(5)  Data were submitted in support of an application for authorisation of the use of the enzyme preparation of endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase ~ produced by  Aspergillus aculeatus  (CBS 589.94) and endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced by Aspergillus oryzae (DSM 10287) for chickens for fattening and for piglets. On 20 July 2005, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) delivered an opinion on the use of this preparation which concludes that it does not present a risk for the consumer, the user, the animal category or the envi- ronment. The assessment shows that the conditions laid down in Article 9¢(1) of Directive 70/524/EEC for an authorisation of that preparation for these uses are satisfied.  Accordingly, the uses of that enzyme preparation, as specified in Annex I, should be authorised for four years.

The assessment shows that the conditions laid down in Article 3a of Directive 70/524[/EEC for such authorisation are satisfied. Accordingly, the use of that micro-organism preparation, as specified in Annex II, should be authorised without a time-limit.
