Regulations, been on the market as an existing product for the purposes of Article 10 of Regulation (EC) 1831/2003. Prior to IP completion day, an application was submitted to the European Commission, pursuant to Article 10(2) of Regulation (EC) 1831/2003, for the re-evaluation of butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) as a feed additive for all animal species. The applicant later withdrew the application with regard to cats. BHA was re-evaluated and was subsequently authorised as a feed additive for all species except cats under Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1399. Subject to regulation 12 of these Regulations, BHA as a feed additive for cats as an existing product must (unless it complies with the conditions of new authorisation in this Schedule) be withdrawn from the market.
