The Decision provides for the expiry of the authorisation before the end of the 21-month time period if the restriction procedure is concluded earlier.\n(4)\nFollowing unforeseen difficulties relating to the conformity check carried out on the dossier in accordance with Article 69(4) of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, the restriction procedure has been delayed and will probably not conclude before spring 2016.\n(5)\nThe reasons for authorising the provisional measure remain unchanged.\n(6)\nIn order to avoid the legal uncertainty that would result from the expiry of the authorisation of the French provisional measure before the conclusion of the restriction procedure, it is necessary to extend the time period for which the provisional measure is authorised.\n(7)\nThis Decision is in accordance with the opinion of the REACH Committee,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:",
