Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

(2) According to the hair dye strategy, published in the internet, it was agreed with the Member States and stakeholders that the date of July 2005 would be appropriate for the presentation to the Scientific Committee on Consumer Products (SCCP) of the additional information on the above hair dyes.

Definitive regulation of those hair dyes will be considered after the appropriate procedures are carried out. Such definitive regulation and its implementation into the laws of Member States will not be possible before 31 August 2006. Therefore, their provisional use in cosmetic products under the restrictions and conditions laid down in Annex III, Part 2 should be prolonged until 31 August 2006.
