| COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 357/86
of 17 February 1986
amending Regulation (EEC) No 1531/85 opening, allocating and providing for the administration of a Community tariff quota for ferro-phosphorus falling within subheading ex 28.55 A of the Common Customs Tariff
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 28 thereof,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal (1),
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 1531/85 (2) opened for the period 1 July 1985 to 30 June 1986, a Community tariff quota for ferro-phosphorus, containing 15 % or more by weight of phosphorus falling within subheading ex 28.55 A of the Common Customs Tariff for use in the manufacture of refined phosphoric iron or steel;
Whereas, under the terms of the Act of Accession, the Kingdom of Spain and the Portuguese Republic should be able to participate in this tariff quota according to their respective needs and as from 1 March 1986; whereas this participation can initially be confined to the possibility of drawing from the constituted Community reserve the quantities corresponding to their immediate needs for imports from third countries,
Regulation (EEC) No 1531/85 shall be worded as follows:
1. Article 1 (2) shall be replaced by the following:
'2. Within these limits, the Kingdom of Spain and the Portuguese Republic shall apply customs duties calculated in accordance with the relevant provisions laid down in the 1985 Act of Accession.';
2. In Article 2, a paragraph 3 shall be added reading as follows:
'3. If an importer notifies an imminent import of the product in question in Spain or in Portugal, and requests the benefit of the quota, the Member State concerned shall inform the Commission and draw an amount corresponding to these requirements to the extent that the available balance of the reserve permits this.'
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 March 1986.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0.5 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0.5 | 0 |

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2082/92 of 14 July 1992 on certificates of specific character for agricultural products and foodstuffs (1), and in particular Article 20 thereof,
Whereas, in order to ensure that Regulation (EEC) No 2082/92 is applied uniformly, precise deadlines should be set for the registration procedure;
Whereas, in order to take account of differences in legal situation in the Member States, a statement of objection within the meaning of Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 2082/92 presented by a group of individuals linked by a common interest may be admissible;
Whereas, in order for the Commission to be able to define the Community symbol and the indication provided for in Articles 12 and 15 respectively of Regulation (EEC) No 2082/92, the necessary information should be gathered in order for an evaluation to be made;
Whereas these arrangements constitute a new Community system in response to requests from consumers for information about specific traditional products; whereas it is essential to explain the meaning of the Community symbol and the indication to the public, without thereby removing the need for producers and/or processors to promote their respective products;
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 2082/92 does not rule out the existence of national systems of certification for agricultural products and foodstuffs; whereas the use, where appropriate, of a national symbol in conjunction with the Community symbol should be permitted in the labelling, presentation and avertising of such products;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Regulatory Committee on Certificates of Specific Character,
1. The six-month period referred to in Article 9 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2082/92 shall start to run on the date of publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities referred to in second subparagraph of Article 8 (1) of that Regulation.
2. The six-month period shall consist of:
- a period of five months during which any natural or legal person legitimately concerned by the registration may object to the planned registration pursuant to Article 8 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 2082/92, and
- a period of one month, or a longer period insofar as the period provided for in paragraph 1 is observed, made available to the competent authorities in the Member States for the transmission of such objectives to the Commission.
For the purposes of the dispatch by the competent authorities of the Member State within the time limit laid down of:
- notifications of objections within the meaning of Article 9 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2082/92, and
- notifications of objections and statements within the meaning of Article 11 (4) of Regulation (EEC) No 2082/92,
account shall be taken of either the date of dispatch, the postmark being accepted as date of dispatch, or the date of receipt where the documents are delivered to the Commission directly or by telex or fax.
Where national law treats a group of individuals without legal personality as a legal person, the said group of individuals shall be authorized to consult the application within the meaning and subject to the conditions of Article 8 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 2082/92 and to lodge an objection within the meaning and subject to the conditions of Article 8 (3) of that Regulation.
1. The Community symbol referred to in Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 2082/92 and the indication referred to in Article 15 of that Regulation shall be defined as soon as possible in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 19 of that Regulation.
2. For a period of five years following the date of entry into force of this Regulation, the Commission shall take the necessary steps to inform the public of the meaning of the indication and of the Community symbol. Such steps shall not take the form of aid to producers and/or processors.
The simultaneous use of the Community symbol and national symbols shall be authorized for agricultural products and foodstuffs which satisfy both the requirements of Regulation (EEC) No 2082/92 and national requirements to which those products or foodstuffs correspond.
Subsequent to the registration provided for in Article 9 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2082/92, the competent authorities shall ensure that any individual may consult the specificaiton of the agricultural product or foodstuff which has been so registered.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 26 July 1993.

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3815/89 (3) has laid down detailed rules for the application of the compensation mechanism to imports of fruit and vegetables from Spain; whereas it is convenient to lay down in a single Regulation the detailed rules for the application of the abovementioned mechanisms of compensation introduced by Articles 152 and 318 of the Act of Accession; whereas detailed rules should be laid down for recording and forwarding prices of products in the Community of Ten, Spain and Portugal, which is required for the operation of the compensation mechanism;
Whereas the data which are already forwarded by the Member States to the Commission under Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2118/74 of 9 August 1974 laying down detailed rules for the application of the system of reference prices for fruit and vegetables (4), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3811/85 (5), should be used as far as possible;

| 15.5.2006 EN Official Journal of the European Union L 127/1
COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 728/2006
of 15 May 2006
suspending and conditionally repealing Regulation (EC) No 2193/2003 establishing additional customs duties on imports of certain products originating in the United States of America
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 133 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas:
(1) On 7 May 2003, the Community was authorised by the Dispute Settlement Body (DSB) of the World Trade Organization (WTO) to impose countermeasures up to a level of USD 4 043 million in the form of additional 100 % ad valorem duties on certain products originating in the United States of America. Consequently, on 8 December 2003 the Community adopted Council Regulation (EC) No 2193/2003 establishing additional customs duties on imports of certain products originating in the United States of America (1).
(2) The Community, pending the outcome of further WTO litigation regarding the WTO compatibility of the transition and grandfathering provisions of the FSC Repeal and Extraterritorial Income Act of 2000 (FSC-ETI Act) and of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (JOBS Act), amended and suspended the application of Regulation (EC) No 2193/2003 by the adoption of Regulation (EC) No 171/2005.
(3) Regulation (EC) No 171/2005 stipulates that reintroduction of additional duties would only take effect again on 1 January 2006 or 60 days after the DSB confirms, whichever date is later, the incompatibility of certain aspects of the abovementioned Act with WTO law.
(4) On 14 March 2006 the DSB confirmed the WTO incompatibility of the challenged US measures following a panel and Appellate Body ruling on the matter. The Commission on 3 May 2006 published a notice informing that an additional duty of 14 % ad valorem would become applicable on 16 May 2006.
(5) The US Congress has now adopted legislation repealing the grandfathering provisions of the FSC-ETI Act and of the JOBS Act for the next taxable years and therefore countermeasures imposed under Council Regulation (EC) No 2193/2003, as amended by Council Regulation (EC) No 171/2005, have achieved their objective to a sufficient extent and reintroduction of countermeasures would be unnecessarily disruptive.
(6) Since the President of the United States has to sign the Bill into law, the reintroduction of sanctions should continue to be suspended until such signature has taken place, and the repeal of countermeasures imposed under Regulation (EC) No 2193/2003, as amended by Council Regulation (EC) No 171/2005, should only become effective once this signature has taken place,
1. The suspension of the application of additional duties provided for in Articles 1 and 2 of Regulation (EC) 171/2005 is hereby extended until 29 May 2006.
2. In the event that the President of the United States signs the Bill adopted by the Congress of the United States repealing the grandfathering provisions of the FSC-ETI Act and of the JOBS Act on or before 26 May 2006 Regulation (EC) No 2193/2003 shall be repealed with effect from 29 May 2006.
3. After the abovementioned signature has taken place, the Commission shall promptly publish a notice in the Official Journal of the European Union announcing that such signature has taken place and that Council Regulation (EC) No 2193/2003 is repealed with effect from 29 May 2006.
4. In the event that no such signature takes place by 26 May 2006, the Commission shall promptly publish a notice in the Official Journal of the European Union announcing that no such signature has taken place and that countermeasures as provided for in Regulation (EC) No 2193/2003 become applicable again with effect from 30 May 2006.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day 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. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |

Whereas:
(1) The animal health conditions and veterinary certification for the importation of fresh meat from certain European countries were established by Commission Decision 98/371/EC(3) concerning the animal health conditions and veterinary certification for imports of fresh meat from certain European countries, as last amended by Decision 2001/774/EC(4).
(2) Article 14(1) of Directive 72/462/EEC provides that meat intended for export to the Community must come from animals which have stayed for a three-month period prior to their slaughter in one of the countries or territories thereof that are approved for imports to the Community.
(3) It is appropriate, in the case of equine animals, to consider that requirement to be met if the animals have stayed for three months at least either in the country of slaughter or in another country approved for the same purpose provided that appropriate certification is given.
(4) The relevant model certificate annexed to Decision 98/371/EC must therefore be amended accordingly.
(5) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Veterinary Committee,
Annex III to Decision 98/371/EC is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Decision.

Having regard to Council Directive 86/469/EEC of 16 September 1986 concerning the examination of animals and fresh meat for the presence of residues (3), and in particular Article 7 thereof,

Whereas the authorities of Iceland have transmitted a satisfactory plan specifying the guarantees offered in respect of monitoring of residues in fresh meat for substances other than those having a hormonal action;
Whereas for these types of substances, imports of fresh ovine meat from Iceland should be authorized and Decision 90/135/EEC consequently amended;

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Decision No 406/2009/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 April 2009 on the effort of Member States to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions to meet the Community’s greenhouse gas reduction commitments up to 2020 (1), and in particular Article 10 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) To implement Article 10 of Decision No 406/2009/EC, Member States’ annual emissions allocations for the period from 2013 to 2020 as determined pursuant to the Commission Decision 2013/162/EU (2) should be adjusted in accordance with the quantity of:
— allowances to be issued in respect of installations carrying out activities listed in Annex I of Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (3) which are only included in the emissions trading scheme of the Union (EU ETS) from 2013 onwards,
— allowances issued pursuant to Commission Decisions approving the unilateral inclusion by certain Member States of additional activities and gases in the Emissions Trading Scheme under Article 24(1) of Directive 2003/87/EC in between 2008 and 2012 and,
— allowances corresponding to installations excluded from the EU ETS pursuant to Article 27 of Directive 2003/87/EC as of 2013 for the time they are excluded.
(2) Data as submitted by the Member States pursuant to Article 9a(2) of Directive 2003/87/EC and as contained in Commission Decisions C(2011)3798, C(2008)7867, C(2009)3032, C(2009)9849 and C(2012)497 to accept the unilateral inclusion of additional greenhouse gases and activities by Italy, the Netherlands, Austria, Latvia and the United Kingdom pursuant to Article 24 of Directive 2003/87/EC, as well as taking in consideration the exclusion of installations with low emissions from the EU ETS by Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Spain, Croatia, Slovenia and Italy pursuant to Article 27 of Directive 2003/87/EC and adjusted by the Commission with the 1,74 % linear factor, were used in the calculation of the adjustment to each Member State’s annual emission allocation, as relevant.
(3) The quantity relevant for the application of Article 7 of Decision No 406/2009/EC should be calculated as the difference between the annual emission allocations laid down in Decision 2013/162/EU and the adjustments as set out in this Decision. If the adjustment figure is negative, the relevant quantity should be calculated by increasing the annual emission allocations as laid down in Decision 2013/162/EU by the adjustments set out in this Decision.
(4) To ensure consistency between the determination of the annual emission allocations, the adjustments thereto and the reported greenhouse gas emissions for each year, Member States’ adjustments to the annual emission allocations should also be calculated by applying the global warming potential values from the fourth assessment report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change adopted by Decision 15/CP.17 of the Conference of the Parties of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. The adjustments to the annual emission allocations calculated as such should become applicable from the first year for which the reporting of greenhouse gas inventories using these new global warming potential values becomes compulsory pursuant to Article 7(6)b of Regulation (EU) No 525/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4).
(5) In order to ensure the timely implementation of Decision No 406/2009/EC and to ensure legal certainty regarding Member States’ adjusted annual emissions allocations and the quantity relevant for the application of Article 7 of Decision No 406/2009/EC, this Decision should enter into force three days after its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
The adjustments to the annual emission allocations for each Member State for each year of the period from 2013 to 2020 are set out in Annex I.
Where an act adopted pursuant to Article 7(6)b of Regulation (EU) No 525/2013 provides for Member States to submit greenhouse gas emissions inventories determined using global warming potential values from the 4th IPCC assessment report as adopted by Decision15/CP.17 of the Conference of the Parties of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, the adjustments to the annual emission allocations set out in Annex II shall apply as of the first year for which such reporting of greenhouse gas inventories becomes compulsory. Where this Article applies, Article 1 shall not.
This Decision shall enter into force on the third day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0.666667 | 0 | 0 | 0.333333 | 0 |

| COMMISSION DECISION of 21 December 1993 authorizing Member States to permit temporarily the marketing of forest reproductive material not satisfying the requirements of Council Directives 66/404/EEC and 71/161/EEC (94/20/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 66/404/EEC of 14 June 1966 on the marketing of forest reproductive material (1), as last amended by Directive 90/654/EEC (2) and in particular Article 15 thereof,
Having regard to Council Directive 71/161/EEC of 30 March 1971 on external quality standards for forest reproductive material marketed within the Community (3), as last amended by Directive 90/654/EEC, and in particular Article 15 thereof,
Having regard to the requests submitted by certain Member States,
Whereas production of reproductive material of the species set out in the Annexes is at present insufficient in all Member States, as well as in Austria, for which the Council has stated the equivalence of the reproductive material there harvested, with the result that their requirements for reproductive material conforming to the provisions of Directives 66/404/EEC and 71/161/EEC cannot be met;
Whereas third countries are not in a position to supply sufficient reproductive material of the relevant species which can afford the same guarantees as Community reproductive material and which conforms to the provisions of the abovementioned Directives;
Whereas the Member States should therefore be authorized to permit, for a limited period, the marketing of reproductive material of the relevant species which satisfies less stringent requirements to cover the shortage of reproductive material satisfying the requirements of Directive 66/404/EEC or 71/161/EEC;
Whereas, for genetic reasons, the reproductive material must be collected at places of origin within the natural range of the relevant species and the strictest possible guarantees should be given to ensure the identity of the material;
Whereas, furthermore, reproductive material should be marketed only if it is accompanied by a document bearing certain details of the reproductive material in question;
Whereas each of the Member States should furthermore be authorized to permit the marketing in its territory of seed and plants which satisfy less stringent requirements in respect of provenance, as laid down in Directive 66/404/EEC or seed which satisfies less stringent requirements in respect of specific purity as laid down in Directive 71/161/EEC, if the marketing of such material has been authorized in the other Member States under this Decision;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Seeds and Propagating Material for Agriculture, Horticulture and Forestry,
1. Member States are authorized to permit the marketing in their territory of seed which does not satisfy the requirements in respect of provenance in Directive 66/404/EEC on the terms set out in Annex I hereto and on condition that the proof specified in Article 2 is furnished with regard to the place of provenance of the seed and the altitude at which it was collected.
2. Member States are authorized to permit the marketing in their territory of plants produced in the Community from the abovementioned seed.
1. The proof referred to in Article 1 (1) shall be deemed to be furnished where the reproductive material is of the category 'source-identified reproductive material' as defined in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) scheme for the control of forest reproductive material moving in international trade, or of another category defined in that scheme.
2. Where the OECD scheme referred to in paragraph 1 is not used at the place of provenance of the reproductive material, other official evidence shall be admissible.
3. Where official evidence cannot be provided, Member States may accept other non-official evidence.
Member States are authorized on the terms set out in Annex II hereto, to permit the marketing in their territory of seed which does not satisfy the requirements relating to specific purity in Annex I to Directive 71/161/EEC, provided that the document required pursuant to Article 9 of Directive 66/404/EEC bears the wording:
'Seed not satisfying the standards in respect of specific purity'.
The Member States other than the applicant Member States are also authorized to permit, on the terms set out in Annexes I and II respectively and for the purposes intended by the applicant Member States, the marketing in their territory of the seeds and plants authorized to be marketed under this Decision.
The authorizations provided for in Articles 1 (1) and 3 in so far as they concern the first placing of forest reproductive material on the market of the Community, shall expire on 30 November 1994. Such authorizations, in so far as they concern subsequent placing on the market of the Community, shall expire on 31 December 1996.
With regard to the first placing on the market of forest reproductive material, as referred to in Article 5, Member States shall, by 1 January 1995, notify the Commission of the quantities of such material satisfying less stringent requirements which have been approved for marketing in their territory under this Decision. The Commission shall inform the other Member States thereof.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3491/93 of 13 December 1993 on certain procedures for applying the Europe Agreement establishing an association between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Hungary, of the other part (1), and in particular Article 1 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3492/93 of 13 December 1993 on certain procedures for applying the Europe Agreement establishing an association between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Poland, of the other part (2), and in particular Article 1 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3296/94 of 19 December 1994 on certain procedures for applying the Europe Agreement establishing an association between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Czech Republic, of the other part (3), and in particular Article 1 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3297/94 of 19 December 1994 on certain procedures for applying the Europe Agreement establishing an association between the European Communities and their Member States of the one part, and the Slovak Republic, of the other part (4), and in particular Article 1 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3290/94 of 22 December 1994 on the adjustments and transitional arrangements required in the agriculture sector in order to implement the agreements concluded during the Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations (5) and in particular Article 3 (1) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in beef and veal (6), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 424/95 (7), and in particular Article 9 (2) thereof,
Whereas the Europe Agreements concluded with Poland (8), Hungary (9), the Czech Republic (10) and the Slovak Republic (11) provide for an annual tariff quota for imports of bovine animals weighing between 160 and 300 kilograms originating in and coming from Poland, Hungary, the Slovak Republic or the Czech Republic at a reduced 25 % levy;
Whereas the reference quantity fixed in the Europe Agreements for 1995 is 277 200 head; whereas the quantity of young male bovine animals for fattening, which is to be deducted from the above quantity, comes to 99 000 head in the first half of 1995 and 84 500 head in the second half; whereas this leads to an annual tariff quota for 1995 of 93 700 head; whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 3170/94 of 21 December 1994 opening for the first half of 1995 and laying down detailed rules for the application of an import quota for live bovine animals weighing between 160 and 300 kilograms, originating in and coming from the Republic of Poland, the Republic of Hungary, the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic (12), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 844/95 (13), provides for an initial quantity of 39 600 head on this quota for the first half of 1995; whereas the remaining quota of 54 100 head should now be opened for the second half of 1995;
Whereas, with a view to preventing speculation, the quantity available should be made available for operators able to show that they are carrying out a genuine activity involving trade in a significant number of animals with countries which are considered to be third countries on 31 December 1994; whereas in consideration of this and in order to ensure efficient management, a minimum of 50 animals should be required to have been exported or imported during 1994 by the operators concerned; whereas a batch of 50 animals in principle constitutes a normal load and whereas experience has shown that the sale or purchase of a single batch is a minimum requirement for a transaction to be considered real and viable;
Whereas, while recalling the provisions of the Agreements intended to guarantee product origin, the quotas in question should be managed using import licences; whereas to this end rules should be set on submission of applications and the information to be given on applications and licences, by way of derogation from certain provisions of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3719/88 of 16 November 1988 laying down common detailed rules for application of the system of import and export licences and advance fixing certificates for agricultural products (14), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1199/95 (15), and of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1445/95 of 26 June 1995 on rules of application for import and export licences in the beef and veal sector and repealing Regulation (EEC) No 2377/80 (16); whereas it should moreover be stipulated that licences are to be issued following a reflection period and where necessary with a flat-rate percentage reduction applied;
Whereas under the Agreement on Agriculture concluded as part of the Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations (17) the Community has undertaken to convert the variable agricultural levies into fixed customs duties with effect from 1 July 1995; whereas it is accordingly necessary to provide, as a temporary measure for the period 1 July 1995 to 31 December 1995, that the rate of reduction of the full levy under the tariff quota should apply to the specific customs duties set in the common customs tariff;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Beef and Veal,
1. As part of the tariff quotas provided for in the Europe Agreements, a total of 54 100 head of live bovine animals falling within CN codes 0102 90 41 or 0102 90 49 originating in and coming from Poland, Hungary, the Slovak Republic or the Czech Republic may hereby be imported in the second half of 1995 in accordance with the provisions of this Regulation.
2. The specific duties fixed in the common customs tariff shall be reduced by 75 % in respect of the quantities referred to in paragraph 1.
In order to qualify for the quota referred to in Article 1:
(a) applicants or import licences must be natural or legal persons who, at the time applications are submitted, must prove to the satisfaction of the competent authorities of the Member State concerned that they have imported and/or exported during 1994 at least 50 animals falling within CN code 0102 90 and originating in or intended for countries which are considered by their authorities to be third countries on 31 December 1994; applicants must be listed in the national VAT register;
(b) licence applications may be presented only in the Member State in which the applicant is so registered;
(c) licence applications shall relate to
- a number equal to or greater than 50 head and
- a quantity not exceeding 10 % of the total quantity available.
Where applications for import licences exceed this quantity, they shall only be considered within the limits of the said quantity;
(d) Section 7 of licence applications and licences shall show the country from which the animals are imported and section 8 shall show the country of origin; licences shall carry with them an obligation to import from one or more of the countries indicated in Article 1 (1);
(e) Section 20 of licence applications and licences shall show at least one of the following wordings:

5. Subject to a decision to accept applications by the Commission, licences shall be issued at the earliest opportunity.
6. Import licences shall be issued for a number equal to or greater than 50 head.
If, because of the numbers applied for, the percentage reduction results in fewer than 50 head per import licence, the Member States shall, by drawing lots, allocate licences covering 50 head.
If the remaining balance is less than 50 head, a single licence shall cover that quantity.
7. Licences issued shall be valid throughout the Community.
Without prejudice to the provisions of this Regulation, Regulations (EEC) No 3719/88 and (EC) No 1445/95 shall apply.

(3) In order to ensure uniform application of the Combined Nomenclature annexed to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87, it is necessary to specify the reasons for the classification of the good mentioned in the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 834/95, in order to clarify why the classified product is an ordinary version of a knee-bandage.
(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee,
In Column 3 (reasons) of the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 834/95 the following paragraph is added.
"Classification of the article in heading 9021 as orthopaedic appliance is excluded, because the hinges are not adjustable to a specific handicap of a patient. Moreover, the article does not show a high degree of precision.
Therefore, the article is an ordinary support for general use and it does not serve a specific medical purpose.
The adjustment of the article around the leg by two 'velcro-type' strips, does not serve any specific medical purpose, because the 'velcro-type' strips merely hold the knee-pad in place."
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (1), and in particular Article 164(2), and Article 170, in conjunction with Article 4 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 162(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 provides that the difference between prices on the world market for the products referred to in Part XIX of Annex I to that Regulation and prices in the Union for those products may be covered by an export refund.
(2) In view of the current situation on the market in eggs, export refunds should be fixed in accordance with the rules and certain criteria provided for in Articles 162, 163, 164, 167 and 169 of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007.
(3) Article 164(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 provides that refunds may vary according to destination, especially where the world market situation, the specific requirements of certain markets, or obligations resulting from agreements concluded in accordance with Article 300 of the Treaty make this necessary.
(4) Refunds should be granted only on products which are authorised to move freely within the Union and comply with requirements under Regulation (EC) No 852/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 on the hygiene of foodstuffs (2) and of Regulation (EC) No 853/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 laying down specific hygiene rules for food of animal origin (3), as well as marking requirements under point A of Annex XIV to Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007.
(5) The currently applicable refunds have been fixed by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1057/2011 (4). Since new refunds should be fixed, that Regulation should therefore be repealed.

laying down detailed rules on production aid for durum wheat
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 of the Council of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in cereals (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1213/89 (2), and in particular Article 10 (5) thereof,
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 3103/76 of 16 December 1976 on aid for durum wheat (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1216/89 (4), laid down genereal rules on aid for durum wheat; whereas the Commission must lay down the detailed rules for their application;
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 3103/76 laid down criteria for determining qualitative and technical characteristics; whereas such characteristics must be such that the durum wheat is capable of being made into semolina or pasta meeting certain requirements for human consumption; whereas the best indicator of these is the stickiness of the pasta when cooked;
Whereas Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 3103/76 provides that Member States are to introduce a system of administrative supervision to ensure that a product for which aid is applied for meets the requirements for granting such aid; whereas an application for aid must contain at least certain particulars to enable Member States to make the necessary checks; whereas Article 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 3103/76 provides for random on-the-spot checks to ascertain the accuracy of particulars declared; whereas, if such checks are to be effective, they must be carried out on a sufficiently representative number of applications for aid;
Whereas experience in policing the current system indicates that stricter supervision and sanctions should be provided for;
Whereas, under Article 2 (1) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1676/85 of 11 June 1985 on the value of the unit of account and the conversion rates to be applied for the purposes of the common agricultural policy (5), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1636/87 (6), the amount of the aid is to be converted into national currency at the rate prevailing on the date the transaction or part transaction was carried out;
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 1676/85 provides that the time when a transaction is carried out is considered as being the date of the event by which the aid becomes due and payable; whereas in the case of durum wheat that event is harvest; whereas, in view of the difficulty of determining the exact date of harvest in each case, the date to be taken as the representative date of harvest should be the first day of the marketing year in respect of which the entitlement to aid arises;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are to supersede those provided for in Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2835/77 of 19 December 1977 laying down detailed rules with respect to aid for durum wheat (7), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2039/86 (8);
Whereas the Management Committee for Cereals has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman,
The aid referred to in Article 10 of Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 shall be granted for durum wheat produced in the Community in accordance with the conditions set out in the following Articles.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 64/432/EEC of 26 June 1964 on health problems affecting intra-Community trade in bovine animals and swine(1), as last amended by Directive 98/99/EC(2), and in particular Article 6(2)(b) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Bovine animals intended for intra-Community trade must, with regard to bovine brucellosis, come from a holding officially free of bovine brucellosis and, in addition, be tested within 30 days of dispatch by use of either a serum-agglutination test or any other test approved by Standing Veterinary Committee procedure following the adoption of the relevant protocols.
(2) In accordance with Article 16 of Directive 64/432/EEC, the Commission, in acordance with the procedures of Article 17 and on the basis of the opinion of the Scientific Veterinary Committee, shall update and if necessary amend Annexes B, C and D (Chapter II) to adapt them to scientific developments.
(3) The Commission has now received the final report of the Scientific Committee on Animal Health and Animal Welfare on the modification of the technical annexes to Directive 64/432/EEC to take account of scientific developments regarding tuberculosis, brucellosis and enzootic bovine leucosis(3).
(4) In this report the Scientific Committee recommended the preferential use of ELISA tests, the complement fixation test and the buffered brucella antigen tests for the detection of antibodies against bovine brucellosis, carried out inter alia on samples of blood taken from individual bovine animals. The recommended procedures are in line with the internationally recognised standards set out by the OIE (Manual of standards, Edition 1996, Chapter 3.2.1).
(5) It appears appropriate to recognise for certification purposes the brucellosis test results produced by use of ELISA tests, the complement fixation test and the buffered brucella antigen tests, if the tests were carried out in accordance with the approved protocols on samples of blood taken from individually identified bovine animals within the 30 days prior to certification of the tested animals for intra-Community trade.
(6) Therefore, pending the update of the technical Annexes B, C and D (Chapter II) in accordance with Article 16 of Directive 64/432/EEC, the ELISA tests, as specified in the report of the Scientific Committee and the complement fixation test and the buffered brucella antigen tests as specified in Annex C to that Directive shall be approved for brucellosis testing for certification purposes as provided for in Article 6(2)(b) and the animal health certificate in Annex F, model 1.
(7) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing veterinary Committee,
The following tests for the detection of antibodies for bovine brucellosis are hereby approved for certification purposes referred to in Article 6(2)(b) of Directive 64/432/EEC:
1. the complement fixation test and the buffered brucella antigen tests carried out in accordance with the provisions set up in Annex C of Directive 64/432/EEC;
2. the ELISA tests carried out in accordance with the provisions set up in the Annex to this Decision.
Where, for the purposes referred to in Article 6(2)(b) of Directive 64/432/EEC a test referred to in Article 1 of this Decision is used, the test must be specified in the column "Test" of the tables in point 3, second indent, and in point 5 of Section A in Annex F, Model 1 (health certificate) to Directive 64/432/EEC.

(4) Article 21 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 800/1999 of 15 April 1999 laying down detailed rules for the application of the system of export refunds on agricultural products (2), stipulates that no refund is granted if the products are not of sound and fair marketable quality on the date on which the export declaration is accepted. In order to ensure uniform application of the rules in force, it should be stated that, in order to qualify for the refund, the egg products listed in Article 1 of Regulation (EEC) No 2771/75 must bear the health mark laid down in Council Directive 89/437/EEC of 20 June 1989 on hygiene and health problems affecting the production and the placing on the market of egg products (3).

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) (hereinafter referred to as "the Basic Regulation"), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 905/98(2), and in particular Article 11(4) thereof,
After consulting the Advisory Committee,
Whereas:
A. Request for a review
(1) The Commission has received an application for a "new exporter" review pursuant to Article 11(4) of the Basic Regulation. The application was lodged by Subham Polymers Ltd (hereinafter referred to as "the applicant"), an exporting producer in India.
B. Product
(2) The product concerned is the same as that described in Article 1 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1950/97(3) (hereinafter referred to as "the Regulation"), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 96/1999(4), woven sacks and bags of a kind used for packaging of goods, not knitted or crocheted, obtained from a polyethylene or polypropylene strip or the like of woven fabrics weighing 120 g/m2 or less. The product is currently classifiable within CN codes 63053281, 6305 33 91, ex 3923 21 00, ex 3923 29 10 and ex 3923 29 90. These codes are given for information only.
C. Existing measures
(3) The measures currently in force are a definitive anti-dumping duty imposed by the Regulation, under which imports into the Community of the product concerned originating in India and produced by this company are subject to a definitive antidumping duty of 36,0 %, with the exception of imports from several companies specifically mentioned, which are subject to a lesser duty. The Regulation was subsequently amended by Regulation (EC) No 96/1999.
D. Grounds for the review
(4) The applicant alleges that it did not export the product concerned to the Community during the period of investigation on which the anti-dumping measures were based, i.e. the period from 1 April 1994 to 31 March 1995 (hereinafter referred to as "the original investigation period").
The applicant further alleges that it has begun exporting the product concerned to the Community after the end of the investigation period, and that it is not related to any of the exporting producers of the product concerned which are subject to the abovementioned anti-dumping measures.
E. Procedure
(5) Community producers known to be concerned have been informed of the above application and have been given an opportunity to comment. No comments have been received.
(6) Having examined the evidence available, the Commission concludes that there is sufficient evidence to justify the initiation of a review pursuant to Article 11(4) of the Basic Regulation with a view to determining the applicant's individual margin of dumping and, should dumping be found, the level of duty to which its imports of the product concerned into the Community should be subject.
(a) Questionnaires
In order to obtain the information it deems necessary for its investigation, the Commission will send a questionnaire to the applicant.
(b) Collection of information and holding of hearings
All interested parties are hereby invited to make their views known in writing and to provide supporting evidence. Furthermore, the Commission may hear interested parties, provided that they make a request in writing and show that there are particular reasons why they should be heard.
F. Repeal of the duty in force and registration of imports

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (2),
In cooperation with the Euroepan Parliament (3),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (4),
Whereas the internal market comprises an area without internal frontiers in which the free movement of goods, persons, services and capital is ensured; whereas measures necessary to that end should be adopted;
Whereas, with regard to their statutory markings, in each Member State two- or three-wheel motor vehicles must display certain technical characteristics laid down by mandatory provisions which differ from one Member State to another; whereas, as a result of their differences, such provisions constitute a barrier to trade within the Community;
Whereas those obstacles to the establishment and operation of the internal market may be removed if the same requirements are adopted by all Member States in place of their national rules;
Whereas it is necessary to draw up harmonized requirements concerning statutory markings for two- or three-wheel motor vehicles in order to enable the type-approval and component type-approval procedures laid down in Directive 92/61/EEC to be applied for each type of such vehicle;
Whereas, given the scale and impact of the action proposed in the sector in question, the Community measures covered by this Directive are necessary, indeed essential, to achieve the aim in view, which is to establish Community vehicle type-approval; whereas that aim cannot be adequately achieved by the Member States individually;
Whereas, with regard to the statutory markings applicable to two- or three-wheel motor vehicles, this Directive does not prevent certain Member States from retaining, on a non-discriminatory basis, specific mandatory provisions for the purposes of applying traffic regulations, provided that such specific requirements concern the use of these vehicles and do not involve any modifications in their construction likely to create an obstacle to Community type-approval of this type of vehicle,
This Directive applies to the statutory markings for all types of vehicles as defined in Article 1 of Directive 92/61/EEC.
The procedure for the granting of component type-approval in respect of the statutory markings for a type of two- or three-wheel motor vehicle and the conditions governing the free movement of such vehicles shall be as laid down in Chapters II and III of Directive 92/61/EEC.
Any amendments necessary to adapt the requirements of the Annexes to technical progress shall be adopted in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 13 of Directive 70/156/EEC (5).
1. Member States shall adopt and publish the provisions necessary to comply with this Directive not later than 14 December 1994. They shall forthwith inform the Commission thereof.
When the Member States adopt these provisions, they shall contain a reference to this Directive or shall be accompanied by such a reference on the occasion of their official publication. The methods of making such a reference shall be laid down by the Member States.
From the date mentioned in the first subparagraph Member States may not, for reasons connected with statutory markings, prohibit the initial entry into service of vehicles which conform to this Directive.
They shall apply the provisions referred to in the first subparagraph as from 14 June 1995.
2. Member States shall communicate to the Commission the texts of the provisions of national law which they adopt in the field governed by this Directive.

Whereas Article 4(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3950/92 provides that individual reference quantities are to be increased or established at the duly justified request of producers to take account of changes in their deliveries and/or direct sales; whereas an increase in or establishment of a reference quantity must be offset by a corresponding reduction or deletion of the other reference quantity held by the producer;
Whereas such adjustments may not involve for the Member State concerned an increase in the sum of the delivery and direct sale quantities indicated in Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 3950/92; whereas in the event of definitive changes to individual reference quantities the quantities set in the said Article 3 are to be adjusted accordingly through the procedure laid down in Article 30 of Regulation (EEC) No 804/68;
Whereas pursuant to Article 8, third indent, of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 536/93(7), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1255/98(8), Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Spain, France, Ireland, the Netherlands, Austria and the United Kingdom have notified the Commission of quantities definitively modified as mentioned in the second subparagraph of Article 4(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3950/92; whereas the total quantities for these Member States set in Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 3950/92 should therefore be adjusted accordingly;

(3) Annexes I and II to Directive 2000/25/EC need to be adapted, notably to take account of the introduction by Directive 97/68/EC as amended by Directive 2004/26/EC of new emission limits for combined emission of hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen. Other changes should be introduced in those annexes to ensure consistency between the provisions on information documents laid down in Directives 2000/25/EC, 97/68/EC and 2003/37/EC. In addition, Annex III to Directive 2000/25/EC needs to be adapted in order to add the alternative type-approvals to be recognised for the new stages III A, III B and IV.

| COMMISSION DECISION of 16 December 1997 approving the multiannual guidance programme for the fishing fleet of Germany for the period from 1 January 1997 to 31 December 2001 (Only the German text is authentic) (98/122/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3699/93 of 21 December 1993 laying down the criteria and arrangements regarding Community structural assistance in the fisheries and aquaculture sector and the processing and marketing of its products (1) as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 25/97 (2), and in particular Articles 5 and 6 thereof,
Having regard to Council Decision 97/413/EC of 26 June 1997 concerning the objectives and detailed rules for restructuring the Community fisheries sector for the period from 1 January 1997 to 31 December 2001 with a view to achieving a balance on a sustainable basis between resources and their exploitation (3) and in particular Article 9(1) thereof,
Whereas Decision 97/413/EC was adopted pursuant to the provisions of Article 11 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 3760/92 of 20 December 1992 establishing a Community system for fisheries and aquaculture (4), as amended by the Act of Accession of Austria, Finland and Sweden;
Whereas Germany, hereinafter referred to as 'the Member State`, on 26 June 1997, in accordance with Article 6(1) of Decision 97/413/EC, submitted to the Commission a fishing effort limitation programme for the period from 1 January 1997 to 31 December 2001, and has supplemented this programme by further information at later dates; whereas Article 9(1) of Decision 97/413/EC provides that the Commission shall adopt the multiannual guidance programmes (MAGP) for the fishing fleets of individual Member States no later than 30 November 1997;
Whereas Article 6(2) of Decision 97/413/EC provides that capacity reductions shall be ensured by the establishment in each Member State of a permanent regime to control the renewal of the fleet, which will determine, segment by segment, the ratio of entries/exits of vessels; whereas the programmes submitted by Member States either contain no information on this issue whatsoever or are unsatisfactory; whereas Member States should therefore communicate the necessary information to the Commission at a later stage;
Whereas Article 7(1) of Decision 97/413/EC provides that the starting point for the objectives fixed for the fishing fleets for 31 December 2001 shall be the fleet objectives fixed by the previous programme for 31 December 1996;
Whereas the objectives fixed by the previous programme should be adjusted in cases where this is justified by new information supplied by the Member State concerned;
Whereas, pursuant to Article 7(2) of Decision 97/413/EC, the particular situation of the fleet of each Member State concerned must be taken into account in fixing the objectives applicable to that fleet;
Whereas Decision 97/413/EC, and in particular Article 9(1) thereof, requires the fixing of annual intermediate targets; whereas since a large part of the first year of the period covered by the programmes will have elapsed at the time of the adoption of the present Decision it is not appropriate to set an intermediate objective for 1997;
Whereas, pursuant to Article 9(1) of Decision 97/413/EC, the Commission shall adopt the detailed rules for the implementation of that Decision; whereas it is useful to clarify certain concepts;
Whereas the starting point for calculating the intermediate and final fleet objectives under MAGP IV are the fleet objectives fixed by the previous programmes for 31 December 1996 (MAGP III); whereas the tonnage objectives set by MAGP III were expressed in gross registered tonnes (GRT), but the MAGP IV objectives must be expressed in units of gross tonnes (GT); whereas not all Member States have submitted GT values for all fishing vessels of the fleet concerned notwithstanding their obligation to measure or estimate the GT of all vessels in their fleet, and to transmit this information to the Commission;
Whereas, in those circumstances, the Commission must, using a practical approach, estimate the missing GT values in order to provisionally determine that Member State's MAGP IV intermediate and final objectives on the basis of those estimates;
Whereas however the Commission cannot accept any claims by Member States that fishing effort and/or capacity has been reduced in as far as they relate to vessels for which the Member State concerned has not fulfilled its obligation to transmit at GT value or estimate to the Commission, since the exact amount of that reduction is not verifiable;
Whereas, in the absence of the required GT tonnage values measured or estimated in accordance with the provisions of Council Regulation (EC) No 2930/86 of 22 September 1986 defining the characteristics of fishing vessels (5), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 3259/94 (6) and implemented by Commission Decision 95/84/EC (7), the Commission will be unable to verify the percentage changes in the fleet capacity or fishing effort represented by changes in the capacity or activity of individual vessels, or by vessel entries or exits to and from the fleet; whereas the Commission will therefore have to assess whether the fishing effort reductions applied to vessels for which the required GT values are available have been sufficient to be almost certain that a Member State has reached its MAGP IV objectives;
Whereas, since the starting point for the MAGP IV objectives are the final MAGP III objectives, a Member State cannot be deemed to have reached either intermediate or final MAGP IV objectives until it has fulfilled its obligations under MAGP III, and in particular the obligation to reach at least 55 % of the MAGP III obligations by reductions in capacity,
Whereas the segmentation of the fleet must take into account the segmentation adopted by the previous programme;
Whereas in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No 109/94 of 19 January 1994 concerning the Community register of fishing vessels (8), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 493/96 (9), each Member State must communicate all changes to the situation of the fishing fleet and the evolution of fishing effort by fishery;
Whereas the calculation of the objectives of the programme is based on information supplied by the Member State; whereas it may be necessary to revise the objectives if this information is later found to have been inaccurate;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fisheries and Aquaculture,
The multiannual guidance programme for the fishing fleet of Germany for the period 1 January 1997 to 31 December 2001, as forwarded on 26 June 1997 and subsequently supplemented, is hereby approved, subject to the conditions laid down in this Decision and the Annex thereto.
The Member State shall ensure that any reductions in capacity or fishing effort that are required to meet the final objectives of the programme are achieved progressively. To this end intermediate objectives are set such that at least one quarter of the reductions are achieved by 31 December 1998, half of the reductions are achieved by 31 December 1999 and three-quarters of the reductions are achieved by 31 December 2000.
In order to ensure that the final and intermediate objectives of the programme will be met, the Member State shall communicate to the Commission for approval the regime of entries/exits of vessels referred to in Article 6(2) of Decision 97/413/EC.
1. The following units shall be used to measure whether the final and intermediate MAGP IV objectives have been met:
(i) the capacity of a vessel is measured both in terms of its tonnage expressed in gross tonnes (GT) and in terms of its power measured in kW according to the provisions of Regulation (EC) No 2930/86;
(ii) the fishing activity of a vessel is measured in days at sea in accordance with Annex VI to Regulation (EC) No 109/94;
(iii) in accordance with Annex VI to Regulation (EC) No 109/94 the fishing effort of a vessel is measured both as tonnage effort, defined as the product of its activity and its tonnage expressed in GT, and as power effort, defined as the product of its activity and its power expressed in kW.
2. Active and passive gears correspond to the lists of towed and static gears respectively in Annex I, Table 2 to Regulation (EC) No 109/94, with the exception of purse seines which are considered to be active gears for the purposes of the present Decision.
3. Fleet segments and, if applicable, fisheries are defined as shown in the Annex and in accordance with point 1 of the additional provisions thereof.
1. Until such time as a Member State has fulfilled its obligations pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 2930/86 to submit a measured or duly estimated GT value of a vessel, for the purposes of MAGP IV, the GT of that vessel shall be estimated by the Commission as being equivalent to the tonnage of that vessel expressed in GRT.
2. Any fishing effort reduction, including capacity reductions, claimed by a Member State shall not be taken into account by the Commission unless the Member State has fulfilled its obligation pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 2930/86 to furnish the Commission with the GT value or estimate of the vessel concerned.
3. If a Member State has not transmitted all the values or estimates of GT required pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 2930/86 necessary in order to determine whether that Member State has reached an intermediate or final objective, the Commission will assess whether the information on tonnage that has been supplied to it is nevertheless sufficient to assume that the Member State concerned has reached that objective. If the Commission concludes that this is the case, it shall consider that the conditions for granting modernisation and construction aid laid down in Article 10 of Regulation (EC) No 3699/93 have been fulfilled.
As long as a Member State has not fulfilled its global final obligations under MAGP III, and notably the obligation to achieve at least 55 % of the reduction objectives under MAGP III by capacity reductions, it shall be deemed not to have fulfilled its global intermediate and/or final obligations under MAGP IV.
In order to monitor and control the implementation of the programme, the Member States shall communicate all changes to the situation of the fishing fleet and the evolution of fishing effort by fishery according to the procedures laid down in Regulation (EC) No 109/94.
The annual communication from the Commission to the Council and to the European Parliament on the progress of the MAGP IV provided for in Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 3699/93, shall be based on the information contained in the fishing vessel register of the Community and may incorporate additional information contained in the reports communicated by the Member States in accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 3699/93.
The objectives of the programme are indicated in the Annex. These objectives may be revised by the Commission, pursuant to the procedure laid down in Article 18 of Regulation (EEC) No 3760/92, whenever information gathered in order to calculate the objectives, notably concerning the composition of the catches by segment or by fishery, the starting levels of effort and the GT values or estimates, is found to have been inaccurate.
This Decision is addressed to the Federal Republic of Germany.
It shall enter into force from 1 January 1997. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1383/2003 of 22 July 2003 concerning customs action against goods suspected of infringing certain intellectual property rights and the measures to be taken against goods found to have infringed such rights (1), and in particular Article 20 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EC) No 1383/2003 provides for action by the customs authorities in respect of goods suspected of infringing certain intellectual property rights.
(2) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1891/2004 (2) lays down provisions for the implementation of Regulation (EC) No 1383/2003, in particular as regards the application for action forms. Annexes I and II to that Regulation contain the models showing the required format of such application forms.
(3) Annexes I-C and II-C to Regulation (EC) No 1891/2004 contain the list of competent authorities to which applications for national and Community action respectively must be submitted. Article 8 of the Regulation provides that the Commission must publish the list of departments within the customs authority, as referred to in Article 5(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1383/2003, in the C series of the Official Journal of the European Union. As the lists in Annexes I-C and II-C contain information that is subject to change and needs to be regularly updated, it is more appropriate to publish them in the C series of the Official Journal of the European Union. Annexes I-C and II-C to Regulation (EC) No 1891/2004 should therefore be deleted.
(4) On 1 January 2007 Bulgaria and Romania acceded to the European Union. Regulation (EC) No 1891/2004 should therefore be adapted to include reference to these countries in the Community application for action form which it contains.
(5) The Community application for action form should have been adapted by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1792/2006 of 23 October 2006 adapting certain regulations and decisions in the fields of free movement of goods, freedom of movement of persons, competition policy, agriculture (veterinary and phytosanitary legislation), fisheries, transport policy, taxation, statistics, social policy and employment, environment, customs union and external relations by reason of the accession of Bulgaria and Romania (3), which entered into force on the date of the entry into force of the Treaty of Accession of these countries.
(6) In the interests of consistency, the Community application for action form should be adapted from the date of accession of Bulgaria and Romania.
(7) Regulation (EC) No 1891/2004 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(8) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee,
Regulation (EC) No 1891/2004 is hereby amended as follows:
1. In Annex I, in box 2 of the national application for action (AA) form, the words ‘(see Annex l-C for details)’ are deleted.
2. Annex I-C is deleted.
3. Annex II is replaced by the text in the Annex to this Regulation.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 907/2005
of 16 June 2005
fixing the export refunds on white sugar and raw sugar exported in its unaltered state
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 of 19 June 2001 on the common organisation of the markets in the sugar sector (1), and in particular the second subparagraph of Article 27(5) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 27 of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 provides that the difference between quotations or prices on the world market for the products listed in Article 1(1)(a) of that Regulation and prices for those products within the Community may be covered by an export refund.
(2) Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 provides that when refunds on white and raw sugar, undenatured and exported in its unaltered state, are being fixed account must be taken of the situation on the Community and world markets in sugar and in particular of the price and cost factors set out in Article 28 of that Regulation. The same Article provides that the economic aspect of the proposed exports should also be taken into account.
(3) The refund on raw sugar must be fixed in respect of the standard quality. The latter is defined in Annex I, point II, to Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001. Furthermore, this refund should be fixed in accordance with Article 28(4) of that Regulation. Candy sugar is defined in Commission Regulation (EC) No 2135/95 of 7 September 1995 laying down detailed rules of application for the grant of export refunds in the sugar sector (2). The refund thus calculated for sugar containing added flavouring or colouring matter must apply to their sucrose content and, accordingly, be fixed per 1 % of the said content.
(4) In special cases, the amount of the refund may be fixed by other legal instruments.
(5) The refund must be fixed every two weeks. It may be altered in the intervening period.
(6) The first subparagraph of Article 27(5) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 provides that refunds on the products referred to in Article 1 of that Regulation may vary according to destination, where the world market situation or the specific requirements of certain markets make this necessary.
(7) The significant and rapid increase in preferential imports of sugar from the western Balkan countries since the start of 2001 and in exports of sugar to those countries from the Community seems to be highly artificial.
(8) To prevent any abuse through the re-import into the Community of sugar products in receipt of an export refund, no refund should be set for all the countries of the western Balkans for the products covered by this Regulation.
(9) In view of the above and of the present situation on the market in sugar, and in particular of the quotations or prices for sugar within the Community and on the world market, refunds should be set at the appropriate amounts.
(10) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
The export refunds on the products listed in Article 1(1)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, undenatured and exported in the natural state, are hereby fixed to the amounts shown in the Annex hereto.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 17 June 2005.

Fishing quotas set out in the Annex shall not be subject to the conditions laid down in Articles 2, 3 and 5(2) of Council Regulation (EC) No 847/96.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

| COUNCIL DIRECTIVE of 25 February 1964 laying down detailed provisions concerning transitional measures in respect of activities in wholesale trade and activities of intermediaries in commerce, industry and small craft industries (64/222/EEC)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC COMMUNITY
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Articles 54 (2), 57, 63 (2) and 66 thereof;
Having regard to the General Programme for the abolition of restrictions on freedom of establishment, 1 and in particular the second and third paragraphs of Title V thereof;
Having regard to the General Programme for the abolition of restrictions on freedom to provide services, 2 and in particular the second and third paragraphs of Title VI thereof;
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission;
Having regard to the Opinion of the European Parliament 3;
Having regard to the Opinion of the Economic and Social Committee 4;
Whereas, besides making provision for the abolition of restrictions, the General Programmes provide that it should be examined whether such abolition should be preceded, accompanied or followed by mutual recognition of diplomas, certificates and other evidence of formal qualifications, and by the co-ordination of provisions laid down by law, regulation or administrative action concerning the taking up and pursuit of the activities in question, and whether, if need be, transitional measures should be adopted pending such recognition or co-ordination;
Whereas not all Member States impose conditions for the taking up and pursuit of activities in wholesale trade or activities of intermediaries in commerce, industry and small craft industries ; whereas in those Member States where such conditions are imposed, these consist of limited requirements, namely the possession of a certificate of professional competence, or equivalent diploma, issued in accordance with the relevant legislative provisions;
Whereas, in view of the limited scope of the regulations existing in certain Member States and the absence of any regulations whatsoever in others, it has not been possible to effect the co-ordination provided for at the same time as the abolition of discrimination ; whereas such co-ordination must be effected at a later date;
Whereas, in the absence of immediate co-ordination, it nevertheless appears desirable to make it easier to attain freedom of establishment and freedom to provide services in respect of the activities in question by the adoption of transitional measures of the kind envisaged in the General Programmes ; whereas this should be done primarily in order to avoid causing exceptional difficulties for nationals of Member States in which the taking up of such activities is not subject to any conditions;
Whereas, in order to prevent such difficulties arising, the main object of the transitional measures should be to allow, as sufficient qualification for taking up the activities in question in host States which have rules governing the taking up of such activities, the fact that the occupation has been pursued for a reasonable period of time in the country whence the person concerned comes and in the sufficiently recent past to ensure that such person possesses professional 1 OJ No 2, 15.1.1962, p. 36/62. 2 OJ No 2, 15.1.1962, p. 32/62. 3 OJ No 84, 4.6.1963, p. 1578/63. 4 OJ No 56, 4.4.1964, p. 862/64. knowledge equivalent to that required of the host country's own nationals;
Whereas, as regards States which do not make the taking up of the activities in question subject to any rules, in order to avoid a disproportionate influx into those States of persons who are unable to satisfy the conditions laid down in respect of the taking up and pursuit of such activities in the country whence they come, provision should be made for those States to be authorised, where appropriate and in respect of one or more activities, to require nationals of other Member States to furnish proof that they are qualified to pursue the activity in question in the country whence they come.
Whereas, however, considerable caution should be exercised in granting such authorisations, for, if too generally applied, they might hinder freedom of movement whereas they should therefore be limited, both as to their period of validity and as to their scope, and, as is generally provided in the Treaty in respect of the administration of protective measures, the granting of such authorisations should be entrusted to the Commission;
Whereas the main purpose of the measures provided for in this Directive will disappear once the co-ordination of conditions for the taking up and pursuit of the activities in question and the mutual recognition of diplomas, certificates and other formal evidence of qualifications has been achieved;
1. Member States, acting in accordance with the provisions hereinafter laid down, shall adopt the following transitional measures in respect of establishment or provision of services in their territories by natural persons or companies or firms covered by Title I of the General Programmes wishing to engage in activities in wholesale trade or as intermediaries in commerce, industry and small craft industries.
2. The activities in question are those covered by the Council Directive of 25 February 1964 concerning the attainment of freedom of establishment and freedom to provide services in respect of activities in wholesale trade and by the Council Directive of 25 February 1964 concerning the attainment of freedom of establishment and freedom to provide services in respect of activities of intermediaries in commerce, industry and small craft industries.
Where, in a Member State, the taking up or pursuit of any activity referred to in Article 1 (2) is dependent on the possession of general commercial or professional knowledge, that Member State shall accept as sufficient evidence of such knowledge the fact that the activity in question has been pursued in another Member State for a period of three consecutive years either in an independent capacity or in a managerial capacity, on condition that such activity shall not have ceased more than two years before the date when the application provided for in Article 4 (2) is made.
1. Where, in a Member State, the taking up or pursuit of any activity referred to in Article 1 (2) is not subject to the possession of general, commercial, or professional knowledge, and where that State faces serious and damaging consequences as a result of the application of the Council Directive referred to in Article 1 (2), that Member State may request from the Commission authorisation, for a limited period and in respect of one or more specified activities, to require from nationals of other Member States who wish to pursue those activities in its territory proof that they possess the qualifications required for the pursuit of such activities, either in an independent capacity or in a managerial capacity, in the country whence they come.
Use shall not be made of this power in respect of a person who comes from a country which does not make the taking up of the activity in question subject to proof of particular knowledge, or in respect of a person who has lived in the host country for at least five years.
2. On receipt of a request from the Member State concerned stating the reasons on which it is based, the Commission shall forthwith specify the conditions on which the authorisation provided for in paragraph 1 of this Article will be granted and lay down detailed rules concerning its implementation.
1. A person shall be regarded as having pursued an activity in a managerial capacity within the meaning of Articles 2 and 3 if he has pursued such activity in an industrial or commercial undertaking in the field in question: (a) as manager of an undertaking or manager of a branch of an undertaking ; or
(b) as deputy to the proprietor or to the manager of an undertaking, where such post involves responsibility equivalent to that of the proprietor or manager represented.
2. Proof that the conditions laid down in Article 2 or in Article 3 (1) are satisfied shall be established by certificates issued by the competent authority or body in the country whence the person concerned comes, which such person shall submit in support of his application for authorisation to pursue the activity or activities in question in the host country.
3. Member States shall, within the time limit laid down in Article 6, designate the authorities and bodies competent to issue these certificates and shall forthwith inform the other Member States and the Commission thereof.
The provisions of this Directive shall remain applicable until the entry into force of provisions relating to the co-ordination of national rules concerning the taking up and pursuit of the activities in question.
Member States shall adopt the measures necessary to comply with this Directive within six months of its notification and shall forthwith inform the Commission thereof.
Member States shall ensure that the texts of the main provisions of national law which they adopt in the field covered by this Directive are communicated to the Commission.
This Directive is addressed to the Member States. | 0 | 0 | 0.25 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0.25 | 0.25 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0.25 | 0 |

,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to the 1979 Act of Accession, and in particular paragraph 9 of Protocol 4 on cotton,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),
Whereas under Article 8 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2169/81 (2), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1982/82 (3), the percentage of aid paid by Member States, until such time as the quantity actually produced is determined, is laid down, taking into account crop estimates, before the beginning of each marketing year;
Whereas, for the purposes of correct implementation of the system of aid in the case of unginned cotton, the date on which that percentage is laid down should be very near the date on which the product is actually harvested;
Whereas the interval between 1 August, the date laid down in Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 2169/81 as the beginning of the marketing year, and the period during which the harvest actually takes place is too long ; whereas the beginning of the marketing year should therefore be postponed by one month,
The following paragraph shall be added to Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 2169/81:
"The 1983/84 marketing year shall, however, end on 31 August 1984. Thereafter, marketing years shall run from 1 September to 31 August."

Whereas, pursuant to Articles 1 and 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 3831/90, suspension of customs duties shall be accorded to each of the countries or territories listed in Annex III other than those listed in column 4 of Annex I within the framework of the preferential tariff ceilings fixed in column 6 of Annex I;
Whereas, as provided for in Article 7 of that Regulation, as soon as the individual ceilings in question are reached at Community level, the levying of customs duties on imports of the products in question originating in each of the countries and territories concerned may at any time be re-established;
Whereas, in the case of the products falling within CN code 3102 80 00, originating in Poland, the individual ceiling was fixed at ECU 1 352 000; whereas, on 21 March 1991, imports of these products into the Community originating in Poland reached the ceiling in question after being charged thereagainst; whereas, it is appropriate to re-establish the levying of customs duties in respect of the products in question against Poland,

Whereas:
(1) By Commission Decision 2009/12/EC (2), the use of six methods for grading pig carcasses in Denmark was authorised.
(2) Denmark has stated that the development of the automatic equipment, AutoFOM, in a version called ‘version III’ makes its use and calibration aimed at Danish slaughterhouses desirable. It is therefore necessary to obtain the formula for this new method.
(3) Denmark has requested the Commission to authorise that new method for grading pig carcasses on its territory and has presented a detailed description of the dissection trial, indicating the principles on which this method is based, the results of its dissection trial and the equation used for assessing the percentage of lean meat in the protocol provided for in Article 23(4) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1249/2008 of 10 December 2008 laying down detailed rules on the implementation of the Community scales for the classification of beef, pig and sheep carcasses and the reporting of prices thereof (3).
(4) Examination of that request has revealed that the conditions for authorising that grading method are fulfilled. That grading method should therefore be authorised in Denmark.
(5) Decision 2009/12/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(6) Modifications of the apparatus or grading methods should not be allowed, unless they are explicitly authorised by Commission Implementing Decision.
(7) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of the Agricultural Markets,
Decision 2009/12/EC is amended as follows:
(1) in Article 1, the following point (g) is added:

on opening a tariff quota for raw cane sugar for refining, originating in the least developed countries, for the marketing year 2001/02
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2820/98 of 21 December 1998 applying a multiannual scheme of generalised tariff preferences for the period 1 July 1999 to 31 December 2001(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 416/2001(2), and in particular Article 6(6) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 6(5) of Regulation (EC) No 2820/98 lays down that, until Common Customs Tariff duties are entirely suspended, a global tariff quota at zero duty is to be opened for every marketing year for products of tariff subheading 1701 11 10, originating in the least developed countries listed in Annex IV. The initial tariff quota for the marketing year 2001/02 is to be equal to 74185 tonnes, white sugar equivalent, for products of subheading 1701 11 10.
(2) Those provisions have to be implemented within the framework of the common trading system established by Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 of 19 June 2001 on the common organisation of the markets in the sugar sector(3).
(3) The quantities of raw sugar benefiting from the global tariff quota should be imported under conditions which meet the refining needs of the Member States referred to in Article 39(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001. They should be imported and refined under the fairest possible conditions of competition.
(4) The detailed rules governing the opening and management of the quota should be valid for only one marketing year. They should be reviewed at the end of that period, and rules for a longer period may subsequently be established in the light of the experience gained. The new rules should aim at ensuring that economic benefits arising from the existence of quotas ("quota rent" effect) will accrue to the beneficiary countries and in particular to their agricultural sector.
(5) The provisions concerning the proof of origin set out in Articles 67 to 97 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 of 2 July 1993 laying down provisions for the implementation of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 establishing the Community Customs Code(4), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 993/2001(5), establish the definition of the concept of originating products to be used for the purposes of generalised tariff preferences.
(6) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Generalised Preferences Committee,
This Regulation lays down the rules for opening and managing the tariff quota for raw cane sugar for refining referred to in Article 6(5) of Regulation (EC) No 2820/98, for the marketing year 2001/02.
A global tariff quota of 74185 tonnes of products of CN code 1701 11 10, expressed as white sugar equivalent, is opened for imports originating in the least developed countries listed in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 2820/98. The quota shall bear the order No 09.4650.
All common customs tariff duties, as well as any additional duties referred to in Article 24 of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, on imports under that quota are suspended.
The quota shall be open until 30 June 2002.
1. A minimum purchase price of EUR 49,68 per 100 kg of standard quality raw sugar (cif, free out of European ports of the Community) shall apply to imports under the quota referred to in Article 2.
2. Where the polarisation of the imported raw sugar deviates from 96 degrees, the minimum price shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, by 0,14 % for each one tenth of a degree of deviation.
1. Imports under the quota referred to in Article 2 shall require an import licence.
2. Import licences shall be issued by the Member States referred to in Article 39(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 for the refineries referred to in Article 7(4) of that Regulation.
3. Each Member State shall notify the Commission of applications submitted in the order in which they are recorded. Such notifications shall specify the applicants and the quantities applied for, as well as the quantities imported under licences already issued. A Member State may issue a licence if the Commission does not object within 3 days after notification.
4. Import licences may be transferred between licence holders. However, the obligations to import and refine are not transferable.
1. Import licences referred to in Article 4 shall be valid from the date on which they are issued until the end of the marketing year 2001/02.
2. Applications for licences shall be submitted by the refiner to the competent body of the Member State of import concerned and shall be accompanied by a declaration by which the refiner undertakes to refine the quantity of raw sugar in question in the marketing year 2001/02.
3. The security relating to the licences shall be EUR 0,30 per 100 kg net weight of sugar.
4. The refiner who applied for the licence must, within three months of the end of the time limit for refining, show to the Member State which issued the licence proof of refining acceptable to it.
5. Except in the event of force majeure and without prejudice to Article 6 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1464/95(6), if the sugar is not refined within the time limit, the refiner who applied for the licence shall pay an amount equal to the full duty applicable to raw sugar in the marketing year 2001/02 plus, where applicable, the highest additional rate of duty recorded during that marketing year.
6. Except in the event of force majeure, where it has not been possible for a quantity of sugar to be delivered in sufficient time to enable it to be refined by the end of the marketing year 2001/02, the Member State of importation may, at the request of the refiner, extend the validity of the licence for 30 days from the beginning of the following marketing year. In that case the raw sugar in question shall count against and be within the limits of the quota for the marketing year 2001/02.
7. Where it has not been possible to refine a quantity of sugar by the end of the marketing year 2001/02, the Member State in question may, at the request of the refiner, extend the time limit by a maximum of 90 days from the beginning of the following marketing year. In that case, the raw sugar in question shall be refined within that extended time limit and shall count against and be within the limits of the quota for the marketing year 2001/02.
8. Notwithstanding Article 50 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1291/2000(7), quantities imported benefiting from the positive tolerance provided for in Article 8(4) of that Regulation shall be deemed to have been delivered under the quota referred to in Article 2 of this Regulation provided they are covered by the certificate of origin referred to in Article 6(1).
9. Import licence applications and import licences shall include the following entry: "Raw sugar originating in ... (name of the country or countries referred to in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 2820/98) imported pursuant to Article 6(5) of Regulation (EC) No 2820/98."
1. Proof of the originating status of the imports under the quota referred to in Article 2 shall be furnished by a certificate of origin Form A issued in accordance with Articles 67 to 97 of Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93.
2. The certificate of origin Form A shall bear, in box 4:

3. The customs authorities of the importing Member State shall indicate on the certificate of origin Form A:
- the appropriate date, established on the basis of a shipping document, on which loading of the sugar in the port of export was completed,
- information relating to the import operation and the quantities actually imported.
4. The importing Member State shall forward to the Commission a copy of the certificate of origin Form A with the annotations referred to in paragraph 3, at the latest by the end of each month in respect of the preceding month.
Member States shall notify to the Commission:
(a) every week in respect of the preceding week, the quantity of raw sugar by weight for which import licences referred to in Article 4 have been issued;
(b) every month in respect of the preceding month:
- the quantity of raw sugar by weight actually imported with licences referred to in Article 4,
- the quantity of raw sugar in question by weight and in white sugar equivalent refined during the month preceding that in which the report is made.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply until 30 June 2002.

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3066/95 of 22 December 1995 establishing certain concessions in the form of Community tariff quotas for certain agricultural products and providing for the adjustment, as an autonomous and transitional measure, of certain agricultural concessions provided for in the Europe Agreements to take account of the Agreement on Agriculture concluded during the Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations (1), as last amended by Council Regulation (EC) No 2490/96 (2), and in particular Article 8 thereof,
Whereas Regulation (EC) No 3066/95 provides for the opening of reduced-tariff quotas for beef and veal for 1997; whereas the rules of application for those quotas should therefore be laid down;
Whereas in order to ensure orderly importation of the quantities laid down for 1997, they should be staggered over the year;
Whereas the arrangements should be managed using import licences; whereas to that end rules should be laid down on the submission of applications and the information to be given on applications and licences, where appropriate by way of derogation from Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3719/88 of 16 November 1988 laying down common detailed rules for application of the system of import and export licences and advance-fixing certificates for certain agricultural products (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2402/96 (4), and Commission Regulation (EC) No 1445/95 of 26 June 1995 on rules of application for import and export licences in the beef and veal sector and repealing Regulation (EEC) No 2377/80 (5), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2051/96 (6); whereas, moreover, it should be stipulated that licences are to be issued following a reflection period and, where necessary, after application of a uniform percentage reduction;
Whereas, in order to ensure efficient management of the arrangements, a security against import licences of ECU 12 per 100 kilograms should be required; whereas, given the risk of speculation inherent in the arrangements, detailed conditions for access to the quotas should be laid down;
Whereas experience has shown that importers do not always inform the authorities which have issued the import licences of the quantity and origin of the beef and veal imported under the quotas concerned; whereas that information is important for assessing the market situation; whereas a security relating to provision of that information should be provided for;
Whereas the Management Committee for Beef and Veal has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman,
1. From 1 January to 31 December 1997, the following quantities may be imported under the tariff quotas opened by Regulation (EC) No 3066/95:

2. For the meat referred to in paragraph 1 (a), the ad valorem and specific customs duties set in the Common Customs Tariff (CCT) shall be reduced by 80 %.
For the processed products referred to in paragraph 1 (b), the ad valorem customs duty shall be 13 %.

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90 of 26 June 1990 laying down a Community procedure for the establishment of maximum residue limits of veterinary medicinal products in foodstuffs of animal origin(1), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 2391/2000(2) and in particular Articles 6, 7 and 8 thereof;
Whereas:
(1) In accordance with Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90, maximum residue limits must be established progressively for all pharmacologically active substances which are used within the Community in veterinary medicinal products intended for administration to food-producing animals.
(2) Maximum residue limits should be established only after the examination within the Committee for Veterinary Medicinal Products of all the relevant information concerning the safety of residues of the substance concerned for the consumer of foodstuffs of animal origin and the impact of residues on the industrial processing of foodstuffs.
(3) In establishing maximum residue limits for residues of veterinary medicinal products in foodstuffs of animal origin, it is necessary to specify the animal species in which residues may be present, the levels which may be present in each of the relevant meat tissues obtained from the treated animal (target tissue) and the nature of the residue which is relevant for the monitoring of residues (marker residue).
(4) For the control of residues, as provided for in appropriate Community legislation, maximum residue limits should usually be established for the target tissues of liver or kidney. However, the liver and kidney are frequently removed from carcasses moving in international trade, and maximum residue limits should therefore also always be established for muscle or fat tissues.
(5) In the case of veterinary medicinal products intended for use in laying birds, lactating animals or honey bees, maximum residue limits must also be established for eggs, milk or honey.
(6) Prednisolone should be inserted into Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90.
(7) An adequate period should be allowed before the entry into force of this Regulation in order to allow Member States to make any adjustment which may be necessary to the authorisations to place the veterinary medicinal products concerned on the market which have been granted in accordance with Council Directive 81/851/EEC(3), as last amended by Directive 93/40/EEC(4) to take account of the provisions of this Regulation.
(8) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Veterinary Medicinal Products,
Annex I of Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90 is hereby amended as set out in the Annex hereto.

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 453/86 of 25 February 1986 fixing, for 1985/86, the intervention prices for olive oil in Spain and Portugal and the production aid applicable in Spain (1), results in an intervention price in Spain different from the Community price; whereas, in these circumstances, the appliation in Spain of the price reduction for olive-residue oil, as provided for in Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3472/85 of 10 December 1985 on the buying in and storage of olive oil by intervention agencies (2), would create market disturbance; whereas provision should therefore be made for a special price reduction, as a transitional measure for that Member State;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Oils and Fats,
The Annex to Regulation (EEC) No 3472/85 is hereby replaced from 1 March 1986 to 31 October 1986, by the Annex to this Regulation.

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 308 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament(1),
Whereas:
(1) The conditions to be fulfilled by applicant States wishing to join the European Union were set out at the European Council meeting in Copenhagen in June 1993.
(2) The Heads of State and Government meeting at the European Council in Helsinki from 10 to 11 December 1999 reaffirmed the inclusive nature of the accession process, which now comprises 13 candidate States within a single framework.
(3) The European Council in Helsinki stated that Turkey is a candidate State destined to join the Union on the basis of the same criteria applied to other candidate States and that building on the existing European strategy, Turkey, like other candidate States, will benefit from a pre-accession strategy to stimulate and support its reforms.
(4) The European Council in Helsinki stated that an Accession Partnership will be drawn up for Turkey on the basis of previous European Council conclusions while containing priorities on which accession preparations must concentrate in the light of the political and economic criteria and the obligations of a Member State.
(5) It would be appropriate for European Community assistance within the framework of the Accession Partnership to focus on the aforementioned political and economic criteria and be guided by defined principles, priorities, intermediate objectives and conditions.
(6) The Heads of State and Government meeting at the European Council in Feira from 19 to 20 June 2000 invited the Commission to present as soon as possible proposals for a single financial framework for assistance to Turkey, as well as for an Accession Partnership.
(7) The Partnership, and in particular its intermediate objectives, should assist Turkey in preparing for membership within a framework of economic and social convergence and in developing its national programme for the taking up of the acquis as well as a relevant timetable for its implementation.
(8) It is essential to manage the available financial resources carefully and in line with the priorities arising out of the Accession Partnership for Turkey and the Commission's regular reports.
(9) Community assistance under the pre-accession strategy should be provided by applying to Turkey the aid programmes adopted in accordance with the provisions of the Treaties and therefore this Regulation will have no financial implications.
(10) Community assistance is conditional upon respect of the commitments contained in the EC-Turkey Agreements, the Accession Partnership and upon progress towards fulfilment of the Copenhagen criteria.
(11) The programming of the financial resources making up Community assistance will be decided in accordance with the procedures set out in the Regulations relating to the corresponding financial instruments or programmes.
(12) The role played by the bodies set up under the EC-Turkey Agreements is central to ensuring the proper implementation and follow-up of this Accession Partnership.
(13) Establishing the Accession Partnership is likely to help achieve the Community's objectives. The Treaty does not provide, for the adoption of this Regulation, powers other than those of Article 308,
As part of the European Union's pre-accession strategy for Turkey, an Accession Partnership shall be established for Turkey. The Accession Partnership shall provide a single framework covering:
- the priorities, as defined in the analysis of the situation in Turkey, on which preparations for accession must concentrate in view of the political and economic criteria and the obligations incumbent upon a Member State of the European Union as defined by the European Council,
- the financial resources for assisting Turkey to implement the priorities identified during the pre-accession period.
Acting on a proposal from the Commission, the Council shall decide by qualified majority on the principles, priorities, intermediate objectives and conditions contained in the Accession Partnership, as it will be submitted to Turkey, as well as on subsequent significant adjustments applicable to it.
This Regulation shall have no financial implications. Under the pre-accession strategy, the Community assistance shall be the assistance provided for in the programmes adopted in accordance with the provisions of the Treaty.
On the basis of decisions taken by the Council pursuant to Article 2, the programming of the financial resources granted in the framework of the Accession Partnership shall be established in accordance with the procedures set out in the Regulations relating to the corresponding financial instruments or programmes.
Where an element that is essential for continuing to grant pre-accession assistance is lacking, in particular when the commitments contained in the EC-Turkey Agreements are not respected and/or progress towards fulfilment of the Copenhagen criteria is insufficient, the Council, acting by a qualified majority on a proposal from the Commission, may take appropriate steps with regard to pre-accession assistance granted to Turkey.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following that 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. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |

(2) By letter registered with the Secretariat-General of the Commission on 10 October 2003, the Greek Government requested the extension, until 31 December 2006, of Decision 2002/736/EC(2) authorising it to apply special tax measures to the recyclable waste sector.
(3) The other Member States were informed of Greece's request on 24 October 2003.
(4) Decision 2002/736/EC, authorised the Hellenic Republic to apply, until 31 December 2003, the following measures:
(a) to exempt intra-Community acquisitions and supplies of recyclable waste, such as scrap iron, waste of iron and steel, glass, paper and board, by taxable persons whose sales of such products in the previous year amounted to less than EUR 900000;
(b) to exempt intra-Community acquisitions and supplies of non-ferrous metal waste, regardless of the trader's gross turnover.
(5) Taxable persons whose transactions are covered by the above exemptions may, subject to the conditions laid down by Greece, be authorised not to apply the exemptions to their transactions.
(6) The derogating measure was needed because of the difficulty in dealing with fraud in this sector, where certain operators, mainly small dealers, did not comply with their obligations to pay to the authorities the tax they had charged for their supplies. Enforcing collection of the tax in this sector is especially difficult because of the complications of identifying and supervising the activities of non-compliant traders. Hence these arrangements constitute an effective fraud-prevention measure.
(7) On 7 June 2000 the Commission published a strategy to improve the operation of the VAT system in the short term, in which it undertook to rationalise the large number of derogations currently in force. In some cases, however, this rationalisation could involve extending certain particularly effective derogations to all Member States. The Commission's communication of 20 October 2003 reiterates this compromise.
(8) It therefore seems advisable to grant the Hellenic Republic an extension for the current derogation until the date of entry into force of a special scheme for the application of VAT to the recycled waste sector, but not later than 31 December 2005.
(9) The derogation has no adverse impact on the Communities' own resources accruing from VAT, nor does it have an effect on the amount of VAT charged at the final stage.
(10) In order to ensure the continuous application of Decision 2002/736/EC, provision should be made for this Decision to apply retroactively,
In Article 1 of Decision 2002/736/EC, the date "31 December 2003" shall be replaced by the following wording: "until the date of entry into force of a special scheme for the application of VAT to the recycled waste sector amending Directive 77/388/EEC, but not later than 31 December 2005".
This Decision shall apply from 1 January 2004.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2100/94 of 27 July 1994 on Community plant variety rights (1), and in particular Article 113 thereof,
After consulting the Administrative Council of the Community Plant Variety Office,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1238/95 of 31 May 1995 establishing implementing rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 2100/94 as regards the fees payable to the Community Plant Variety Office (2) sets out fees payable to the Community Plant Variety Office (the Office), and the levels of such fees.
(2) The financial reserve of the Office has reached a level which exceeds the level necessary to safeguard the continuity of its operations. For this reason, the level of the annual fee and the fees related to technical examinations were decreased during a transitional period.
(3) As regards the annual fee, the transitional period during which the level of this fee was decreased was already prolonged until the end of 2007. As regards the fees for technical examinations, the transitional period during which the level of these fees was decreased was prolonged until the end of 2006.
(4) It is however foreseen that despite the measures taken in order to decrease the financial reserve of the Office, the level of the reserve will not decrease to an appropriate level in the short term. The level of the annual fee should therefore be further decreased. Therefore, Regulation (EC) No 1238/95 should be amended accordingly.
(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Community Plant Variety Rights,
Article 9(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1238/95 is replaced by the following:
‘1. The office shall charge a holder of a Community plant variety right (hereinafter referred to as the holder) a fee for each year of the duration of a Community plant variety right (hereinafter referred to as annual fee) of EUR 300 for the years 2003 to 2005 and of EUR 200 for the year 2006 and the following years. Where a person paid a fee of EUR 300 for the year 2006, the office shall refund the difference of EUR 100 to that person.’
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 1 January 2006.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States. | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 |

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 404/93 of 13 February 1993 on the common organization of the market in bananas (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 3290/94 (2), and in particular Article 20 thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1442/93 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1164/95 (4), lays down detailed rules for the application of the arrangements for importing bananas into the Community; whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 478/95 (5), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 702/95 (6), lays down additional rules for the application of the tariff quota arrangements laid down in Articles 18 and 19 of Regulation (EEC) No 404/93;

on essential uses of controlled substances other than hydrochlorofluorocarbons for laboratory and analytical purposes in the Union under Regulation (EC) No 1005/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council on substances that deplete the ozone layer
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1005/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 September 2009 on substances that deplete the ozone layer (1), and in particular Article 10(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) The Union has already phased out the production and consumption of controlled substances for most uses. The Commission is required to determine essential laboratory and analytical uses for controlled substances other than hydrochlorofluorocarbons.
(2) Decision XXI/6 of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol consolidates existing decisions and extends the global laboratory and analytical use exemption beyond 31 December 2010 until 31 December 2014 for all controlled substances except for hydrochlorofluorocarbons, thus authorising the production and consumption necessary to satisfy essential laboratory and analytical uses of controlled substances, subject to the conditions established under the Montreal Protocol.
(3) Decision VI/25 of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol specifies that a use can only be considered as essential if there are no available technically and economically feasible alternatives or substitutes that are acceptable from the standpoint of environment and health. In its 2010 Progress Report, the Technical and Economical Assessment Panel (TEAP) has identified a significant number of procedures for which alternatives to the use of controlled substances are now available. Based on that information and Decision XXI/6, a list of those uses for which technically and economically feasible alternatives that are acceptable from the standpoint of environment and health are available should be established.
(4) A positive list of permitted essential uses of methyl bromide, as agreed by the Parties in Decision XVIII/15, as well as the uses which the TEAP has identified to be without alternatives should also be established.
(5) In addition, it should be clarified that the use of controlled substances for primary and secondary educational purposes cannot be considered essential and should be limited to higher education or vocational training. Furthermore, the use of controlled substances in experimental chemistry kits available to the general public should not be considered as essential.
(6) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 25(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1005/2009,
The production, import and use of controlled substances other than hydrochlorofluorocarbons may be permitted for any essential laboratory and analytical use specified in the Annex to this Regulation.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

determining the world market price for unginned cotton
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Protocol 4 on cotton, annexed to the Act of Accession of Greece, as last amended by Council Regulation (EC) No 1050/2001(1),
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001 of 22 May 2001 on production aid for cotton(2), and in particular Article 4 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) In accordance with Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001, a world market price for unginned cotton is to be determined periodically from the price for ginned cotton recorded on the world market and by reference to the historical relationship between the price recorded for ginned cotton and that calculated for unginned cotton. That historical relationship has been established in Article 2(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001 of 2 August 2001(3). Where the world market price cannot be determined in this way, it is to be based on the most recent price determined.
(2) In accordance with Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001, the world market price for unginned cotton is to be determined in respect of a product of specific characteristics and by reference to the most favourable offers and quotations on the world market among those considered representative of the real market trend. To that end, an average is to be calculated of offers and quotations recorded on one or more European exchanges for a product delivered cif to a port in the Community and coming from the various supplier countries considered the most representative in terms of international trade. However, there is provision for adjusting the criteria for determining the world market price for ginned cotton to reflect differences justified by the quality of the product delivered and the offers and quotations concerned. Those adjustments are specified in Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001.
(3) The application of the above criteria gives the world market price for unginned cotton determined hereinafter,
The world price for unginned cotton as referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001 is hereby determined as equalling EUR 19,621/100 kg.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 15 November 2001.

(3) The activities of the European Aviation Safety Agency may affect the level of civil aviation safety within the European Economic Area.
(4) Regulation (EC) No 216/2008 should therefore be incorporated into the Agreement in order to allow for the full participation of the EFTA States in the European Aviation Safety Agency.
(5) Since Regulation (EC) No 216/2008 repeals Regulation (EC) No 1592/2002 (3), which is incorporated into the Agreement, Regulation (EC) No 1592/2002 should consequently be repealed under the Agreement.
(6) Annex XIII to the Agreement should be amended accordingly.
(7) The Union should therefore take the position set out in the attached draft Decision within the EEA Joint Committee,
The position to be taken by the European Union in the EEA Joint Committee on the envisaged amendment to Annex XIII (Transport) to the Agreement shall be based on the draft Decision of the EEA Joint Committee attached to this Decision.

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 15 December 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 detector;
Whereas its objective technical characteristics, such as the detection field, and the use to which it is put make it specially suited to scientific research; whereas, moreover, apparatus of the same kind are principally used for scientific activities; whereas it must therefore be considered to be a scientific apparatus;
Whereas, however, on the basis of information received from Member States, apparatus of scientific value equivalent to the said apparatus, capable of being used for the same purposes, are currently being manufactured in the Community; whereas this applies, in particular, to the apparatus 'Series EGL' manufactured by Enertec Schlumberger, 1, rue Nieuport, F-78140 Velizy-Villacoublay, to the apparatus 'Series Si(Li)X' manufactured by Montedel Laben, via Bassini 15, I-Milano and to the apparatus 'Ge(Li)' manufactured by Harshaw Chemie BV, Strijkviertel 67, NL-3454ZG De Meern,
The apparatus described as 'Ortec - Ge(Li) Coaxial Detector, model 8511-20195-S', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 29 July 1982, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
