(1)Decoquinate (Deccox and Avi-Deccox 60G), robenidine hydrochloride (Robenz 66G) and a preparation of lasalocid A sodium (Avatec 150 G) were authorised as feed additives (‘feed additives concerned’) by Commission Implementing Regulations (EU) 2020/148^note, (EU) 2021/2094^note and (EU) 2023/1172^note.

(2)The holder of the authorisations for the feed additives concerned, Zoetis Belgium S.A., has submitted an application in accordance with Article 13(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 proposing to change the name of the holder of the authorisations for the feed additives concerned to Phibro Animal Health SA.

(3)The proposed change of the terms of the authorisations is purely administrative in nature and does not entail a new assessment of the feed additives concerned. The European Food Safety Authority was informed of the application.

(4)To allow Phibro Animal Health SA to exploit its marketing rights, it is necessary to change the terms of the authorisations concerned.

(5)Implementing Regulations (EU) 2020/148, (EU) 2021/2094 and (EU) 2023/1172 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(6)Since safety reasons do not require the immediate application of the amendments made by this Implementing Regulation, it is appropriate to allow a transitional period during which existing stocks of the feed additives concerned may be used up.

(7)The measures provided for in this Implementing Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,
