Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/762of 1 March 2024correcting Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/415 concerning the authorisation of malic acid, citric acid produced by Aspergillus niger DSM 25794 or CGMCC 4513/CGMCC 5751 or CICC 40347/CGMCC 5343, sorbic acid and potassium sorbate, acetic acid, sodium diacetate and calcium acetate, propionic acid, sodium propionate, calcium propionate and ammonium propionate, formic acid, sodium formate, calcium formate and ammonium formate, and lactic acid produced by Bacillus coagulans (LMG S-26145 or DSM 23965), or Bacillus smithii (LMG S-27890) or Bacillus subtilis (LMG S-27889) and calcium lactate as feed additives for all animal species(Text with EEA relevance)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 nutritionOJ L 268, 18.10.2003, p. 29., and in particular Article 9(2) thereof,Whereas:(1)The use of acetic acid, of sodium diacetate, of calcium acetate and of ammonium formate as feed additives was authorised for a 10-year period by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/415Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/415 of 11 March 2022 concerning the authorisation of malic acid, citric acid produced by Aspergillus niger DSM 25794 or CGMCC 4513/CGMCC 5751 or CICC 40347/CGMCC 5343, sorbic acid and potassium sorbate, acetic acid, sodium diacetate and calcium acetate, propionic acid, sodium propionate, calcium propionate and ammonium propionate, formic acid, sodium formate, calcium formate and ammonium formate, and lactic acid produced by Bacillus coagulans (LMG S-26145 or DSM 23965), or Bacillus smithii (LMG S-27890) or Bacillus subtilis (LMG S-27889) and calcium lactate as feed additives for all animal species (OJ L 85, 14.3.2022, p. 6). only for certain animal species, while the title of that Implementing Regulation erroneously refers to an authorisation for all animal species.(2)The use of lactic acid and of calcium lactate as feed additives was authorised for a 10-year period also by Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/415.(3)In the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/415 regarding the additives lactic acid (identified as "1a270") and calcium lactate (identified as "1a327"), in the column "Species or category of animal", the category "ruminants with a non-functional rumen" is covered by the scope of "All animal species other than pigs and ruminants with a functional rumen", while, according to the opinion of the European Food Safety Authority of 12 November 2019EFSA Journal 2019;17(12):5914., a safe dose for pre-ruminants could not be established. The additives lactic acid and calcium lactate should therefore not have been authorised for use for ruminants with a non-functional rumen.(4)In the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/415 regarding the additive calcium acetate (identified as "1a263"), an entry related to iron was wrongly added in the column "Composition, chemical formula, description, analytical method" under the heading "Characterisation of the active substance".(5)Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/415 should therefore be corrected accordingly.(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:
