(4)By Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/425note, the Commission decided not to approve the active substance asulam-sodium since it has been withdrawn by industry from the approval process under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009. The effect of that withdrawal is that asulam-sodium is banned from all use in the category ‘pesticides’, due to the fact that it has not been approved for any other use in that category. In addition, the harmonised classification of the substance under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Councilnote is sufficient evidence that it raises concerns for human health or the environment. Therefore, asulam-sodium should be added to the lists of chemicals set out in Parts 1 and 2 of Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 649/2012.
