Article 8
Temporary measures In a decision to phase out an active substance for which no admissible notification has been submitted, pursuant to fourth subparagraph of Article 8(2) of Directive 91/414/EC the Commission may, where additional technical evidence has been provided by a Member State demonstrating an essential need for further use of that substance and the absence of any effective alternative, prescribe a phasing out period which is sufficiently long to enable suitable alternatives to be developed.
