Title	Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/968 concerning the renewal of the authorisation of zinc chelate of hydroxy analogue of methionine as a feed additive for all animal species, and repealing Regulation (EU) No 335/2010
Summary	Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provides for the authorisation of additives for use in animal nutrition and for the grounds and procedures for granting and renewing such authorisation. Zinc chelate of hydroxy analogue of methionine was authorised for 10 years as a feed additive for all animal species by Commission Regulation (EU) No 335/2010. In accordance with Article 14(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, an application was submitted for the renewal of the authorisation of zinc chelate of hydroxy analogue of methionine as feed additive for all animal species in the additive category 'nutritional additives'. The application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 14(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. It results from the opinion of the European Food Safety Authority ('the Authority') of 18 November 2020 that, under the proposed conditions of use, zinc chelate of hydroxy analogue of methionine does not have an adverse effect on animal health, consumer safety or the environment. The Authority also concluded for the additive a risk for the user by inhalation and that it is a skin sensitizer. 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. The proof of the efficacy of the additive, on which the initial authorisation was based, withstands in a renewal procedure. The Authority also verified the report on the method of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. The assessment of zinc chelate of hydroxy analogue of methionine shows that the conditions for authorisation, as provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. Accordingly, the authorisation of this additive should be renewed.
