Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1761 of 25 November 2020 concerning the authorisation of L-cysteine hydrochloride monohydrate produced by fermentation with Escherichia coli KCCM 80109 and KCCM 80197 as a feed additive for all animal species |
Summary |
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: 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. In accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 an application was submitted for the authorisation of L-cysteine hydrochloride monohydrate produced by fermentation with Escherichia coli KCCM 80109 and KCCM 80197. This application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 This application concerns the authorisation of L-cysteine hydrochloride monohydrate produced by fermentation with Escherichia coli KCCM 80109 and KCCM 80197 as a feed additive for all animal species. The applicant requested this additive to be classified in the additive category 'sensory additives'. The applicant requested the feed additive to be authorised for use also in water for drinking. However, Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 does not allow the authorisation of 'flavouring compounds' for use in water for drinking. Therefore, the use of L-cysteine hydrochloride monohydrate produced by fermentation with Escherichia coli KCCM 80109 and KCCM 80197 in water for drinking should not be allowed. The fact that of L-cysteine hydrochloride monohydrate produced by fermentation with Escherichia coli KCCM 80109 and KCCM 80197 is not authorised for use as a flavouring in water for drinking does not preclude its use in compound feed administered via water.
