Article 3 

1. Member States shall in accordance with Directive 91/414/EEC, where necessary, amend or withdraw existing authorisations for plant protection products containing clopyralid, cyprodinil, fosetyl and trinexapac as active substances by 31 October 2007.By that date they shall in particular verify that the conditions in Annex I to that Directive relating to clopyralid, cyprodinil, fosetyl and trinexapac are met, with the exception of those identified in part B of the entry concerning that active substance, and that the holder of the authorisation has, or has access to, a dossier satisfying the requirements of Annex II to that Directive in accordance with the conditions of Article 13 of that Directive.
2. By way of derogation from paragraph 1, for each authorised plant protection product containing clopyralid, cyprodinil, fosetyl and trinexapac as either the only active substance or as one of several active substances all of which were listed in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC by 30 April 2007 at the latest, Member States shall re-evaluate the product in accordance with the uniform principles provided for in Annex VI to Directive 91/414/EEC, on the basis of a dossier satisfying the requirements of Annex III to that Directive and taking into account part B of the entry in Annex I to that Directive concerning clopyralid, cyprodinil, fosetyl and trinexapac respectively. On the basis of that evaluation, they shall determine whether the product satisfies the conditions set out in Article 4(1)(b), (c), (d) and (e) of Directive 91/414/EEC.Following that determination Member States shall:
(a) in the case of a product containing clopyralid, cyprodinil, fosetyl and trinexapac as the only active substance, where necessary, amend or withdraw the authorisation by 30 April 2011 at the latest;or
(b) in the case of a product containing clopyralid, cyprodinil, fosetyl and trinexapac as one of several active substances, where necessary, amend or withdraw the authorisation by 30 April 2011 or by the date fixed for such an amendment or withdrawal in the respective Directive or Directives which added the relevant substance or substances to Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC, whichever is the latest.

— the protection of non target plants and groundwater under vulnerable conditions. Conditions of authorisation should include risk mitigation measures and monitoring programmes should be initiated to verify potential groundwater contamination in vulnerable zones, where appropriate.
The concerned Member States shall request the submission of further studies to confirm the results on animal metabolism. They shall ensure that the notifiers at whose request clopyralid has been included in this Annex provide such studies to the Commission within two years from the entry into force of this Directive.

— must pay particular attention to the protection of birds, mammals and aquatic organisms. Conditions of authorisation should include risk mitigation measures, such as buffer zones.
The concerned Member States shall request the submission of further studies to confirm the risk assessment for birds and mammals and for possible presence of residues of metabolite CGA 304075 in food of animal origin. They shall ensure that the notifiers at whose request cyprodinil has been included in this Annex provide such studies to the Commission within two years from the entry into force of this Directive.
