Commission Directive 2004/87/EC
of 7 September 2004
amending Council Directive 76/768/EEC, concerning cosmetic products, for the purpose of adapting Annex III thereto to technical progress
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 76/768/EEC of 27 July 1976 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to cosmetic products(1), and in particular Article 8(2) thereof,
After consulting the Scientific Committee on Cosmetic Products and Non-Food Products intended for Consumers,
Whereas:
(1) In April 2002, the Commission included in part 2 of Annex III to Directive 76/768/EEC 60 hair dyes under the reference numbers 1 to 60. Since more information on the safety of those hair dyes was needed in order for the Scientific Committee for Cosmetic Products and Non-Food Products intended for Consumers (SCCNFP) to finish the risk assessment of those substances, those hair dyes have been provisionally allowed to be employed in cosmetic products until 30 September 2004.
(2) In December 2002, the SCCNFP set the basic requirements to carry out a modern risk assessment of hair dyes. Following the process of consultation with the Member States and stakeholders it was agreed in December 2003 that the date of July 2005 was appropriate for the presentation to the SCCNFP of the additional information on hair dyes meeting the new requirements. Therefore, the period for which those hair dyes have been included in part 2 of Annex III to Directive 76/768/EEC has to be extended.
(3) Directive 76/768/EEC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(4) The measures provided for in this Directive are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Cosmetic Products,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

OJ L 262, 27.9.1976, p. 169. Directive as last amended by Commission Directive 2003/83/EC (OJ L 238, 25.9.2003, p. 23).
