Commission Directive 2004/97/EC
of 27 September 2004
amending Commission Directive 2004/60/EC as regards time limits
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 91/414/EEC of 15 July 1991 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market(1), and in particular Article 6(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Directive 2004/60/EC of 23 April 2004 amending Council Directive 91/414/EEC to include quinoxyfen as active substance(2) adds that substance in Annex I to that Directive.
(2) After inclusion of a new active substance, Member States should be allowed a reasonable period to implement the provisions of Directive 91/414/EEC as regards plant protection products containing that active substance and in particular to review existing provisional authorisations and, to transform those authorisations into full authorisations, to amend them or to withdraw them in accordance with that Directive 91/414/EEC.
(3) The time limits for the implementation provided for in Directive 2004/60/EC are not in line with those for other new active substances. The approach for all new active substances under the current review phase should be harmonised.
(4) It is therefore appropriate to amend Directive 2004/60/EC accordingly.
(5) The measures provided for in this Directive are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
