Such applications therefore shall continue to be treated in accordance with Article 4 of Directive 70/524/EEC. (5)  The use of the enzyme preparation of alpha-amylase and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase produced by Bacillus amyloli- quefaciens (DSM 9553) was provisionally authorised, for the first time, for chickens for fattening, by Commission Regulation (EC) No 654/2000 (%).
