Amendment 91 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 18
(18) Where a CE marked fertilising product contains a substance or mixture within the meaning of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, the safety of its constituent substances for the intended use should be established through registration pursuant to that Regulation. The information requirements should ensure that the safety of the intended use of the CE marked fertilising product is demonstrated in a manner comparable to that achieved through other regulatory regimes for products intended for use on arable soil or crops, notably Member States’ national fertiliser legislation and Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009. Therefore, where the actual quantities placed on the market are lower than 10 tonnes per company per year, the information requirements determined by Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 for the registration of substances in quantities of 10 to 100 tonnes should exceptionally apply as a condition for making available pursuant to this Regulation.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 54
(54) The Commission should, by means of implementing acts, determine whether measures taken by Member States in respect of non-compliant CE marked fertilising products are justified or not. Since those acts will relate to the question whether national measures are justified, there is no need for the acts to be subject to control by the Member States.deleted

(56) Furthermore, it should be possible to react immediately to new findings regarding the conditions for CE marked fertilising products to be sufficiently effective and to new risk assessments regarding human, animal or plant health, safety or the environment. For that purpose, the power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty should be delegated to the Commission to amend the requirements applicable to various categories of CE marked fertilising products.Commission should be able to take decisions in conjunction with the European Parliament and the Council;

Amendment 117 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 61
(61) Since the objective of this Regulation, namely is to guarantee the functioning of the internal market while ensuring that CE marked fertilising products on the market fulfil the requirements providing for a high level of protection of human, animal, and plant health, safety and the environment, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States but can rather, by reason of its scale and effects, be better achieved at Union level, the Union may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty on European Union. In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Regulation does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve that objective,

(8a) Account should also be taken of contamination from fertilisers produced from animal by-products, through medicaments administered to animals. These medicaments, notably antibiotics and anabolics, and their residue may damage the environment during fertiliser spreading, and be harmful to public health when found in ground water or foods exposed to fertilisers. Studies should be conducted therefore on the traceability and breakdown of molecules of this kind in fertilisers produced from animal by- products.
