THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to the 2005 Act of Accession, and in particular Article 56 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Pursuant to Article 56 of the 2005 Act of Accession, where acts of the institutions adopted prior to accession require adaptation by reason of accession, and the necessary adaptations have not been provided for in the Act of Accession or its Annexes, the necessary acts are to be adopted by the Council unless the Commission adopted the original act.
(2) Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) and establishing a European Chemicals Agency(1), was adopted prior to the accession of Bulgaria and Romania to the European Union, and requires adaptation by reason of this accession.
(3) Therefore, it is appropriate to modify the definition of phase-in substance so as to subject substances manufactured or marketed in Bulgaria and Romania before accession to the European Union to the same conditions as substances manufactured or marketed in the other Member States,
