(2) In accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, an application was submitted for a new use of a preparation of Pediococcus acidilactici CNCM MA 18/5M. That application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.

(3) The application concerns a request of a new use of a preparation of Pediococcus acidilactici CNCM MA 18/5M as a feed additive for use in water for drinking on weaned piglets, pigs for fattening, laying hens and chickens for fattening, to be classified in the additive category zootechnical additives.

(4) The use of that preparation of Pediococcus acidilactici CNCM MA 18/5M was authorised without a time limit for chickens for fattening by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1200/2005 and for pigs for fattening by Commission Regulation (EC) No 2036/2005, for 10 years for salmonids and shrimps by Commission Regulation (EC) No 911/2009, for weaned piglets by Commission Regulation (EU) No 1120/2010, for laying hens by Commission Regulation (EU) No 212/2011 and for all fish other than salmonids by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 95/2013.
