COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2024/1398 of 14 March 2024
Ensures the continuation of the work program for the systematic review of all existing active substances used in biocidal products, initiated in accordance with Article 16(2) of Directive 98/8/EC of the European Parliament and Council.
The work program to be implemented is planned for 31 December of 2024, however, its implementation is significantly delayed due to member state resources, emerging technical issues and the development of guidelines, and the introduction of new scientific criteria created to determine endocrine-disrupting properties.
Given that the work program will not be implemented until 31 December 2024, it is necessary to extend its duration for 2030, which the Commission considers appropriate.
