The first paragraph no longer lists disposal alongside making available on the market and use as one of the activities for which a period of grace is granted.
Correspondingly, the second paragraph's additional 180-day period is described as covering only the use of existing stocks, with the reference to disposal removed.

Article 52
Period of grace
Notwithstanding Article 89, where the competent authority or, in the case of a biocidal product authorised at Union level, the Commission, cancels or amends an authorisation or decides not to renew it, it shall grant a period of grace for the disposal, making available on the market and use of existing stocks, except in cases where continued making available on the market or use of the biocidal product would constitute an unacceptable risk to human health, animal health or the environment.
The period of grace shall not exceed 180 days for the making available on the market and an additional maximum period of 180 days for the disposal and use of existing stocks of the biocidal products concerned.
