Biocidal products for non-agricultural uses: common rules for national authorisations

The European Parliament adopted the recommendation for second reading by Mrs Kirsten JENSEN (PSE, DK) after rejecting most of the amendments tabled by its environment committee. Parliament did, however, call for the deletion of two new annexes (content unknown) which were added to the proposal during the second reading. The subject matter of these annexes was: (a) a list of active substances and the requirements relating to them approved at Community level for inclusion among low-risk biocidal products; (b) a list of basic substances and the requirements relating to them approved at Community level. �
