Authorisation for 13 active substances extended

pesticide application

Regulation (EU) 2024/2781 extended the authorisation of 11 chemical and two biological plant protection products.

 

An application was made to extend the authorisation for these active substances in accordance with Regulation 844/2012. Due to delays in the decision-making and evaluation of the active substances for reasons not attributable to the applicants. In order to prevent the approval for these active substances from becoming invalid before a decision on the renewal of the approval can be taken, the Commission has extended the period of validity of the authorisations as follows:

If the application for renewal of the approval of an active substance is rejected, the approval shall expire on the day preceding that referred to in this Regulation or on the date of entry into force of the Regulation on non-inclusion, whichever is the later. In addition, the authorisations for the biological active substances Candida oleophila strain O and Paecilomyces fumosoroseus strain FE 9901 have been extended until 31.5.27.

 

The currently valid maximum residue levels remain unaffected by these extensions.
