THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2012 concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products [^ntr1-L_202602252EN.000101-E0001], and in particular Article 14(5) thereof,

After consulting the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products,

Whereas:

• (1) Cis-tricos-9-ene was included in Annex I to Directive 98/8/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council [^ntr2-L_202602252EN.000101-E0002] as an active substance for use in biocidal products of product-type 19. Pursuant to Article 86 of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, it is therefore deemed approved under that Regulation subject to the requirements set out in Annex I to Directive 98/8/EC.

• (2) On 6 April 2023, an application was submitted in accordance with Article 13(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 for the renewal of the approval of cis-tricos-9-ene for use in biocidal products of product-type 19 (‘the application’). The application was evaluated by the competent authority of Austria.

• (3) As the approval of cis-tricos-9-ene was to expire on 30 September 2024, Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2024/1283 [^ntr3-L_202602252EN.000101-E0003] postponed that expiry date to 31 March 2027, in order to allow sufficient time for the examination of the application.

• (4) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2026/2247 [^ntr4-L_202602252EN.000101-E0004] renewed the approval of cis-tricos-9-ene for use in biocidal products of product-type 19, subject to the conditions in the Annex to that Regulation, including a new expiry date of approval. Therefore, it is appropriate to repeal Implementing Decision (EU) 2024/1283,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Implementing Decision (EU) 2024/1283 is repealed.

Article 2

This Decision shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
