L 146/14 Official Journal of the European Union 8.6.2007 COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 634/2007 of 7 June 2007 concerning the authorisation of selenomethionine produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCYC R397 as a feed additive (Text with EEA relevance) THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 September 2003 on additives for use in animal nutrition (), and in particular Article 9(2) thereof, Whereas: (1) Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provides for the author- isation of additives for use in animal nutrition and for the grounds and procedures for granting such author- isation. () In accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, an application was submitted for the author- isation of the preparation set out in the Annex to this Regulation. That application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. (3)  The application concerns authorisation of the preparation selenomethionine produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCYC R397 as a feed additive for all species, to be classified in the additive category ‘nutritional additives’. () O] L 268, 18.10.2003, p. 29. Regulation as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 378/2005 (O] L 59, 5.3.2005, p. 8). (4)  The European Food Safety Authority (the Authority) concluded in its opinion of 5 December 2006 that selenomethionine produced by Saccharomyces cere- visise NCYC R397 does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment (?). It further concluded that selenomethionine produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiee NCYC R397 does not present any other risk which would, in accordance with Article 5(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, exclude author- isation. According to that opinion, the use of that preparation can be considered as a source of bio available selenium and fulfils the criteria of a nutritional additive for all species. The opinion of the Authority recommends appropriate measures for user safety. It does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post-market monitoring. This opinion also verifies the report on the method of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Community Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. (5)  The assessment of that preparation shows that the conditions for authorisation, provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. Accordingly, the use of that preparation should be authorised, as specified in the Annex to this Regulation. (6)  The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health, HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: Article 1 The preparation specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category ‘nutritional additives’ and to the functional group ‘compounds of trace elements, is authorised as an additive in animal nutrition subject to the conditions laid down in that Annex.
