# Commission Regulation (EU) 2015/786 of 19 May 2015 defining acceptability criteria for detoxification processes applied to products intended for animal feed as provided for in Directive 2002/32/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (Text with EEA relevance), Article 7: Emergency situations

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

In case of an urgent need to decontaminate a large amount of feed with a detoxification process not yet assessed by the Food Safety Authority, the appropriate authority may request to the Food Safety Authority on request of a competent authority to provide within a short period of time for an assessment of the detoxification process to enable, in case of a favourable outcome, for a defined short period of time, the detoxification of specifically identified contaminated consignments. The use of this detoxification process on a wider scale for an undetermined period of time is only allowed after the Food Safety Authority has performed a comprehensive scientific assessment with favourable outcome.
