 VYKONÁVACIE NARIADENIE KOMISIE (EÚ) 2015/2046
 zo 16. novembra 2015
 o neschválení Artemisia absinthium L. ako základnej látky v súlade s nariadením Európskeho parlamentu a Rady (ES) č. 1107/2009 o uvádzaní prípravkov na ochranu rastlín na trh
 (Text s významom pre EHP)
 EURÓPSKA KOMISIA,
 so zreteľom na Zmluvu o fungovaní Európskej únie,
 so zreteľom na nariadenie Európskeho parlamentu a Rady (ES) č. 1107/2009 z 21. októbra 2009 o uvádzaní prípravkov na ochranu rastlín na trh a o zrušení smerníc Rady 79/117/EHS a 91/414/EHS (1), a najmä na jeho článok 23 ods. 5 v spojení s jeho článkom 13 ods. 2,
 keďže:
 (1)
 V súlade s článkom 23 ods. 3 nariadenia (ES) č. 1107/2009 bola Komisii 26. apríla 2013 doručená od Institut Technique de l'Agriculture Biologique (ITAB) žiadosť o schválenie Artemisia absinthium L. ako základnej látky. K uvedenej žiadosti boli pripojené informácie požadované podľa článku 23 ods. 3 druhého pododseku.
 (2)
 Komisia požiadala Európsky úrad pre bezpečnosť potravín (ďalej len „úrad“) o odbornú pomoc. Úrad predložil Komisii technickú správu o dotknutej látke 30. septembra 2014 (2). Komisia predložila Stálemu výboru pre rastliny, zvieratá, potraviny a krmivá 20. marca 2015 revíznu správu (3) a návrh tohto nariadenia o neschválení Artemisia absinthium L.
 (3)
 Z dokumentácie poskytnutej žiadateľom vyplýva, že Artemisia absinthium L. spĺňa kritériá potravín podľa definície v článku 2 nariadenia Európskeho parlamentu a Rady (ES) č. 178/2002 (4). Alkoholické nápoje z druhov rodu Artemisia sú však uvedené v časti B prílohy III k nariadeniu Európskeho parlamentu a Rady (ES) č. 1334/2008 (5), v ktorej sa stanovujú maximálne množstvá určitých látok prirodzene sa vyskytujúcich v arómach a zložkách potravín s aromatickými vlastnosťami v určitých viaczložkových potravinách v stave pripravenom na konzumáciu, do ktorých sa pridávajú arómy a/alebo zložky potravín s aromatickými vlastnosťami. Podľa článku 6 nariadenia (ES) č. 1334/2008 sa vo viaczložkových potravinách uvedených v časti B nemajú prekročiť maximálne množstvá v dôsledku použitia aróm a/alebo zložiek potravín s aromatickými vlastnosťami. Druhy rodu Artemisia teda nemožno použiť ako potravinu bez kvalifikácie.
 (4)
 V technickej správe úradu boli identifikované osobitné obavy týkajúce sa expozície tujónu, absintínu a kyseline ferulovej a v dôsledku toho nebolo možné finalizovať hodnotenie rizika pre prevádzkovateľov, pracovníkov, ostatných prítomných osôb, spotrebiteľov a necieľových organizmov.
 (5)
 Komisia vyzvala žiadateľa, aby predložil svoje pripomienky k technickej správe úradu a k návrhu revíznej správy. Žiadateľ predložil svoje pripomienky, ktoré boli dôkladne preskúmané.
 (6)
 Napriek argumentom, ktoré žiadateľ uviedol, nie je možné vyvrátiť obavy týkajúce sa danej látky.
 (7)
 Z uvedeného dôvodu, ako je stanovené v revíznej správe Komisie, nebolo preukázané, že požiadavky stanovené v článku 23 nariadenia (ES) č. 1107/2009 sú splnené. Preto je vhodné neschváliť Artemisia absinthium L. ako základnú látku.
 (8)
 Toto rozhodnutie nemá vplyv na predloženie ďalšej žiadosti o schválenie Artemisia absinthium L. ako základnej látky v súlade s článkom 23 ods. 3 nariadenia (ES) č. 1107/2009.
 (9)
 Opatrenia stanovené v tomto nariadení sú v súlade so stanoviskom Stáleho výboru pre rastliny, zvieratá, potraviny a krmivá,
 PRIJALA TOTO NARIADENIE:
 Článok 1
