(notified under document number C(2009) 1551)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2009/180/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Directive 98/37/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 June 1998 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to machinery (1), and in particular Article 6(1) thereof,
Having regard to the opinion of the standing committee set up by Article 5 of Directive 98/34/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 June 1998 laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the field of technical standards and regulations and of rules on Information Society Services (2),
Whereas:
(1) Where a national standard transposing a harmonised standard, the reference of which has been published in the Official Journal of the European Union, covers one or more essential health and safety requirements set out in Annex I to Directive 98/37/EC, a machine built in accordance with that standard is presumed to meet the essential requirements concerned.
(2) Pursuant to Article 6(1) of Directive 98/37/EC, France lodged a formal objection in respect of standard EN 12312-9:2005, ‘Aircraft ground support equipment — Specific requirements — Part 9: Container/Pallet loaders’ adopted by the European Committee for Standardisation (CEN) on 21 March 2005, the reference of which has been published in the Official Journal of the European Union
(3).
(3) One of the main risks associated with airport container and pallet loaders is the risk of falling from the raised operating position and from other positions to which the operators have access when operating the cargo doors and handling the loads. The means of protection against this risk must be effective while accommodating the shape of the aircraft and avoiding damage to it.
(4) Having examined standard EN 12312-9:2005, the Commission has established that it fails to meet the essential health and safety requirement 1.5.15 of Annex I to Directive 98/37/EC on the risk of slipping, tripping or falling, in conjunction with the essential health requirement 1.1.2(b) of that Annex on the principles of safety integration. In particular, clause 5.6 of the standard ‘Crushing, shearing and falling’, does not give specifications for the choice, design, location and construction of the means to be used to protect against falling from container and pallet loaders but only refers to the general specifications of EN 1915-1:2001, ‘Aircraft ground support equipment — General requirements — Part 1: Basic safety requirements’ which describe the various types of protection that can be used.
(5) In the interest of safety and legal certainty, the publication in the Official Journal of the European Union of the reference of standard EN 12312-9:2005 should therefore be accompanied by an appropriate warning.
(6) Member States should add an identical warning in their publication of the reference of national standards transposing standard EN 12312-9:2005,
The publication in the Official Journal of the European Union of the reference of standard EN 12312-9:2005 ‘Aircraft ground support equipment — Specific requirements — Part 9: Container/Pallet loaders’ shall be as set out in the Annex.
Where, pursuant to Article 5(2) of Directive 98/37/EC, Member States publish the reference of a national standard transposing harmonised standard EN 12312-9:2005, they shall add to that publication a warning identical to that set out in the Annex to this Decision.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2799/98 of 15 December 1998 establishing agrimonetary arrangements for the euro (1), and in particular Article 9 thereof,
Having regard to 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 and amending Regulations (EEC) No 2019/93, (EC) No 1452/2001, (EC) No 1453/2001, (EC) No 1454/2001, (EC) No 1868/94, (EC) No 1251/1999, (EC) No 1254/1999, (EC) No 1673/2000, (EEC) No 2358/71 and (EC) No 2529/2001 (2), and in particular Article 145(c) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 introduces a system of direct aid which is paid out on the basis of a single payment application and is always expressed in euro.
(2) Since no operative events have been laid down for the exchange rate for some of the aid measures provided for in Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003, provision must be made for a uniform operative event directly linked to applications submitted by the aid beneficiaries. For the sake of consistency and transparency vis-à-vis the beneficiaries, the operative event should be a date that is as close as possible to the beginning of the payment period introduced under the abovementioned Regulation, and as a way of simplifying checks on the application of the exchange rates and making them more effective, it should precede the beginning of the budget year during which the payments are to be made.
(3) As a consequence, the operative event for the exchange rate for all aid measures under Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 should be set uniformly by amending Commission Regulation (EC) No 2808/98 of 22 December 1998 laying down detailed rules for the application of the agrimonetary system for the euro in agriculture (3), and all existing provisions on operative events in the Regulations implementing Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 should accordingly be repealed.
(4) In order to inform operators of the amendments to the Regulations in sufficient time before payments start, this Regulation should apply from 1 August 2005.
(5) Lastly, as some operative events for 2005 have already been set as a date prior to 1 August 2005, as a transitional measure those operative events should remain applicable for 2005.
(6) Regulation (EC) No 2808/98 and Commission Regulation (EC) No 1973/2004 of 29 October 2004 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 as regards the support schemes provided for in Titles IV and IVa of that Regulation and the use of land set aside for the production of raw materials (4) should therefore be amended.
(7) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the relevant Management Committees,
Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 2808/98 is hereby amended as follows:
1. paragraph 1 is replaced by the following:
2. paragraph 3 is replaced by the following:
Article 21(3) and Articles 86 and 128 of Regulation (EC) No 1973/2004 concerning the determination of the operative event for the exchange rate and/or the rules for calculating the exchange rate for aid for starch potatoes, the premiums for sheep and goats and payments involving beef are hereby repealed.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 1 August 2005. However, in the case of the support schemes listed in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 for which the operative event for the exchange rates for 2005 has been set as a date prior to 1 August 2005, the operative event thus determined shall remain applicable for 2005.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

DIRECTIVE 2011/87/EU OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL
of 16 November 2011
amending Directive 2000/25/EC as regards the application of emission stages for narrow-track tractors
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on Functioning of European Union, and in particular Article 114 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
After transmission of the draft legislative act to the national parliaments,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (1),
Acting in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure (2),
Whereas:
(1) Directive 2000/25/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2000 on action to be taken against the emission of gaseous and particulate pollutants by engines intended to power agricultural or forestry tractors (3) regulates exhaust emissions from engines installed in agricultural and forestry tractors with a view to further safeguarding human health and the environment. Directive 2000/25/EC provided that the emission limits applicable in 2010 for type-approval of the majority of compression ignition engines, referred to as Stage III A, were to be replaced by the more stringent Stage III B limits, entering into force progressively as from 1 January 2010 as regards the type-approval, and from 1 January 2011 with regard to the placing on the market, for those engines. Stage IV, providing for emission limits more stringent than Stage III B, will enter into force progressively as from 1 January 2013 as regards the type-approval for those engines and from 1 January 2014 with regard to the placing on the market.
(2) Article 2(b) of Directive 2004/26/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 April 2004 amending Directive 97/68/EC on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to measures against the emission of gaseous and particulate pollutants from internal combustion engines to be installed in non-road mobile machinery (4), provides that the Commission is to consider the available technology, including the cost/benefits, with a view to confirming Stage III B and IV limit values and evaluating the possible need for additional flexibilities, exemptions or later introduction dates for certain types of equipment or engines and taking into account engines installed in non-road mobile machinery used in seasonal applications. Moreover, Article 4(8) of Directive 2000/25/EC provides for a review clause in order to take into account the specificities of tractors of categories T2, T4.1 and C2.
(3) Directive 97/68/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (5) was the subject of several technical studies. As a result of those technical studies carried out in 2007, 2009 and 2010 and confirmed by the impact assessment carried out by the Commission, it was established that it is not technically feasible for tractors of categories T2, T4.1 and C2 to meet the requirements of Stages III B and IV by the dates set out in that Directive.
(4) In order to prevent Union legislation from prescribing technical requirements which cannot be met yet and in order to prevent a situation in which tractors of categories T2, T4.1 and C2 can no longer be type-approved and placed on the market or put into service, it is necessary to provide for a transitional period of 3 years, during which tractors of categories T2, T4.1 and C2 may still be type-approved and placed on the market or put into service.
(5) The Commission should report annually to the European Parliament and the Council on progress in the development of technical solutions for Stage IV-compliant technology.
(6) Directive 2000/25/EC should therefore be amended accordingly,
Amendments to Directive 2000/25/EC
In Article 4 of Directive 2000/25/EC, the following paragraph is added:
‘9. By way of derogation, the dates set out in points (d) and (e) of paragraph 2 and in paragraph 3 shall, for tractors of categories T2, T4.1 and C2, as defined respectively in the second indent of point A.1 of Chapter A, in point 1.1 of Part I of Appendix 1 of Chapter B, and in point A.2 of Chapter A of Annex II to Directive 2003/37/EC, and equipped with engines of categories L to R, be postponed for 3 years. Until such dates, the requirements of Stage III A in this Directive shall continue to apply.’.
Availability of compatible technology
The Commission shall, by 31 December 2014, consider what technology is available that is capable of meeting Stage IV requirements and that is compatible with the needs of categories T2, T4.1 and C2, and submit, where appropriate, proposals to the European Parliament and the Council.
Transposition
1. Member States shall adopt and publish, by 9 December 2012 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 measures.
When Member States adopt those measures, 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 forthwith communicate to the Commission the text of the main provisions of national law which they adopt in the field covered by this Directive.

(Text with EEA relevance)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 76/895/EEC of 23 November 1976 relating to the fixing of maximum levels for pesticide residues in and on fruit and vegetables(1), as last amended by Commission Directive 2002/71/EC(2), and in particular Article 5 thereof,
Having regard to Council Directive 86/362/EEC of 24 July 1986 on the fixing of maximum levels for pesticide residues in and on cereals(3), as last amended by Commission Directive 2002/76/EC(4), and in particular Article 10 thereof,
Having regard to Council Directive 86/363/EEC of 24 July 1986 on the fixing of maximum levels for pesticide residues in and on foodstuffs of animal origin(5), as last amended by Directive 2002/71/EC, and in particular Article 10 thereof,
Having regard to Council Directive 90/642/EEC of 27 November 1990 on the fixing of maximum levels for pesticide residues in and on products of plant origin, including fruit and vegetables(6), as last amended by Directive 2002/76/EC, and in particular Article 7 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) The Annexes to Directives 76/895/EEC, 86/362/EEC, 86/363/EEC and 90/642/EEC, consist of lists of pesticide residues and their maximum levels.
(2) On re-examination of the available data it has been determined that sufficient information exists to permit maximum levels be fixed for certain pesticide residues, namely abamectin, azocyclotin, bioresmethrin, bifenthrin, bitertanol, bromopropylate, clofentezine, cyromazine, cyhexatin, fenpropimorph, flucytrinate, hexaconazol, metacrifos, myclobutanil, penconazole, prochloraz, profenofos, resmethrin, tridemorph, triadimefon and triadimenol.
(3) Pesticide residues may arise in food of animal origin as a result of agricultural practices. It is necessary to take into account relevant data obtained both from authorised pesticide use and from supervised trials and animal feeding studies.
(4) The information available has been reviewed. For many pesticide/agricultural product combinations the data is sufficient to allow the calculation of a maximum residue level at which residues of the pesticide concerned may be considered safe for human health. Where this level exceeds the lower limit of analytical determination it is appropriate to fix the maximum residue level at the level calculated. For some combinations the information available is inadequate and it is appropriate to fix maximum residue levels at the lower limit of analytical determination. For other positions the information is adequate but demonstrates that the setting of a maximum residue level above the lower limit of analytical determination may give rise to an unacceptable, acute or chronic exposure of the consumer to the residues. In such cases, it is appropriate to fix maximum residue levels at the lower limit of analytical determination.
(5) The lifetime exposure and the acute exposure of consumers to these pesticides via food products that may contain residues of these pesticides has been assessed and evaluated in accordance with the Community procedures and practices taking account of guidelines published by the World Health Organisation(7). For abamectin, maximum residue limits have been established in accordance with Council Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90(8), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1752/2002(9) resulting from the use of veterinary medicinal products containing the same substance for the treatment of food-producing animal species (Commission Regulation (EC) No 3425/93(10). These uses and the evaluation of the acceptable daily intake provided by the Committee for Veterinary Medicinal Products on which these maximum residue limits were based were taken into account. It has been concluded that the maximum residue levels proposed in this Directive do not lead to the acceptable daily intakes being exceeded or to acute toxic effects.
(6) To ensure that the consumer is adequately protected from exposure to residues in or on products for which no authorisations have been granted, it is prudent to set maximum residue levels at the lower limit of analytical determination for all such products covered by Directives 86/362/EEC, 86/363/EEC and 90/642/EEC.
(7) Annexes to Directives 86/362/EEC, 86/363/EEC and 90/642/EEC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(8) The Community's trading partners have been consulted about the levels proposed in this Directive through the World Trade Organisation, and their comments on these levels have been considered.
(9) The opinions of the Scientific Committee for Plants, and in particular advice and recommendations concerning the protection of consumers of food crops treated with plant protection products, have been taken into account(11).
(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,
In Annex II to Directive 76/895/EEC, the entry relating to "bromopropylate" is deleted.
In part A of Annex II to Directive 86/362/EEC the maximum pesticide residue levels for abamectin, azocyclotin and cyhexatin, bifenthrin, bitertanol, bromopropylate, clofentezine, cyromazine, fenpropimorph, flucytrinate, hexaconazole, metacrifos, myclobutanil, penconazole, prochloraz, profenofos, resmethrin and bioresmethrin, tridemorph, triadimefon and triadimenol listed in Annex I to the present Directive are added.
Annex II to Directive 86/363/EEC is amended as follows:
(a) in part A maximum pesticide residue levels for abamectin, bifenthrin, bitertanol, bromopropylate, cyromazine, flucytrinate, metacrifos, penconazole, prochloraz, profenofos, resmethrin and bioresmethrin, tridemorph, triadimefon and triadimenol, listed in Annex II to the present Directive are added;
(b) in part B the maximum pesticide residue levels for azocyclotin and cyhexatin, fenpropimorph, clofentezine and myclobutanil, listed in Annex III to the present Directive are added.
Annex II to Directive 90/642/EEC is amended as follows:
(a) the maximum pesticide residue levels for abamectin, azocyclotin and cyhexatin, bifenthrin, bitertanol, bromopropylate, clofentezine, cyromazine, fenpropimorph, flucytrinate, hexaconazol, metacrifos, myclobutanil, penconazole, prochloraz, profenofos, resmethrin and bioresmethrin, tridemorph, triadimefon and triadimenol, listed in Annex IV to the present Directive are added;
(b) the maximum pesticide residue level for ethion in tea is replaced by 3 mg/kg.

concerning the stopping of fishing for whiting by vessels flying the flag of Belgium
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2241/87 of 23 July 1987 establishing certain control measures for fishing activities (1), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3483/88 (2), and in particular Article 11 (3) thereof,
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 4047/89 of 19 December 1989 fixing, for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, the total allowable catches for 1990 and certain conditions under which they may be fished (3), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 738/90 (4), provides for whiting quotas for 1990;
Whereas, in order to ensure compliance with the provisions relating to the quantitative limitations on catches of stocks subject to quotas, it is necessary for the Commission to fix the date by which catches made by vessels flying the flag of a Member State are deemed to have exhausted the quota allocated;

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 89/662/EEC of 11 December 1989 concerning veterinary checks in intra-Community trade with a view to the completion of the internal market (1), and in particular Article 9(4) thereof,
Having regard to Council Directive 90/425/EEC of 26 June 1990 concerning veterinary and zootechnical checks applicable in intra-Community trade in certain live animals and products with a view to the completion of the internal market (2), and in particular Article 10(4) thereof,
Having regard to Council Directive 2005/94/EC of 20 December 2005 on Community measures for the control of avian influenza and repealing Directive 92/40/EEC (3), and in particular Article 63(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Directive 2005/94/EC sets out certain preventive measures relating to the surveillance and the early detection of avian influenza and the minimum control measures to be applied in the event of an outbreak of that disease in poultry or other captive birds. It provides that detailed rules, required by the epidemiological situation to supplement the minimum control measures provided for in that Directive, are to be laid down.
(2) Commission Decision 2006/415/EC of 14 June 2006 concerning certain protection measures in relation to highly pathogenic avian influenza of the subtype H5N1 in poultry in the Community (4) lays down certain protection measures to be applied in order to prevent the spread of that disease, including the establishment of areas A and B following a suspected or confirmed outbreak of the disease. Those areas are listed in the Annex to Decision 2006/415/EC. That Annex, as amended by Commission Decision 2008/812/EC (5), includes parts of Germany and Poland. Decision 2006/415/EC expires on 30 June 2009.
(3) Since there is a continuing risk of outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza of the subtype H5N1 within the Community, the measures laid down in Decision 2006/415/EC should be maintained in order to be used where that virus is detected in poultry, thereby supplementing the measures provided for in Directive 2005/94/EC.
(4) Given the current epidemiological situation in relation to avian influenza in the Community, it is appropriate to extend the period of application of Decision 2006/415/EC until 31 December 2010.
(5) Germany and Poland have notified the Commission that, due to the favourable disease situation on their territory, they are no longer applying protection measures in relation to outbreaks of the highly pathogenic avian influenza of the subtype H5N1. The measures established in accordance with Decision 2006/415/EC for areas A and B in those Member States should therefore no longer apply and those areas should be deleted from the Annex to that Decision.
(6) Decision 2006/415/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(7) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
Decision 2006/415/EC is amended as follows:
1. In Article 12, the date ‘30 June 2009’ is replaced by ‘31 December 2010’.
2. In Parts A and B of the Annex, the entries for Germany and Poland are deleted.
This Decision shall apply from 1 July 2009.

COMMISSION DECISION of 29 April 1998 rejecting the application submitted by Eurocycles (France) for an exemption pursuant to Commission Regulation (EC) No 88/97 from the anti-dumping duty extended to certain bicycle parts originating in the People's Republic of China (98/323/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 384/96 of 22 December 1995 on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Community (1), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 2331/96 (2),
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 71/97 of 10 January 1997 extending the definitive anti-dumping duty imposed by Regulation (EEC) No 2474/93 on bicycles originating in the People's Republic of China to imports of certain bicycle parts from the People's Republic of China, and levying the extended duty on such imports registered pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 703/96 (3),
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 88/97 of 20 January 1997 on the authorisation of the exemption of imports of certain bicycle parts originating in the People's Republic of China from the extension by Council Regulation (EC) No 71/97 of the anti-dumping duty imposed by Council Regulation (EEC) No 2474/93 (4), and in particular Article 7(3) thereof,
After consulting the Advisory Committee,
Whereas:
A. PROCEDURE
(1) By Regulation (EC) No 71/97, the definitive duty imposed on imports of bicycles originating in the People's Republic of China by Regulation (EC) No 2474/93 was extended to imports of certain bicycle parts from that country (hereinafter referred to as the 'extended anti-dumping duty`).
(2) On 22 January 1997, Eurocycles asked to be exempted from the extended anti-dumping duty pursuant to Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 88/97, and was suspended from the payment of the duty as from that date.
(3) In order to ascertain whether Eurocycles' operations fell within the scope of Article 13(2) of Regulation (EC) No 384/96 (hereinafter referred to as 'the Basic Regulation`), thus circumventing the measures in force, the Commission requested the necessary information from the company and verified it at its premises.
(4) Since Eurocycles' request immediately followed the introduction of the extended anti-dumping duty Regulation, it was agreed that Eurocycles should reply to the same questionnaire which had originally been sent to interested parties in the circumvention investigation. The investigation period therefore ran from 1 April 1995 to 31 March 1996.
B. RESULTS OF THE INVESTIGATION
1. Level of cooperation
(5) The on-the-spot verification revealed that part of the information submitted by the company in its questionnaire was inaccurate and incomplete. Even after the on-the-spot verification, the Commission still lacked precise information as to the technical specifications of the bicycle models assembled by the company, the quantities sold in the Community and the selling prices for each model. Furthermore, it also appeared that the company had withheld information in its reply to the questionnaire which it would have been appropriate to mention. As a consequence, the Commission had to base part of its conclusions on the facts available, in accordance with Article 18 of the Basic Regulation.
The company was informed accordingly.
2. Conditions of Article 13(2) of the Basic Regulation
(a) Start or substantial increase of operations
(6) Eurocycles started its bicycle assembly operations in 1995, after the original investigation on imports of bicycles originating in the People's Republic of China.
(b) 60 % of the total value of the parts constituting the assembled product
(7) On the basis of the facts available, the Commission established that the proportion of Chinese parts used in the company's assembly operations ranged from 65 % to 94 % of the total value of the parts used in the assembly of bicycles.
(c) 25 % rule on the added value to the parts brought in
(8) It was also established, using the facts available, that the value added in the European Community on a per-model basis to the parts brought in averaged 19 % of the manufacturing cost of a complete bicycle, and was therefore below the 25 % threshold set by of Article 13(2)(b) of the Basic Regulation.
(d) Undermining of the remedial effects of the duty and evidence of dumping
(9) The poor level of accuracy of the reply to the questionnaire and the evidence collected on the spot did not allow the Commission to make a detailed calculation of dumping and undermining. In the absence of the elements referred to in recital 5, which are deemed essential for the determination of undermining and dumping, the Commission concluded that the findings of the circumvention investigation which led to the extension of the anti-dumping duty to bicycle parts under Regulation (EC) No 711/97 should be applied to Eurocycles as regards undermining and dumping.
C. CONCLUSION
(10) For the reasons explained above, it was established that the assembly operations of Eurocycles fell within the scope of Article 13(2) of the Basic Regulation during the investigation period. Accordingly, pursuant to Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 88/97, the suspension of payment of the extended anti-dumping duty is lifted for Eurocycles.
(11) The company was informed of the essential facts and considerations on the basis of which the Commission intended to propose the rejection of its request for exemption, and was given an opportunity to comment. The comments were considered and, where appropriate, the findings have been changed accordingly,
The application of Eurocycles pursuant to Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 88/97 to be exempted from the extended anti-dumping duty is hereby rejected.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States and to
Eurocycles,

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 17(8) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 562/2000 of 15 March 2000 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 as regards the buying-in of beef(2), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 590/2001(3), lays down buying standards. Pursuant to the above Regulation, an invitation to tender was opened under Article 1(1) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1627/89 of 9 June 1989 on the buying-in of beef by invitation to tender(4), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 840/2001(5).
(2) Article 13(1) of Regulation (EC) No 562/2000 lays down that a maximum buying-in price is to be fixed for quality R3, where appropriate, under each partial invitation to tender in the light of tenders received. In accordance with Article 36 of that Regulation, only tenders quoting prices not exceeding the maximum buying-in price and not exceeding the average national or regional market price, plus the amount referred to in Article 6(2) of Regulation (EC) No 590/2001 are to be accepted.
(3) Once tenders submitted in respect of the 266th partial invitation to tender have been considered pursuant to Article 47(8) of Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999, and taking account of the requirements for reasonable support of the market and the seasonal trend in slaughterings and prices, the maximum buying-in price and the quantities which may be bought in should be fixed for category A and no award made for category C.

In accordance with Article 4(2)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 562/2000, the products concerned from those regions should be excluded from this tendering procedure.
(6) In the light of developments, this Regulation should enter into force immediately.
(7) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Beef and Veal,
Under the 266th partial invitation to tender opened pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 1627/89:
(a) for category A:

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION

Having regard to the Treaty on the European Union, and in particular Article 13(3) and Article 28(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) On 23 February 2004, the Council adopted Decision 2004/197/CFSP (1) which provides that its first review shall take place before the end of 2004.
(2) When adopting Joint Action 2004/570/CFSP of 12 July 2004 on the EU military operation in Bosnia-Herzegovina (2), the Council noted the need to consider in the forthcoming review of ATHENA a number of issues.

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 solder in one interface of large area stacked die elements
(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) SDE (stacked die elements) detector technology is used in X-ray detectors of computed tomography (CT) and X-ray systems. It offers advantages for patients as it reduces the necessary X-ray dose exposure. Large area SDE detectors cannot yet be produced with lead-free solders. The substitution and the elimination of lead are therefore scientifically and technically impracticable for the above-mentioned applications.
(3) The use of lead in large area stacked die elements with more than 500 interconnects per interface used in X-ray detectors of CT and X-ray systems should therefore be exempted from the prohibition until 31 December 2019. In view of the innovation cycles of the medical devices and monitoring and control instruments sectors this is a relatively short transition period which is unlikely to have adverse impacts on innovation.
(4) In accordance with the repair-as-produced principle of Directive 2011/65/EU, which is meant to extend the lifetime of compliant products once placed on the market, spare parts shall benefit from this exemption past its end date without time limitations.
(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 sixth 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.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1587/96 (2), and in particular Article 17(4) thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3719/88 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1044/98 (4), lays down common detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences and advance fixing certificates for agricultural products;
Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 1466/95 (5), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2184/98 (6), lays down special detailed rules of application for export refunds on milk and milk products;
Whereas the problems prevailing on the Russian market since the second half of August 1998 have seriously damaged the financial interests of certain exporters of cheese to Russia; whereas the situation thus created has adversely affected export opportunities under the conditions laid down in Regulation (EC) No 1466/95;
Whereas to limit the adverse effects Commission Regulation (EC) No 2186/98 (7) extends the time limit laid down in the regulations applicable to refunds so that export operations which have not been completed on account of the abovementioned circumstances can be regularised or another outlet within the same zone can be found;
Whereas that measure has not achieved the desired aim and the difficulties on the Russian market persist; whereas it is therefore necessary to adopt provisions allowing for the export licences to be cancelled;
Whereas, in the light of developments, this Regulation should enter into force immediately;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,
This Regulation shall apply to certain products falling within CN code 0406 for which export licences have been issued pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1466/95 containing the indication 'Russia` in box 7 in accordance with Article 1(2) of that Regulation.
On application by the holder submitted before 31 January 1999, the export licences referred to in Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 2186/98 shall be cancelled and the security released.
Member States shall notify to the Commission the quantities of products covered by the measure referred to in Article 2 before 28 February 1999.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

fixing an adjustment rate for direct payments provided for in Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 in respect of calendar year 2014 and repealing Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 879/2014
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 on the financing, management and monitoring of the common agricultural policy and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 352/78, (EC) No 165/94, (EC) No 2799/98, (EC) No 814/2000, (EC) No 1290/2005 and (EC) No 485/2008 (1), and in particular Article 26(4) thereof,
After consulting the Committee on the Agricultural Funds,
Whereas:
(1) On 21 March 2014 the Commission adopted a proposal for a Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on fixing an adjustment rate for direct payments provided for in Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 in respect of calendar year 2014 (2). The European Parliament and the Council had not set that adjustment rate by 30 June 2014. Therefore, in accordance with Article 26(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013, the Commission has set the adjustment rate in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 879/2014 (3).
(2) The forecasts for the direct payments and market related expenditure included in Commission Amending Letter No 1 to the 2015 Draft Budget show the need to adapt the rate of financial discipline which was taken into account in the Draft Budget 2015. That Amending Letter has been established taking into account an amount of financial discipline of EUR 433 million for the reserve for crises in the agricultural sector referred to in Article 25 of Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013. In order to take account of this new information, the Commission should adapt the adjustment rate set in Implementing Regulation (EU) No 879/2014.
(3) As a general rule, farmers submitting an aid application for direct payments for one calendar year (N) are paid within a fixed payment period falling under the financial year (N+1). However, Member States have the possibility to make late payments, within certain limits, to farmers beyond this payment period without any time limits. Such late payments may fall in a later financial year. When financial discipline is applied for a given calendar year, the adjustment rate should not be applied to payments for which aid applications have been submitted in the calendar years other than that for which the financial discipline applies. Therefore, in order to ensure equal treatment of farmers, it is appropriate to provide that the adjustment rate is only applied to payments for which aid applications have been submitted in the calendar year for which the financial discipline is applied, irrespectively of when the payment to farmers is made.
(4) Article 8(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4) lays down that the adjustment rate applied to direct payments determined in accordance with Article 26 of Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 applies only to direct payments in excess of EUR 2 000 to be granted to farmers in the corresponding calendar year. Furthermore Article 8(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 provides that as a result of the gradual introduction of direct payments, the adjustment rate applies only to Bulgaria and Romania from 1 January 2016 and to Croatia from 1 January 2022. The adjustment rate to be determined by the present Regulation should therefore not apply to payments to farmers in those Member States.
(5) In order to ensure that the adapted adjustment rate is applicable as from the date on which the payments to farmers are to start in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013, this Regulation should apply from 1 December 2014.
(6) The adapted adjustment rate should be taken into account for the calculation of all payments to be granted to a farmer for an aid application submitted in respect of calendar year 2014. For the sake of clarity, Implementing Regulation (EU) No 879/2014 should therefore be repealed,
1. For the purpose of applying the adjustment provided for in Articles 25 and 26 of Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 and in accordance with Article 8(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013, the amounts of the payments within the meaning of Article 2(d) of Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 (5) to be granted to a farmer in excess of EUR 2 000 for an aid application submitted in respect of calendar year 2014 shall be reduced by 1,302214 %.
2. The reduction provided for in paragraph 1 shall not apply in Bulgaria, Croatia and Romania.
Implementing Regulation (EU) No 879/2014 is repealed.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 1 December 2014.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Whereas, in the wake of the accession of Austria, Finland and Sweden, the Community concluded Agreements with certain third countries concerning the conclusion of the negotiations under GATT Article XXIV.6 (1); whereas those Agreements provide inter alia for certain Community commitments in the field of agriculture; whereas, pursuant to those Agreements, the Commission has drawn up a new Schedule CXL (European Communities), applicable to the customs territory of the Community as constituted at 1 January 1995, to replace Schedule LXXX (European Communities) in the Annex to the Marrakesh Protocol to the GATT, 1994; whereas Schedule CXL has been forwarded to the World Trade Organization; whereas the commitments set out in Schedule CXL and, in particular, the commitments applicable from 1 January 1996, must be implemented at the earliest opportunity; whereas, as a consequence, the Council should authorize the Commission to take the requisite measures in accordance with the management committee procedure; whereas, for the sake of simplification, provision should also be made for the same procedure to be used to introduce such amendments to Schedule CXL as the Council may authorize,
1. At the earliest opportunity, the Commission shall adopt the measures required as from 1 January 1996 for the implementation in agriculture of the concessions set out in Schedule CXL (European Communities) forwarded to the World Trade Organization and applying to the customs territory of the Community as constituted at 1 January 1995. Such measures shall be adopted in accordance with the procedure provided for in Article 23 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 of 30 June 1992 on the common organization of the market in cereals (2), the corresponding provisions of the other Regulations on the common organization of the markets and, as regards products covered by CN code 0701 90 51, in Article 33 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72 of 18 May 1972 on the common organization of the market in fruit and vegetables (3).
2. Should the Council authorize any amendment to Schedule CXL, the resulting measures shall subsequently be adopted in accordance with the procedure referred to in paragraph 1.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

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 last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 608/82 (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 7 April 1982, the Federal Republic of 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 'Extranuclear - Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer, consisting of: Quadrupole Mass Filter, model 4-324-9, Electron Impact Ionizer, model 041-2, Ionizer Control, model 020-2, Quadrupole Power Supply, model 011-14 and High-Q-Head, model 012-10', ordered on 20 February 1980 and to be used for research in the field of radiation chemistry and in particular for research of atom-molecule reactions by means of a flow reactor, 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 21 September 1982 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 mass spectrometer;
Whereas its objective technical characteristics such as the sensibility 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, on the basis of information received from Member States, apparatus of equivalent scientific value capable of use for the same purpose is not currently manufactured in the Community; whereas, therefore, duty-free admission of this apparatus is justified,
The apparatus described as 'Extranuclear - Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer, consisting of: Quadrupole Mass Filter, model 4-324-9, Electron Impact Ionizer, model 041-2, Ionizer Control, model 020-2, Quadrupole Power Supply, model 011-14 and High-Q-Head, model 012-10', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 7 April 1982, may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (3),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (4),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (5),
Whereas the markets and prices policy is the main instrument of the common agricultural policy;
Whereas, in many cases, surpluses can no longer be disposed of on normal terms either inside or outside the Community; whereas, in order to reduce the cost to the budget of disposing of surpluses on markets of third countries and to encourage greater consumption within the Community, the restrictive price policy should continue to be applied; whereas, this aim may be achieved by maintaining for 1991/92 the intervention prices for common wheat, barley, rye, maize and sorghum applied during the previous marketing year;
Whereas, as part of a quality policy, production of common wheat of higher breadmaking quality and production of rye of breadmaking quality should be supported; whereas, accordingly, the application of special premiums should be continued for common wheat of breadmaking quality;
Whereas, as from the 1986/87 marketing year, the Council began a process of aligning the intervention price of durum wheat on that of common wheat; whereas, in view of, on the
one hand, the present ratio between the prices of those cereals and, on the other, the imbalance recorded on the durum wheat market, it is advisable to pursue that process; whereas, accordingly, the intervention price of durum wheat should be further reduced;
Whereas application of Article 68 of the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal has meant that prices in Spain differ from the common prices; whereas Article 70 (1) of the Act of Accession lays down the provisions for aligning Spanish prices with common prices; whereas the rules for the alignment referred to above give the Spanish intervention price for durum wheat indicated below;
Whereas the common prices were applied in Spain in the preceding marketing year for all cereals with the exception of durum wheat; whereas the prices for durum wheat should be aligned in accordance with Article 70 (1) of the Act of Accession;
Whereas the provisions on prices applicable in Portugal for cereals were laid down by Council Regulation (EEC) No 3653/90 of 11 December 1990 introducing transitional measures governing the common organization of the market in cereals and rice in Portugal (6); whereas, as regards common wheat, the intervention price must be fixed in accordance with the second indent of Article 2 (2) of that Regulation,
For the 1991/92 marketing year, the prices applicable in the cereals sector shall be as indicated in the Annex.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply from the beginning of the 1991/92 marketing year.

(2) For the 2003/04 marketing year, Commission Regulation (EC) No 1430/2004 (3) sets the maximum amount of the B levy at 37,5 % of the intervention price for white sugar and Commission Regulation (EC) No 1775/2004 (4) fixes the amount of the B levy for sugar to be charged for the said marketing year at 27,050 % of the intervention price for white sugar. This difference requires, in accordance with Article 18(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, that the amount to be paid by sugar manufacturers to beet sellers should be fixed per tonne of beet of standard quality.
(3) The Management Committee for Sugar has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman,
The amount referred to in Article 18(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 to be paid by sugar manufacturers to beet sellers in respect of the B levy shall be fixed for the 2003/04 marketing year at EUR 5,151 per tonne of beet of standard quality.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third 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.

|
COMMISSION DECISION of 9 June 1993 concerning applications for refund of anti-dumping duties collected on imports of certain compact disc players originating in Japan (Amroh BV, PIA Hifi, MPI Electronic) (Only the German, English and Dutch texts are authentic)
(93/363/EEC)THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2423/88 of 11 July 1988 on protection against dumped or subsidized imports from countries not members of the European Economic Community (1), and in particular Articles 10 and 16 thereof,
After consultations within the Advisory Committee as provided for in the above Regulation,
Whereas:
I. PROCEDURE (1) Between November 1990 and March 1993, Amroh BV, PIA Hifi and MPI Electronic, all independent importers respectively based in Weesp (Netherlands), Weiterstadt (Germany), and Manchester (United Kingdom) made 38 applications for the refund of definitive anti-dumping duties imposed by Council Regulation (EEC) No 112/90 (2) on certain compact disc players originating in Japan and paid by them on the importation from April 1990 to March 1993 of compact disc players produced and exported by Accuphase Laboratory. They argued that they had paid export prices significantly in excess of normal value. Their applications are admissible in particular concerning time limits since they were introduced within the three months deadline set by the provisions of Article 16 of Regulation (EEC) No 2423/88. The Commission decided to handle these applications according to the rules on recurring applications laid down in point I (4) of the Commission notice concerning the reimbursement of anti-dumping duties (3). The information required for judging the validity of the applications was provided for the period April 1990 to March 1993 inclusive and sent direct to the Commission by Accuphase Laboratory at the applicants' request.
(2) The Commission sought and verified all information it deemed to be necessary for the purpose of the examination of the refunds applications and carried out an investigation in the premises of Accuphase Laboratory in Japan.
(3) The refund applicants have been informed of the results of the examination of their requests. A reasonable period of time was granted to make representations on the above information and due account has been taken of these representations where considered appropriate.
II. PRODUCT UNDER CONSIDERATION (4) The definition of the product under consideration is identical to that contained in Regulation (EEC) No 112/90, as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 819/92 (4). The product considered is certain compact disc players falling within CN codes ex 8519 31 00, ex 8519 39 00, ex 8519 99 10, ex 8520 31 90, ex 8520 39 10, ex 8520 39 90 and ex 8527 31 91 (Taric codes 8519 31 00*10, 8519 39 00*10, 8519 99 10*10, 8520 31 90*30, 8520 39 10*10, 8529 39 90*10 and 8527 31 91*10) (5) (hereafter referred to as CDPs).
III. REFUND FINDINGS A. Merits of the claim (5) Article 16 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2423/88 makes it the responsibility of the importer who has paid an anti-dumping duty and is applying for refund of that duty to show that the duties collected exceed the dumping margin calculated for the relevant reference period. This actual dumping margin should be calculated using the same method as that applied during the initial investigation.
(6) The Commission considered that the information supplied by the applicant and the exporter regarding normal value and the export prices of the different CDP models was sufficient to calculate correctly the average actual dumping margin.
1. Normal value
(7) Almost all the CDP models produced by Accuphase Laboratory were sold on the domestic market in sufficient quantities to be representative and at prices which permitted recovery of all costs reasonably allocated in the normal course of trade. Accordingly, normal value was determined on the basis of the weighted average domestic prices of these models of CDPs net of any rebates or discounts.
2. Export price
(8) Since Accuphase Laboratory sold CDPs directly to independent importers in the Community, export prices were determined on the basis of the net prices actually paid or payable for the products sold for export to the Community.
3. Comparison
(9) For the purpose of a fair comparison between normal value and export price and in accordance with Article 2 (9) and (10) of Regulation (EEC) No 2423/88, the Commission took account of differences affecting price comparability where a direct relationship of these differences to the sales under consideration could be satisfactorily demonstrated. Adjustments were in particular made in respect of freight, insurance, handling expenses and sales personnel salaries. All comparisons were made at the same level of trade, at the ex factory level.
(10) As far as differences in guarantee costs are concerned, the Commission established that the adjustment claimed by the applicant to take account of the level of these domestic costs was partly based on transactions falling outside the investigation period. Therefore, the Commission calculated the average cost for this item shown in the financial statements of the company for the relevant period and adjusted normal value on this basis.
(11) Accuphase Laboratory also made a claim for sales promotion expenses. However, Article 2 (10) (c) of Regulation (EEC) No 2423/88 does not provide for adjustments for differences in such expenses since such differences do not affect price comparability and the claim was, accordingly, rejected.
4. Dumping margin
(12) For the reference period concerned, the Commission compared the average normal value of each CDP model, ex factory, with the ex factory export price charged by Accuphase Laboratory for each of the consignments released for free circulation in the Community during the same period. The Commission found the average dumping margin during the period under consideration to be lower than the dumping margin used to calculate the level of the duties collected. While Accuphase Laboratory was found to have dumped exports, the level of dumping was lower than that established in Regulation (EEC) No 112/90 as being applicable to this producer. The Commission found the weighted average dumping margin, expressed as a percentage of total cif value, for the period under consideration to be 15,1 %. Consequently, the applicants have shown that the duty collected at a rate of 32 % exceeds the actual dumping margin for the periods considered.
B. Amounts to be reimbursed (13) The amounts to be reimbursed to the applicants, representing the difference between the rate of duty collected and the actual dumping margin, are equal to 16,9 % (32 to 15,1 %) of the value used by the relevant authorities to calculate the level of anti-dumping duty.
(14) The applicants were informed of the results of this examination and made no comments. The Commission informed the Member States and gave its opinion on the matter. No Member State raised any objection,
The applications for the refund of anti-dumping duties submitted by Amroh BV, PIA Hifi Vertriebs GMBH, and MPI Electronic are granted to the amount of 16,9 % of the value used by the relevant authorities for calculating the amount of anti-dumping duty.
The amounts set out in Article 1 shall be respectively refunded by the Dutch, German, and British authorities.
This Decision is addressed to the Kingdom of Netherlands, the Federal Republic of Germany, the United Kingdom and the applicants:
- Amroh BV, Hogeweyselaan 227, 1382 JL Weesp, Netherlands,
- PIA Hifi Vertriebs Gmbh, Rosenweg 6, 6108 Weiterstadt 2, Germany,
- MPI Electronic Ltd, Wood Lane, Manchester M 31 4BP, United Kingdom.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 258/2010
of 25 March 2010
imposing special conditions on the imports of guar gum originating in or consigned from India due to contamination risks by pentachlorophenol and dioxins, and repealing Decision 2008/352/EC
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 28 January 2002 laying down the general principles and requirements of food law, establishing the European Food Safety Authority and laying down procedures in matters of food safety (1), and in particular Article 53(1)(b)(ii) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 53(1) of Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 provides for the possibility to adopt appropriate emergency measures for food and feed imported from a third country in order to protect public health, animal health or the environment, where the risk cannot be contained satisfactorily by means of measures taken by the Member States individually.
(2) In July 2007, high levels of pentachlorophenol (PCP) and dioxins have been found in the EU in certain batches of guar gum originating in or consigned from India. Such contamination constitutes a threat to public health within the European Union if no measures are taken to avoid the presence of pentachlorophenol and dioxins in guar gum.
(3) In response to this finding of elevated levels of PCP and dioxins, the Food and Veterinary Office of the European Commission (FVO) carried out an urgent inspection visit to India in October 2007. The objective was to gather information on the possible source of the contamination and to assess the control measures put in place by the Indian authorities to avoid the re-occurrence of this contamination. The inspection team concluded that there was insufficient evidence of the cause of the contamination incident, and the investigation carried out by the Indian authorities was inadequate to provide any conclusions. With availability of sodium pentachlorophenolate and its use in the guar gum industry, and with a largely self regulated industry, there were inadequate controls in place to ensure that this contamination does not occur again.
(4) Therefore, Commission Decision 2008/352/EC of 29 April 2008 imposing special conditions governing guar gum originating in or consigned from India due to contamination risks of those products by pentachlorophenol and dioxins (2) provides that each consignment of guar gum and compound feedingstuffs and foodstuffs containing at least 10 % guar gum originating in or consigned from India, has to be accompanied by an original analytical report, endorsed by a representative of the competent authority from the country where the laboratory is located, demonstrating that the product does not contain more than 0,01 mg/kg PCP. The competent authorities in the Member States have to sample and analyse consignments of these products with a frequency of 5 % in order to verify that the level of 0,01 mg/kg PCP is not exceeded. The Community Reference Laboratory for Dioxins and PCBs in Feed and Food has carried out a study on the correlation between PCP and dioxins in contaminated guar gum from India. From this study it can be concluded that guar gum containing a level of PCP below the level of 0,01 mg/kg does not contain unacceptable levels of dioxins.
(5) A follow-up inspection mission of the FVO took place in October 2009 to assess the control measures put in place by the Indian authorities to prevent contamination of guar gum with PCP and dioxins and to follow-up the recommendations of the mission that took place in October 2007.
(6) Several serious deficiencies were observed during that inspection mission. The status of PCP in industrial use in India is not clear and at the time of the mission no evidence of any action being taken to stop its production or sale was presented. Samples are taken by the exporting private company without any official supervision. Non-conformities found by the laboratory at a frequency of about 2,5 % of samples analysed are notified to the exporting company without notifying the competent authority. As there was no knowledge on the part of the competent authority of these non-compliances, no action was taken regarding the non-conforming lots.
(7) The findings indicate that the contamination of guar gum with PCP and/or dioxins cannot be regarded as an isolated incident and that only the effective analysis by the approved private laboratory has prevented contaminated product being further exported to the European Union. Taking into account that there has been no improvement in the control system additional measures should be taken in order to reduce possible risks.
(8) Given that it cannot be excluded that guar gum originating in India is exported to the EU via another third country, it is appropriate to foresee random controls on the presence of PCP in guar gum consigned from countries other than India.
(9) Therefore, Decision 2008/352/EC should be amended accordingly. However, taking into account the nature of the amending provisions, which have a direct application and are binding in their entirety, it is appropriate to replace that Decision with a Regulation.
(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,
Scope
This Regulation shall apply to:
(a) guar gum, falling within CN code 1302 32 90, originating in or consigned from India, and intended for animal or human consumption;
(b) feed and food containing at least 10 % guar gum originating in or consigned from India.
Certification
1. Each consignment of the products referred to in Article 1 presented for import shall be accompanied by:
(a) a health certificate, provided in the Annex, certifying that the product imported does not contain more than 0,01 mg/kg pentachlorophenol (PCP) and
(b) an analytical report, issued by a laboratory accredited according to EN ISO/IEC 17025 for the analysis of PCP in feed and food, indicating the results of sampling and analysis for the presence of PCP, the measurement uncertainty of the analytical result, as well as the limit of detection (LOD) and the limit of quantification (LOQ) of the analytical method.
2. The certificate accompanied by an analytical report shall be signed by an authorised representative of the Ministry of Commerce and Industry of India and the validity of the certificate shall not exceed 4 months from the date of its issue.
3.

The extraction before analysis shall be performed with an acidified solvent. The analysis shall be carried out according to the modified version of the QuEChERS method as set out on the website of the Community Reference Laboratories for Residues of Pesticides (4) or according to an equally reliable method.
Identification
Each consignment of the products referred to in Article 1 shall be identified by means of a code which shall be indicated on the health certificate, on the analytical report containing the results of sampling and analysis, and on any commercial documents accompanying the consignment. Each individual bag or other packaging form of the consignment shall be identified with that code.
Prior notification
Feed and food business operators or their representatives shall give prior notification to the control point referred to in Article 5(4) of the estimated date and time of arrival of all consignments of products referred to in Article 1.
Official controls
1. The competent authorities of the Member States shall carry out documentary, identity and physical checks, including laboratory analysis on the consignments of products referred to in Article 1.
2. Identity and physical checks, including sampling and analysis to control the presence of PCP, shall be carried out on at least 5 % of the consignments.

6. The competent authorities of the Member States shall also perform at random physical checks, including sampling and analysis to control the presence of PCP on guar gum consigned from countries other than India.
Splitting of a consignment
Consignments shall not be split until all official controls have been completed. If a consignment is split, a certified copy of the health certificate provided for in Article 2(1)(a), shall accompany each part of the split consignment until its release into free circulation.
Costs
All costs resulting from the official controls referred to in Article 5(1), including sampling, analysis, storage and any measures taken following non-compliance, shall be borne by the feed and food business operator.
Release into free circulation
The release into free circulation of consignments shall be subject to the presentation by the feed and food business operator or their representative to the custom authorities of the evidence that:
(a) the official controls referred to in Article 5(1) have been carried out and
(b) the results from physical checks, where such checks were required, have been favourable.
Non-compliant products
Any product found to contain more than 0,01 mg/kg PCP, taking into account the expanded measurement uncertainty, following controls performed in accordance with Article 5, shall not enter the feed and food chain. The non-compliant products shall be safely disposed of, in accordance with the provisions of Article 19 of Regulation (EC) No 882/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 on official controls performed to ensure the verification of compliance with feed and food law, animal health and animal welfare rules (5).

of 23 November 2005
on the common organisation of the market in seeds and repealing Regulations (EEC) No 2358/71 and (EEC) No 1674/72
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 36 and the third subparagraph of Article 37(2) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (2),
Whereas:
(1) The operation and development of the common market in agricultural products should be accompanied by the establishment of a common agricultural policy to include, in particular, a common organisation of the agricultural markets which may take various forms depending on the product concerned.
(2) Council Regulation (EEC) No 2358/71 of 26 October 1971 on the common organisation of the market in seeds (3) has been substantially amended several times, particularly 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 (4). In the interests of clarity, Regulation (EEC) No 2358/71 should be repealed and replaced by a new Regulation.
(3) The provisions of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1674/72 of 2 August 1972 laying down general rules for granting and financing aid for seed (5) were incorporated into the implementing rules in Chapter 10 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1973/2004 of 29 October 2004 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 as regards the support schemes provided for in Titles IV and IVa of that Regulation and the use of land set aside for the production of raw materials (6). Regulation (EEC) No 1674/72 should therefore be repealed.
(4) In order to monitor the volume of trade in seeds with third countries, provision should be made for an import licence scheme with the lodging of a security to ensure that the transactions for which such licences are requested are effected.
(5) The system of customs duties makes it possible to dispense with all other protective measures in the case of goods imported from third countries.
(6) The internal market and customs duty mechanism could, in exceptional circumstances, prove inadequate. In such cases, in order not to leave the Community market without defence against disturbances that might ensue, the Community should be able to take all necessary measures without delay. Those measures should comply with the Community’s international obligations.
(7) The proper working of the internal market in seeds would be jeopardised by the granting of national aid. The provisions of the Treaty governing State aid should, therefore, apply to the products covered by this common market organisation. However, since accession, Finland may, subject to authorisation by the Commission, grant aid respectively for certain quantities of seeds and for certain quantities of cereal seed produced solely in Finland, because of its specific climatic conditions.
(8) Since the common market in seeds is constantly evolving, the Member States and the Commission should keep each other supplied with information relevant to developments in this area.
(9) The measures necessary for the implementation of this Regulation should be adopted in accordance with Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission (7),

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 22 January 1982, the Federal Republic of 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 'Nicolet - Data Acquisition System, model MED-80', ordered on 5 September 1980 and to be used for the investigation of the neuro-muscular system during athletic activities, should be considered as 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 8 June 1982 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 data acquisition system; whereas it does not have the requisite objective characteristics making it specifically suited to scientific research; whereas, moreover, apparatus of the same kind are principally used for non-scientific activities; whereas its use in the case in question could not alone confer upon it the character of a scientific apparatus; whereas it therefore cannot be regarded as a scientific apparatus; whereas the duty-free admission of the apparatus in question is therefore not justified,
The apparatus described as 'Nicolet - Data Acquisition System, model MED-80', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 22 January 1982, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

(2) A stabilised form of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol, CAS number 63283-36-3, was authorised without a time limit in accordance with Directive 70/524/EEC as a feed additive for use on chickens for fattening, laying hens and turkeys by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1443/2006 (3). That additive was subsequently entered in the Community Register of feed additives as an existing product, in accordance with Article 10(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.
(3) In accordance with Article 10(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 in conjunction with Article 7 of that Regulation, an application was submitted for the re-evaluation of that additive and, in accordance with Article 7 of that Regulation, for a new use on other poultry and pigs, requesting that additive to be classified in the additive category ‘nutritional additives’. That application was accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003.
(4) The European Food Safety Authority (the Authority) concluded in its opinion of 5 February 2009 that that additive does not have an adverse effect on animal health, consumer health or the environment and that its use is efficacious as a substitute for vitamin D3
(4). The Authority recommends appropriate measures for user safety. It does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post-market monitoring. The Authority 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 additive shows that the conditions for authorisation, as provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. Accordingly, the use of that preparation should be authorised, as specified in the Annex to this Regulation.
(6) As a consequence of the granting of a new authorisation under Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, the provisions on that preparation in Regulation (EC) No 1443/2006 should be deleted.
(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,
The preparation specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category ‘nutritional additives’ and to the functional group ‘vitamins, pro-vitamins and chemically well-defined substances having similar effect’, is authorised as an additive in animal nutrition subject to the conditions laid down in that Annex.
In Regulation (EC) No 1443/2006, Article 3 and Annex III are deleted.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th 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.

COMMUNITIES

Whereas, following the outbreak of classical swine fever which occurred successively in several Member States, the Council adopted, on 31 August 1983, under Decision 83/453/EEC (3), certain protection measures against classical swine fever, to be applied for various periods depending on the risk of the spread of the disease;
Whereas, since that time, the development of the disease has required a number of changes as regards the area to which the measures in respect of intra-Community trade in live pigs apply;
Whereas the persistence and the increase in the number of new outbreaks in certain parts of the territory of the Netherlands have led to the creation of new zones of emergency vaccination and necessitated the extension to these parts of the Netherlands of the measures to be applied to trade in live pigs;
Whereas the improvement of the situation as regards the disease in Belgium and Italy justifies the lifting of the restrictions hitherto applicable to those two States;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Veterinary Committee,
Decision 83/453/EEC is hereby amended as follows:
1. The wording referred to in Article 3 is replaced by the following:
'Animals conforming to Decision 83/453/EEC, as last amended by Decision 84/459/EEC.'
2. The zones relating to the Kingdom of the Netherlands outlined in the Annex are replaced by the following zones:
'The parts of the territory where systematic emergency vaccination has been carried out; for the rest of the territory a zone of five-kilometre radius around all outbreaks of classical swine fever.'
3. In the Annex:
'The Kingdom of Belgium:
A zone of five-kilometre radius around all outbreaks of classical swine fever.' and
'The Italian Republic:
The province of Perugia; for the rest of the territory a zone of five-kilometre radius around all outbreaks of classical swine fever.' are deleted.

Whereas:
(1) Article 31(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 provides that the difference between prices on the world market for the products listed in Article 1 of that Regulation and prices for those products on the Community market may be covered by an export refund.
(2) Given the present situation on the market in milk and milk products, export refunds should therefore be fixed in accordance with the rules and certain criteria provided for in Article 31 of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999.
(3) The second subparagraph of Article 31(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 provides that the world market situation or the specific requirements of certain markets may make it necessary to vary the refund according to destination.
(4) In accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding between the European Community and the Dominican Republic on import protection for milk powder in the Dominican Republic (2) approved by Council Decision 98/486/EC (3), a certain amount of Community milk products exported to the Dominican Republic can benefit from reduced customs duties. For this reason, export refunds granted to products exported under this scheme should be reduced by a certain percentage.
(5) The Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman,
Export refunds as provided for in Article 31 of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 shall be granted on the products and for the amounts set out in the Annex to this Regulation subject to the conditions provided for in Article 3(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1282/2006 (4).

Whereas, in application of Article 6 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1442/93 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1164/95 (4), Regulation (EC) No 2947/94 (5), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 484/95 (6), provisionally fixes the single reduction coefficient to be applied to the reference quantity of each operator to determine the provisional quantity to be allocated to that operator for 1995 within the tariff quota of 2 200 000 tonnes, since it is impossible to achieve a precise assessment of the volume of quantities counted twice and some reference quantities have been based on an incorrect application of the rules;
Whereas, since then, thorough checks on the operators carried out by the Member States in cooperation with the Commission have made it possible to fix the reduction coefficient to be applied to the reference quantity of each operator in Categories A and B established in the Community as of 31 December 1994, determined on the basis of the quantities marketed in the Community during the reference period 1991 to 1993, in order to calculate the quantity to be allocated to each operator within the tariff quota of 2 200 000 for the year 1995;
Whereas provision should be made for the immediate application of the rules laid down in this Regulation so that operators can benefit from them as soon as possible;

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), as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 907/2000(2), and in particular Articles 38(2) and 47(8) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1627/89 of 9 June 1989 on the buying-in of beef by invitation to tender(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2652/2000(4), opens buying-in by invitation to tender in certain Member States or regions of a Member State for certain quality groups.
(2) Recent events involving bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) have provoked a serious loss of consumer confidence in the safety of beef and veal. This has led to a sharp drop in beef consumption and a significant decline in prices, which may well last for some time. As a result, the market for beef and veal is severely disrupted and there is a risk that it might collapse entirely. Urgent support measures are therefore required in accordance with Article 38(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999.
(3) In view of the market situation described above and to improve the effectiveness of the measures to be taken, additional products should be accepted into intervention, carcases of animals which have had to be kept for a longer period than usual due to low demand and which exceed the maximum permitted weight should be accepted and, finally, the increase to be applied to the average market price in order to calculate the maximum buying-in price should be adjusted temporarily to take account, in particular, of increased costs and reduced receipts in the sector.
(4) Commission Regulation (EC) No 716/96 of 19 April 1996 adopting exceptional support measures for the beef market in the United Kingdom(5), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1176/2000(6), adopted special measures in respect of bovine animals reared in the United Kingdom which are more than 30 months old. Those measures comprise the slaughtering and subsequent destruction of such cattle. Castrated animals from the United Kingdom exceeding that age are not therefore eligible for public intervention. Moreover, Commission Decision 2000/764/EC(7) lays down that all bovine animals over 30 months of age subject to normal slaughter for human consumption are to be examined by one of the approved rapid tests listed in Annex IV(A) to Commission Decision 98/272/EC(8), as amended by Decision 2000/374/EC(9), as of 1 July 2001 at the latest. Animals that have not been subject to those tests may not therefore be accepted into public intervention with a view to subsequent disposal on the market.
(5) For intervention to develop its full impact, a second special invitation to tender should be opened for the month of December 2000. To this end, an additional deadline should be laid down for the submission of tenders and a delivery period fixed.
(6) In view of the problems of recording prices where there is very little activity in the market and taking into account Community price trends, it may be necessary to assume that the average Community market price, as referred to in the first indent of Article 47(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999, is less than 84 % of the intervention price and that the latest weekly market price recorded is sufficient to open the second invitation to tender for December 2000.
(7) In order to deal with the further disturbance of the market which may result from the entry onto the market of substantial numbers of male store animals originating in the Community, which have been kept on their holdings of origin due to a lack of demand and for which these holdings no longer have fodder, the necessary support measures should be adopted and buying-in of carcases from such animals permitted. Moreover, to prevent the buying-in of animals almost ready for market, a limit should be placed on the weight of eligible carcases under these arrangements. To avoid granting duplicate aid, a mechanism should be introduced making full payment of the buying-in price conditional on the producer not having applied for the special premium referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 for the animal concerned. Finally, further additions to or derogations from the normal intervention scheme as laid down by Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 are also needed.

COMMISSION DECISION of 30 April 1975 on the reform of agricultural structures in the Kingdom of Denmark pursuant to Directive No 72/159/EEC (Only the Danish text is authentic) (75/316/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community;
Having regard to Council Directive No 72/159/EEC (1) of 17 April 1972 on the modernization of farms, and in particular Article 18 (3) thereof;
Whereas on 8 January, 22 October and 22 November 1974 the Government of the Kingdom of Denmark, pursuant to Article 17 (4) of Directive No 72/159/EEC, forwarded the texts of the following provisions: - Law No 222 of 26 April 1973 to promote the modernization of farms;
- Proclamation of the Ministry for Agriculture of 3 December 1973 on the promotion of the modernization of farms;
- Law No 181 of 28 April 1971 on state loans for agriculture, as amended by Law No 291 of 14 June 1974;
- Law No 292 of 14 June 1974 on aids to encourage the keeping of accounts on farms;
- Proclamation No 514 of the Ministry for Agriculture of 7 October 1974 on aids to encourage the keeping of accounts on farms;
Whereas on 26 February and 25 November 1974 the Government of the Kingdom of Denmark also forwarded the texts of provisions for the determination, pursuant to Article 4 of Directive No 72/159/EEC, of comparable income for 1974 and 1975;
Whereas Article 18 (3) of Directive No 72/159/EEC requires the Commission to determine whether, having regard to the objectives of that Directive and to the need for a proper connection between the various measures, the draft provisions forwarded comply with that Directive and thus satisfy the conditions for financial contribution to common measures within the meaning of Article 15 of Directive No 72/159/EEC;
Whereas the objective of Directive No 72/159/EEC is to encourage the creation and development of farms which are capable through the adoption of rational methods of production of ensuring that persons working on them have an income comparable to that received for non-agricultural work and enjoy acceptable working conditions;
Whereas Directive No 72/159/EEC accordingly requires the Member States to introduce selective incentives for farmers who produce a farm development plan showing that, on completion of the development period, the farm will be capable of attaining as a minimum, for at least one man-work unit, a level of earned income from agricultural production comparable to that received for non-agricultural work;
Whereas farms which do not satisfy these conditions may be assisted to a lesser extent under Article 14 (2) of Directive No 72/159/EEC, provided the interest remaining payable by the beneficiary amounts to not less than 5 % per year;
Whereas the measures forwarded by the Government of the Kingdom of Denmark, both those intended to assist farms submitting development plans and those intended to assist other farms, comply with the objectives of Directive No 72/159/EEC, and in particular Articles 4, 8 and 14 (1) and (2) thereof;
Whereas Council Directive No 74/645/EEC (2) of 9 December 1974 extends until 31 December 1976 the period within which the Kingdom of Denmark is to implement Directive No 72/160/EEC (3) of 17 April 1972 ; whereas a separate Decision concerning the implementation of Directive No 72/159/EEC is therefore justified;
Whereas the EAGGF Committee has been consulted on the financial aspects; (1)OJ No L 96, 23.4.1972, p. 1. (2)OJ No L 352, 28.12.1974, p. 36. (3)OJ No L 96, 23.4.1972, p. 9.
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the Opinion of the Standing Committee on Agricultural Structure,
The laws, regulations and administrative provisions forwarded by the Government of the Kingdom of Denmark on 8 January, 26 February, 22 October and 22 and 25 November 1974 pursuant to Article 17 (4) of Directive No 72/159/EEC satisfy the conditions for financial contribution by the Community to the common measures referred to in Article 15 of Directive No 72/159/EEC.
This Decision is addressed to the Kingdom of Denmark.

|
COMMISSION DECISION of 3 December 1991 laying down the rules for scientific measures concerning the control of African swine fever and the financial contribution from the Community (92/1/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Decision 90/424/EEC of 26 June 1990 on expenditure in the veterinary field (1), as amended by Decision 91/133/EEC (2), and in particular Article 20 thereof,
Whereas African swine fever is a serious infectious disease of pigs which creates barriers to trade in live pigs, pigmeat and certain pigmeat products;
Whereas African swine fever is still present in certain areas of the Community where the soft tick (Ornithodorus erraticus) may play a role in the survival of the African swine fever virus outside its primary host;
Whereas the Community has to adopt measures with a view to the elimination of African swine fever from its territory;
Whereas to that end the Community is undertaking technical and scientific measures necessary to developing Community legislation;
Whereas in this framework provisions should be made for a Community financial contribution to undertake scientific measures on the distribution of soft ticks (Ornithodorus erraticus) in areas where African swine fever has been endemic for several years and on the role the soft tick may play in the epidemiology and the control of African swine fever;
Whereas, to carry out such scientific measures, the Commission should be able to conclude a contract with the Lisbon Veterinary School, Portugal and the Pirbright Laboratory, United Kingdom which, for a fee, would undertake to make the scientific investigations;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Veterinary Committee,
1. With a view to developing legislation on the control of African swine fever in pigs kept under extensive and semi-extensive husbandry systems, the Community shall undertake scientific measures to determine the importance of soft ticks (Ornithodorus erraticus) in the epidemiology of the said disease.
2. The objectives of the measures to be carried out in Portugal are:
- to map distribution of ticks,
- to determine the period of survival of ticks on farms which have been depopulated of pigs due to African swine fever and whether ticks can survive by feeding on other vertebrate hosts,
- to determine whether sentinel pigs are a satisfactory way of monitoring virus persistence in ticks on infected premises.
3. The objectives of measures to be performed in the United Kingdom are:
- to determine virus infection and excretion rates in Portuguese ticks infected with virus isolates collected in different areas of Portugal,
- to determine the efficiency and duration of virus transmission to pigs by infected ticks.
The scientific measures provided for in Article 1 shall be carried out and ensured by the conclusion of a contract between the Commission and the Lisbon Veterinary School, Portugal and the AFRC Institute of animal health, Pirbright Laboratory, United Kingdom.
The Community shall reimburse the costs of the scientific measures referred to in Article 1 up to a maximum of ECU 34 100 in accordance with the modalities of the contract.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 222/93 of 1 February 1993 opening and providing for the administration of a Community tariff quota for fresh or dried hazelnuts, shelled or not, originating in Turkey (1993)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 113 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas the Annex to Council Regulation (EEC) No 4115/86 of 22 December 1986 on imports into the Community of agricultural products originating in Turkey (1), provides that fresh or dried hazelnuts, shelled or not and originating in Turkey shall be admitted on importation into the Community at zero duty within the limits of a Community tariff quota of 25 000 tonnes; whereas the Community tariff quota concerned should therefore be opened for 1993;
Whereas, however, within the limits of this tariff quota, the Portuguese Republic shall apply customs duties calculated in accordance with the relevant provisions of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2573/87 of 11 August 1987 laying down the arrangements for trade between Spain and Portugal on the one hand and Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Tunisia and Turkey on the other (2);
Whereas equal and continuous access to the quota should be ensured for all Community importers and the rate laid down for the quota should be applied consistently to all imports of the products in question into the Member States until the quota is exhausted;
Whereas, it is appropriate to take the necessary measures to ensure efficient Community administration of this tariff quota while offering the Member States the opportunity to draw from the quota volume the necessary quantities corresponding to actual imports; whereas this method of administration required close cooperation between the Member States and the Commission;
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 operation concerning the administration of the quota may be carried out by any one of its members,
1. From 1 January to 31 December 1993 the customs duty applicable to imports into the Community of the following products originating in Turkey shall be suspended at the level indicated and within the limits of a Community tariff quota as shown below:
"" ID="1">09.0201> ID="2">0802 21 00
0802 22 00> ID="3">Fresh or dried hazelnuts, shelled or not> ID="4">25 000> ID="5">0 ">
Within the limits of this tariff quota, the Portuguese Republic shall apply customs duties calculated in accordance with Regulation (EEC) No 2573/87.
2. Imports of the products in question may not be charged against this tariff quota if they already qualify for the same customs duties under other preferential tariff arrangements.
The tariff quota referred to in Article 1 shall be administered by the Commission, which may take any appropriate measure with a view to ensuring the efficient administration thereof.
If an importer presents in a Member State a declaration of entry into free circulation including a request for preferential benefit for a product covered by this Regulation and if this declaration is accepted by the customs authorities, the Member State concerned shall draw, from the tariff quota, by means of notification to the Commission, a quantity corresponding to these needs.
The requests for drawing, with the indication of the date of acceptance of the said declaration, must be communicated to the Commission without delay.
The drawings are granted by the Commission on the basis of the date of acceptance of the declaration of entry into free circulation by the customs authorities of the Member State concerned, to the extent that the available balance so permits.
If a Member State does not use the quantities drawn, it shall return them as soon as possible to the tariff quota.
If the quantities requested are greater than the available balance of the quota, allocation shall be made on a pro rata basis with respect to the requests. Member States shall be informed by the Commission of the drawings made.
Each Member State shall ensure that importers of the product concerned have equal and continuous access to the quota for such time that the residual balance of the quota volume permits.
The Member States and the Commission shall cooperate closely in order to ensure that this Regulation is complied with.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 January 1993.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2021/97 of 15 October 1997 establishing the quantities to be allocated to importers from the 1998 Community quantitative quotas on certain products originating in the People's Republic of China
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 520/94 of 7 March 1994 establishing a Community procedure for administering quantitative quotas (1), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 138/96 (2), and in particular Articles 9 and 13 thereof,
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1393/97 of 18 July 1997 establishing administration procedures for the 1998 quantitative quotas for certain products originating in the People's Republic of China (3), and in particular Article 6 thereof,
Whereas Regulation (EC) No 1393/97 established the portion of each of the quotas concerned reserved for traditional and other importers and the conditions and methods for participating in the allocation of the quantities available; whereas importers lodged applications for import licences with the competent national authorities between 20 July and 12 September 1997, 3 p.m. Brussels time, in accordance with Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 1393/97;
Whereas the Commission has received from the Member States, pursuant to Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1393/97, particulars of the numbers and aggregate volume of import licence applications submitted and the total volume imported by traditional importers in 1995, the reference year;
Whereas the Commission is now able, on the basis of that information, to establish uniform quantitative criteria by which the competent national authorities may satisfy licence applications submitted by importers in the Member States for the 1998 quantitative quotas;
Whereas examination of the figures supplied by Member States shows that the aggregate volume of applications submitted by traditional importers for the products listed at Annex I to this Regulation exceeds the portion of the quota set aside for them; whereas the applications must therefore be met by applying the uniform rate of reduction shown at Annex I to the volume of each importer's imports, expressed in quantity or value terms, over the reference period;
Whereas examination of the figures supplied by Member States shows that the aggregate volume of applications submitted by non-traditional importers for the products listed at Annex II to this Regulation exceeds the portion of the quota set aside for them; whereas the applications must therefore be met by applying the uniform rate of reduction shown at Annex II to the amounts requested by each importer, as limited by Regulation (EC) No 1393/97,
In response to licence applications in respect of the products listed at Annex I duly submitted by traditional importers, the competent national authorities shall allocate each importer a quantity or value equal to his imports for 1995 adjusted by the rate of reduction/increase specified in the said Annex for each quota.
Where the use of this quantitative criterion would entail allocating an amount greater than that applied for, the quantity or value allocated shall be limited to that specified in the application.
In response to licence applications in respect of the products listed at Annex II duly submitted by non-traditional importers, the competent national authorities shall allocate each importer a quantity or value equal to the amount requested within the limits set by Regulation (EC) No 1393/97, adjusted by the rate of reduction specified in the said Annex for each quota.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

(notified under document C(2014) 1386)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2014/127/EU)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Directive 92/65/EEC of 13 July 1992 laying down animal health requirements governing trade in and imports into the Community of animals, semen, ova and embryos not subject to animal health requirements laid down in specific Community rules referred to in Annex A(I) to Directive 90/425/EEC (1), and in particular Article 17(3)(a) thereof,
Having regard to Council Directive 2009/156/EC of 30 November 2009 on animal health conditions governing the movement and importation from third countries of equidae (2), and in particular Article 12(1) and (4), and the introductory phrase and points (a) and (b) of Article 19 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Directive 92/65/EEC lays down conditions applicable to imports into the Union, inter alia, of semen, ova and embryos of the equine species. Those conditions are to be at least equivalent to those applicable to trade between Member States.
(2) Directive 2009/156/EC lays down animal health conditions for the importation into the Union of live equidae. It provides that imports of equidae into the Union are only authorised from those third countries that meet certain animal health requirements.
(3) Commission Decision 2004/211/EC (3) establishes a list of third countries, or parts thereof where regionalisation applies, from which Member States are to authorise the importation of equidae and semen, ova and embryos thereof, and indicates the other conditions applicable to such imports. That list is set out in Annex I to Decision 2004/211/EC.
(4) In order to host an equestrian event of the Global Champions Tour in October 2013, carried out under the auspices of the World Equestrian Federation (FEI), the competent Chinese authorities requested the recognition of an equine disease-free zone in the Metropolitan area of Shanghai, directly accessible from the nearby international airport. In view of the temporary nature of the purpose build facilities at the EXPO 2010 parking it is appropriate to foresee only a temporary approval of that zone.
(5) In the light of the guarantees and information provided by the Chinese authorities and in order to allow for a limited period of time from a part of the territory of China the re-entry of registered horses after temporary export in accordance with the requirements of Commission Decision 93/195/EEC (4), the Commission adopted Implementing Decision 2013/259/EU (5) by which the region CN-2 was temporarily approved.
(6) Because the equestrian event was deferred for technical reasons to 6-8 June 2014, and the animal health conditions have remained unchanged, it is necessary to adapt for the region CN-2 the date in column 15 of the table in Annex I to Decision 2004/211/EC accordingly.
(7) Decision 2004/211/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(8) 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 column 15 of the line corresponding to the region CN-2 of China in the table in Annex I to Decision 2004/211/EC, the words ‘Valid from 24 September to 24 October 2013’ are replaced by the words: ‘Valid from 30 May to 30 June 2014’.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (3),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (4),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (5),
Whereas the present situation and the outlook on the Community market for seeds listed in the Annex to Regulation (EEC) No 2358/71 that will be sold during the 1990/91 and 1991/92 marketing years do not offer the assurance of a fair return to producers; whereas part of their costs should therefore be met by the granting of aid;
Whereas Article 3 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 2358/71 provides that the aid shall be fixed, taking into account, on the one hand, the need to ensure a balance between the volume of production required in the Community and the possible outlets for that production and, on the other hand, the prices of the products on external markets;
Whereas the varieties of rice (Oryza sativa L.) of indica type or profile available in the Community are not always well adapted to farming and weather conditions in the producing areas of the Community; whereas these varieties are in demand on the Community market; whereas the aid for rice seed should therefore be differentiated so as to encourage production of seed of the indica type or profile;
Whereas the varieties of indica type or profile in question are those specified in Regulation (EEC) No 3878/87 (6),
Whereas Articles 106 and 300 of the Act of Accession stipulate that the aid for seeds is to be granted in Spain and Portugal in accordance with Articles 79 and 246 of the said Act;
Whereas the application of these provisions results in the fixing of the amounts of aid applicable for the 1990/91 and 1991/92 marketing years at the levels set out in the Annexes hereto,
For the 1990/91 and 1991/92 marketing years the amounts of the aid granted for seeds referred to in Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 2358/71 shall be as set out in the Annexes hereto.
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 July 1989.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
