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 nutrition, and in particular Article 9(2) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provides for the authorisation of additives for use in animal nutrition and for the grounds and procedures for granting such authorisation.

(2) In accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, an application was submitted for the authorisation of the preparation of endo-1,4-β-xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8) produced by Trichoderma reesei (MUCL 49755), endo-1,3(4)-β-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.6) produced by Trichoderma reesei (MUCL 49754) and polygalacturonase (EC 3.2.1.15) produced by Aspergillus aculeatus (CBS 589.94), as set out in the Annex. That application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.

(3) The application concerns the authorisation of the preparation set out in the Annex as a feed additive for weaned piglets, to be classified in the additive category zootechnical additives.

(4) The European Food Safety Authority (the Authority) concluded in its opinions of 8 July 2009 and 2 February 2011 that the preparation set out in the Annex, under the proposed conditions of use, does not have an adverse effect on animal health, consumer health or the environment, and that this additive has the potential to increase the body weight and feed to gain ratio in the target species. The Authority does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post-market monitoring. It also verified the report on the method of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Reference Laboratory for Feed Additives set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.

(5) The assessment of the preparation set out in the Annex shows that the conditions for authorisation, as provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. Accordingly, the use of this preparation should be authorised as specified in the Annex to this Regulation.

(6) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The preparation specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category zootechnical additives and to the functional group digestibility enhancers, is authorised as an additive in animal nutrition subject to the conditions laid down in that Annex.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States. Done at Brussels, 30 May 2011. For the Commission The President José Manuel Barroso

Endo-1,4-β-xylanase EC 3.2.1.8

Endo-1,3(4)-β-glucanase EC 3.2.1.6

Polygalacturonase EC 3.2.1.15

Additive composition Preparation of endo-1,4-β-xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8) produced by Trichoderma reesei (MUCL 49755), endo-1,3(4)-β-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.6) produced by Trichoderma reesei (MUCL 49754) and polygalacturonase (EC 3.2.1.15) produced by Aspergillus aculeatus (CBS 589.94) having a minimum activity of:

solid form:

Endo-1,4-β-xylanase: 21400 XU/g

Endo-1,3(4)-β-glucanase: 12300 BGU/g

Polygalacturonase: 460 PGLU/g.

liquid form:

Endo-1,4-β-xylanase: 10700 XU/g

Endo-1,3(4)-β-glucanase: 6150 BGU/g

Polygalacturonase: 230 PGLU/g.

Characterisation of the active substance Endo-1,4-β-xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8) produced by Trichoderma reesei, endo-1,3(4)-β-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.6) produced by Trichoderma reesei and polygalacturonase (EC 3.2.1.15) produced by Aspergillus aculeatus

Method of Analysis Characterisation of the active substances in the additive and feedingstuffs:

colorimetric method measuring water soluble dye released by action of endo-1,4-β-xylanase from dye cross-linked wheat arabinoxylan substrate,

colorimetric method measuring water soluble dye released by action of endo-1,3(4)-β-glucanase from dye cross-linked barley betaglucan substrate,

viscosimetric method based on a decrease of viscosity produced by action of polygalacturonase on the pectin-containing substrate, polymethylgalacturonic acid.

Endo-1,4-β-xylanase: 2140 XU

Endo-1,3(4)-β-glucanase: 1230 BGU

Polygalacturonase: 46 PGLU
