         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2020/1379
         of 1 October 2020
         concerning the authorisation of L-cystine produced by Pantoea ananatis NITE BP-02525 as a feed additive 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 nutrition (1), 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 L-cystine produced by Pantoea ananatis NITE BP-02525 as a feed additive in feed and water for drinking for all animal species. 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 L-cystine produced by Pantoea ananatis NITE BP-02525 as a feed additive for all animal species to be classified in the additive category ‘nutritional additives’, functional group ‘amino acids, their salts and analogues’, and in the additive category ‘sensory additives’, functional group ‘flavouring compounds’.

                     (4)

                     The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinion of 28 January 2020 (2) that, under the proposed conditions of use, L-cystine produced by Pantoea ananatis NITE BP-02525 does not have an adverse effect on animal health, consumers health or the environment, and that it is slightly irritating by inhalation. Therefore, the Commission considers that appropriate protective measures should be taken to prevent adverse effects on human health, in particular as regards the users of the additive. Moreover, the Authority stated that the supplementation with L-cystine produced by fermentation with Pantoea ananatis NITE BP-02525 should respect the requirements for sulphur-containing amino acids. Therefore, a respective labelling provision should be established. The Authority also concluded that the additive may be considered efficacious to contribute to the requirements for sulphur-containing amino acids in all animal species and that for the supplemental L-cystine to be fully efficacious in ruminants, it should be protected against degradation in the rumen. The Authority expressed in its opinion a concern over potential nutritional imbalances of when L-cystine is administered as amino acid via water for drinking. However, no maximum content for L-cystine is proposed by the Authority. Thus, in the case of supplementation of feed and water for drinking with L-cystine as amino acid, it is appropriate to take into account the dietary supply with all essential and conditionally essential amino acids.

                     (5)

                     As regards the use as flavouring, the Authority states that no further demonstration of efficacy is necessary when used at the recommended dose. The use of L-cystine as flavouring compound is not authorised in water for drinking. At the recommended dose, L-cystine as flavouring compound is unlikely to pose any concern. The fact that the use of the L-cystine is not authorised as flavouring in water for drinking does not preclude its use in compound feed which is administered via water.

                     (6)

                     Restrictions and conditions should be provided for to allow for a better control of L-cystine as flavouring compound. For L-cystine, recommended contents should be indicated on the label of the additive. Where such contents are exceeded, certain information should be indicated on the label of premixtures.

                     (7)

                     The Authority does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post-market monitoring. It also verified the reports on the method of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.

                     (8)

                     The assessment of L-cystine 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 additive should be authorised as specified in the Annex to this Regulation.

                     (9)

                     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:

                           As a member of the CEC college, she is responsible for the misconduct of the 2020 presidential electoral process, its non‐compliance with basic international standards of fairness and transparency and its falsification of election results.
                           The CEC and its college have, in particular, organised the dismissal of some opposition candidates on spurious grounds and placed disproportionate restrictions on observers in polling stations. The CEC has also ensured that the election commissions under its supervision are composed in a biased manner.’

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2020/1390
         of 28 September 2020
         correcting Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/914 approving non-minor amendments to the specification for a name entered in the register of protected designations of origin and protected geographical indications (‘Brie de Meaux’ (PDO))
         THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
         Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
         Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 November 2012 on quality schemes for agricultural products and foodstuffs (1), and in particular Article 52(2) thereof,
         Whereas:

                     (1)

                     Pursuant to the first subparagraph of Article 53(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012, the Commission has examined France’s application for the approval of amendments to the specification for the protected designation of origin ‘Brie de Meaux’, registered under Commission Regulation (EC) No 1107/96 (2).

                     (2)

                     By letter of 26 September 2018, the French authorities notified the Commission that a transitional period under Article 15(4) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012, ending on 31 December 2022, had been granted to operators established on their territory who meet the conditions laid down in that Article pursuant to the Order of 29 August 2018 on amendments to the specification for the protected designation of origin ‘Brie de Meaux’, published on 5 September 2018 in the Official Journal of the French Republic.

                     (3)

                     The operators concerned, who had been legally marketing ‘Brie de Meaux’ continuously for at least 5 years before the application was submitted, had lodged an objection as part of the national opposition procedure. One operator objected to the following provision: ‘The straw is stored under shelter’. Two operators objected to the following provision: ‘During the permanent stabling period, the use of straw bedding is compulsory with at least 0,5 kg of straw being added on average per lactating dairy cow per day if a cubicle system is used and 5 kg of straw being added on average per lactating dairy cow per day if open stables are used’. Two operators objected to the following provisions: ‘During the permanent stabling period, the use of straw bedding is compulsory with at least 0,5 kg of straw being added on average per lactating dairy cow per day if a cubicle system is used and 5 kg of straw being added on average per lactating dairy cow per day if open stables are used’; ‘The amount of concentrated feed provided may not exceed 2 000 kg of dry matter per lactating dairy cow, averaged over a year’; and ‘Over a year, the hay fed to the milk herd must be supplied from the holding and the geographical area as follows: from the holding: feed originating in the geographical area and supplied by the holding must account for at least 60 % of the dry matter of the herd’s total ration, averaged over a year; from the geographical area: the proportion of the feed originating in the geographical area of production must account for at least 85 % of the dry matter of the dairy herd’s total ration’. Seven operators objected to the following provisions: ‘The amount of concentrated feed provided may not exceed 2 000 kg of dry matter per lactating dairy cow, averaged over a year’ and ‘Over a year, the hay fed to the milk herd must be supplied from the holding and the geographical area as follows: from the holding: feed originating in the geographical area and supplied by the holding must account for at least 60 % of the dry matter of the herd’s total ration, averaged over a year; from the geographical area: the proportion of the feed originating in the geographical area of production must account for at least 85 % of the dry matter of the dairy herd’s total ration’. One operator objected to the following provision: ‘The amount of concentrated feed provided may not exceed 2 000 kg of dry matter per lactating dairy cow, averaged over a year’. One operator objected to the following provisions: ‘The straw is stored under shelter’ and ‘The pasture area per dairy cow is at least 20 ares’. One operator objected to the following provision: ‘The pasture area per dairy cow is at least 20 ares’.

                     (4)

                     The operators concerned are: GAEC de la Gironde (SIRET: 34028683000013), GAEC Reine Pré (SIRET: 39266778800013), EARL de la Mardelle (SIRET: 38514961200017), GAEC Vaucher (SIRET: 38159700400013), GAEC Bruggeman (SIRET: 383 943 610 000 14), EARL les Bordes (SIRET: 34236864400015), SCL du Versant Laiteux (SIRET: 49225855300014), GAEC des Butteaux (SIRET: 38773948500010), GAEC Blondeau Welvaert (SIRET: 32576392800018), EARL de la Prairie (SIRET: 49773714800013), GAEC Patoux (SIRET: 38008216400019), EARL Neret Guedrat (SIRET: 38249036500014), Gérard Houdard (SIRET: 39226686200011), EARL Mignon père et fils (SIRET: 49778394400018), EARL de la fontaine aux poissons (SIRET: 33522117200018).

                     (5)

                     Since the amendments in question are not minor within the meaning of Article 53(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012, the Commission published the amendment application in the Official Journal of the European Union as required by Article 50(2)(a) of that Regulation (3).

                     (6)

                     As no statement of opposition under Article 51 of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012 has been received by the Commission, the amendments to the specification should be approved.

                     (7)

                     On 25 June 2020, the Commission approved the amendments by adopting Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/914, published in the Official Journal of the European Union (4), as required by Article 52(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012.

                     (8)

                     Following that publication, it emerged that Regulation (EU) 2020/914 did not provide for a transitional period in accordance with Article 15(4) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012.

                     (9)

                     Regulation (EU) 2020/914 therefore needs to be corrected by this Regulation in order to include a transitional period,

               HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

            Article 1
            The amendments to the specification published in the Official Journal of the European Union regarding the name ‘Brie de Meaux’ (PDO) are hereby approved.

            Article 2
            The protection provided under Article 1 is subject to the transitional period granted by France under Article 15(4) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012 to operators meeting the conditions laid down in that Article, pursuant to the Order of 29 August 2018 on amendments to the specification for the protected designation of origin ‘Brie de Meaux’ published on 5 September 2018 in the Official Journal of the French Republic.

            Article 3
            This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of 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.
