THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Directive 2000/53/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 September 2000 on end-of-life vehicles(1), and in particular Article 8(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Under Directive 2000/53/EC, the Commission is to establish component and material coding standards, to be used by producers and material and equipment manufacturers, in particular to facilitate the identification of those components and materials which are suitable for reuse and recovery.
(2) It would be appropriate to establish further coding standards on the basis of the practical experience gained in the recycling and recovery of end-of-life vehicles.
(3) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee referred to in Article 11 of Directive 2000/53/EC,
Without prejudice to Article 3(3) of Directive 2000/53/EC, Member States shall take the necessary measures to ensure that producers, in concert with material and equipment manufacturers, use the nomenclature of ISO component and material coding standards referred to in the Annex to this Decision for the labelling and identification of components and materials of vehicles.
Two years after the entry into force of this Decision, on the basis of the practical experience gained in the recycling and recovery of end-of-life vehicles, the present Decision shall be reviewed in order to establish, if necessary, component and material coding standards for other materials.
This Decision shall apply from 1 July 2003.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 482/2013
of 24 May 2013
amending Regulation (EU) No 206/2010 laying down lists of third countries, territories or parts thereof authorised for the introduction into the European Union of certain animals and fresh meat and the veterinary certification requirements
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Directive 2002/99/EC of 16 December 2002 laying down the animal health rules governing the production, processing, distribution and introduction of products of animal origin for human consumption (1), and in particular the introductory phrase of Article 8, the first subparagraph of Article 8(1) and (4) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EU) No 206/2010 (2) lays down the veterinary certification requirements for the introduction into the Union of certain consignments of live animals or fresh meat. It also lays down the lists of third countries, territories or parts thereof from which those consignments may be introduced into the Union.
(2) Regulation (EU) No 206/2010 provides that consignments of fresh meat intended for human consumption are to be imported into the Union only if they come from the third countries, territories or parts thereof listed in Part 1 of Annex II to that Regulation for which there is a model veterinary certificate corresponding to the consignment concerned listed in that Part.
(3) Four parts of the territory of Botswana are listed in Part 1 of Annex II to Regulation (EU) No 206/2010, as regions from which imports of certain fresh meat into the Union are authorised. Those regions consist of a number of veterinary disease control zones.
(4) In March 2013, a Commission audit was carried out in Botswana in order to evaluate the animal health control system in place, in particular as regards controls concerning foot-and-mouth disease. The audit found that the risk of introduction of the foot-and-mouth disease virus into the veterinary disease control zones 6 and 4a of the territory of that third country cannot be considered negligible.
(5) Surveillance identified the presence of the foot–and-mouth disease virus in goats and wild game in the intensive surveillance zone in veterinary disease control zone 6. That intensive surveillance zone is not authorised for export of fresh meat to the Union. However, the proximity of that area to the authorised part of veterinary disease control zone 6 from which such exports are authorised constitutes a risk.
(6) The veterinary disease control zone 4a borders other areas of Botswana from which imports of fresh meat into the Union are not authorised. The Commission audit identified shortcomings as regards the animal health surveillance in veterinary disease control zone 4a. In addition, a number of shortcomings were identified as regards the delimitation of that zone from the areas from which imports of fresh meat into the Union are not authorised. Those shortcomings constitute a non-negligible risk as regards foot-and-mouth disease.
(7) The Commission audit also found that the system to verify the effectiveness of official controls is well organised in the rest of the territory of Botswana and it has shown improvements compared with the situation reported in the previous audit in 2011.
(8) In view of the risk of introduction of foot-and-mouth disease through the import of fresh meat from species susceptible to that disease from veterinary disease control zones 6 and 4a of Botswana into the Union, the authorisation to export into the Union such fresh meat from those veterinary disease control zones should however be suspended.
(9) Regulation (EU) No 206/2010 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(10) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
In Part 1 of Annex II to Regulation (EU) No 206/2010, the entry for Botswana is replaced by the following:
‘BW – Botswana BW-0 Whole country EQU, EQW

2013/193/EU: Council Implementing Decision of 22 April 2013 authorising the French Republic to apply differentiated levels of taxation to motor fuels in accordance with Article 19 of Directive 2003/96/EC

25.4.2013 EN Official Journal of the European Union L 113/15
COUNCIL IMPLEMENTING DECISION
of 22 April 2013
authorising the French Republic to apply differentiated levels of taxation to motor fuels in accordance with Article 19 of Directive 2003/96/EC
(2013/193/EU)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Directive 2003/96/EC of 27 October 2003 restructuring the Community framework for the taxation of energy products and electricity (1), and in particular Article 19 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) Council Implementing Decision 2011/38/EU (2) authorised the French Republic (hereinafter referred to as ‘France’) to apply, for a period of three years, differentiated levels of taxation to gas oil and unleaded petrol for the purposes of an administrative reform involving the decentralisation of certain specific powers previously exercised by central government. Implementing Decision 2011/38/EU expired on 31 December 2012.
(2) By letter dated 10 February 2012, France requested authorisation to continue to apply differentiated rates of taxation under the same conditions for a further period of six years after 31 December 2012.
(3) Implementing Decision 2011/38/EU was adopted on the basis that the measure requested by France met the requirements set out in Article 19 of Directive 2003/96/EC. In particular, it was considered that the measure would not hinder the proper functioning of the internal market. It was also considered that it was in conformity with the relevant Union policies.
(4) The national measure is part of a policy designed to increase administrative effectiveness by improving the quality and reducing the cost of public services, as well as a policy of subsidiarity. It offers regions an additional incentive to improve the quality of their administration in a transparent fashion. In this respect, Implementing Decision 2011/38/EU requires that the reductions be linked to the socioeconomic circumstances of the regions in which they are applied. Consequently, a number of regions with either lower than average gross domestic product or higher than average unemployment have applied lower rates. Overall, the national measure is based on specific policy considerations.
(5) The tight limits set for the differentiation of rates on a regional basis as well as the exclusion of gas oil used for commercial purposes from the measure imply that the risk of competitive distortions in the internal market is very low. Moreover, the application of the measure so far has shown a strong tendency on behalf of regions to levy the maximum rate allowable, which has further decreased any potential for competitive distortions.
(6) No obstacles to the proper functioning of the internal market have been reported as regards, more particularly, the circulation of the products in question in their capacity as products subject to excise duty.
(7) When originally requested, the national measure had been preceded by a tax increase equal to the margin for regional reductions. Against that background and in light of the conditions of the authorisation as well as experience gathered, the national measure does not appear to be in conflict with Union energy and climate change policies.
(8) It follows from Article 19(2) of Directive 2003/96/EC that each authorisation granted thereunder must be strictly limited in time. Moreover, the Commission proposal for a Council Directive amending Directive 2003/96/EC provides for a permanent rule allowing France, within certain limits, to apply differentiated levels of taxation at the level of the French regions. It is therefore appropriate to limit the period of application of this Decision to three years and to stipulate that, in any event, this Decision expires once the said permanent rule becomes applicable. Moreover, in order not to undermine future general developments of the existing legal framework, it is also important to provide that, should the Council introduce a modified general system for the taxation of energy products to which the present authorisation would not be adapted, this Decision shall expire on the day on which the rules on that modified system become applicable.
(9) It should be ensured that France can apply the specific reduction to which this Decision relates from 1 January 2013, following seamlessly on from the prior arrangements under Implementing Decision 2011/38/EU. The authorisation requested should therefore be granted with effect from 1 January 2013.
(10) This Decision is without prejudice to the application of the Union rules regarding State aid,
1. France is hereby authorised to apply reduced rates of taxation to unleaded petrol and gas oil used as motor fuel. Gas oil for commercial use within the meaning of Article 7(2) of Directive 2003/96/EC shall not be eligible for any such reductions.
2. Administrative regions may be permitted to apply differentiated reductions provided the following conditions are fulfilled:
(a) the reductions are no greater than EUR 35,4 per 1 000 litres of unleaded petrol or EUR 23,0 per 1 000 litres of gas oil;
(b) the reductions are no greater than the difference between the levels of taxation of gas oil for non-commercial use and gas oil for commercial use;
(c) the reductions are linked to the objective socioeconomic conditions of the regions in which they are applied;
(d) the application of regional reductions does not have the effect of granting a region a competitive advantage in intra-Union trade.
3. The reduced rates must comply with the requirements of Directive 2003/96/EC, and in particular the minimum rates laid down in Article 7.
This Decision shall take effect on the day of its notification.
It shall apply from 1 January 2013.
It shall expire on 31 December 2015.
However, this Decision shall expire on the earlier day one of the following modifications to Directive 2003/96/EC becomes applicable:
— the general system for the taxation of energy products is modified in a manner to which the present authorisation is not adapted,
— France is authorised to apply differentiated levels of taxation at the level of the regions.
This Decision is addressed to the French Republic.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 315/93 of 8 February 1993 laying down Community procedures relating to contaminants in food (1),
Whereas, in accordance with the procedure provided for in Article 5 (3) (b) of Regulation (EEC) No 315/93, the Danish authorities have notified the Commission of their intention to adopt a draft regulation defining the maximum limits of certain mycotoxins in foodstuffs;
Whereas the draft regulation lays down the maximum limits for certain mycotoxins in foodstuffs and food ingredients;
Whereas, in accordance with Article 5 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 315/93, the Commission has consulted the other Member States within the framework of the Standing Committee for Foodstuffs;
Whereas, in the general view, it has been recognized that it is desirable to lay down such maximum limits for mycotoxins in certain foodstuffs;
Whereas, however, the application of such a measure unilaterally in Denmark would constitute a barrier to intra-Community trade;
Whereas this finding has prompted the Commission to express a negative opinion in accordance with Article 5 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 315/93;
Whereas one solution to the problem posed by the Danish draft regulation would be to lay down maximum Community limits for mycotoxins in foodstuffs;
Whereas, therefore, it is necessary to postpone any national initiative in this area for an appropriate period of time;
Whereas the measures adopted by this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee for Foodstuffs,
The Kingdom of Denmark is hereby required to postpone the adoption of its draft regulation concerning the maximum limit of certain mycotoxins in foodstuffs until 1 May 1995.
This Decision is addressed to the Kingdom of Denmark.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 66/401/EEC of 14 June 1966 on the marketing of fodder plant seed (1), as last amended by Directive 79/692/EEC (2), and in particular Article 2 (1c) thereof,
Having regard to the requests submitted by the Kingdom of Denmark, the Federal Republic of Germany, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the United Kingdom,
Whereas Directive 66/401/EEC provides that certain conditions concerning seed testing may be relaxed for seed produced in regions of the Community in which very favourable ecological conditions ensure compliance with the relevant Community standards;
Whereas, in the case of the Kingdom of Denmark, the Federal Republic of Germany, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, it can be assumed from ecological conditions and previous experience that the standards laid down in Annex II, section I, point 2, column 13, of the table are being complied with;
Whereas the Kingdom of Denmark, the Federal Republic of Germany, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the United Kingdom should therefore be authorized not to apply, in respect of seed harvested in the Member State concerned, and where appropriate of seed harvested in another Member State which has been authorized, the conditions laid down in Directive 66/401/EEC, Annex II, section I, point 2, paragraph B (1), for basic seed and certified seed of certain species;

COMMISSION DECISION
of 25 April 2007
on the withdrawal from the market of Ms1xRf2 (ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5) hybrid oilseed rape and its derived products
(notified under document number C(2007) 1806)
(Only the German text is authentic)
(2007/306/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003 of the European Parliament and the Council of 22 September 2003 on genetically modified food and feed (1), and in particular Article 8(6) and 20(6) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Seeds of hybrid oilseed rape Ms1xRf2 (ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5) have been granted consent pursuant to Council Directive 90/220/EEC of 23 April 1990 on the deliberate release into the environment of genetically modified organisms (2) by Commission Decision 97/393/EC of 6 June 1997 concerning the placing on the market of genetically modified swede-rape (Brassica napus L. oleifera Metzg. MS1, RF2), in accordance with Council Directive 90/220/EEC (3), for the intended use of growing and handling in the environment before and during processing to non-viable fractions. Directive 90/220/EEC has been recast and repealed by Directive 2001/18/EC.
(2) The consent was based on the information contained in the dossier submitted under Directive 90/220/EEC and all the information submitted by the Member States.
(3) Processed oil from ACS-BNØØ4-7, ACS-BNØØ2-5 and the hybrid combination ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5 oilseed rape was placed on the market in accordance with Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 258/97 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 January 1997 concerning novel foods and novel food ingredients (4).
(4) ACS-BNØØ4-7, ACS-BNØØ2-5 and the hybrid combination ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5 oilseed rape and their derived products have subsequently been notified as existing products by Bayer CropScience AG (hereafter ‘the notifier’) under Article 8(1)(a) and Article 20(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003 (hereafter ‘the Regulation’) and entered in the Community Register of genetically modified food and feed. The scope of the notification covered food (processed oil) produced from the male sterile MS1Bn (B91-4) oilseed rape line and all conventional crosses, the fertility restorer RF2Bn (B94-2) oilseed rape line and all conventional crosses and the hybrid combination MS1xRF2 (ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5)) as well as feed containing or consisting of oilseed swede-rape derived from the male sterile MS1 (B91-4), cultivar Drakkar, oilseed rape line (Brassica napus L. oleifera Metzg.), the fertility restorer RF2 (B94-2), cultivar Drakkar, oilseed rape line (Brassica napus L. oleifera Metzg.) and the hybrid combination MS1xRF2 (ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5) (Brassica napus L. oleifera Metzg. MS1Bn x RF2Bn) for the intended uses of growing and handling in the environment before and during processing to non-viable fractions.
(5) The notifier of hybrid oilseed rape ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5, in a letter to the Commission dated 15 November 2005, indicated that varieties containing this event were no longer offered for sale on a global basis and that all inventory seed were recalled and destroyed after the 2003 sales season.
(6) The notifier has further indicated to the Commission that it has no intention to submit an application for renewal of the authorisation of ACS-BNØØ4-7, ACS-BNØØ2-5 and the hybrid combination ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5 oilseed rape under the Regulation in accordance with the first sub-paragraph of Article 8(4), Article 11, Article 20(4) and Article 23 respectively. Therefore neither the cultivation nor the placing on the market of ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5 hybrid oilseed rape and its derived products will be authorised in the Community after 18 April 2007.
(7) Measures should therefore be adopted in order to ensure effective withdrawal from the market of seeds of hybrid oilseed rape ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5. As a consequence of the non-availability of seeds, any products derived from ACS-BNØØ4-7, ACS-BNØØ2-5 and the hybrid combination ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5 oilseed rape can be expected to disappear from the food and feed chain in a reasonable period of time.
(8) Since the notifier has stopped selling seeds of hybrid oilseed rape ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5 after the 2003 planting season, stocks of products derived from ACS-BNØØ4-7, ACS-BNØØ2-5 and the hybrid combination ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5 oilseed rape have been used up and are not expected to be present on the market after 18 April 2007. However, minute traces of genetically modified material from ACS-BNØØ4-7, ACS-BNØØ2-5 and ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5 oilseed rape might remain present in food or feed products for a certain period of time.
(9) For reasons of legal certainty, it is therefore necessary to provide for a transitional period of time within which food and feed products may contain such material without being considered to be in breach of Article 4(2) or Article 16(2) of the Regulation where this presence is adventitious or technically unavoidable.
(10) The tolerated level and the period of time should be set taking into account the time needed until the effective withdrawal from the market of the seeds produces its effects throughout the food and feed chain. In all cases, the tolerated level shall remain below the labelling and traceability threshold of no higher than 0,9 % provided for by the Regulation for the adventitious or technically unavoidable presence of GM material in food and feed.
(11) The entries in the Community Register of genetically modified food and feed, as provided for in Article 28 of the Regulation, regarding ACS-BNØØ4-7, ACS-BNØØ2-5 and the hybrid combination ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5 oilseed rape should be modified in order to take account of this Decision.
(12) The notifier has been consulted on the measures provided for in this Decision.
(13) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
In order to ensure effective withdrawal from the market of seeds of hybrid oilseed rape ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5 for the purpose of cultivation the notifier shall comply with the measures set out in the Annex.
Within six months from the date of notification of this Decision, the notifier shall submit to the Commission a report on the implementation of the measures set out in the Annex.
The presence of material which contains, consists of or is produced from ACS-BNØØ4-7, ACS-BNØØ2-5 and the hybrid combination ACS-BNØØ4-7xACS-BNØØ2-5 oilseed rape in food or feed products notified under Article 8(1)(a) and Article 20(1) of the Regulation shall be tolerated until five years after the date of notification of this Decision:
(a) provided that this presence is adventitious or technically unavoidable; and
(b) in a proportion no higher than 0,9 %.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1278/2008
of 17 December 2008
adopting emergency support measures for the pigmeat market in form of private storage aid in Ireland
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (“Single CMO” Regulation) (1), and in particular Articles 37, 43(a) and (d), 191, in conjunction with Article 4 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 37 of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 provides that when the average Community market price for pig carcasses as established by reference to the prices recorded in each Member State on the representative markets of the Community and weighted by means of coefficients reflecting the relative size of the pig herd in each Member State is, and is likely to remain, at less than 103 % of the reference price, the Commission may decide to grant aid for private storage.
(2) Market prices have fallen below that level and, given seasonal and cyclical trends, this situation could persist.
(3) The situation of the pigmeat market in Ireland is particularly critical taken into account the recent findings of elevated levels of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in pigmeat originating in Ireland. The competent authorities have taken various measures to address the situation.
(4) Contaminated animal feed was delivered to pig farms in Ireland. The affected pig farms constitute 7 % of the total pig production in Ireland. The contaminated feed constitutes a very large portion of the pig diet resulting in high levels of dioxins in meat from pigs from the affected farms. Given the difficulties in tracing back the pigmeat to farms and given the high levels of dioxin found in the affected pigmeat, the Irish authorities decided to recall, as a precautionary measure, all pigmeat and pigmeat products from the market.
(5) The application of those measures is causing very serious disturbance of the pigmeat market in Ireland. Given the exceptional circumstances and the practical difficulties that the pigmeat market in Ireland is experiencing, it is therefore appropriate to provide for Community emergency market support measures by granting aid for private storage in Ireland, for a limited period and relating to a limited quantity of products.
(6) Article 31 of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 provides that a private storage aid may be granted for pigmeat and that aid shall be fixed by the Commission in advance or by means of tendering procedure.
(7) As the situation on the pigmeat market in Ireland requires rapid practical action, the most appropriate procedure to grant an aid for private storage would be fixing it in advance.
(8) Commission Regulation (EC) No 826/2008 of 20 August 2008 laying down common rules for the granting of private storage aid for certain agricultural products (2) has established common rules for the implementation of the private storage aid scheme.
(9) Pursuant to Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 826/2008, an aid fixed in advance is to be granted in accordance with the detailed rules and conditions provided for in Chapter III of that Regulation.
(10) In view of the particular circumstances, it is necessary to require that the products to be placed into storage are derived from pigs that were reared on farms for which it is ascertained that these were not affected by contaminated feed. Moreover, it is necessary to provide that the products concerned originate from pigs raised and slaughtered in Ireland.
(11) In order to facilitate the management of the measure, the pigmeat products are classified according to similarities with regard to the level of storage cost.
(12) In order to facilitate the administrative and control work relating to the conclusion of contracts, minimum quantities of products each applicant must provide for should be fixed.
(13) A security should be fixed in order to ensure the operators fulfil their contractual obligations and that the measure will have its desired effect on the market.
(14) Exports of pigmeat products contribute to restoring the balance on the market. Therefore, provisions of Article 28(3) of Regulation (EC) No 826/2008 should apply when the storage period is shortened where products removed from storage are intended for export. Daily amounts to be applied for the reduction of the amount of the aid as referred to in that Article should be fixed.
(15) For the purpose of application of the first subparagraph of Article 28(3) of Regulation (EC) No 826/2008 and for reason of consistency and clarity for operators, it is necessary to express in days the period of 2 months referred therein.
(16) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets,
Scope
1. Aid for private storage shall be granted in respect of pigmeat products fulfilling the following conditions:
(a) they come from pigs which were raised in Ireland for at least the last two months before slaughtering;
(b) they are of sound, fair and marketable quality and come from pigs reared on farms for which it is established that they have not used feed contaminated by elevated levels of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).

COMMISSION DECISION of 23 July 1981 establishing that the apparatus described as "Ortec economy energy dispersive system, model 5200 M", may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties (81/670/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1798/75 of 10 July 1975 on the importation free of Common Customs Tariff duties of educational, scientific and cultural materials (1), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1027/79 (2),
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79 of 12 December 1979 laying down provisions for the implementation of Regulation (EEC) No 1798/75 (3), and in particular Article 7 thereof,
Whereas, by letter dated 28 January 1981, Germany has requested the Commission to invoke the procedure provided for in Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79 in order to determine whether or not the apparatus described as "Ortec economy energy dispersive system, model 5200 M", to be used for research on the cultivation and the characterization of monocrystals for physics research, should be considered to be a scientific apparatus and, where the reply is in the affirmative, whether apparatus of equivalent scientific value is currently being manufactured in the Community;
Whereas, in accordance with the provisions of Article 7 (5) of Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79, a group of experts composed of representatives of all the Member States met on 26 May 1981 within the framework of the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements to examine the matter;
Whereas this examination showed that the apparatus in question is a spectrometer;
Whereas its objective technical characteristics such as the very high resolution power and the use-to which it is put make it specially suited to scientific research ; whereas, moreover, apparatus of the same kind are principally used for scientific activities ; whereas it must therefore be considered to be a scientific apparatus;
Whereas, however, on the basis of information received from Member States, apparatus of scientific value equivalent to the said apparatus, capable of being used for the same purposes, are currently being manufactured in the Community ; whereas this applies, in particular, to the apparatus "EDX-290" and "System 860" manufactured by Link Systems Ltd, Halifax Road, High Wycombe, UK-Buckinghamshire HP12 3SE,
The apparatus described as "Ortec economy energy dispersive system, model 5200 M", which is the subject of an application by Germany of 28 January 1981, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

Commission Regulation (EC) No 1859/2002
of 17 October 2002
fixing the representative prices and the additional import duties for molasses in the sugar sector
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 of 19 June 2001 on the common organisation of the market in sugar(1), as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 680/2002(2),
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1422/95 of 23 June 1995 laying down detailed rules of application for imports of molasses in the sugar sector and amending Regulation (EEC) No 785/68(3), and in particular Article 1(2) and Article 3(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EC) No 1422/95 stipulates that the cif import price for molasses, hereinafter referred to as the "representative price", should be set in accordance with Commission Regulation (EEC) No 785/68(4). That price should be fixed for the standard quality defined in Article 1 of the above Regulation.
(2) The representative price for molasses is calculated at the frontier crossing point into the Community, in this case Amsterdam; that price must be based on the most favourable purchasing opportunities on the world market established on the basis of the quotations or prices on that market adjusted for any deviations from the standard quality. The standard quality for molasses is defined in Regulation (EEC) No 785/68.
(3) When the most favourable purchasing opportunities on the world market are being established, account must be taken of all available information on offers on the world market, on the prices recorded on important third-country markets and on sales concluded in international trade of which the Commission is aware, either directly or through the Member States. Under Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 785/68, the Commission may for this purpose take an average of several prices as a basis, provided that this average is representative of actual market trends.
(4) The information must be disregarded if the goods concerned are not of sound and fair marketable quality or if the price quoted in the offer relates only to a small quantity that is not representative of the market. Offer prices which can be regarded as not representative of actual market trends must also be disregarded.
(5) If information on molasses of the standard quality is to be comparable, prices must, depending on the quality of the molasses offered, be increased or reduced in the light of the results achieved by applying Article 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 785/68.
(6) A representative price may be left unchanged by way of exception for a limited period if the offer price which served as a basis for the previous calculation of the representative price is not available to the Commission and if the offer prices which are available and which appear not to be sufficiently representative of actual market trends would entail sudden and considerable changes in the representative price.
(7) Where there is a difference between the trigger price for the product in question and the representative price, additional import duties should be fixed under the conditions set out in Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 1422/95. Should the import duties be suspended pursuant to Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1422/95, specific amounts for these duties should be fixed.
(8) Application of these provisions will have the effect of fixing the representative prices and the additional import duties for the products in question as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
(9) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
The representative prices and the additional duties applying to imports of the products referred to in Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 1422/95 are fixed in the Annex hereto.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 18 October 2002.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

of 4 August 2003
amending Regulation (EC) No 174/1999 laying down special detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 as regards export licences and export refunds in the case of milk and milk products
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 806/2003(2), and in particular Article 31(14) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 21 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 800/1999 of 15 April 1999 laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of export refunds on agricultural products(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 500/2003(4), states that no refund is to be granted on products that are not of sound and fair marketable quality on the day of acceptance of the export declaration. To ensure that this rule is uniformly applied it should be stipulated in Commission Regulation (EC) No 174/1999(5), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 833/2003(6), that for a refund to be granted on the products that are indicated in Article 1 of Council Directive 92/46/EEC of 16 June 1992 laying down the health rules for the production and placing on the market of raw milk, heat-treated milk and milk-based products(7), as last amended by Directive 94/71/EC(8), and appear in Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 they must be prepared in line with the requirements of that Directive and carry the health mark required by it.
(2) To prevent rerouting of trade in order to evade compliance with this new rule it should be stipulated that products indicated in Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 that are to be used as animal feed must also, if a refund is claimed for them, have been prepared in line with the requirements of Directive 92/46/EEC and carry the health mark required by it.
(3) To give time for the action that will need to be taken so that products to be exported bear the health mark and allow existing stocks to be exported and packaging not bearing the mark to be used up, this Regulation should apply from 1 January 2004.
(4) Regulation (EC) No 174/1999 should be amended accordingly.
(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,
The following paragraph 4 is added to Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 174/1999:
"4. For a refund to be granted on the products listed in Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 they must meet the requirements of Directive 92/46/EEC, notably preparation in an approved establishment and compliance with the health marking requirements specified at A in Chapter IV of Annex C thereto."
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 1 January 2004.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COUNCIL DIRECTIVE of 29 January 1985 amending Directive 81/645/EEC concerning the Community list of less-favoured farming areas within the meaning of Directive 75/268/EEC (Greece) (85/148/EEC)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 75/268/EEC of 28 April 1975 on mountain and hill-farming and farming in certain less-favoured areas (1), as last amended by Directive 82/786/EEC (2), and in particular Article 2 (2) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (3),
Whereas Directive 81/645/EEC (4), as last amended by Decision 83/339/EEC (5), identifies the less-favoured areas in Greece within the meaning of Article 3 (3), (4) and (5) of Directive 75/268/EEC;
Whereas the Greek Government has applied for an extension of the less-favoured areas by means of, on the one hand, a revision of one of the criteria used to define the less-favoured areas within the meaning of Article 3 (4) of Directive 75/268/EEC and, on the other, better application of the other criteria used to define the areas within the meaning of Article 3 (3) and (5) of the said Directive;
Whereas the Greek Government has proposed that the number of 45 inhabitants per square kilometre should be adopted as a criterion for population density (the national average population density is 74 inhabitants per square kilometre), in order, in particular, to make up the difference between the official statistics drawn up on the basis of the communal registers and the actual population of the less-favoured areas within the meaning of Article 3 (4) of Directive 75/268/EEC;
Whereas the Greek Government has communicated to the Commission, in accordance with Article 2 (1) of Directive 75/268/EEC, the names of 125 areas suitable for inclusion in the Community list of less-favoured farming areas, together with information concerning the characteristics of those areas ; whereas, moreover, the Greek Government has informed the Commission that it intends to maintain the special system of aids which exists in the less-favoured areas throughout all of the less-favoured areas;
Whereas the new areas comply with the criteria and figures applied pursuant to Directive 81/645/EEC to define the areas concerned within the meaning of Article 3 (3), (4) and (5) of Directive 75/268/EEC, taking account of the change in the criterion of (1) OJ No L 128, 19.5.1975, p. 1.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 39/2008
of 17 January 2008
fixing the rates of the refunds applicable to certain milk products exported in the form of goods not covered by Annex I to the Treaty
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products (1), and in particular Article 31(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 31(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 provides that the difference between prices in international trade for the products listed in Article 1(a), (b), (c), (d), (e), and (g) of that Regulation and prices within the Community may be covered by an export refund.
(2) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1043/2005 of 30 June 2005 implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 3448/93 as regards the system of granting export refunds on certain agricultural products exported in the form of goods not covered by Annex I to the Treaty, and the criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds (2), specifies the products for which a rate of refund is to be fixed, to be applied where these products are exported in the form of goods listed in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999.
(3) In accordance with the first paragraph of Article 14 of Regulation (EC) No 1043/2005, the rate of the refund per 100 kilograms for each of the basic products in question is to be fixed each month.
(4) However, in the case of certain milk products exported in the form of goods not covered by Annex I to the Treaty, there is a danger that, if high refund rates are fixed in advance, the commitments entered into in relation to those refunds may be jeopardised. In order to avert that danger, it is therefore necessary to take appropriate precautionary measures, but without precluding the conclusion of long-term contracts. The fixing of specific refund rates for the advance fixing of refunds in respect of those products should enable those two objectives to be met.
(5) Article 15(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1043/2005 provides that, when the rate of the refund is being fixed, account is to be taken, where appropriate, of production refunds, aids or other measures having equivalent effect applicable in all Member States in accordance with the Regulation on the common organisation of the market in the product in question to the basic products listed in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1043/2005 or to assimilated products.
(6) Article 12(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 provides for the payment of aid for Community-produced skimmed milk processed into casein if such milk and the casein manufactured from it fulfil certain conditions.
(7) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1898/2005 of 9 November 2005 laying down detailed rules for implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 as regards measures for the disposal of cream, butter and concentrated butter (3), lays down that butter and cream at reduced prices should be made available to industries which manufacture certain goods.
(8) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,
The rates of the refunds applicable to the basic products listed in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1043/2005 and in Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999, and exported in the form of goods listed in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999, shall be fixed as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 18 January 2008.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 873/2005
of 9 June 2005
amending Regulation (EC) No 245/2001 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1673/2000 on the common organisation of the markets in flax and hemp grown for fibre
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1673/2000 of 27 July 2000 on the common organisation of the markets in flax and hemp grown for fibre (1), in particular Article 9 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) The marketing year for arable crops, including flax and hemp grown for fibre, was established in Article 1(2) of Council Regulation (EC) No 1251/1999 of 17 May 1999 establishing a support system for producers of certain arable crops (2). Following the repeal of that Regulation by Council Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 of 29 September 2003 establishing common rules for direct support schemes under the common agricultural policy and establishing certain support schemes for farmers (3), it is necessary to establish the marketing year for flax and hemp grown for fibre in the Commission Regulation (EC) No 245/2001 (4).
(2) In Article 5(1) of Regulation (EC) No 245/2001 reference is made to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3508/92 of 27 November 1992 establishing an integrated administration and control system for certain Community aid schemes (5). As that Regulation has been repealed and replaced by Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003, the relevant reference should be amended accordingly.
(3) Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 245/2001 makes the payment of the aid for processing flax and hemp straw into fibre subject in particular to the condition to that the parcels sown under flax or hemp grown for fibre have, for the marketing year concerned, been declared by means of the ‘area’ aid applications as referred to in Article 4 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3887/92 of 23 December 1992 laying down detailed rules for applying the integrated administration and control system for certain Community aid schemes (6). Since the ‘area’ aid applications have been replaced by the single application as referred to in Chapter I of Title II of Part II of Commission Regulation (EC) No 796/2004 of 21 April 2004 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of cross compliance, modulation and the integrated administration and control system (7) provided for in Council Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 establishing common rules for direct support schemes under the common agricultural policy and establishing certain support schemes for farmers, it is necessary to amend Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 245/2001 accordingly.
(4) Experience has demonstrated that Article 8(5) of Regulation (EC) No 245/2001, obliging the Commission to publish the information forwarded by the Member States concerning the transfers between national guaranteed quantities for long flax fibre and for short flax and hemp fibre in the C series of the Official Journal of the European Union, entails a considerable administrative work, without bringing an effective contribution to the sector, since the operators already obtain this information through the Member States themselves. In order to simplify the rules governing the aid for processing flax and hemp that provision should be deleted.
(5) As a result of the repeal of Regulation (EC) No 1251/1999, the comparison of information on agricultural parcels under flax or hemp grown for fibre in order to ensure compliance with the conditions for granting the aid for flax fibre or hemp fibre, as referred to in Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 245/2001, should be made with the information determined in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003.
(6) With a view to facilitate procedures, and to the extent that is technically possible, Member States and importers should be given the possibility to issue and use licences through computerised systems for imports of hemp from third countries provided for in Article 17a of Regulation (EC) No 245/2001.
(7) Regulation (EC) No 245/2001 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(8) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Natural Fibres,
Regulation (EC) No 245/2001 is amended as follows:
1. Article 1 is replaced by the following:
2. Article 5(1) (b) is replaced by the following:
‘(b) the primary processor’s authorisation number, the farmer’s identification number under the integrated administration and control system provided for in Council Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 and their names and addresses;’.
3. In Article 7(1) the first indent is replaced by the following:
‘— comes from straw covered by sale/purchase contracts, processing commitments or processing contracts as referred to in Article 5 covering parcels under flax or hemp grown for fibre and by the single application as referred to in Chapter I of Title II of Part II of Commission Regulation (EC) No 796/2004, submitted in respect of the year in which the marketing year begins, and’.
4. In Article 8, paragraph 5 is deleted.
5. In Article 13(1) the second indent is replaced by the following:
‘— comparing information on agricultural parcels referred to in sale/purchase contracts, processing commitments and processing contracts to see whether it tallies with that determined in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003,’.
6. In Article 17a (1), the following subparagraph is inserted after the second subparagraph:
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply as from the marketing year 2005/2006.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) No 1152/2014
of 4 June 2014
supplementing Directive 2013/36/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to regulatory technical standards on the identification of the geographical location of the relevant credit exposures for calculating institution-specific countercyclical capital buffer rates
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Directive 2013/36/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2013 on access to the activity of credit institutions and the prudential supervision of credit institutions and investment firms (1), and in particular the third subparagraph of Article 140(7) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) The calculation of the institution-specific countercyclical capital buffer rates requires that the location of the own funds requirements for all credit exposures of a specific institution, including exposures held in the trading book and all securitisation exposures, are identified geographically.
(2) The geographical location should be determined in the basis of the location of the risk of the exposures. That will ensure that the build-up of additional reserves from implementing the countercyclical buffer is allocated to the financial system with excess credit growth.
(3) The place of residence of the obligor or of the debtor should be generally used for determining the geographical location of all credit exposures as this is considered to best reflect the location where the risk is situated and which is, therefore, of importance to the financial system. However, the geographical location of credit exposures identified as specialised lending exposures pursuant to Article 147(8) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) should be based on the location of the assets generating the income that is the primary source of repayment of the obligation.
(4) For a clear and unambiguous understanding of the measures for the identification of the geographical location of the relevant credit exposures, it is essential to specify a list of definitions of the technical terms used in this Regulation.
(5) Exposures to a legal person should, in principle, be allocated to the Member State or to the third country, in which that person has its registered office. However, the place of actual centre of administration and the place of registered office of a legal person might differ. This has been recognised by the Court in its rulings in cases C-81/87 (Daily Mail), C-212/97 (Centros), C-208/00 (Überseering), C-167/01 (Inspire Art), C-411/03 (Sevic) and C-210/06 (Cartesio). To ensure proper allocation of the countercyclical capital buffer in those cases, institutions, who are aware that such a discrepancy exists with regard to an obligor, should allocate the relevant exposures to the place of the actual centre of the administration of the relevant legal person.
(6) For exposures to collective investment undertakings (CIU), it is appropriate that they are allocated in the location of the obligor of the underlying exposure as defined in this Regulation. Where the definition of the obligor of the underlying exposure is unreasonably burdensome, the exposure to the CIU may be allocated to the home Member State of the institution.
(7) Exposures to other assets should be allocated to the home Member State of the institution, if their obligor cannot be identified.
(8) Proportionality and materiality considerations should be taken into account for institutions with limited foreign overall exposure or limited trading book activity, by allowing the use of simpler allocation methods for these institutions. This is intended to alleviate the burden for smaller institutions which tend to have limited foreign and trading book activity.
(9) This Regulation is based on the draft regulatory technical standards submitted by the European Banking Authority to the Commission.
(10) The European Banking Authority has conducted open public consultations on the draft regulatory technical standards on which this Regulation is based, it has analysed the potential related costs and benefits and requested the opinion of the Banking Stakeholder Group established in accordance with Article 37 of Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3),
Definitions
For the purposes of this Regulation, the following definitions shall apply:
(1) ‘general credit exposure’ means the risk exposure amount calculated in accordance with Article 92(3) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of an exposure referred to in Article 140(4)(a) of Directive 2013/36/EU;
(2) ‘trading book exposure’ means the risk exposure amount calculated in accordance with Article 92(3) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of an exposure referred to in Article 140(4)(b) of Directive 2013/36/EU;
(3) ‘securitisation exposure’ means the risk exposure amount calculated in accordance with Article 92(3) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 of an exposure referred to in Article 140(4)(c) of Directive 2013/36/EU;
(4) ‘location of the obligor’ means the Member State or the third country, where the natural or legal person, who is the institution's counterparty to a general credit exposure or the issuer of a financial instrument not included in the trading book or the counterparty to a non-trading book exposure, is ordinarily resident (in the case of a natural person), or has its registered office (in the case of a legal person); for a legal person whose centre of actual administration is in a Member State or in a third country other than the Member State or the country of its registered office, ‘location of the obligor’ means the Member State or the third country of its actual place of administration;
(5) ‘location of the debtor’ means the Member State or the third country, where the natural or legal person who is the issuer of the financial instrument in the trading book, or the counterparty to a trading book exposure, is ordinarily resident (in the case of a natural person), or has its registered office (in the case of a legal person); for a legal person whose centre of actual administration is in a Member State or in a third country other than the state or the country of its registered office, ‘location of the debtor’ means the Member State or the third country of its actual place of administration;
(6) ‘location of the income’ means the Member State or the third country of the location of the assets which generate the income that is the primary source of repayment of the obligation in relation to a specialised lending exposure;

(8) ‘specialised lending exposure’ means the general credit exposures possessing the characteristics referred to in Article 147(8) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013.
Location of general credit exposures
(1) All general credit exposures, which do not fall under paragraphs 2 to 5 of this Article, shall be allocated to the location of the obligor.
(2) General credit exposures to CIUs as referred to in point (o) of Article 112 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, shall be allocated to the location of the obligor of the underlying exposures. If there is more than one location corresponding to the obligors of the underlying exposures of a given CIU exposure, Article 4(2) of this Regulation may also apply to that CIU exposure.
(3) Specialised lending exposures as referred to in Article 147(8) of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 shall be allocated to the location of the income.
(4) General credit exposures to other items as referred to in point (q) of Article 112 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 shall be allocated to the institution's home Member State if the institution cannot identify their obligor.
(5) The following general credit exposures may be allocated to an institution's home Member State:
(a) exposures to CIUs as referred to in point (o) of Article 112 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, where the institution cannot identify the location of the obligor or obligors of the underlying exposures based on information existing internally or available externally without disproportionate effort;
(b) foreign exposures, whose aggregate does not exceed 2 % of the aggregate of the general credit, trading book and securitisation exposures of that institution. The aggregate of the general credit, trading book and securitisation exposures is calculated by excluding the general credit exposures located in accordance with point (a) of this paragraph and with paragraph 4.
(6) Institutions shall calculate the percentage referred to in point (b) of paragraph 5, both on an annual and on an ad hoc basis. An ad hoc calculation is required when an event that affects the financial or economic situation of the institution occurs.
Geographical location of trading book exposures
(1) Subject to paragraphs 2 and 3, trading book exposures shall be allocated to the location of the debtor.
(2) For trading book exposures subject to the own funds requirements under Part Three, Title IV, Chapter 5 of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013, institutions shall determine their geographical location by multiplying their aggregate risk exposure amount by the ratio below:
(a) the own funds requirements for sub-portfolios split according to the geographical location determined according to the model provided in Chapter 5 of Title IV of Part Three of Regulation (EU) No 575/2013 to
(b) the sum of own funds requirements determined under point (a) across all geographical locations.
(3) Institutions, whose total trading book exposures does not exceed 2 % of their total general credit, trading book and securitisation exposures, may allocate those exposures to the home Member State of the institution.
(4) Institutions shall calculate the percentage referred to in paragraph 3, both on an annual and on an ad hoc basis. An ad hoc calculation is required when an event that affects the financial or economic situation of the institution occurs.
Geographical location of securitisation exposures
(1) A securitisation exposure shall be allocated to the location of the obligor of the underlying exposures.
(2) Where there is more than one location corresponding to the obligor of the underlying exposures of a given securitisation exposure, that exposure may allocated to the location of the obligor of the underlying exposures with the highest proportion in the underlying securitisation exposures.
(3) Securitisation exposures for which information on underlying securitisation exposures is not available, may be allocated to the home Member State of the institution if the institution cannot identify the underlying obligor based on existing available information from internal or external sources or without applying a disproportionate effort to obtain the information.
Entry into force
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),
In cooperation with the European Parliament (2),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (3),
Whereas the abolition of customs formalities, controls and documentation for all movements of goods across internal frontiers is necessary for the completion of the internal market;
Whereas, in the Member States, statistics on the trading of goods between Member States resulting from transit movements and movements into and out of warehouses may nevertheless still be needed;
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 3330/91 of 7 November 1991 on the statistics relating to the trading of goods between Member States (4) prohibits the Member States from introducing or maintaining compulsory formalities for the purpose of keeping statistics on transit and storage; whereas it is necessary for that purpose to provide a Community legal base;
Whereas the framework in which the Member States are authorized to organize their statistical surveys on these movements must be determined in order to prevent the burden on those responsible for providing information varying excessively from one Member State to another;
Whereas, within that framework, it is necessary to determine the purpose of transit and storage statistics and the consequences for the collection of information, to ensure that responsibility for collecting that information is directed towards existing administrative sources and to make use of the competent services of the latter to fill any gaps, without increasing the burden on those responsible for providing information;
Whereas that burden must not exceed certain limits, as regards classification, data to be declared or data media;
Whereas it is important that the burden of transit and storage statistics be alleviated, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises; whereas this should be effected by means of statistical thresholds;
Whereas the Commission must not only adopt provisions implementing this Regulation but must also ensure that other implementing provisions adopted by the Member States do not compromise the alleviation of the burden on those responsible for providing information; whereas the Commission should be assisted in this task by the Committee on Statistics relating to the Trading of Goods between Member States,
1. With a view to compiling transit statistics and storage statistics, Member States may collect data on the trading of goods between Member States, acting in conformity with the rules laid down in this Regulation.
2. Member States which exercise this option shall accordingly inform the Commission.
1. For the purposes of this Regulation, the definitions given in Article 2 (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of Regulation (EEC) No 3330/91 shall apply.
2. For the purpose of this Regulation:

(b) interrupted transit: means transit during which a break in transport occurs; this also includes transhipment;
(c) customs warehousing procedure: means the customs warehousing procedure a defined in Articles 1 and 2 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2503/88 of 25 July 1988 on customs warehouses (5);
(d) competent statistical services: means those services in each Member State which are responsible for compiling statistics on the trading of goods between Member States.
Of the goods referred to in Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 3330/91, data shall be collected for the purpose of compiling statistics on transit through a given Member State on those goods which are in interrupted transit in that Member State, with the exception of goods which having entered that Member State as non-Community goods, have subsequently been put into free circulation there.
Of the goods referred to in Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 3330/91, data shall be collected for the purpose of compiling storage statistics in a given Member State on:
(a) those which, though the customs warehousing procedure has not terminated, are transferred, within the meaning of Article 20 of Regulation (EEC) No 2503/88, from a customs warehouse situated in that Member State to one situated in another Member State;
(b) those which, though the customs warehousing procedure has not terminated, are transferred, within the meaning of Article 20 of Regulation (EEC) No 2503/88, to a customs warehouse situated in that Member State from a customs warehouse situated in another Member State;
(c) those which are subject to the customs warehousing procedure in that Member State and are sent to another Member State under the procedure for external Community transit;
(d) those which are subject to the customs warehousing procedure in that Member State, having come from another Member State under the proceedure for external Community transit.
1. Under conditions which they themselves shall determine, Member States shall autorize those responsible for providing statistical information to use administrative or commercial documents already required for other purposes as the statistical data medium.
However, with a view to the standardization of their basic documentation, Member States may establish exclusively statistical media provided that those required to provide statistical information are free to choose which of these media they use.
2. Member States shall inform the Commission of the media which they authorize or establish.
1. In a given Member State, the person responsible for providing statistical information as referred to in Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 3330/91 shall be the natural or legal person who, engaged in that Member State in the trading of goods between Member States, draws up the administrative or commercial document designated as the statistical data medium pursuant to the first subparagraph of Article 5 (1).
In the absence of such a person and by way of derogation from Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 3330/91, each Member State shall designate from among the administrative services to which the document referred to in the first subparagraph is made available, one service which shall provide the information.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1761/2005
of 27 October 2005
fixing the export refunds on syrups and certain other sugar products exported in the natural state
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 of 19 June 2001 on the common organisation of the markets in the sugar sector (1), and in particular the second subparagraph of Article 27(5) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 27 of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 provides that the difference between quotations or prices on the world market for the products listed in Article 1(1)(d) of that Regulation and prices for those products within the Community may be covered by an export refund.
(2) Article 3 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2135/95 of 7 September 1995 laying down detailed rules of application for the grant of export refunds in the sugar sector (2), provides that the export refund on 100 kilograms of the products listed in Article 1(1)(d) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 is equal to the basic amount multiplied by the sucrose content, including, where appropriate, other sugars expressed as sucrose; the sucrose content of the product in question is determined in accordance with Article 3 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2135/95.
(3) Article 30(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 provides that the basic amount of the refund on sorbose exported in the natural state must be equal to the basic amount of the refund less one hundredth of the production refund applicable, pursuant to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1265/2001 of 27 June 2001 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 as regards granting the production refund on certain sugar products used in the chemical industry (3), to the products listed in the Annex to the last mentioned Regulation.
(4) According to the terms of Article 30(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, the basic amount of the refund on the other products listed in Article 1(1)(d) of the said Regulation exported in the natural state must be equal to one-hundredth of an amount which takes account, on the one hand, of the difference between the intervention price for white sugar for the Community areas without deficit for the month for which the basic amount is fixed and quotations or prices for white sugar on the world market and, on the other, of the need to establish a balance between the use of Community basic products in the manufacture of processed goods for export to third countries and the use of third country products brought in under inward-processing arrangements.
(5) According to the terms of Article 30(4) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, the application of the basic amount may be limited to some of the products listed in Article 1(1)(d) of the said Regulation.
(6) Article 27 of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 makes provision for setting refunds for export in the natural state of products referred to in Article 1(1)(f) and (g) and (h) of that Regulation; the refund must be fixed per 100 kilograms of dry matter, taking account of the export refund for products falling within CN code 1702 30 91 and for products referred to in Article 1(1)(d) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 and of the economic aspects of the intended exports; in the case of the products referred to in the said Article (1)(f) and (g), the refund is to be granted only for products complying with the conditions in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 2135/95; for the products referred to in Article 1(1)(h), the refund shall be granted only for products complying with the conditions in Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 2135/95.
(7) The abovementioned refunds must be fixed every month; they may be altered in the intervening period.
(8) The first subparagraph of Article 27(5) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 provides that refunds on the products referred to in Article 1 of that Regulation may vary according to destination, where the world market situation or the specific requirements of certain markets make this necessary.
(9) The significant and rapid increase in preferential imports of sugar from the western Balkan countries since the start of 2001 and in exports of sugar to those countries from the Community seems to be highly artificial in nature.
(10) In order to prevent any abuses associated with the reimportation into the Community of sugar sector products that have qualified for export refunds, refunds for the products covered by this Regulation should not be fixed for all the countries of the western Balkans.
(11) In view of the above, refunds for the products in question should be fixed at the appropriate amounts.
(12) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
The export refunds on the products listed in Article 1(1)(d), (f), (g) and (h) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, exported in the natural state, shall be set out in the Annex hereto to this Regulation.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 28 October 2005.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION DIRECTIVE 2010/90/EU
of 7 December 2010
amending Council Directive 91/414/EEC to include pyridaben as active substance and amending Decision 2008/934/EC
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Directive 91/414/EEC of 15 July 1991 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (1), and in particular Article 6(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulations (EC) No 451/2000 (2) and (EC) No 1490/2002 (3) lay down the detailed rules for the implementation of the third stage of the programme of work referred to in Article 8(2) of Directive 91/414/EEC and establish a list of active substances to be assessed, with a view to their possible inclusion in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC. That list included pyridaben.
(2) In accordance with Article 11e of Regulation (EC) No 1490/2002 the applicant withdrew its support of the inclusion of that active substance in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC within two months from receipt of the draft assessment report. Consequently, Commission Decision 2008/934/EC of 5 December 2008 concerning the non-inclusion of certain active substances in Annex I to Council Directive 91/414/EEC and the withdrawal of authorisations for plant protection products containing these substances (4) was adopted on the non-inclusion of pyridaben.
(3) Pursuant to Article 6(2) of Directive 91/414/EEC the original notifier (hereinafter ‘the applicant’) submitted a new application requesting the accelerated procedure to be applied, as provided for in Articles 14 to 19 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 33/2008 of 17 January 2008 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Directive 91/414/EEC as regards a regular and an accelerated procedure for the assessment of active substances which were part of the programme of work referred to in Article 8(2) of that Directive but have not been included into its Annex I (5).
(4) The application was submitted to the Netherlands, which had been designated rapporteur Member State by Regulation (EC) No 451/2000. The time period for the accelerated procedure was respected. The specification of the active substance and the supported uses are the same as were the subject of Decision 2008/934/EC. That application also complies with the remaining substantive and procedural requirements of Article 15 of Regulation (EC) No 33/2008.
(5) The Netherlands evaluated the additional data submitted by the applicant and prepared an additional report. It communicated that report to the European Food Safety Authority (hereinafter ‘the Authority’) and to the Commission on 15 June 2009. The Authority communicated the additional report to the other Member States and the applicant for comments and forwarded the comments it had received to the Commission. In accordance with Article 20(1) of Regulation (EC) No 33/2008 and at the request of the Commission, the Authority presented its conclusion on pyridaben to the Commission on 28 May 2010 (6). The draft assessment report, the additional report and the conclusion of the Authority were reviewed by the Member States and the Commission within the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health and finalised on 28 October 2010 in the format of the Commission review report for pyridaben.
(6) It has appeared from the various examinations made that plant protection products containing pyridaben may be expected to satisfy, in general, the requirements laid down in Article 5(1)(a) and (b) of Directive 91/414/EEC, in particular with regard to the uses which have been examined and detailed in the Commission review report. It is therefore appropriate to include pyridaben in Annex I, in order to ensure that in all Member States the authorisations of plant protection products containing this active substance can be granted in accordance with the provisions of that Directive.
(7) Without prejudice to that conclusion, it is appropriate to obtain further information on certain specific points. Article 6(1) of Directive 91/414/EC provides that inclusion of a substance in Annex I may be subject to conditions. Therefore, it is appropriate to require that the applicant submit further information to confirm the results of the risk assessment on the basis of most recent scientific knowledge as regards the exposure to the aqueous photolysis metabolites W-1 and B-3, the long term risk for mammals, the assessment of fat soluble residues.
(8) A reasonable period should be allowed to elapse before an active substance is included in Annex I in order to permit Member States and the interested parties to prepare themselves to meet the new requirements which will result from the inclusion.
(9) Without prejudice to the obligations defined by Directive 91/414/EEC as a consequence of including an active substance in Annex I, Member States should be allowed a period of six months after inclusion to review existing authorisations of plant protection products containing pyridaben to ensure that the requirements laid down by Directive 91/414/EEC, in particular in its Article 13 and the relevant conditions set out in Annex I, are satisfied. Member States should vary, replace or withdraw, as appropriate, existing authorisations, in accordance with the provisions of Directive 91/414/EEC. By derogation from the above deadline, a longer period should be provided for the submission and assessment of the complete Annex III dossier of each plant protection product for each intended use in accordance with the uniform principles laid down in Directive 91/414/EEC.
(10) The experience gained from previous inclusions in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC of active substances assessed in the framework of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92 of 11 December 1992 laying down the detailed rules for the implementation of the first stage of the programme of work referred to in Article 8 (2) of Council Directive 91/414/EEC concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (7) has shown that difficulties can arise in interpreting the duties of holders of existing authorisations in relation to access to data. In order to avoid further difficulties it therefore appears necessary to clarify the duties of the Member States, especially the duty to verify that the holder of an authorisation demonstrates access to a dossier satisfying the requirements of Annex II to that Directive. However, this clarification does not impose any new obligations on Member States or holders of authorisations compared to the directives which have been adopted until now amending Annex I.
(11) It is therefore appropriate to amend Directive 91/414/EEC accordingly.
(12) Decision 2008/934/EC provides for the non-inclusion of pyridaben and the withdrawal of authorisations for plant protection products containing that substance by 31 December 2011. It is necessary to delete the line concerning pyridaben in the Annex to that Decision.
(13) It is therefore appropriate to amend Decision 2008/934/EC accordingly.
(14) The measures provided for in this Directive are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC is amended as set out in the Annex to this Directive.
The line concerning pyridaben in the Annex to Decision 2008/934/EC is deleted.
Member States shall adopt and publish by 31 October 2011 at the latest the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with this Directive. They shall forthwith communicate to the Commission the text of those provisions and a correlation table between those provisions and this Directive.
They shall apply those provisions from 1 November 2011.
When Member States adopt those provisions, they shall contain a reference to this Directive or be accompanied by such a reference on the occasion of their official publication. Member States shall determine how such reference is to be made.
1. Member States shall in accordance with Directive 91/414/EEC, where necessary, amend or withdraw existing authorisations for plant protection products containing pyridaben as an active substance by 1 November 2011.
By that date they shall in particular verify that the conditions in Annex I to that Directive relating to pyridaben 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 pyridaben 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 2011 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 pyridaben. 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 pyridaben as the only active substance, where necessary, amend or withdraw the authorisation by 30 April 2015 at the latest; or
(b) in the case of a product containing pyridaben as one of several active substances, where necessary, amend or withdraw the authorisation by 30 April 2015 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.
This Directive shall enter into force on 1 May 2011.
This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 170/83 of 25 January 1983 establishing a Community system for the conservation and management of fishery resources (1), and in particular Article 11 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas the Convention on Future Multilateral Cooperation in the North-West Atlantic Fisheries, hereinafter referred to as 'the NAFO Convention,' was approved by the Council in its Regulation (EEC) No 3179/78 (2);
Whereas the NAFO Convention entered into force on 1 January 1979;

Whereas it is the responsibility of the Community to take appropriate steps to ensure compliance by Community vessels with the said measure;
Whereas, under the terms of Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 170/83, it is incumbent upon the Council to establish the total allowable catches by stock or group of stocks, the share available for the Community and also the specific conditions under which the catches must be made; whereas, under the terms of Article 4 of the same Regulation, the share available for the Community is allocated between the Member States;
Whereas the NAFO Commission proposal on squid, made on 14 September 1984, does not provide for specific quotas for Canada and the Community; whereas the Community should therefore establish a quota for its own fishermen at a level which takes account both of the TAC proposed by NAFO for the entire stock and of the interests of Community fishermen;
Whereas information about catches by Community vessels should be made available to their respective Member States and to the Commission in order to ensure that these quotas are complied with,
1. From 1 January to 31 December 1985, catches of the species mentioned in Annex I, by vessels flying the flag of a Member State in the regulatory area as defined in Article 1 (2) of the NAFO Convention, shall be limited, within the parts of the regulatory area referred to in the said Annex, to the quotas set out therein.
2. By-catches of the species referred to in Annex I taken in those areas in which no allocation for a directed fishery is provided by this Regulation shall not exceed for each of the species on board the vessel, listed in Annex I, 2 500 kilograms or 10 % by weight of all fish on board the vessel, whichever is the greater.
1. Vessels fishing in the area referred to in Article 1 shall keep a log-book in which the information specified in Annex II is to be entered.
2. Vessels fishing in the area referred to in Article 1 shall transmit to the authorities of their flag State by the 16th day of each month in respect of the first half of that month and by the first day of each month in respect of the second half of the preceding month, reports concerning their catches in the said area. Such reports shall give catches in tonnes by species and quota area for the period covered by the report.
3. Vessels intending to fish in the regulatory area for a particular stock for which no quota has been allocated to the Community shall transmit to the authorities of their flag State notification of such an intention, at least 72 hours before starting to fish for an amount allocated to 'Others' for that stock, together, if possible, with an estimate of the projected catch. Vessels engaging in such a fishery shall transmit to the authorities of their flag State reports of catches from that stock, at 48-hour intervals.
1. Member States shall transmit regularly to the Commission the reports of vessels flying their flag which have been made in accordance with Article 2 (2). Reports received in respect of the first half of each month shall be transmitted to the Commission by the 20th day of the same month and those received in respect of the second half of each month shall be transmitted by the fifth day of the following month.
2. Member States shall transmit without delay to the Commission information received in accordance with Article 2 (3).
3. Member States shall transmit to the Commission by the 20th day of each month information concerning the landings made during the previous month by vessels flying their flag fishing in the area referred to in Article 1.

(b) official number of the vessel registered by the appropriate national authorities;
(c) home port of the vessel;
(d) name of owner or charterer of the vessel;
(e) a declaration that the master has been provided with a copy of the regulations in force in the regulatory area;
(f) principal target species of the vessel while fishing within the regulatory area;
(g) sub-areas where the vessel will be expected to fish.
1. When informed by the Executive Secretary of the North-West Atlantic Fisheries Organization that one of the quotas referred to in Article 2 (3) has been fully utilized, the Commission shall so inform the Member States, which shall take appropriate measures to ensure that fishing by vessels flying their flag for the stock concerned shall cease within three working days of the date of receipt by the Commission of the information from the Executive Secretary.
2. If the Commission has reason to believe, on the basis of the information received from the Member States, that the quota concerned has been fully utilized, it shall, without waiting for the notification from the Executive Secretary, so inform the Member States, which shall take appropriate measures to ensure that fishing by vessels flying their flag for the stock in question shall cease without delay.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply from 1 January to 31 December 1985.

COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) N째 3773/85
of 20 December 1985
concerning certain national aids in the agricultural sector which are incompatible with the common market but which the Kingdom of Spain is authorized to maintain on a traditional basis
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, and in particular Articles 80 and 91 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas, pursuant to Article 80 of the Act of Accession, the Kingdom of Spain is authorized to maintain, on a transitional and, in principle, degressive basis, national aids the abolition of which would not fail to have serious consequences both for producer and consumer prices; whereas a list and the exact wording of the national aids which fulfil these conditions appear in the Annex, together with their initial amounts, or, as the case may be, the criteria by which the initial amount may be determined;
Whereas, with respect to the rate of abolition and any scale of degressivity which should be fixed, it appears appropriate that, for the majority of the aids in question, the initial amounts should be considered as maximum rates for the first period and that, over the second period, these amounts shall be reduced in equal annual instalments, to be phased out completely at the end of the transitional period;
Whereas, until 31 December 1989, national aids granted by the Kingdom of Spain in the fruit and vegetables sector are subject to the special arrangements laid down in Article 135 (2) of the Act of Accession; whereas, pursuant to the first paragraph of Article 150, Article 80 applies to fruit and vegetables ony as from 1 January 1990;
Whereas the Kingdom of Spain may abolish the aids which are the subject of these transitional measures at a more rapid rate than that set out in the Annex; whereas it is essential that, in this event, Spain should inform the Commission of action taken; whereas a procedure should be specified whereby other derogations may be made, should the need arise, from the degressivity scale, pursuant to Article 80 (3) of the Act of Accession;
Whereas, under Protocol N째 2 annexed to the Treaty of Accession, the customs territory of the Community does not include, inter alia, the Canary Islands and whereas, therefore, Community refunds will apply to exports of agricultural products from the customs territory of the Community to the Canary Islands; whereas, accordingly, national aid for transporting wheat and wheat meal from the Spanish peninsular territory and the Balearic Islands to theCanary Islands may be granted only if the refund is fixed at a level lower than the amount of aid;
Whereas, pursuant to Article 80 (2) of the Act of Accession, equal access to the Spanish market must be ensured, whereas, in view of the joint declaration annexed to the Treaty of Accession of Spain and Portugal, this Regulation should be without prejudice to the adoption at a later date, should be need arise, of specific procedures designed to ensure equality of access on the Spanish market for products imported from other Member States if the grant of one or more of the aids referred to in this Regulation entails an actual modification on the Spanish market of the conditions of competition between imported and domestic products;
Whereas, pursuant to Article 2 (3) of the Treaty of Accession, the Community institutions may adopt, before accession, the measures referred to in Article 91 of the Act of Accession these measures entering into force only subject to, and on the date of the entry into force of that Treaty,
The national aids which are incompatible with the common market and which the Kingdom of Spain is authorized to maintain on a transitional basis are listed in the Annex, with an indication of their rate of abolition.
The Kingdom of Spain may abolish the aids referred to in Article 1 at a more rapid rate than that set out in the Annex. It shall inform the Commission without delay of any action it has taken.
Aid for transporting wheat and wheat meal from mainland Spain and the Balearic Islands to the Canary Islands may be granted only:
(a) where the amount of the refund applicable to the export in question is less than the maximum amount of transport aid given under heading 1.1. of the Annex;
(b) if the aid is limited to the difference between the two amounts referred to in (a);
(c) if the exporter provides proof that the products in question have been released for consumption in the Canary Islands.
Where the grant of one or more of the aids listed in the Annex entails an actual modification on the Spanish market of the conditions of competition between domestic products and products imported from the other Member States, the Council shall, in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 89 (1) of the Act of Accession, adopt the specific procedures required to ensure equality of access on the Spanish market.
Detailed rules for the application of this Regulation together with the possible derogations referred to in Article 80 (3) of the Act of Accession shall be drawn up in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 38 of Regulation (EEC) N째 136/66/EEC of the Council of 22 September 1966 on the establishment of a common organization of the market in oils and fats (1) or, as the case may be, in the corresponding Articles of the other Regulations on the common organization of agricultural markets.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 January 1986, subject to the entry into force of the Treaty of Accession of Spain and Portugal.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

12.12.2006 EN Official Journal of the European Union L 349/22
COMMISSION DIRECTIVE 2006/132/EC
of 11 December 2006
amending Council Directive 91/414/EEC to include procymidone as active substance
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 91/414/EEC of 15 July 1991 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (1), and in particular Article 6(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92 of 11 December 1992 laying down the detailed rules for the implementation of the first stage of the programme of work referred to in Article 8(2) of Council Directive 91/414/EEC concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (2) establishes a list of active substances to be assessed, with a view to their possible inclusion in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC. That list includes procymidone.
(2) For procymidone the effects on human health and the environment have been assessed in accordance with the provisions laid down in Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92 for a range of uses proposed by the notifier. By Commission Regulation (EC) No 933/94 of 27 April 1994 laying down the active substances of plant protection products and designating the Rapporteur Member State for the implementation of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92 (3), France was designated as Rapporteur Member State. France submitted the relevant assessment report and recommendations to the Commission on 15 January 2001 in accordance with Article 7(1)(c) of Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92.
(3) The assessment report has been reviewed by the Member States and the Commission within the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health.
(4) It has appeared from the various examinations made that plant protection products containing procymidone may be expected to satisfy the requirements laid down in Article 5(1)(a) and (b) of Directive 91/414/EEC, with regard to the uses which were examined and detailed in the Commission review report, provided that adequate risk mitigation measures are applied. As procymidone is a hazardous substance, its use should not be unrestricted. In particular there are concerns about its intrinsic toxic effects, including potential endocrine disrupting properties. There is at present no scientific consensus on the exact extent of the risk. Applying the precautionary principle, and taking into account the current state of scientific knowledge, risk mitigation measures should be imposed in order to achieve the high level of protection of human and animal health and the environment chosen in the Community.
(5) Articles 5(4) and 6(1) of Directive 91/414/EEC provide that inclusion of a substance in Annex I may be subject to restrictions and conditions. In this case, restrictions on the inclusion period and on the authorised crops are deemed necessary. The original measures presented to the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health, proposed the restriction of the inclusion period to seven years, so that Member States would give priority to reviewing plant protection products already on the market containing procymidone. In order to avoid discrepancies in the high level of protection sought, the inclusion in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC was intended to be limited to the uses of procymidone that have been actually assessed within the Community evaluation and for which the proposed uses were considered to comply with the conditions of Directive 91/414/EEC. This implies that other uses, which were not or only partially covered by this assessment, had first to be subject to a complete assessment, before their inclusion in Annex I of Directive 91/414/EEC could be considered. Finally, due to the hazardous nature of procymidone, it was considered necessary to provide for a minimum harmonisation at Community level of certain risk mitigation measures that were to be applied by Member States when granting authorisations.
(6) Under the procedures laid down by Directive 91/414/EEC, the approval of active substances, including the definition of risk management measures, is decided by the Commission. Member States bear the responsibility for the implementation, application and control of the measures intended to mitigate the risks generated by plant protection products. Concerns expressed by several Member States reflect their judgment that additional restrictions are necessary to reduce the risk to a level that can be considered acceptable and consistent with the high level of protection that is sought within the Community. At present, it is a question of risk management to set the adequate level of safety and protection for the continued production, commercialisation and use of procymidone.
(7) As a consequence of the above, the Commission re-examined its position. In order to correctly reflect the high level of protection of human and animal health and a sustainable environment sought in the Community, it considered appropriate, in addition to the principles set out in recital 5, to further reduce the period of inclusion to 18 months instead of seven years. This further reduces any risk by ensuring a priority re-assessment of this substance.
(8) It may be expected that plant protection products containing procymidone satisfy the requirements laid down in Article 5(1)(a) and (b) of Directive 91/414/EEC, with regard to the uses which were examined and detailed in the Commission review report and providing that the necessary risk mitigation measures are applied.
(9) Without prejudice to the conclusion that plant protection products containing procymidone may be expected to satisfy the requirements laid down in Article 5(1)(a) and (b) of Directive 91/414/EEC, it is appropriate to obtain further information on certain specific points. The potential endocrine-disrupting properties of procymidone have been assessed in test which follow the best currently available practice. The Commission is aware that the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) is developing test guidelines in order to further refine the assessment of potential endocrine disrupting properties. Therefore it is appropriate to require that procymidone should be subjected to such further testing as soon as agreed OECD test guidelines exist and that such studies should be presented by the notifier. In addition, Member States should require authorisation holders to provide information on the use of procymidone including any information on incidences on operator health.
(10) As with all substances included in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC, the status of procymidone could be reviewed pursuant to Article 5(5) of that Directive in the light of any new data becoming available. Equally, the fact that the inclusion of this substance in Annex I expires on a particular date does not prevent the inclusion being renewed according to the procedures laid down in the Directive.
(11) The experience gained from previous inclusions in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC of active substances assessed in the framework of Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92 has shown that difficulties can arise in interpreting the duties of holders of existing authorisations in relation to access to data. In order to avoid further difficulties it therefore appears necessary to clarify the duties of the Member States, especially the duty to verify that the holder of an authorisation demonstrates access to a dossier satisfying the requirements of Annex II to that Directive. However, this clarification does not impose any new obligations on Member States or holders of authorisations compared to the directives which have been adopted until now amending Annex I.
(12) A reasonable period should be allowed to elapse before an active substance is included in Annex I in order to permit Member States and the interested parties to prepare themselves to meet the new requirements which will result from the inclusion.
(13) Without prejudice to the obligations defined by Directive 91/414/EEC as a consequence of including an active substance in Annex I, Member States should be allowed a period of six months after inclusion to review existing authorisations of plant protection products containing procymidone to ensure that the requirements laid down by Directive 91/414/EEC, in particular in its Article 13 and the relevant conditions set out in Annex I, are satisfied. Member States should vary, replace or withdraw, as appropriate, existing authorisations. in accordance with the provisions of Directive 91/414/EEC. By derogation from the above deadline, a longer period should be provided for the submission and assessment of the complete Annex III dossier of each plant protection product for each intended use in accordance with the uniform principles laid down in Directive 91/414/EEC. Given the hazardous properties of procymidone, the period for Member States to verify whether plant protection products containing procymidone, alone or in combination with other authorised active substances, comply with the provisions of Annex VI should not exceed 18 months.
(14) It is therefore appropriate to amend Directive 91/414/EEC accordingly.
(15) The Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health did not deliver an opinion within the time limit laid down by its Chairman and the Commission therefore submitted to the Council a proposal relating to these measures. On the expiry of the period laid down in the second subparagraph of Article 19(2) of Directive 91/414/EEC, the Council had neither adopted the proposed implementing act nor indicated its opposition to the proposal for implementing measures and it is accordingly for the Commission to adopt these measures,
Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC is amended as set out in the Annex to this Directive.
Member States shall adopt and publish by 30 June 2007 at the latest the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with this Directive. They shall forthwith communicate to the Commission the text of those provisions and a correlation table between those provisions and this Directive.
They shall apply those provisions from 1 July 2007.
When Member States adopt those provisions, they shall contain a reference to this Directive or be accompanied by such a reference on the occasion of their official publication. Member States shall determine how such reference is to be made.
1. Member States shall in accordance with Directive 91/414/EEC, where necessary, amend or withdraw existing authorisations for plant protection products containing procymidone as an active substance by 30 June 2007. By that date they shall in particular verify that the conditions in Annex I to that Directive relating to procymidone 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.
2. By derogation from paragraph 1, for each authorised plant protection product containing procymidone, 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 procymidone. 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 for products containing procymidone, where necessary, amend or withdraw the authorisation by 30 June 2008.
This Directive shall enter into force on 1 January 2007.
This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

of 28 April 2000
opening and providing for the administration of an import tariff quota for young male bovine animals for fattening (1 July 2000 to 30 June 2001)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in beef and veal(1), and in particular Article 32(1) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1095/96 of 18 June 1996 on the implementation of the concessions set out in schedule CXL drawn up in the wake of the conclusion of the GATT XXIV.6 negotiations(2), and in particular Article 1(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Under schedule CXL the Community undertook to open an annual import tariff quota for 169000 head of young male bovine animals for fattening. The rules for applying that quota for the period 1 July 2000 to 30 June 2001 should be laid down.
(2) The supply requirements of certain regions of the Community which have a serious shortfall of bovine animals for fattening should be taken into account. As those requirements are particularly evident in Italy and Greece, priority must be given to satisfying demand in those two Member States.
(3) There should be a guarantee in particular of equal and continuing access to the said quota for all interested traders within the Community and of uninterrupted application of the customs duties laid down for the quota to all imports of the animals in question until the quota is used up.
(4) In view of the actual market situation, a method of management should be applied which is comparable to that used in the past for quotas bearing the same serial number, involving, in particular, a continuation of the method of allocation between traditional importers and traders actively involved in trade in live animals with third countries.
(5) Checks of those criteria call for applications to be submitted in the Member State where the trader is entered in the value added tax (VAT) register.
(6) In order to prevent speculation, import licences should be issued to traders solely for the quantities for which they have been allocated import rights.
(7) With a view to using up quota quantities completely, a closing date should be set for the submission of import licence applications and provision should be made for a further allocation of quantities not covered by licence applications submitted by that date.
(8) Provision should be made for the arrangements to be managed using import licences. To that end rules should be laid down in particular on the way applications are to be submitted and the information to be shown in applications and licences, where applicable by waiving or supplementing certain provisions of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3719/88 of 16 November 1988 laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences and advance fixing certificates for certain agricultural products(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1127/1999(4), and of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1445/95 of 26 June 1995 on rules of application for import and export licences in the beef and veal sector and repealing Regulation (EEC) No 2377/80(5), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2648/98(6).
(9) The application of this tariff quota requires effective checks on the specific destination of imports. Therefore, the animals must be fattened in the Member State which issues the import licence.
(10) A security must be lodged in order to guarantee that the animals are fattened for at least 120 days in designated production units. The amount of this security should cover the difference between the Common Customs Tariff (CCT) duty and the reduced duty applicable on the date of release for free circulation of the animals in question.
(11) The Management Committee for Beef and Veal has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its Chairman,
1. A tariff quota for 169000 young male bovine animals covered by CN codes 0102 90 05, 0102 90 29 or 0102 90 49 and intended for fattening in the Community is hereby opened for the period 1 July 2000 to 30 June 2001.
The serial number of the quota shall be 09.4005.
2. The customs import duty applicable to the quota referred to in paragraph 1 shall be EUR 582 per tonne plus 16 % ad valorem.
That rate of duty shall apply on condition that the imported animals are fattened in the Member State of import for at least 120 days.
1. Import rights for the quantities referred to in Article 1(1) shall be allocated to the Member States as follows:
>TABLE>
2. Within each of the quantities referred to in paragraph 1(a) and (b), import rights relating to:
- 80 % of the quantity shall be allocated upon application directly to importers who furnish proof of having imported animals under the Regulations referred to in Annex I; the number of head shall be allocated in proportion to the number of head imported under the Regulations in question,
- 20 % of the quantities shall be allocated upon application directly to traders who furnish proof that in 1999 they exported to and/or imported from third countries at least 50 live animals covered by CN code 010290, excluding imports under the Regulations referred to in Annex I.
Traders must be entered in the national value added tax (VAT) register.
Applications for import rights shall be presented:
- in Italy for the quantities referred to in paragraph 1(a),
- in Greece for the quantities referred to in paragraph 1(b).
3. The quantities referred to in paragraph 1(c) shall be allocated upon application to traders who furnish proof that in 1999 they exported to and/or imported from third countries at least 50 live animals covered by CN code 010290.
Applications for import rights for the quantities referred to in the first subparagraph shall be presented in a Member State - other than Italy or Greece - where the applicant is entered in the national value added tax register.
4. The quantities referred to in the second indent of the first subparagraph of paragraph 2 and in paragraph 3 shall be allocated to eligible traders in proportion to the quantities applied for.
5. Proof of import and/or export shall be provided solely by means of customs documents of release for free circulation or export documents.
Member States may accept copies of those documents duly certified by the competent authorities.
1. Traders who are no longer engaged in trade in live bovine animals on 1 June 2000 shall not qualify under the arrangements provided for in this Regulation.
2. Companies arising from mergers where each constituent part has rights pursuant to the first subparagraph of Article 2(2) shall enjoy the same rights as the companies from which they are formed.
1. No application shall be made for import rights for a number of head exceeding that available.
Where, under any one category referred to in Article 2(2) and (3), an applicant submits more than one application, all such applications shall be rejected.
2. For the purposes of Article 2(2) and (3), applications accompanied by the necessary proofs must reach the competent authorities not later than 6 June 2000.
3. As regards applications under Article 2(3), after verification of the documents presented. Member States shall forward to the Commission by 20 June 2000 at the latest a list of applicants and quantities applied for using the form set out in Annex II.
The Commission shall decide as soon as possible to what extent applications may be accepted. Where the quantities applied for exceed the quantities available, the Commission shall fix a single percentage reduction to be applied to the quantities applied for.
Where the application of the uniform percentage reduction provided for in the second subparagraph results in less than 50 head being allocated per application, the allocation shall be made by the Member States concerned by drawing lots for batches of 50 head. Where the remainder is less than 50 head, that number shall constitute a single batch.
4. As regards applications under Article 2(2), after verification of the documents presented, Italy and Greece shall forward to the Commission by 27 June 2000 at the latest a list of applicants and quantities applied for using the forms set out in Annexes II and III.
1. Any import of animals for which import rights have been allocated shall be subject to presentation of an import licence.
2. Regulations (EEC) No 3719/88 and (EC) No 1445/95 shall apply, subject to this Regulation.
3. Licence applications may be lodged solely:
- in the Member State in which the application for import rights has been lodged, and
- by traders to whom import rights have been allocated in accordance with Articles 2 and 4. Import rights allocated to traders entitle them to import licences for quantities equivalent to the rights allocated.
4. Licences shall be issued up to 30 November 2000 for a maximum of 50 % of the allocated import rights. Import licences for the remaining quantities shall be issued from 1 December 2000.
5. Licence applications and licences shall show:
(a) the country of origin in box 8;
(b) one of the eligible CN codes in box 16;
(c) the following endorsement in box 20:
"Live male bovine animals of a live weight not exceeding 300 kg per head (Regulation (EC) No 885/2000)."
1. Notwithstanding Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 1445/95, import licences shall be valid for 120 days from their date of issue within the meaning of Article 21(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3719/88. However, no licences shall be valid after 30 June 2001.
2. Licences shall be valid throughout the Community.
3. Article 8(4) of Regulation (EEC) No 3719/88 shall not apply.
1. At the time of import, the importer shall provide proof that he has:
- given a written undertaking to inform the competent authority of the Member State that issued the licence within one month of the farm or farms where the young bovine animals are to be fattened,
- lodged a security of an amount as laid down for each eligible CN code in Annex IV with the competent authority of the Member State that issued the licence guaranteeing that the animals imported will be fattened in that Member State for a period of at least 120 days from the date of import.
2. The animals covered by this Regulation shall be fattened in the Member State that issues the import licence.
3. Except in cases of force majeure, the security shall be relesed only if proof is furnished to the competent authority of the Member State that issued the licence that the young bovine animals:
(a) have been fattened on the farm or farms indicated pursuant to paragraph 1;
(b) have not been slaughtered before a period of 120 days from the date of import has elapsed;
or
(c) have been slaughtered for health reasons or have died as a result of sickness or accident before that period has elapsed.
The security shall be released immediately after such proof has been furnished.
However, where the time limit referred to in the first indent of paragraph 1 has not been observed, the security to be released shall be reduced by:
- 15 %, and by
- 2 % of the remaining amount for each day by which it has been exceeded.
The amounts not released shall be forfeited and retained as customs duties.
4. If the proof referred to in paragraph 3 is not furnished within 180 days from the date of import, the security shall be forfeited and retained as customs duty.
However, if such proof is not furnished within 180 days but is produced within six months following the said period of 180 days, the amount forfeited, less 15 % of the security, shall be repaid.
1. Quantities not covered by import licence applications at 28 February 2001 shall be awarded under a further allocation, irrespective of the allocation of import rights between Member States referred to in Article 2(1) and of the two different schemes provided for in the first and second indents of Article 2(2).
2. To that end, by 7 March 2001 at the latest the Member States shall send the Commission details of quantities not covered by import licence applications received.
3. The Commission shall take a decision as quickly as possible as regards the quantities remaining.
4. Quantities remaining shall be allocated upon application to traders proving that in 1999 they exported to and/or imported from third countries at least 50 live animals coverd by CN code 010290.
Applications for import rights shall be presented in the Member State where the applicant is entered in the national value added tax register.
5. For the purposes of applying this Article, Articles 4 to 7 shall apply mutatis mutandis. However, the dates mentioned in Article 4(2) and (3) shall be replaced by 30 March 2001 and 6 April 2001 respectively.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2072/84 of 29 June 1984 on common rules for imports of certain textile products originating in China (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 4132/86 (2), and in particular Article 12 thereof,
Whereas Article 12 of Regulation (EEC) No 2072/84 lays down the conditions under which quantitative limits may be established; whereas imports into France of certain textile products (categories 15 B, 68 and 71), specified in the Annex hereto and originating in China have exceeded the levels referred to in paragraph 3 of the said Article 1;
Whereas, in accordance with paragraph 5 of the said Article 12 of Regulation (EEC) No 2072/84, on 23 October 1987 China was notified of a request for consultations;
Whereas pending the outcome of the requested consultations, imports into France were made subject to a provisional quantitative restriction for the period from 23 October to 22 January 1988 by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3332/87 (3);
Whereas, in the course of consultations held on 15 and 18 December 1987, it was agreed that imports into France of products falling within categories 15 B, 68 and 71 should be subject to quantitative limits for the year 1988;
Whereas paragraph 13 of the said Article 12 ensures that the quantitative limits are observed by means of a double-checking system in accordance with Annex V to Regulation (EEC) No 2072/84;
Whereas the products in question exported from China to the Community between 23 October 1987 and 31 December 1987 must be set off against the quantitative limits which have been introduced by Regulation (EEC) No 3332/87;
Whereas these quantitative limits should not prevent the importation of products covered by them shipped from China before the date of entry into force of Regulation (EEC) No 3332/87,
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Textile Commttee,
Without prejudice to the provisions of Article 2, imports into France of textile products of categories 15 B, 68 and 71 originating in China and specified in the Annex hereto, shall be subject to the quantitative limits set out in that Annex.
1. Products as referred to in Article 1 shipped from China to France before the date of entry into force of Regulation (EEC) No 3332/87 and not yet released for free circulation, shall be so released subject to the presentation of a bill of lading or other transport document proving that shipment actually took place during that period.
2. Imports of products shipped from China to France after the entry into force of Regulation (EEC) No 3332/87 continue to be subject to the double-checking system described in Annex V to Regulation (EEC) No 2072/84.
3. All quantities of products shipped from China from 1 January 1988 onwards and released for free circulation are to be deducted from the quantitative limits laid down by this Regulation.
These limits shall not, however, prevent the importation of products covered by it but shipped from China before the date of entry into force of Regulation (EEC) No 3332/87.
In Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 3332/87, the date '22 January 1988' is replaced by the date '31 December 1987'.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply until 31 December 1988.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

(1) Whereas Council Directive 90/426/EEC on animal health conditions governing the movement and imports from third countries of equidae(3), as last amended by the Act of Accession of Austria, Finland and Sweden, lays down the measures to be taken in relation to African horse sickness;
(2) Whereas import conditions have been established by Commission Decision 97/10/EC(4) for registered horses in relation to temporary admission and imports into the Community from South Africa;
(3) Whereas fatal cases of African horse sickness (AHS) have been declared in horses kept within the surveillance zone in Western Cape Province of South Africa, which was established by Decision 97/10/EC with regard to imports of registered horses from the disease free Metropolitan area of Cape Town;
(4) Whereas the competent veterinary authorities in South Africa have taken the necessary measures to control the disease, including vaccination of susceptible animals within an area at risk situated within the surveillance zone;
(5) Whereas the presence of this disease in the surveillance zone of the Western Cape province is liable to constitute a serious danger for Community equidae; whereas moreover the recourse to vaccination in an area close to the disease free zone precludes from further regionalisation in accordance with Community legislation and internationally accepted health standards;
(6) Whereas the authorities have suspended any exports of registered horses from the disease free zone to Member States of the European Union; whereas it is nevertheless necessary to adopt protection measures at Community level with regard to imports of registered horses from South Africa;
(7) Whereas temporary admission, permanent imports and transits of registered horses from the Metropolitan area of Cape Town must be suspended;
(8) Whereas this decision is in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Veterinary Committee,

amending Council Directive 91/414/EEC to include molinate, thiram and ziram as active substances

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 91/414/EEC of 15 July 1991 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market(1), as last amended by Commission Directive 2003/79/EC(2), and in particular Article 6(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92 of 11 December 1992 laying down the detailed rules for the implementation of the first stage of the programme of work referred to in Article 8(2) of Council Directive 91/414/EEC concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2266/2000(4), establishes a list of active substances to be assessed, with a view to their possible inclusion in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC. That list includes molinate, thiram and ziram.
(2) For those active substances the effects on human health and the environment have been assessed in accordance with the provisions laid down in Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92 for a range of uses proposed by the notifiers. By Commission Regulation (EC) No 933/94 of 27 April 1994 laying down the active substances of plant protection products and designating the rapporteur Member State for the implementation of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92(5), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2230/95(6), the following rapporteur Member States were designated, which in turn submitted the relevant assessment reports and recommendations to the Commission in accordance with Article 7(1)(c) of Regulation (EEC) No 3600/92. For molinate the rapporteur Member State was Portugal, and all relevant information was submitted on 30 November 1998. For thiram the Rapporteur Member State was Belgium, and the relevant information was submitted on 15 January 1998. For ziram the rapporteur Member State was Belgium and the relevant information was submitted on 9 June 1998.
(3) Those assessment reports have been reviewed by the Member States and the Commission within the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health.
(4) The reviews of all active substances were finalised on 4 July 2003 in the format of the Commission review reports for molinate, thiram and ziram.
(5) The reviews of molinate, thiram and ziram did not reveal any open questions or concerns, which would have required a consultation of the Scientific Committee on Plants.
(6) It has appeared from the various examinations made that plant protection products containing molinate, thiram or ziram may be expected to satisfy, in general, the requirements laid down in Article 5(1)(a) and (b) of Directive 91/414/EEC, in particular with regard to the uses which were examined and detailed in the Commission review report. It is therefore appropriate to include these active substances in Annex I, in order to ensure that in all Member States the authorisations of plant protection products containing these active substances can be granted in accordance with the provisions of that Directive.
(7) A reasonable period should be allowed to elapse before an active substance is included in Annex I in order to permit Member States and the interested parties to prepare themselves to meet the new requirements which will resulting from the inclusion.
(8) After inclusion, Member States should be allowed a reasonable period within which to implement the provisions of Directive 91/414/EEC as regards plant protection products containing molinate, thiram or ziram, and in particular, to review existing authorisations to ensure that the conditions regarding those active substances set out in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC are satisfied. A longer period should be provided for the submission and assessment of the complete dossier of each plant protection product in accordance with the uniform principles laid down in Directive 91/414/EEC.
(9) It is therefore appropriate to amend Directive 91/414/EEC accordingly.
(10) The measures provided for in this Directive are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC is amended as set out in the Annex to this Directive.
Member States shall adopt and publish by 31 January 2005 at the latest the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with this Directive. They shall forthwith inform the Commission thereof.
They shall apply those provisions from 1 February 2005.
When Member States adopt those provisions, they shall contain a reference to this Directive or be accompanied by such a reference on the occasion of their official publication. Member States shall determine how such reference is to be made.
1. Member States shall review the authorisation for each plant protection product containing molinate, thiram or ziram to ensure that the conditions relating to those active substances set out in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC are complied with. Where necessary and by 31 January 2005 at the latest, they shall amend or withdraw the authorisation.
2. Member States shall, for each authorised plant protection product containing molinate, thiram or ziram 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 31 July 2004 at the latest, 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. 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. Where necessary and by 31 July 2008 at the latest, they shall amend or withdraw the authorisation.
This Directive shall enter into force on 1 August 2004.
This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 26 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas:
(1) It is in the interest of the Community to suspend partially or totally the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties for a number of new products not listed in the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 (1).
(2) A number of products which are referred to in the said Regulation should be withdrawn from the list in the Annex because it is no longer in the Community's interest to maintain suspension of autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties or because the description needs to be altered in order to take account of technical product developments and economic trends on the market.
(3) Accordingly, products whose description needs to be altered should be regarded as new products.
(4) The validity period of the measure should be 1 July 2006 to 31 December 2008, in order to be able to carry out economic examinations of the individual suspensions in that period. Eight years of experience have shown the need to provide for an expiry date of the suspensions listed in the Annex to this Regulation to ensure that account is taken of technological and economic changes. This should not exclude the premature termination of certain measures or their continuation beyond this period, if economic reasons are submitted, in accordance with the principles laid down in the Commission Communication concerning autonomous tariff suspensions and quotas (2).
(5) Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 should therefore be amended accordingly,
The Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 is hereby amended as follows:
1. the products listed in Annex I to this Regulation shall be inserted;
2. the products for which the CN codes are set out in Annex II to this Regulation shall be deleted.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 1 July 2006.
However, for products with TARIC codes 5205310010 and 8414308920, it shall apply from 1 January 2006.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

88/12/EEC: Commission Decision of 16 December 1987 renewing and amending Decision 85/15/EEC authorizing Ireland to continue to apply certain protective measures pursuant to Article 108 (3) of the EEC Treaty (Only the English text is authentic)

COMMISSION DECISION
of 16 December 1987
renewing and amending Decision 85/15/EEC authorizing Ireland to continue to apply certain protective measures pursuant to Article 108 (3) of the EEC Treaty
(Only the English text is authentic)
(88/12/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 108 (3) thereof,
Whereas by Decision 85/15/EEC (1), amended by Decision 87/150/EEC (2), the Commission authorized Ireland to continue, until 19 December 1987, to apply certain protective measures to capital movements liberalized in accordance with the Council Directive of 11 May 1960 (3), as last amended by Directive 86/566/EEC (4),
Whereas Ireland has claimed that its balance of payments is still in difficulties and has requested a renewal of certain protective measures, in accordance with Article 2 (3) of Decision 85/15/EEC; whereas, however, relaxations are to be made by the Irish authorities, with effect from 1 January 1988, in the protective measures now in force for which renewal is requested;
Whereas it emerges from the Commission's review of the overall economic situation of Ireland that the improvement in Ireland's external position since 1984 permits a significant relaxation in the restrictions now applied to outward portfolio investment; whereas, however, if this improvement is to continue and be consolidated, notably by means of a reduction in the public sector deficit, and in more satisfactory growth conditions, the maintenance, for a relatively short period, of protective measures in this area is justified;
Whereas the authorization to apply the protective measures should be renewed and amended accordingly,
Decision 85/15/EEC is hereby amended as follows:
1. Article 1 is replaced by the following:
'Article 1
1. Ireland is authorized, temporarily and within the limits of the measures listed in the Annex hereto, to prohibit or to subject to prior exchange authorization the conclusion or performance of transactions and transfers relating to the capital movements liberalized at the date of this Decision, pursuant to Article 1 of the Council Directive of 11 May 1960 (First Directive for the implementation of Article 67), as last amended by Directive 86/566/EEC.
2. Unless otherwise provided for by the Commission under the conditions laid down in Article 2 (3), this Decision shall remain in force until 31 December 1988.'
2. The Annex is hereby replaced by the following:
'ANNEX
1.2 // // // Type of operation // Restrictions authorized by way of derogation from Community obligations // // // // // Operations in securities // Acquisition by residents of foreign securities or of domestic securities issued on a foreign market may be prohibited or made subject to authorization. The restriction shall not apply to; // // - the acquisition by residents of foreign securities when such acquisition is financed from the proceeds of the sale of other foreign securities belonging to the resident or from borrowing abroad; // // - the acquisition of securities issued by the Communities or by the European Investment Bank and dealt in on a stock exchange. // // From 1 January 1988, the restriction shall not apply to: // // - the acquisition by residents (aged 18 years or over) of foreign securities or of domestic bonds issued on a foreign market, subject to a limit of ÂŁ Irl 5 000 per investor and an overall limit of ÂŁ Irl 30 million; // // - the acquisition by resident insurance companies, pension funds and unit trusts of foreign securities or of domestic bonds issued on a foreign market, up to a limit of 12,5 % of their net Irish pound cash flow (1) in the previous year; // // - the acquisition by residents of domestic securities (other than bonds) issued on a foreign market and of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) of resident companies. // //
(1) Net Irish pound cash flows means:
(i) in respect of insurance companies:
- in relation to business written in Ireland, premium income in Irish pounds plus income on investments, less expenditure in Irish pounds;
(ii) in respect of pension funds:
- in relation to Irish liabilities, annual contributions (excluding discretionary contributions) plus income on investments less expenditure in Irish pounds;
(iii) in respect of unit trusts:
- in relation to investments by Irish residents, annual subscriptions plus income on investments, less expenditure in Irish pounds (including redemptions).'
This Decision is adressed to Ireland.

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1452/2001 of 28 June 2001 introducing specific measures for certain agricultural products for the French overseas departments, amending Directive 72/462/EEC and repealing Regulations (EEC) No 525/77 and (EEC) No 3763/91 (Poseidom) (1), and in particular Articles 3(6) and 6(5) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 14/2004 of 30 December 2003 establishing the supply balances and Community aid for the supply of certain essential products for human consumption, for processing and as agricultural inputs and for the supply of live animals and eggs to the outermost regions under Council Regulations (EC) No 1452/2001, (EC) No 1453/2001 and (EC) No 1454/2001 (2), establishes forecast supply balances and fixes Community aid.
(2) Current implementation of the annual supply balances for cereals, vegetable oils and processed fruit and vegetable products and for the supply of live animals for the French overseas departments shows that the quantities set for supplies of the above products are below requirements owing to unexpectedly higher demand.
(3) There has been special demand for supplies of tinned tomatoes. The quantities of seed potatoes in the supply balance exceed current implementation. In the case of female buffalo, chicks and eggs, certain characteristics of the products to be supplied should be brought into line with the needs that have become apparent on holdings in the French overseas departments.
(4) The quantities and descriptions of the above products and animals should be brought into line with actual needs in the French overseas departments concerned.
(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinions of the Management Committees concerned,
Regulation (EC) No 14/2004 is hereby amended as follows:
1. parts 1 to 4 of Annex I are replaced by the text in Annex I hereto;

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1624/2005
of 4 October 2005
derogating from Council Regulation (EC) No 866/2004 as regards citrus fruit crossing the line in Cyprus
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 866/2004 of 29 April 2004 on a regime under Article 2 of Protocol No 10 of the Act of Accession (1), and in particular Article 4(2), second subparagraph, thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 4(2), first subparagraph, of Regulation (EC) No 866/2004 provides that goods which are wholly obtained in the areas of the Republic of Cyprus not under the effective control of the Government of the Republic of Cyprus or have undergone their last, substantial, economically justified processing or working in an undertaking equipped for that purpose in those areas are not subject to customs duties or charges having equivalent effect when they are introduced in the areas under the effective control of the Government of the Republic of Cyprus, unless they are of a kind eligible for export refunds or intervention measures.
(2) Article 4(2) of Regulation (EC) No 866/2004 was amended by Council Regulation (EC) No 293/2005 (2) to extend the access to the abovementioned duty-free regime, on a case-by-case basis, to certain products of a kind eligible for export refunds or intervention measures, provided that conditions and arrangements for that access ensure that the financial interests of the Community can be effectively protected.
(3) Facilitating the movement of citrus fruit would contribute to the process of economic development of the areas not under the effective control of the Government of the Republic of Cyprus, given the interest amongst economic operators in Cyprus in marketing citrus fruit produced in those areas on the Community market.
(4) Council Regulation (EC) No 2200/96 of 28 October 1996 on the common organisation of the market in fruit and vegetables (3), Council Regulation (EC) No 2202/96 of 28 October 1996 introducing a Community aid scheme for producers of certain citrus fruits (4) and Commission Regulation (EC) No 2111/2003 of 1 December 2003 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 2202/96 introducing a Community aid scheme for producers of certain citrus fruits (5) provide for checks to ensure compliance with Community rules in the fruit and vegetable sectors. Pursuant to those Regulations, the Government of the Republic of Cyprus should ensure through appropriate checks that products covered by this Regulation are not subject to export refunds and intervention measures.
(5) Since the level of refunds paid for the export from the Community of citrus fruits is low, the risk of fraud under the measures provided for in this Regulation is limited. The Government of the Republic of Cyprus should, nevertheless, ensure that the rule of Community origin as set out in the second indent of Article 35(9) of Regulation (EC) No 2200/96 and in Article 11(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 800/1999 of 15 April 1999 laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of export refunds on agricultural products (6) is complied with.
(6) In accordance with Article 8 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1480/2004 of 10 August 2004 laying down specific rules concerning goods arriving from the areas not under the effective control of the Government of Cyprus in the areas in which the Government exercises effective control (7), the Turkish Cypriot Chamber of Commerce and the authorities of the Republic of Cyprus have to communicate to the Commission the information enabling the Commission to monitor the trade flows across the ‘green line’.
(7) Accordingly, it does not appear necessary to establish further conditions for the duty-free access of citrus fruits obtained in the areas not under the effective control of the Government of the Republic of Cyprus.
(8) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fresh Fruit and Vegetables,
By way of derogation from the first subparagraph of Article 4(2) of Regulation (EC) No 866/2004, citrus fruit crossing the line within the meaning of that Regulation falling within CN code 0805 shall not be subject to customs duties or charges having equivalent effect.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1682/92 (2) sets the level of accession compensatory amounts for milk and milk products for trade between the Community of Ten and Portugal, and between Portugal and third countries; whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 739/93 of 17 March 1993 on the application of the common price for milk powder in Portugal (3) lays down that from 1 April 1993 the common price for milk powder will be applied in Portugal and that as a consequence the accession compensatory amounts provided for in Regulation (EEC) No 1682/92 should no longer be applied; whereas the aforementioned factors lead to the repeal of the said Regulation;
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3812/90 (4), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3837/92 (5), lays down, for 1993, the indicative ceilings for the export of certain milk products to Portugal under the supplementary trade mechanism; whereas the Council decided in Regulation (EEC) No 743/93 (6) to repeal Council Regulation (EEC) No 3659/90 of 11 December 1990 on products subject to the supplementary trade mechanism during the second stage of Portuguese accession (7), milk products being no longer subject to the said mechanism from 1 April 1993 as a consequence;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Beef and Veal,
Regulation (EEC) No 1682/92 is hereby repealed.

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in wine(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 806/2003(2), and in particular Article 46(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) The exceptional weather conditions during the period of ripening of the grapes in wine-growing zones A and B have resulted in a significant and irreversible reduction in the acidity of the grapes and grape must. The particular weather conditions observed during the summer of 2003 are similar to those normally found in wine-growing areas located much further south.
(2) The total level of acidity of the grapes harvested on maturity in the regions concerned is abnormally low and incompatible with good winemaking and the satisfactory conservation of the wine.
(3) The Member States concerned should be permitted therefore to authorise the acidification of grape must and wine from zones A and B for the 2003 harvest under the conditions laid down in points E.2, E.3 and E.7 of Annex V to Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999.
(4) The measure provided for in this Regulation is in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Wine,
In derogation from the rules laid down in Annex V, point E.1, to Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999, the Member States may authorise the acidification of grape must and wine from the 2003 harvest in wine-growing zones A and B under the conditions laid down in points E.2, E.3 and E.7 of that Annex.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

(Text with EEA relevance)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Directive 2002/32/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 May 2002 on undesirable substances in animal feed (1), and in particular Article 8(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Directive 2002/32/EC provides that the use of products intended for animal feed which contain levels of undesirable substances exceeding the maximum levels laid down in Annex I to that Directive is prohibited.
(2) When Directive 2002/32/EC was adopted, the Commission stated that Annex I to that Directive would be reviewed on the basis of updated scientific risk assessments and taking into account the prohibition of any dilution of contaminated non-complying products intended for animal feed.
(3) On a request from the Commission, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) adopted an opinion relating to aldrin and dieldrin on 9 November 2005 (2).
(4) Fish feed, containing relatively high proportion of fish oil in the formulation, was found to contain significant levels of aldrin/dieldrin. It is therefore appropriate to amend the existing provisions, based on the conclusions of the scientific opinion and available monitoring data.
(5) On a request from the Commission, EFSA adopted an opinion relating to endosulfan on 20 June 2005 (3).
(6) Based on the conclusions of the scientific opinion and available monitoring data, it is appropriate to amend the maximum level for endosulfan in crude vegetable oil in order to take into account to a certain extent the concentration of endosulfan in the crude vegetable oil compared to the level in the oilseed.
(7) On a request from the Commission, EFSA adopted an opinion relating to hexachlorocyclohexanes (α, β, γ HCH) on 4 July 2005 (4) and an opinion on endrin on 9 November 2005 (5).
(8) Based on the conclusions of the scientific opinions and available monitoring data, no modifications to the existing maximum levels as regards hexachlorocyclohexanes and endrin are necessary.
(9) As regards aldrin, dieldrin, chlordane, DDT, endrin, heptachlor, hexachlorobenzene and hexachlorocyclohexanes (HCH), the term ‘fats’ should be replaced by the terms ‘fats and oils’ to indicate clearly that all fats and oils, including animal fat, vegetable oils, fish oil, are covered.
(10) Directive 2002/32/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(11) The measures provided for in this Directive are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
Annex I to Directive 2002/32/EC is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Directive.
Member States shall bring into force the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with this Directive 12 months after the entry into force at the latest. They shall forthwith communicate to the Commission the text of those provisions and a correlation table between those provisions and this Directive.
When Member States adopt those provisions, they shall contain a reference to this Directive or be accompanied by such a reference on the occasion of their official publication. Member States shall determine how such reference is to be made.
This Directive shall enter into force on the 20th day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

COUNCIL DIRECTIVE 93/5/EEC of 25 February 1993 on assistance to the Commission and cooperation by the Member States in the scientific examination of questions relating to food
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 100a thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),
In cooperation with the European Parliament (2),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (3),
Whereas the completion and smooth operation of the internal market for foodstuffs make it necessary to examine and evaluate scientific questions relating to food, particularly when these questions concern human health;
Whereas consumers are entitled to a Community food policy which promotes safe food particularly regarding nutritional, microbiological and toxicological issues;
Whereas in order to assist with this task the Commission set up a Scientific Committee for Food by Decision 74/234/EEC (4);
Whereas consultation of this Committee is currently required, in relation to questions of public health, by a number of Directives such as those on dietetic foodstuffs, materials and articles intended to come into contact with foodstuffs, additives, flavourings and extraction solvents;
Whereas the Scientific Committee for Food should be involved much more widely in Community policies that affect food, diet and public health;
Whereas the process of achieving a satisfactory scientific base for matters relating to food safety must, in the interests of consumers and industry be independent, transparent and effective and must reflect the situation existing in all Member States;
Whereas in order to ensure the smooth running of this Committee the Community needs scientific support from the Member States;
Whereas the Community also needs scientific support for other questions of public interest essential to the operation of the internal market, such as the handling of incidents involving food contamination and in general where it is necessary to lay down new rules concerning foodstuffs which may affect human health;
Whereas, in order to ensure that these tasks are carried out, the Commission must have access to the information and assistance available in the Member States, which must facilitate the accomplishment of its tasks;
Whereas in the Member States there are various bodies whose task is to provide their governments with scientific back-up on questions concerning foodstuffs; whereas it is necessary to use these resources effectively to support Community activities through cooperation;
Whereas Member States shall take all the necessary measures including financial measures, within the limits of their resources, to enable their competent authorities and bodies to cooperate with the Commission and lend it the assistance it needs in the scientific examination of questions of public interest relating to food;
Whereas there must therefore be an approximation of the provisions governing these bodies in order that they may cooperate with the Commission with the aim especially of drawing up future rules to ensure the free movement of foodstuffs, on the basis of all the scientific data available;
Whereas it is necessary to enhance and strengthen the powers and expertise of the Scientific Committee for Food, particularly with the aim of increasing the effectiveness of the Community in food issues;
Whereas it is necessary to make provision for third countries to participate in this cooperation;
Whereas the Commission must be responsible for the management of this cooperation and the Member States for their part must assist in this task, in the context of the Standing Committee for Food;
Whereas the completion of the internal market should give rise to increased participation of the Community in meetings and work on foodstuffs of international organizations and also in bilateral relations,
1. Member States shall take the necessary measures to enable their competent authorities and bodies to cooperate with the Commission and lend it the assistance it needs in the scientific examination of questions of public interest relating to food, particularly in the field of public health, through disciplines such as those associated with medicine, nutrition, toxicology, biology, hygiene, food technology, biotechnology, novel foods and processes, risk assessment techniques, physics and chemistry.
2. (a) The cooperation procedure of this Directive shall apply when a Council act requires the opinion of the Scientific Committee for Food.
(b) Where appropriate, the application of the cooperation procedure of ths Directive to other questions relating to the protection of the health and safety of persons arising from the consumption of food shall be decided in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 5.
Each Member State shall designate the authority or body which will be responsible for the cooperation with the Commission and for distribution of work to appropriate institutes within Member States as regards the tasks laid down in Article 3 and shall notify the Commission accordingly.
The Commission shall publish in the Official Journal of the European Communities and update the list of designated authorities referred to in the preceding paragraph.
Each designated authority shall send to the Commission a list of the institutes participating in the cooperation procedure in its jurisdiction, and any modifications to that list. The Commission shall circulate this information to the above authorities and other interested parties.
1. The principal tasks to be carried out by the institutes participating in the cooperation shall include those listed in the Annex.
2. The following measures shall be adopted in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 5:
- establishment of rules for the administrative management of the cooperation, including:
- measures to ensure the transparency of recommendations made by the Scientific Committee for Food,
- procedures for the presentation and appraisal of dossiers;

amending, for the purposes of adapting to technical progress, Annex IV to Directive 2011/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards an exemption for lead in polyvinyl chloride sensors in in-vitro diagnostic medical devices
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Directive 2011/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2011 on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (1), and in particular Article 5(1)(a) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Directive 2011/65/EU prohibits the use of lead in electrical and electronic equipment placed on the market.
(2) Blood, body fluid and body gas analysers serve as a critical analytical instrument in many diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Lead is required as a stabiliser in the processing of the PVC for the sensor cards. Although research of substitutes is ongoing, a suitable alternative is not yet available. The performance of tested alternatives both to lead in PVC and to PVC itself does not meet the specific technical requirements.
(3) Both the substitution of lead in PVC sensor cards for in-vitro diagnostic medical devices for blood, body fluid and body gas analysis and the elimination of lead via substitution of PVC in these applications are technically impracticable.
(4) The use of lead in PVC sensors for blood, body fluid and body gas analysis used in in-vitro diagnostic medical devices should therefore be exempted until 31 December 2018. In view of the innovation cycles for medical devices this is a short transition period which is unlikely to have adverse impacts on innovation.
(5) Directive 2011/65/EU should therefore be amended accordingly,
Annex IV to Directive 2011/65/EU is amended as set out in the Annex to this Directive.
1. Member States shall bring into force the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with this Directive by the last day of the ninth month after entry into force at the latest. They shall forthwith communicate to the Commission the text of those provisions.
When Member States adopt those provisions, they shall contain a reference to this Directive or be accompanied by such a reference on the occasion of their official publication. Member States shall determine how such reference is to be made.
2. Member States shall communicate to the Commission the text of the main provisions of national law which they adopt in the field covered by this Directive.
This Directive shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

2. ceramic money-box in the form of a figurine of an elderly man (beggar), about 18 cm high, with face and clothes painted on, having a slot for inserting coins and with a stopper made of soft rubber set into a round hole in the base through which the coins can be extracted;
3. ceramic money-box in the form of a penguin, about 30 cm high, with both a slot in the back for inserting coins and a padlock at the base;
4. plastic money-box in the form of a penguin, about 16 cm high, with a red scarf and s slot in the back for inserting coins;
5. money-box in the form of a stylized figure of a child in painted wood, about 16 cm high, consisting of a cylindrical container with a slot for inserting coins and surmounted by a wooden peg, which can be taken out in order to extract the coins and which is secured to three spheres representing the arms and nodding head;
6. metal money-box in the form of a miniature letter-box (about 12 cm high, with a base approximately 5 Ă 6 cm), painted red, having a hole in the back for hanging on the wall, a slot in the front for inserting coins and a small door with a lock;
Whereas the Common Customs Tariff annexed to Council Regulation (EEC) No 950/68 (2), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 604/83 (3), lists under heading No 69.13 inter alia statuettes and other ornaments, under heading No 97.02, dolls, and under heading No 97.03 inter alia other toys, under heading No 39.07, articles of plastic materials described in heading Nos 39.01 to 39.06, under heading No 44.27 inter alia ornaments or other fancy articles of wood, under heading No 73.40, other articles of iron or steel, and under heading No 83.06 inter alia ornaments of base metal; whereas for the classification of the aforementioned goods the abovementioned headings can be considered;

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 September 2003 on additives for use in animal nutrition (1), and in particular Article 9(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provides for the authorisation of additives for use in animal nutrition and for the grounds and procedures for granting such authorisation.
(2) The preparation Bacillus cereus var. toyoi (NCIMB 40112/CNCM I-1012), belonging to the group of ‘microorganisms’, was authorised in accordance with Council Directive 70/524/EEC (2), in particular, by Commission Regulation (EC) No 256/2002 (3) without a time limit for use for piglets, until two months, and for sows, from one week prior to farrowing until weaning. This additive was subsequently entered in the Community Register of Feed Additives as an existing product, in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.
(3) In accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, an application for an amendment of the authorisation of that preparation was submitted to allow its use in feed for sows from service to weaning. That application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of that Regulation.
(4) The European Food Safety Authority (the Authority) concluded in its opinion of 7 March 2007 that the preparation Bacillus cereus var. toyoi NCIMB 40112/CNCM I-1012 does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment (4). It further concluded that the preparation does not present any other risk which would, in accordance with Article 5(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, exclude authorisation. The Authority does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post market monitoring. It also verified the report on the method of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Community Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.
(5) The assessment of that preparation shows that the conditions provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 are satisfied.
(6) Regulation (EC) No 256/2002 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(7) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 256/2002 is replaced by the text in the Annex to this Regulation.

Council Regulation (EEC) No 1569/84 of 4 June 1984 opening, allocating and providing for the administration of a Community tariff quota for certain polyester films falling within subheading ex 39.01 C III a) of the Common Customs Tariff
|
COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 1569/84
of 4 June 1984
opening, allocating and providing for the administration of a Community tariff quota for certain polyester films falling within subheading ex 39.01 C III a) of the Common Customs Tariff
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 28 thereof,
Whereas the production of polyester film, uncoated, having a thickness of not more than 12 micrometres, is currently insufficient in the Community to meet the requirements of the user industries in the Community; whereas, consequently, Community supplies of products of this type currently depend to a considerable extent on imports from third countries; whereas it is in the Community's interest to suspend partially the Common Customs Tariff duty for the products in question, within the Community tariff quota, of an appropriate volume for a relatively limited period; whereas, in order not to call into question the development prospects of this production in the Community while ensuring an adequate supply to satisfy user industries, it is advisable to limit the benefits of the tariff quota to products used for the manufacture of magnetic video tapes, to open this quota free of duty for the period 1 July to 31 December 1984 and to fix the volume at 200 tonnes;
Whereas, in particular, equal and continuous access to the quota should be ensured for all Community importers and the rate of duty for the tariff quota should be applied consistently to all imports until the quota is exhausted; whereas, in the light of these principles, arrangements for the utilization of the tariff quota based on an allocation among Member States would seem to be consistent with the Community nature of the quota; whereas, to correspond as closely as possible to the actual trend in the market in the product in question, allocation of the quota should be in proportion to the requirements of the Member States as calculated by reference to statistics of imports from third countries during a representative reference period and to the economic outlook for the quota period in question;
Whereas, however, since the quota is an autonomous Community tariff quota intended to cover import needs arising in the Community, for experimental purposes, the quota volume may be allocated on the basis of the temporary import needs from third countries expressed by each of the Member States; whereas these arrangements for allocation will equally ensure the uniform application of the Common Customs Tariff;
Whereas, to take account of possible import trends for the product concerned, the quota volume should be divided into two instalments, the first being allocated between certain Member States and the second held as a reserve to meet subsequent requirements of Member States which have used up their initial shares and any additional requirements which might arise in the other Member States; whereas, to give importers of the Member States some degree of certainty, the first instalment of the tariff quota should be fixed at a relatively high level, which in this case could be 170 tonnes;
Whereas initial shares may be used up at different rates; whereas, to avoid disruption of supplies on this account, it should be provided that any Member State which has almost used up its initial share should draw an additional share from the reserve; whereas, each time its additional share is almost used up, a Member State should draw a further share, and so on as many times as the reserve allows; whereas the initial and additional shares be valid until the end of the quota period; whereas this form of administration requires close collaboration between the Member States and the Commission, which latter must be in a position to keep account of the extent to which the quotas have been used up and to inform the Member States accordingly;
Whereas, since the Kingdom of Belgium, the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg are united within and jointly represented by the Benelux Economic Union, any measure concerning the administration of the shares allocated to that economic union may be carried out by any one of its members,
1. From 1 July to 31 December 1984, the Common Customs Tariff duty for polyester film, uncoated having a thickness of not more than 12 micrometres for use in the manufacture of magnetic video tapes, falling within subheading ex 39.01 C III a), shall be totally suspended within the limits of a Community tariff quota of 200 tonnes.
2. Within the limits of this tariff quota, the Hellenic Republic shall apply customs duties calculated in accordance with the relevant provisions in the 1979 Act of Accession.
3. Control of the use of the products for the particular purpose laid down shall be carried out by applying the relevant Community provisions.
1. A first instalment of 170 tonnes of this Community tariff quota shall be allocated among certain Member States; the shares, which shall be valid until 31 December 1984, shall be as follows:
1.2 // // (tonnes) // Germany // 150 // United Kingdom // 20
2. The second instalment of 30 tonnes shall constitute the reserve.
3. If an importer gives notification of an imminent importation of the product in question in a Member State and requests the benefit of the quota, the Member State concerned shall inform the Commission and draw an amount corresponding to these requirements to the extent that the available balance of the reserve permits this.
1. If a Member State has used 90 % or more of its initial share as fixed in Article 2 (1), it shall forthwith, by notifying the Commission, draw a second share, to the extent that the reserve so permits, equal to 5 % of its initial share rounded up as necessary to the next whole number.
2. If a Member State, after exhausting its initial share, has used 90 % or more of the second share drawn by it, that Member State shall forthwith, in the manner and to the extent provided in paragraph 1, draw a third share equal to 2,5 % of its initial share rounded up as necessary to the next whole number.
3. If a Member State, after exhausting its second share, has used 90 % or more of the third share drawn by it, that Member State shall, in the manner and to the extent provided in paragraph 1, draw a fourth share equal to the third.
This process shall apply until the reserve is used up.
4. By way of derogation from paragraphs 1, 2 and 3, a Member State may draw shares lower than those specified in those paragraphs if there are grounds for believing that those specified may not be used in full. Any Member State applying this paragraph shall inform the Commission of its grounds for so doing.
Additional shares drawn pursuant to Article 3 shall be valid until 31 December 1984.
1. Member States shall, not later than 15 November 1984, return to the reserve the unused portion of their initial share which, on 1 November 1984, is in excess of 20 % of the initial volume. They may return a greater portion if there are grounds for believing that it may not be used in full.
Member States shall, not later than 15 November 1984, notify the Commission of the total quantities of the product in question imported up to and including 1 November 1984 and charged against the Community tariff quotas and of any portion of their initial shares returned to the reserve.
The Commission shall keep an account of the shares opened by the Member States pursuant to Articles 2 and 3 and shall, as soon as the notification reaches it, inform each Member State of the extent to which the reserve has been used up.
It shall, not later than 20 November 1984, inform the Member States of the amount still in reserve, following any return of shares pursuant to Article 5.
It shall ensure that the drawing which exhausts the reserve does not exceed the balance available and to this end shall notify the amount of that balance to the Member State making the last drawing.
1. Member States shall take all appropriate measures to ensure that additional shares drawn pursuant to Article 3 are opened in such a way that imports may be charged without interruption against their aggregate shares of the Community tariff quota.
2. Member States shall ensure that importers of the product in question have free access to the shares allotted to them.
3. Member States shall charge imports of the product in question against their shares as the product is entered with the customs authorities for free circulation. 4. The extent to which Member States have used up their shares shall be determined on the basis of imports charged against them under the conditions set out in paragraph 3.
At the Commission's request, the Member States shall inform it of imports actually charged against their shares.
The Member States and the Commission shall cooperate closely to ensure that this Regulation is complied with.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3013/89 of 25 September 1989 on the common organization of the market in sheepmeat and goatmeat (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 233/94 (2), and in particular Article 5 (9) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3493/90 of 27 November 1990 laying down general rules for the granting of premiums to sheepmeat and goatmeat producers (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 233/94, and in particular the second paragraph of Article 1 thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2700/93 (4), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 80/94 (5), pursuant to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3508/92 (6), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 165/94 (7), and Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3887/92 (8) regarding the integrated administration and control system for certain Community aid schemes, provides for the obligation whereby, as from the 1994 marketing year, producers must keep the number of ewes and/or goats in respect of which the premium is applied for on his holding during the retention period; whereas the application of this rule in the sheepmeat and goatmeat sector would lead to the discontinuation of a traditional practice in some Member States; whereas, therefore, provision should be made to allow those practices to be continued under certain conditions and, in that connection, to derogate from the definition of a holding as used in the context of the integrated administration and control system; whereas, in the case of animals placed in agistment, it is necessary to ensure that animals moved are identified in order to make possible their effective control and to notify in advance the periods and places where the movement is to be carried out;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sheep and Goats,
The first subparagraph of Article 1 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 2700/93 is replaced by the following subparagraphs:
'3. The retention period during which the producer undertakes to keep on his holding, within the meaning of Article 1 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 3493/90, the number of ewes and/or she goats in respect of which the premium is requested shall be 100, days starting on the last day of the period for the submission of applications referred to in paragraph 2.
Before all or some of that number of ewes and/or she goats in respect of which the premium is requested are placed in agistment during the retention period, the animals concerned must be identified. Furthermore, as from the 1995 marketing year, the place (or places) of retention must be indicated in the premium application as well as, where applicable, the period (or periods) concerned. In the event of a change of place or date relating to that period, the producer shall give prior written notification thereof to the competent authority.`
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply as from the beginning of the 1994 marketing year.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Having regard to the request submitted by the Kingdom of Denmark,
Whereas in Denmark the production of seed of hybrid varieties of rye satisfying the requirements of Directive 66/402/EEC in relation to minimum germination capacity has been insufficient in 1994 and is therefore not adequate to meet that country's needs;
Whereas it is not possible to cover this demand satisfactorily with seed from other Member States, or from third countries, satisfying all the requirements laid down in the said Directive;
Whereas the Kingdom of Denmark should therefore be authorized to permit for a period expiring on 30 November 1994 the marketing of seed of the abovementioned species subject to less stringent requirements;
Whereas, moreover, other Member States which are able to supply the Denmark with such seed not satisfying the requirements of the Directive should be authorized to permit the marketing of such seed;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Seeds and Propagating Material for Agriculture, Horticulture and Forestry,
The Kingdom of Denmark is authorized to permit, for a period expiring on 30 November 1994 the marketing in its territory of a maximum of 900 tonnes of seed of hybrid varieties of rye, (Secale cereale L.) which does not satisfy the requirements laid down in Annex II to Directive 66/402/EEC with regard to the minimum germination capacity, provided that the following requirements are satisfied:
(a) the germination capacity is at least 75 % of pure seed;
(b) the official label bears the endorsement 'minimum germination capacity 75 %'.
The other Member States are hereby authorized to permit, subject to the conditions laid down in Article 1 and for the purposes intended by the applicant Member State, the marketing in their territory of a maximum of 900 tonnes of rye seed. The official label shall bear the endorsement referred to in Article 1 (b).
Member States shall notifiy the Commission before 31 January 1995 of the quantities of seed marketed in their territory pursuant to this Decision. The Commission shall inform the other Member States thereof.
