THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 37, in conjunction with the first sentence of Article 300(2) and the first subparagraph of Article 300(3) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
(1) Whereas the Community is competent to adopt measures for the conservation and management of fisheries resources and to enter into agreements with other countries or international organisations;
(2) Whereas the Community has signed the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, which requires all members of the international community to cooperate in conserving and managing the sea's biological resources;
(3) Whereas the Community has signed the Agreement on the implementation of the provisions of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea of 10 December 1982, relating to the Conservation and Management of Straddling Fish Stocks and Highly Migratory Fish Stocks;
(4) Whereas the 35th Intergovernmental meeting on the conservation of tunas and dolphins in the Eastern Pacific Ocean adopted in February 1998 the Agreement on the International Dolphin Conservation Programme;
(5) Whereas the objectives of the Agreement include the progressive reduction of incidental dolphin mortalities in the tuna purse-seine fishery in the Eastern Pacific Ocean to levels approaching zero, through the setting of annual limits and the long-term sustainability of the tuna stocks in the Agreement Area;
(6) Whereas Community fishermen fish tuna stocks in the Agreement Area and it is in the Community's interest to play an effective role in the implementation of the Agreement;
(7) Whereas the Council decided on 26 April 1999 that the Community should sign the Agreement on the International Dolphin Conservation Programme;
(8) Whereas under Article XIV of the Agreement, the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC) is to have an integral role in coordinating the implementation of the Agreement and many implementing measures will be adopted within the framework of the IATTC; whereas it is therefore necessary for the Community to accede to the IATTC as soon as possible;
(9) Whereas the Community has already started the procedure for accession to that organisation but such accession could be delayed for technical reasons; whereas it is therefore necessary to apply the Agreement on the International Dolphin Conversation Programme provisionally in order to protect the interests of Community vessels fishing in the region during the interim period;
(10) Whereas the signature and provisional application of the Agreement are the first stages with a view to the subsequent approval thereof by the Community in accordance with the procedures envisaged for this purpose by the Treaty,
In accordance with Article XXIX thereof, the Agreement on the International Dolphin Conservation Programme shall apply provisionally in the European Community with effect from 1 June 1999.
The President of the Council shall designate the person authorised to notify the provisional application of the Agreement by the Community to the Government of the United States of America as Depositary of the Agreement.

1. Export licences shall be valid from their date of issue within the meaning of Article 9 of Regulation (EEC) No 2131/93 until the end of the fourth month thereafter.
2. Tenders submitted in response to this invitation to tender need not be accompanied by export licence applications submitted pursuant to Article 49 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1291/2000 (5).

The intervention agency, the storer and the successful tenderer shall, at the request of the latter and by common agreement, either before or at the time of removal from storage as the tenderer chooses, take reference samples for counter-analysis at the rate of at least one sample for every 500 tonnes and shall analyse the samples. The intervention agency may be represented by a proxy, provided this is not the storer.
Reference samples for counter-analysis shall be taken and analysed within seven working days of the date of the successful tenderer's request or within three working days if the samples are taken on removal from storage.
In the event of a dispute, the analysis results shall be forwarded electronically to the Commission.
1. The successful tenderer must accept the lot as established if the final result of the sample analyses indicates a quality:
(a) higher than that specified in the notice of invitation to tender;
(b) higher than the minimum characteristics laid down for intervention but below the quality described in the notice of invitation to tender, providing that the differences having regard to those criteria do not exceed the following limits:
— one kilogram per hectolitre as regards specific weight, which must not, however, be less than 64 kg/hl,

In that case, the security shall not be released. The lot must be replaced within three days of the date of the successful tenderer's request. The successful tenderer shall immediately inform the Commission thereof using the form in Annex I.
If, following successive replacements, the successful tenderer has not received a replacement lot of the quality laid down within one month of the date of the request for a replacement, the successful tenderer shall be discharged of all obligations and the securities shall be released, provided the Commission and the intervention agency have been immediately informed using the form in Annex I.
1. If the barley is removed before the results of the analyses provided for in Article 6 are known, all risks shall be borne by the successful tenderer from the time the lot is removed, without prejudice to any means of redress the tenderer might have against the storer.

Council Regulation (EC) No 1447/2001
of 28 June 2001
amending Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 laying down general provisions on the Structural Funds
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Articles 161 and 299(2) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission(1),
Having regard to the assent of the European Parliament(2),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee(3),
Having regard to the opinion of the Committee of the Regions,
Whereas:
(1) Article 29(3)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999(4) provides for the possibility of awarding a contribution from the Funds of a maximum of 85 % of the total eligible cost only for the outermost regions of a Member State covered by the Cohesion Fund and for the outlying Greek islands which are under a handicap due to their distant location.
(2) Article 299(2) of the Treaty states that all the outermost regions face the same handicaps, particularly remoteness and insularity, which may severely restrain their development.
(3) Accordingly, Article 29(3)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 should be amended so as to fix the maximum contribution of the Funds at 85 % of the total eligible cost for all the outermost regions, whether of a Member State covered by the Cohesion Fund or not, where this does not involve investments in infrastructure projects generating substantial net revenue or investments in firms.
(4) Article 29(4)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 lays down that, in the case of investments in firms, the contribution of the Funds may not exceed 35 % of the total eligible cost in the regions covered by Objective 1.
(5) All the outermost regions are eligible for Objective 1 of the Structural Funds for the period 1 January 2000 to 31 December 2006 in accordance with Commission Decision 1999/502/EC of 1 July 1999 drawing up the list of regions covered by Objective 1 of the Structural Funds for the period 2000 to 2006.
(6) An increase in the maximum rate of assistance from the Structural Funds in the case of investment in small and medium-sized firms situated in the outermost regions would appear necessary in view of the difficulties encountered by these firms, in order to make a significant contribution to the development of those regions.
(7) Article 29(4)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 should therefore be amended so that, in the case of investments in small and medium-sized firms situated in the outermost regions, assistance from the Funds may amount to up to 50 % of the total eligible cost.
(8) Pursuant to Article 14 of Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999, each plan, Community support framework, operational programme and single programming document shall cover a period of seven years, and the programming period shall begin on 1 January 2000. In the interests of cohesiveness and to avoid discrimination between beneficiaries of the same programme, the derogations provided for in this Regulation must, exceptionally, be applicable to the whole programming period.
(9) Article 13 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2019/93 of 19 July 1993 introducing specific measures for the smaller Aegean islands concerning agricultural products(5) provides for structural derogations for these islands. This Article is repealed by Council Regulation (EC) No 1257/1999 of 17 May 1999 on support for rural development from the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund (EAGGF) and amending and repealing certain Regulations(6). The exceptional situation and geographical nature of the smaller Aegean islands constitutes an impediment to the adaptation and development of their rural areas, which can be offset by an increase in the Structural Funds' contribution,
Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 is hereby amended as follows:
1. Article 29(3)(a) shall be amended as follows: "(a) a maximum of 75 % of the total eligible cost and, as a general rule, at least 50 % of eligible public expenditure in the case of measures carried out in the regions covered by Objective 1. Where the regions are located in a Member State covered by the Cohesion Fund, the Community contribution may rise, in exceptional and duly justified cases, to a maximum of 80 % of the total eligible cost and to a maximum of 85 % of the total eligible cost for the outlying Greek islands which are under a handicap due to their distant location. The Community contribution for all the outermost regions may rise, in exceptional and duly justified cases, to a maximum of 85 % of the total eligible cost;"
2. The following point shall be added to the second subparagraph of Article 29(4)(b): "(ii) 50 % of the total eligible cost in the outermost regions and, exceptionally, also in the smaller Aegean islands in the case of investments in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1257/1999, in the case of investments in small and medium-sized firms;"
Points (ii) and (iii) shall become (iii) and (iv) respectively.
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 apply as from 1 January 2000.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 37 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (2),
Whereas:
(1) Titles I and II of Regulation (EEC) No 2075/92 (3) establish a premium as well as a production limitation system for tobacco production.
(2) Article 152 of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 (4), which has established common rules for direct support schemes under the common agricultural policy and certain support schemes for farmers, provides for the deletion of Titles I and II of Regulation (EEC) No 2075/92 as of 1 January 2005 but specifies that they shall continue to apply in respect of the 2005 harvest. The premium and production limitation schemes provided for in Regulation (EEC) No 2075/92 expire as from the end of the 2005 harvest.
(3) Consequently a number of Articles of Regulation (EEC) No 2075/92 become obsolete and should be deleted for reasons of legal clarity and transparency.
(4) It is therefore necessary to amend Regulation (EEC) No 2075/92 accordingly,
Regulation (EEC) No 2075/92 is hereby amended as follows:
1. Article 1 shall be replaced by the following:
2. Articles 2, 12, 19, 25, 26 and 27 and the Annex shall be deleted;
3. Article 13(2)(b) shall be replaced by the following:
‘(b) specific measures to help tobacco growers to switch to other crops or other economic activities that create employment and studies of the possibilities for tobacco growers to do so,’;
4. Article 14 shall be deleted;
5. Article 14a shall be replaced by the following:
6. Article 17 shall be replaced by the following:
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
(1), (2) and (6) shall apply from 1 January 2006.
However, the provisions necessary for the management and control of the premium system shall continue to apply in respect of the 2005 harvest.

Whereas Article 11 of the abovementioned Regulation provides that the levying of customs duties may be re-established at any time in respect of imports of the products in question once the relevant individual ceilings have been reached at Community level;
Whereas, in respect of products of category 35 (order No 40.0350), originating in China, the relevant ceiling amounts to 53 tonnes;
Whereas on 20 August 1993 imports of the products in question into the Community, originating in China, countries covered by preferential tariff arrangements, reached and were charged against that ceiling;
Whereas it is appropriate to re-establish the levying of customs duties for the products in question with regard to China,
As from 1 November 1993 the levying of customs duties, suspended pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 3832/90, shall be re-established in respect of the following products, imported into the Community and originating in China:

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
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 point (d) of the first paragraph of Article 61 in conjunction with Article 4 thereof,
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 951/2006 of 30 June 2006 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 as regards trade with third countries in the sugar sector (2), and in particular Article 7e in conjunction with Article 9(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) In accordance with point (d) of the first paragraph of Article 61 of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007, the sugar and isoglucose produced during a marketing year in excess of the quota referred to in Article 56 of that Regulation may be exported only within the quantitative limit to be fixed.
(2) Detailed implementing rules for out-of-quota exports, in particular concerning the issue of export licences, are laid down by Regulation (EC) No 951/2006.
(3) For the 2013/2014 marketing year it was initially estimated that fixing the quantitative limit at 650 000 tonnes, in white sugar equivalent, for out-of-quota sugar exports would correspond to the market demand. Such a limit was set by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 476/2013 (3). However, according to most recent estimates, the production of out-of-quota sugar is expected to reach 3 600 000 tonnes. Additional market outlets for out-of-quota sugar should therefore be ensured.
(4) Taking into account that the WTO ceiling for exports in the 2013/2014 marketing year has not been fully used, it is appropriate to increase the export quantitative limit of out-of-quota sugar by 700 000 tonnes, so as to provide additional business opportunities for the Union producers of sugar. In order that Union producers of out-of-quota sugar can exploit market opportunities on their export markets it is appropriate to make available the increased quantities as from 2 December 2013.
(5) Implementing Regulation (EU) No 476/2013 should be amended accordingly.
(6) To allow the lodging of applications for out-of-quota sugar export licences, the suspension of the lodging of applications provided for in Article 1(3) of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 968/2013 (4) should be abolished. As Implementing Regulation (EU) No 968/2013 has exhausted its effects, it is appropriate to repeal it.
(7) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets,
Article 1(1) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 476/2013 is replaced by the following:
‘1. For the 2013/2014 marketing year, the quantitative limit referred to in point (d) of the first paragraph of Article 61 of Regulation (EC) NO 1234/2007 shall be 1 350 000 tonnes for exports without refund of out-of-quota white sugar falling within CN code 1701 99.’
Implementing Regulation (EU) No 968/2013 is repealed.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 2 December 2013.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2273/93 of 28 July 1993 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 3129/94 (4), has had to be adapted to bring it into line with the provisions of the Act of Accession;
Whereas the number of intervention centres determined for Sweden has proved insufficient to ensure that the intervention arrangements function properly in that country; whereas the number of intervention centres should accordingly be increased; whereas the additional intervention centres in Sweden have been determined on the basis of their geographical location and their storage facilities, which must permit the stockpiling and disposal of substantial quantities of cereals;
Whereas, if intervention is to function effectively in Sweden as from the 1994/95 marketing year, the changes introduced pursuant to this Regulation should come into effect as quickly as possible; whereas this Regulation should accordingly apply as soon as is feasible;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1786/2006
of 4 December 2006
amending Annexes III B, IV, and VI to Council Regulation (EC) No 517/94 as regards textile quotas for 2007
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 517/94 of 7 March 1994 on common rules for imports of textile products from certain third countries not covered by bilateral agreements, protocols or other arrangements, or by other specific Community import rules (1), and in particular Article 5(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EC) No 517/94 establishes the annual quantitative limits for certain textile products originating in Montenegro, Kosovo (2) and North Korea.
(2) As from 1 January 2007, the European Union will include two new Member States, Romania and Bulgaria. Article 6(7) of the Act of Accession provides that the quantitative restrictions applied by the Community on imports of textile and clothing products are to be adjusted to take account of the accession of the new Member States to the Community. The quantitative restrictions applicable to imports of certain textile products from third countries into the enlarged Community should consequently be adjusted so as to cover imports into the two new Member States. This requires the amendment of certain Annexes to Regulation (EC) No 517/94.
(3) In order to prevent the enlargement of the Community from having restrictive effects on trade, it is appropriate, when amending the quantities, to use a methodology which takes into account, for the purpose of adjusting the new quota levels, the traditional imports into the new Member States. A formula consisting of the average of the last three years’ imports into the two new Member States originating in third countries provides an adequate measurement of those historical flows. Due to the fact that Montenegro became independent on 3 June 2006, the Commission has no separate figures of the trade flow between Montenegro and Kosovo, on one hand, and the new Member States on the other hand. Therefore, the new quota levels have been established using the most appropriate criterion for doing so, namely the population ratios of the two new Member States. A growth rate has been added in both cases.
(4) Annexes III B, IV and VI to Regulation (EC) No 517/94 should therefore be amended so as to list quota levels applicable for the year 2007.

Annexes III B, IV and VI to Regulation (EC) No 517/94 are replaced as shown in the Annex to this Regulation.

Whereas Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 414/97 should be amended and Annex II thereto should be replaced with a new Annex so as to take account of the amendment of the zones subject to health and trading restrictions as a result of the outbreak of new cases of classical swine fever in Brandenburg;

fixing the export refunds on syrups and certain other sugar products exported in the natural state
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 of 19 June 2001 on the common organisation of the markets in the sugar sector (1), and in particular the second subparagraph of Article 27(5) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 27 of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 provides that the difference between quotations or prices on the world market for the products listed in Article 1(1)(d) of that Regulation and prices for those products within the Community may be covered by an export refund.
(2) Article 3 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2135/95 of 7 September 1995 laying down detailed rules of application for the grant of export refunds in the sugar sector (2), provides that the export refund on 100 kilograms of the products listed in Article 1(1)(d) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 is equal to the basic amount multiplied by the sucrose content, including, where appropriate, other sugars expressed as sucrose; the sucrose content of the product in question is determined in accordance with Article 3 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2135/95.
(3) Article 30(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 provides that the basic amount of the refund on sorbose exported in the natural state must be equal to the basic amount of the refund less one hundredth of the production refund applicable, pursuant to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1265/2001 of 27 June 2001 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 as regards granting the production refund on certain sugar products used in the chemical industry (3), to the products listed in the Annex to the last mentioned Regulation.
(4) According to the terms of Article 30(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, the basic amount of the refund on the other products listed in Article 1(1)(d) of the said Regulation exported in the natural state must be equal to one-hundredth of an amount which takes account, on the one hand, of the difference between the intervention price for white sugar for the Community areas without deficit for the month for which the basic amount is fixed and quotations or prices for white sugar on the world market and, on the other, of the need to establish a balance between the use of Community basic products in the manufacture of processed goods for export to third countries and the use of third country products brought in under inward-processing arrangements.
(5) According to the terms of Article 30(4) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, the application of the basic amount may be limited to some of the products listed in Article 1(1)(d) of the said Regulation.
(6) Article 27 of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 makes provision for setting refunds for export in the natural state of products referred to in Article 1(1)(f) and (g) and (h) of that Regulation; the refund must be fixed per 100 kilograms of dry matter, taking account of the export refund for products falling within CN code 1702 30 91 and for products referred to in Article 1(1)(d) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 and of the economic aspects of the intended exports; in the case of the products referred to in the said Article (1)(f) and (g), the refund is to be granted only for products complying with the conditions in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 2135/95; for the products referred to in Article 1(1)(h), the refund shall be granted only for products complying with the conditions in Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 2135/95.
(7) The abovementioned refunds must be fixed every month; they may be altered in the intervening period.
(8) The first subparagraph of Article 27(5) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 provides that refunds on the products referred to in Article 1 of that Regulation may vary according to destination, where the world market situation or the specific requirements of certain markets make this necessary.
(9) The significant and rapid increase in preferential imports of sugar from the western Balkan countries since the start of 2001 and in exports of sugar to those countries from the Community seems to be highly artificial in nature.
(10) In order to prevent any abuses associated with the reimportation into the Community of sugar sector products that have qualified for export refunds, refunds for the products covered by this Regulation should not be fixed for all the countries of the western Balkans.
(11) In view of the above, refunds for the products in question should be fixed at the appropriate amounts.
(12) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
The export refunds on the products listed in Article 1(1)(d), (f), (g) and (h) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, exported in the natural state, shall be set out in the Annex hereto to this Regulation.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 29 July 2005.

Whereas it is necessary to make the results of basic surveys of areas under vines available quickly, particularly with a view to monitoring the application of restructuring measures in the wine sector,
By way of derogation from the first indent of Article 1 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 357/79:
- the French Republic is hereby authorized to carry out a basic survey in 1988 or before 1 April 1989 at the latest, relating to the situation after grubbing and planting in the 1987/88 wine growing year, and
- the Italian Republic is hereby authorized to carry out a basic survey in 1990 or before 1 April 1991 at the latest, relating to the situation after grubbing and planting in the 1989/90 wine growing year.
By way of derogation from Article 4 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 357/79, the Italian Republic shall notify the Commission of the results of the basic survey as soon as possible and before 1 April 1992 at the latest.
This Decision is addressed to the French Republic and the Italian Republic.

amending Regulation (EC) No 919/94 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EEC) No 404/93 as regards banana producers' organisations
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
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 organisation of the market in bananas(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2587/2001(2), and in particular Article 9 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 919/94(3), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 630/1999(4), lays down detailed rules for the application of Regulation (EC) No 404/93 as regards banana producers' organisations. It establishes in particular the conditions for the recognition of producer organisations and Annex I thereto establishes the minimum volume of marketable production of bananas and the minimum number of producers that the organisations must prove they have as members.
(2) In order to fulfil the economic tasks assigned to the producer organisations as regards production and marketing, to increase income from marketing and to improve the management of the sector, the creation of larger units must be encouraged and the thresholds relating to the number of members and marketable volumes must be increased. To this end, the application of the thresholds laid down for the French production regions should be extended to the Canary Islands. Raising the thresholds for the other production regions in Greece and Portugal is not an option, in view of the characteristics of the producer organisations.
(3) To facilitate the setting up of producer organisations adapted to the new thresholds, for 2002 the deadline by which the members of producer organisations established in Spain must notify any intention to resign should be extended.
(4) The aid provided for in Article 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 404/93 should not be granted to producer organisations comprising the members of former producer organisations that have benefited from this aid scheme.
(5) To allow the producer organisations to adapt to the new thresholds, the provisions of this Regulation should apply from 1 January 2003, with the exception of the provision on the notification of resignations to be given in 2002 which shall apply from the date of entry into force of this Regulation.
(6) Regulation (EC) No 919/94 should therefore be amended.

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 999/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2001 laying down rules for the prevention, control and eradication of certain transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (1), and in particular the first paragraph of Article 23 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EC) No 999/2001 lays down rules for the prevention, control and eradication of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) in animals. It provides that each Member State is to carry out an annual monitoring programme for TSEs based on active and passive surveillance.
(2) Article 6(1b) of Regulation (EC) No 999/2001 provides that Member States which can demonstrate the improvement of the epidemiological situation on their territory may apply for their annual monitoring programmes to be revised.
(3) Several Member States in which a positive trend in the epidemiological situation as regards bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) has been observed, have expressed interest in having their annual BSE monitoring programme revised. In order to allow those Member States to submit to the Commission a request to revise their BSE monitoring programmes, it is necessary to lay down the criteria for demonstrating an improvement in the BSE epidemiological situation.
(4) Those criteria are epidemiological indicators aiming to assess in a quantified manner the evolution of the BSE situation in Member States over the years.
(5) For the sake of clarity and consistency, those criteria should be laid down in Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 999/2001.
(6) Regulation (EC) No 999/2001 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(7) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,

Having regard to Directive 2002/22/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 March 2002 on universal service and users’ rights relating to electronic communications networks and services (Universal Service Directive) (2), and in particular Article 18(3) thereof,
Having consulted the Communications Committee,
Whereas:
(1) The Commission adopted Decision 2003/548/EC on 24 July 2003 on the minimum set of leased lines with harmonised characteristics and associated standards referred to in Article 18 of the Universal Service Directive (3). This minimum set included two types of analogue leased line and three types of digital leased line with speeds ranging up to 2 048 kbit/s.
(2) With the widespread migration to new network architectures, analogue types of leased line are no longer technically relevant. Demand for digital leased lines, which is increasingly for high-speed connections over and above 2 048 kbit/s, is being met by the market. Public consultation has revealed broad support from the Member States, industry associations and stakeholders to remove the five types of leased line from the current minimum set.
(3) Article 18(3) of the Universal Service Directive provides for the Commission to delete certain types of leased lines from the minimum set.
(4) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Communications Committee,
The list entitled ‘Identification of the minimum set of leased lines with harmonised characteristics and associated standards’ is hereby deleted from the Annex to Decision 2003/548/EC.

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72 of 18 May 1972 on the common organization of the market in fruit and vegetables (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1623/91 (2), and in particular Article 2 (3) thereof,
Whereas Council Regulation No 183/64/EEC (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1677/88 (4), lays down in Annex II/1 common quality standards for asparagus; whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 921/71 (5) amended these standards by adding an additional quality class; whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1764/90 (6) extends the applicability of this additional quality class to asparagus until 30 June 1991;
Whereas a change has occurred in the production and marketing of those products, particularly as regards the requirements of consumer and wholesale markets; whereas the common quality standards should therefore be changed to take those new requirements into account; whereas the present market situation does not require definition of the additional quality class;
Whereas the standards are applicable at all stages of marketing; whereas transportation over a long distance, storage for a certain length of time or the various handling operations to which the products are subject may bring about certain changes due to the biological development of those products or their tendency to perish; whereas, therefore, account should be taken of such changes when applying the standards at the stages of marketing following dispatch; whereas, in view of the fact that products in the 'Extra' class have to undergo particularly careful grading and packaging, only deterioration of the freshness and turgidity of those products should be taken into account;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fruit and Vegetables,
The quality standards for asparagus falling within CN code 0709 20 00 shall be as set out in the Annex hereto.
These standards shall apply at all marketing stages, under the conditions laid down in Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72.
However, at stages following dispatch, products may show, in relation to the standards prescribed:
- a slight deterioration in freshness and turgidity,
- for products of classes other than 'Extra' class, slight alterations due to their development and their tendency to perish.
Regulation No 183/64/EEC is hereby repealed.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 March 1992. This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Whereas establishments in third countries cannot be authorized to export fresh meat to the Community unless they satisfy the general and special conditions laid down in Directive 72/462/EEC;
Whereas on the basis of a precious inspection in Malta no establishments were judged satisfactory and Commission Decision 85/222/EEC (5), prohibited Member States, on a Community basis, from importing fresh meat from establishments in Malta, while still allowing those Member States whose national legislation so permitted not to interrupt existing trade flows with the establishments proposed by the Maltese authorities, for a period of seven months;
Whereas a further inspection carried out pursuant to Article 5 of Directive 72/462/EEC and Article 2 (1) of Commission Decision 86/474/EEC of 11 September 1986 on the implementation of the on-the-spot inspections to be carried out in respect of the importation of bovine animals and swine and fresh meat from non-member countries (6) has shown that the standard of hygiene in two establishments has been raised and can thus be regarded as satisfactory;
Whereas this same inspection has shown that the establishment for pigmeat visited complies with the conditions of Article 2 of Directive 77/96/EEC and therefore may be authorized to carry out the examination to detect the presence of trichinae in fresh pigmeat;
Whereas these establishments can, in these circumstances, be included in a list of establishments authorized to export to the Community and therefore Decision 85/222/EEC must be repealed;
Whereas import of fresh meat from the establishments appearing in the Annex remains subject to provisions laid down elsewhere and to the general provisions of the Treaty; whereas, in particular, import from third countries and dispatch to other Member States of certain categories of meat, such as meat containing residues of certain substances, are covered by harmonized Community rules, which are not yet fully implemented;

2. Imports from establishments listed in the Annex shall remain subject to the Community veterinary provisions laid down elsewhere.
Member States shall prohibit imports of fresh meat coming from establishments not appearing in the Annex.

Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 349/2013 of 17 April 2013 amending the rate of additional duty for products listed in Annex I to Council Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 establishing additional customs duties on imports of certain products originating in the United States of America

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 349/2013
of 17 April 2013
amending the rate of additional duty for products listed in Annex I to Council Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 establishing additional customs duties on imports of certain products originating in the United States of America
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 of 25 April 2005 establishing additional customs duties on imports of certain products originating in the United States of America (1), and in particular Article 3 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) As a result of the United States’ failure to bring the Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act (CDSOA) in compliance with its obligations under the WTO agreements, Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 imposed a 15 % ad valorem additional customs duty on imports of certain products originating in the United States as from 1 May 2005. In conformity with the WTO authorisation to suspend the application of concessions to the United States, the Commission is to adjust the level of suspension annually to the level of nullification or impairment caused by the CDSOA to the European Union at that time.
(2) The CDSOA disbursements for the most recent year for which data are available relate to the distribution of anti-dumping and countervailing duties collected during the Fiscal Year 2012 (1 October 2011 - 30 September 2012) as well as to the CDSOA additional 2012 distribution of anti-dumping and countervailing duties held during Fiscal Years 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. On the basis of the data published by the United States’ Customs and Border Protection, the level of nullification or impairment caused to the Union is calculated at USD 60 774 402.
(3) Since the level of nullification or impairment and consequently of suspension has increased, the last product of the list in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 should be added to the list set out in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 673/2005. However, the level of suspension cannot be adjusted to the level of nullification or impairment by adding or removing products from the list in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 673/2005. As a consequence, in accordance with Article 3(1)(e) of that Regulation, the Commission should amend the rate of the additional duty in order to adjust the level of suspension to the level of nullification or impairment. The four products listed in Annex I should therefore be maintained on the list and the rate of additional import duty should be amended and set at 26 %.
(4) The effect of a 26 % ad valorem additional import duty on imports from the United States of the products in Annex I represents, over one year, a value of trade that does not exceed USD 60 774 402.
(5) Article 6(1) and (2) of Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 contain specific exemptions from the additional import duty. Since the applicability of those exemptions is dependent on certain conditions being met before the entry into force or on the date of application of Regulation (EC) No 673/2005, the exemptions cannot in practice apply for imports of the new product added by this Regulation to the list in Annex I. Specific provisions should therefore be adopted to make these exemptions effective for imports of that product.
(6) To avoid circumvention of the additional duty, this Implementing Regulation should enter into force on the day of its publication.
(7) The measures provided for in this Implementing Regulation are in accordance with the opinion delivered by the Committee on Trade Retaliation,
Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 is replaced by Annex I to this Regulation.
Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 is replaced by Annex II to this Regulation.
An ad valorem duty of 26 % additional to the customs duty shall be imposed on the products originating in the United States of America listed in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 673/2005.
1. Products for which an import licence with an exemption from, or a reduction of duty, was issued before the date of entry into force of this Regulation shall not be subject to the additional duty provided they are classified under one of the following CN codes (2): 6204 62 31.
2. Products for which it can be demonstrated that they are already en route to the European Union or in temporary storage or in a free zone or free warehouse or under a suspensive procedure within the meaning of Article 84(1)(a) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 of 12 October 1992 establishing the Community Customs Code (3) on the date of application of this Regulation, and whose destination cannot be changed, shall not be subject to the additional duty provided they are classified under one of the following CN codes: 6204 62 31.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 1 May 2013.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 508/97 of 20 March 1997 opening distillation as referred to in Article 41 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 for the 1996/97 wine year
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 of 16 March 1987 on the common organization of the market in wine (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1592/96 (2), and in particular Articles 41 (2) and 41 (10) and Article 83 thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2721/88 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2181/91 (4), lays down detailed rules for voluntary distillation as provided for in Articles 38, 41 and 42 of Regulation (EEC) No 822/87; whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 1650/96 (5) fixes the prices and the aid as also certain other elements applicable to distillation as referred to in Article 41 of Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 for the 1996/97 wine year;
Whereas the situation on the market in wine in the 1996/97 wine year does not justify the opening of compulsory distillation; whereas, however, on the market in certain categories of product problems of imbalance exist which cannot be overcome by a single preventive distillation measure; whereas these problems should be solved by applying an appropriate measure; whereas such a measure could take the form of a specific type of distillation; whereas, for reasons of efficiency, this type of intervention should be restricted solely to white wines whose prices fell considerably and, in the case of France, in addition, to certain regions experiencing market difficulties; whereas an overall volume should be fixed for Community production regions likely to benefit from the distillation in question and that volume should be broken down by region;
Whereas, in the circumstances, the measure in question should apply only to those producers who have already made an effort by entering into contracts for the purposes of preventive distillation as provided for in Article 1 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2177/96 (6);
Whereas, if the overall volume applied for exceeds the quantities contemplated, provision should be made for a correction mechanism to be applied by Member States in respect of all the contracts submitted;
Whereas, for the purposes of sound management of the volumes in question, it is necessary to derogate from certain specific provisions of Regulation (EEC) No 2721/88;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Wine,
1. The distillation of table wines referred to in Article 41 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 shall be opened for the 1996/97 wine year. Such distillation, to be opened for all white table wines obtained from the production regions referred to in Article 4 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 441/88 (7), shall be limited to 555 000 hl.
2. This quantity shall be broken down by the production regions referred to above as follows:
>TABLE>
For region 3, France, distillation shall be reserved for white table wines produced in the demarcated region of Cognac, the geographical area of the controlled designation of origin Armagnac and the vineyards of Val de Loire.
3. For the purposes of Article 41 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 822/87, every producer of the aforementioned wines who has signed contracts under preventive distillation as referred to in Article 38 of Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 for the 1996/97 wine year, opened under Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 2177/96 may, until 25 April 1997 at the latest, sign a distillation contract or declaration with the competent authorities of the Member States.
4. The distillation contract or declaration shall be accompanied by a copy of the preventive distillation contract or declaration approved by the competent authorities for the 1996/97 wine year.
5. Member States may limit the number of contracts a producer may enter into for the distillation operation in question.
6. Member States shall determine the reduction rate to be applied to contracts and declarations if the overall volume of contracts or declarations exceeds that pre-established per region. They shall take the administrative steps required to approve, by 23 May 1997 at the latest, the aforementioned contracts or declarations, with an indication of the reduction rate applied and the volume of wine agreed per contract or declaration. Member States shall notify the quantities of those wines, under contract, before 30 May 1997.
7. The quantities agreed per contract or declaration must be delivered for distillation not later than 15 July 1997.
Regulation (EEC) No 2721/88 shall apply with the exception of Articles 3 and 6 (1) and 6 (4).
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

of 26 May 1999
amending Annex III to Council Directive 77/93/EEC on protective measures against the introduction into the Community of organisms harmful to plants or plant products and against their spread within the Community
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 77/93/EEC of 21 December 1976 on protective measures against the introduction into the Community of organisms harmful to plants or plant products and against their spread within the Community(1), as last amended by Commission Directive 98/2/EC(2), and in particular Article 13, second paragraph, third indent, thereof,
(1) Whereas by Commission Directive 92/76/EEC(3), as last amended by Directive 98/100/EC(4), Greece and France (Corsica) were provisionally recognised as protected zones against unknown non-European harmful organisms on fruits of Citrus L., Fortunella Swingle, Poncirus Raf., and their hybrids; whereas Italy was also provisionally recognised as a protected zone against unknown non-European harmful organisms on fruits of Citrus L., Fortunella Swingle, Poncirus Raf., and their hybrids, except Citrus paradisi Macf.; whereas Commission Directive 95/40/EC(5) extended this provisional recognition only until 1 April 1996; whereas the provisions in Directive 77/93/EEC relating to the said protected zones are therefore obsolete and should be repealed for the sake of legal clarity;

COMMISSION DECISION
of 11 February 2011
authorising a method for grading pig carcasses in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg
(notified under document C(2011) 750)
(Only the French text is authentic)
(2011/95/EU)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
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 43, point (m), in conjunction with Article 4 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Point B.IV, paragraph 1, of Annex V to Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 provides that, for the classification of pig carcasses, the lean-meat content has to be assessed by means grading methods authorised by the Commission, which methods may only be statistically proven assessment methods based on the physical measurement of one or more anatomical parts of the pig carcass. The authorisation of grading methods is subject to compliance with a maximum tolerance for statistical error in assessment. This tolerance is defined in Article 23(3) 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 (2).
(2) The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is of the opinion that the update of the national formula is absolutely necessary in order to take into account the breeding progress during the past 20 years. The last update of the lean meat equation of the grading instrument (HGP-2) dates back to 1989 and was authorised by Commission Decision 89/51/EEC (3).
(3) The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg has therefore asked the Commission to authorise one 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 Regulation (EC) No 1249/2008.
(4) Examination of this request has revealed that the conditions for authorising this grading method are fulfilled. This grading method should therefore be authorised in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.
(5) No modification of the apparatus or grading method may be authorised except by means of a new Commission Decision adopted in the light of experience gained. For this reason, the present authorisation may be revoked.
(6) Decision 89/51/EEC should therefore be repealed. However, in view of technical circumstances while introducing new devices and new equation the method for grading pig carcasses authorised under Decision 89/51/EEC should continue to apply up to 28 February 2011.
(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,
The use of the following method is hereby authorised for grading pig carcasses pursuant to point B.IV, paragraph 1, of Annex V to Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg: the apparatus termed ‘Hennessy Grading Probe (HGP 4)’ and the assessment method related thereto, details of which are given in the Annex.
Modifications of the apparatus or the assessment method shall not be authorised.
Decision 89/51/EEC is repealed.
However, up to 28 February 2011, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg may continue to apply the method for grading pig carcasses authorised under Decision 89/51/EEC.
This Decision is addressed to the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 70/156/EEC of 6 February 1970 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the type-approval of motor vehicles and their trailers (1), as last amended by Directive 96/27/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (2), and in particular Article 8 (2) (c) thereof,
Whereas the request submitted by Luxembourg on 1 April 1996, which reached the Commission on 10 April 1996, contains the information required by Article 8 (2) (c); whereas the request concerns the fitting of one type of vehicle with two types of third stop lamp falling within category ECE S3 by virtue of ECE (United Nations Economic Commission for Europe) Regulation No 7 and fitted in accordance with ECE Regulation No 48;
Whereas the reasons given in the request, according to which the fitting of the stop lamps and the stop lamps themselves do not meet the requirements of Council Directive 76/758/EEC of 27 July 1976 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to end-outline marker lamps, front position (side) lamps, rear position (side) lamps and stop lamps for motor vehicles and their trailers (3), as last amended by Commission Directive 89/516/EEC (4), or of Council Directive 76/756/EEC of 27 July 1976 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the installation of lighting and light-signalling devices on motor vehicles and their trailers (5), as last amended by Commission Directive 91/663/EEC (6) are well founded; whereas the descriptions of the tests, the results thereof and their compliance with ECE Regulations No 7 and No 48 ensure a satisfactory level of safety;
Whereas the Community Directives concerned will be amended in order to permit the production and fitting of such stop lamps;
Whereas the measure provided for in this Decision is in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on adaptation to technical progress set up by Directive 70/156/EEC,
The request submitted by Luxembourg for an exemption concerning the production and fitting of two types of third stop lamp falling within category ECE S3 by virtue of ECE Regulation No 7 and fitted in accordance with ECE Regulation No 48 is hereby approved.
This Decision is addressed to Luxembourg.

COMMISSION DECISION
of 18 May 2004
accepting undertakings offered in connection with the anti-dumping proceeding concerning imports of silicon carbide originating, inter alia, in Ukraine
(2004/498/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 384/96 of 22 December 1995 on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Community (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 461/2004 (2) (the ‘basic Regulation’), and in particular Articles 8, 11(3), 21 and 22(c) thereof,
After consulting the Advisory Committee,
Whereas:
A. PROCEDURE
1. Measures in force
(1) Pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1100/2000 (3) the Council imposed a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports into the Community of silicon carbide (the ‘product concerned’) originating in Ukraine. Pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 991/2004 (4) the Council amended Regulation (EC) No 1100/2000.
(2) The rate of the duty applicable to the net, free-at-Community-frontier price, before duty, is set at 24 % for imports of the product concerned originating in Ukraine.
2. Investigation
(3) On 20 March 2004 the Commission announced through the publication of a notice in the Official Journal of the European Union
(5) the initiation of a partial interim review of the measures in force (‘the measures’) pursuant to Articles 11(3) and 22(c) of the basic Regulation.
(4) The review was launched at the initiative of the Commission in order to examine whether, as a consequence of the enlargement of the European Union on 1 May 2004 (‘enlargement’) and, bearing in mind the aspect of Community interest, there is a need to adapt the measures in order to avoid a sudden and excessively negative effect on all interested parties including users, distributors and consumers.
(5) All interested parties, including the Community industry, associations of producers or users in the Community, exporters/producers in the countries concerned, importers and their associations and the relevant authorities of the countries concerned as well as interested parties in the 10 new Member States which acceded to the European Union on 1 May 2004 (the ‘EU10’) were advised of the initiation of the investigation and were given the opportunity to make their views known in writing, to submit information and to provide supporting evidence within the time-limit set out in the notice of initiation. All interested parties who so requested and showed that there were reasons why they should be heard were granted a hearing.
3. Result of investigation
(6) As set out in Regulation (EC) No 991/2004, the investigation concluded that it is in the Community interest to adapt the existing measures, provided that such adaptation does not significantly undermine the desired level of trade defence.
4. Undertaking
(7) In accordance with the conclusions of Regulation (EC) No 991/2004, the Commission, in conformity with Article 8(2) of the basic Regulation, suggested undertakings to the company concerned. As a result, undertakings were subsequently offered by one exporting producer of the product concerned in Ukraine (Open Joint Stock Company Zaporozhsky Abrasivny Combinat).
(8) It should be noted that, in application of Article 22(c) of the basic Regulation, these undertakings are considered as special measures since, in accordance with the conclusions of Regulation (EC) No 991/2004, they are not directly equivalent to an anti-dumping duty.
(9) Nevertheless, in conformity with Regulation (EC) No 991/2004, the undertakings oblige producing exporter to respect the import ceilings and, in order that the undertakings can be monitored, the exporting producer concerned has also agreed broadly to respect their traditional selling patterns to individual customers in the EU10. The exporting producer is also aware that if it is found that these sales patterns change significantly, or that the undertakings become in any way difficult or impossible to monitor, the Commission is entitled to withdraw acceptance of the company’s undertakings resulting in definitive anti-dumping duties being imposed in their place, or it may adjust the level of the ceiling, or it may take other remedial action.
(10) It is also a condition of the undertakings that if they are breached in any way, the Commission will be entitled to withdraw acceptance thereof resulting in definitive anti-dumping duties being imposed in their place.
(11) The company will also provide the Commission with regular and detailed information concerning their exports to the Community, meaning that the undertakings can be monitored effectively by the Commission.
(12) In order that the Commission can monitor effectively the companies’ compliance with the undertakings, when the request for release for free circulation pursuant to an undertaking is presented to the relevant customs authority, exemption from the duty will be conditional upon the presentation of an invoice containing at least the items of information listed in the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 991/2004. This level of information is also necessary to enable customs authorities to ascertain with sufficient precision that the shipment corresponds to the commercial documents. Where no such invoice is presented, or when it does not correspond to the product presented to customs, the appropriate anti-dumping duty will instead be payable.
(13) In view of all the above, the offer of undertakings is considered acceptable.
(14) The acceptance of the undertakings is limited to an initial period of six months without prejudice to the normal duration of the measures and it shall lapse after this period, unless the Commission considers it is appropriate to extend period of application of special measure for next six months,
The undertakings offered by the exporting producer mentioned below, in connection with the anti-dumping proceeding concerning imports of silicon carbide originating in Ukraine is hereby accepted.

|
Commission Regulation (EC) No 23/2004
of 8 January 2004
fixing the representative prices and the additional import duties for molasses in the sugar sector
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 of 19 June 2001 on the common organisation of the market in sugar(1), as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 2196/2003(2),
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1422/95 of 23 June 1995 laying down detailed rules of application for imports of molasses in the sugar sector and amending Regulation (EEC) No 785/68(3), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 79/2003(4), and in particular Article 1(2) and Article 3(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EC) No 1422/95 stipulates that the cif import price for molasses, hereinafter referred to as the "representative price", should be set in accordance with Commission Regulation (EEC) No 785/68(5). That price should be fixed for the standard quality defined in Article 1 of the above Regulation.
(2) The representative price for molasses is calculated at the frontier crossing point into the Community, in this case Amsterdam; that price must be based on the most favourable purchasing opportunities on the world market established on the basis of the quotations or prices on that market adjusted for any deviations from the standard quality. The standard quality for molasses is defined in Regulation (EEC) No 785/68.
(3) When the most favourable purchasing opportunities on the world market are being established, account must be taken of all available information on offers on the world market, on the prices recorded on important third-country markets and on sales concluded in international trade of which the Commission is aware, either directly or through the Member States. Under Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 785/68, the Commission may for this purpose take an average of several prices as a basis, provided that this average is representative of actual market trends.
(4) The information must be disregarded if the goods concerned are not of sound and fair marketable quality or if the price quoted in the offer relates only to a small quantity that is not representative of the market. Offer prices which can be regarded as not representative of actual market trends must also be disregarded.
(5) If information on molasses of the standard quality is to be comparable, prices must, depending on the quality of the molasses offered, be increased or reduced in the light of the results achieved by applying Article 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 785/68.
(6) A representative price may be left unchanged by way of exception for a limited period if the offer price which served as a basis for the previous calculation of the representative price is not available to the Commission and if the offer prices which are available and which appear not to be sufficiently representative of actual market trends would entail sudden and considerable changes in the representative price.
(7) Where there is a difference between the trigger price for the product in question and the representative price, additional import duties should be fixed under the conditions set out in Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 1422/95. Should the import duties be suspended pursuant to Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1422/95, specific amounts for these duties should be fixed.
(8) Application of these provisions will have the effect of fixing the representative prices and the additional import duties for the products in question as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
(9) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
The representative prices and the additional duties applying to imports of the products referred to in Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 1422/95 are fixed in the Annex hereto.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 9 January 2004.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

(3) The European Parliament in its resolution of September 1998 on the 1997 Annual Report of the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction on the state of the drugs problem in the EU indicated that it regards it as essential that the Observatory should make a start on incorporating the applicant countries from central and eastern Europe and Cyprus into the Reitox network and taking account of data from those countries in its reports and analyses.
(4) There is the need to progressively organise the participation of the applicant countries in the Observatory activities and the Reitox core tasks.
(5) The PHARE Multi-Beneficiary Drugs Programme aims, in particular, at providing assistance to the central and eastern European countries for the development and strengthening of information systems and networks for collecting, processing and distributing data concerning drugs and drug addiction in these countries.
(6) It is desirable directly to entrust the Observatory with the implementation of structural technical assistance projects in the field of information systems for the applicant countries of the central and eastern European countries and other applicant countries with a view to involving them with the activities of the Observatory and establishing structural links with the Reitox network.
(7) It is necessary for the Observatory to cover in its approach all PHARE countries which are part of the PHARE Multi-Beneficiary Drugs Programme, including therefore Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina and the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia.
(8) The structural assistance projects to be implemented by the Observatory in applicant countries and countries eligible for the PHARE programme include in particular activities related to coordination and exchange of information, transfer of know how, creation and reinforcement of structural links with the Reitox network and setting up and consolidation of national focal points,

of 31 January 2014
specifying a procedure for the amendment of Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2012 concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products (1), and in particular Article 28(5) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Categories 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 of Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 are well defined so as to allow certain presumptions as regards the properties of the substances falling therein. The inclusion in category 6 of that Annex requires the submission of a data package allowing a full risk assessment for the intended use. The procedure for amending one of those categories upon request in order to include therein active substances, or modifying the restrictions therein, should be transparent and equal for all applicants. It is therefore appropriate to further specify it.
(2) The data required for inclusion of an active substance in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 should be sufficient to evidence that the substance does not give rise to concern within the meaning of Article 28(2) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.
(3) In order to be consistent, the procedure for submission and validation of an application for inclusion of an active substance in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 should be identical to that for submission and validation of an application for approval of an active substance. However, where the former may require less data to be submitted, the evaluation procedure should be adapted accordingly.
(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products referred to in Article 82(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012,
Subject matter
This Regulation lays down the procedures to be followed for the purpose of amending, at the request of an applicant, Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 in order to:
(a) include active substances in category 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 of that Annex in accordance with Article 28(1) of that Regulation; or
(b) make amendments of the relevant restrictions in those categories.
Data requirements for an application
An application for an inclusion or an amendment referred to in Article 1 shall include the information specified in the Annex to this Regulation.
Submission and validation of applications
1. The procedure laid down in Article 7(1) and (2), the third subparagraph of Article 7(3), and Article 7(6) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 shall apply for the submission of applications for inclusions or amendments referred to in Article 1 of this Regulation.
2. Where the application concerns category 6 of Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, the first and second subparagraphs of Article 7(3) and Article 7(4) and (5) of that Regulation shall apply for the validation of the application.
Evaluation of applications
1. The evaluating competent authority shall evaluate whether there is evidence that the substance does not give rise to concern in accordance with Article 28(2) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 and, where relevant, to which restrictions its use should be subject. It shall send an assessment report and the conclusions of its evaluation to the European Chemicals Agency set up under Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) (‘the Agency’). Where the application concerns inclusion in category 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 of Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, the assessment report and the conclusions shall be submitted within 180 days of the payment of the fees referred to in the third subparagraph of Article 7(3) of that Regulation. Where the application concerns inclusion in category 6 of Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, the assessment report and the conclusions shall be submitted within 365 days of validation of that application.
Prior to submitting its conclusions to the Agency, the evaluating competent authority shall give the applicant the opportunity to provide written comments on the assessment report and on the conclusions of the evaluation within 30 days. The evaluating competent authority shall take due account of those comments when finalising its evaluation.
2. Where it appears that additional information is necessary to carry out the evaluation, the evaluating competent authority shall request that the applicant submit such information within a specified time limit, and shall inform the Agency accordingly. The periods referred to in paragraph 1 of this Article shall be suspended from the date of issue of that request until the date the information is received. The suspension shall not exceed 180 days in total unless it is justified by the nature of the data requested or by exceptional circumstances.
3. An application concerning inclusion of an active substance in category 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 of Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, which, following a request for additional data pursuant to paragraph 2, complies fully with Article 6 of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 shall, where the applicant so requests,
(a) be considered as an application for inclusion in category 6 of Annex I to that Regulation; and
(b) be subject to validation pursuant to Article 3(2).
4. The Agency shall, having regard to the conclusions of the evaluating competent authority, prepare and submit to the Commission the opinion referred to in Article 28 of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 within 270 days of receipt of the conclusions of the evaluation in the case of an application for inclusion in category 6 of Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, and within 180 days of that receipt in the case of an application for inclusion in category 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 of Annex I to that Regulation.
Agency opinions eligible to form the basis for a Commission decision
Provided that there is evidence that an active substance does not give rise to concern within the meaning of Article 28(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, the Commission may adopt a decision pursuant to that Article amending Annex I to that Regulation in the sense referred to in Article 1 of this Regulation where the Agency has submitted an opinion pursuant to:
(a) Article 4(4) of this Regulation;
(b) Article 8(4) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012; or
(c) one of the acts provided for by Article 89(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

Whereas Article 11 (3) of Regulation No 136/66/EEC provides that a percentage of the consumption aid shall be allocated to publicity campaigns and, possibly, to other projects for the promotion of the consumption of olive oil in the Community;
Whereas the market situation for olive oil in the Community is characterized by a drop in consumption which may eventually lead to a structural imbalance between supply and demand ; whereas in order to prevent such an imbalance developing, the existing system of consumption aid now needs to be supplemented by the implementation of a consumer information programme and other campaigns to promote olive oil in the Community,
Under the campaigns referred to in Article 11 (3) of Regulation No 136/66/EEC, the following measures may be taken: (a) dissemination of existing knowledge, in particular as regards the various qualities of olive oil;
(b) market studies aimed at enlarging the olive oil market in the Community;
(c) advertising and promotion campaigns to encourage the consumption of olive oil, in particular with a view to emphasizing the qualitative value, and of products in the preparation of which olive oil is involved, such campaigns to be carried out in the regions of the Community where they are likely to be most effective;
(d) research work, in particular work having as its object a scientific examination of the nutritional aspects of olive oil;
(e) special reduced-price sales to certain classes of consumers, in order to promote their interest in the consumption of olive oil.
The Commission shall communicate to the Council every year by 31 October at the latest the programme of measures which it anticipates undertaking in the course of the following marketing year. With a view to drawing up such a programme, the Commission may consult inter alia bodies specializing in market and advertising studies as well as research institutes.
The measures set out under Article 1 (a) to (d) shall be decided on by the Commission after consulting the Member States.
The measures referred to in Article 1 (e) shall be decided on in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 38 of Regulation No 136/66/EEC.
Detailed rules governing the implementation of this Regulation shall be laid down in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 38 of Regulation No 136/66/EEC.

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in pigmeat (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1423/78 (2), and in particular Article 22 thereof,
Whereas Article 22 of Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 provides that the Member States and the Commission shall communicate to each other the information necessary for implementing that Regulation ; whereas it is necessary, if the information required to operate the organized market is to be available on a standard basis and in due time, to define in detail the obligations of the Member States as regards the communication of information;
Whereas the application of the intervention measures provided for in Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 requires precise knowledge of the market ; whereas, in order to achieve the highest degree of comparability, the prices for slaughtered pigs to be taken into account should be those for all important grades on the Community scale for grading pig carcases as set out in Council Regulation (EEC) No 2760/75 (3) at the marketing stage as defined in Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1229/72 (4) and on the markets listed in the Annex to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2762/75 (5) ; whereas, in particular, for the purposes of the regular review referred to in Article 3 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2765/75 (6) and in order that intervention measures may be prepared in sufficient time, such information must be available regarding piglet prices as will enable future changes in the market to be assessed ; whereas, however, Italy is at present not in a position to provide all the information required;
Whereas it may occur that quotations are not received by the Commission ; whereas a situation must be avoided where the lack of a quotation causes an abnormal evolution in the market prices calculated by the Commission ; whereas the missing quotation or quotations should be replaced by the last quotation available ; whereas the use of the last quotation available is no longer possible after a certain period without quotations, which may lead to the presumption of an abnormal situation in the market concerned;
Whereas in order to obtain a view of the market which is as accurate as possible it is desirable that regular information on the other products of the pigmeat sector is available to the Commission, as well as other information which Member States have at their disposal;
Whereas this Regulation incorporates the provisions of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2330/74 (7), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1188/77 (8) ; whereas Regulation (EEC) No 2330/74 may therefore be repealed;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Pigmeat,
1. The Member States shall communicate to the Commission at the latest on the Thursday of each week concerning the preceding week: (a) the quotations as determined in accordance with Regulation (EEC) No 2760/75 per 100 kilograms of pig carcase of commercial grade II at the marketing stage as defined in Regulation (EEC) No 1229/72 and recorded in the markets listed in the Annex to Regulation (EEC) No 2762/75;
(b) the representative quotations for piglets per head of an average live weight of approximately 20 kilograms.
2. Where one or more quotations are not received by the Commission the latter shall take into account the last quotation available. Where a quotation or quotations are missing for the third consecutive week, the Commission shall no longer take that or those quotations into account. (1)OJ No L 282, 1.11.1975, p. 1. (2)OJ No L 171, 28.6.1978, p. 19. (3)OJ No L 282, 1.11.1975, p. 10. (4)OJ No L 136, 14.6.1972, p. 9. (5)OJ No L 282, 1.11.1975, p. 17. (6)OJ No L 282, 1.11.1975, p. 23. (7)OJ No L 249, 12.9.1974, p. 13. (8)OJ No L 138, 4.6.1977, p. 12.
The Member States shall communicate to the Commission once a month for the preceding month the average market price for pig carcases for commercial grades E to IV as specified in Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2760/75.
However, as regards Italy, the information referred to in the preceding subparagraph shall be communicated only with effect from 1 January 1983.
The Member States shall, at the Commission's request, communicate the following information, where available concerning products covered by Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75: (a) market prices in Member States for products imported from non-member countries;
(b) prices ruling on representative market in non-member countries.
The Commission shall evaluate the information transmitted by the Member States and shall communicate it to the Management Committee for Pigmeat.

(notified under document number C(2006) 3940)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2006/605/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 90/425/EEC of 26 June 1990 concerning veterinary and zootechnical checks applicable in intra-Community trade in certain live animals and products with a view to the completion of the internal market (1), and in particular Article 10(4) thereof,
Having regard to Council Directive 2005/94/EC of 20 December 2005 on Community measures for the control of avian influenza and repealing Directive 92/40/EEC (2), and in particular Article 3 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Council Directive 90/539/EEC of 15 October 1990 on animal health conditions governing intra-Community trade in, and imports from third countries of, poultry and hatching eggs (3) lays down animal health conditions governing intra-Community trade and imports from third countries of poultry, including rules for intra-Community trade and imports of poultry intended for restocking wild game supplies.
(2) Commission Decision 2005/734/EC of 19 October 2005 laying down biosecurity measures to reduce the risk of transmission of highly pathogenic avian influenza caused by influenza virus A subtype H5N1 from birds living in the wild to poultry and other captive birds and providing for an early detection system in areas at particular risk (4) provides that Member States are to define on their territory areas at a particular risk for the introduction and occurrence of highly pathogenic avian influenza caused by influenza A virus of subtype H5N1 based on certain risk factors.
(3) Poultry intended for restocking wild game supplies comprise different species of farmed feathered game including waterfowl. Such poultry are bred in captivity and then released into the wild in order to be hunted and serve as a source of wild feathered game meat.
(4) Farming concerning poultry intended for restocking wild game supplies often involves contact with wild birds and might therefore pose an increased risk for the spread of avian influenza in particular when dispatched to other Member States or third countries.
(5) Experiences with outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza of subtype H5N1 and other avian influenza strains of H5 and H7 subtypes have shown that that category of poultry is particularly at risk and that additional measures should be taken to reduce such risks.
(6) Accordingly it is appropriate that Member States draw up guidelines for good biosecurity practices for that type of poultry production, detailing and complementing the measures provided for in Decision 2005/734/EC in particular as regards holdings from which poultry are dispatched to other Member States or third countries.
(7) Directive 2005/94/EC sets out certain preventive measures relating to the surveillance and early detection of avian influenza. That Directive requires the implementation of surveillance programmes for avian influenza in poultry holdings. The guidelines for good biosecurity practices, additional biosecurity measures and testing prior to the dispatch of poultry provided for in this Decision should give further guarantees for trade and exports in live poultry and reduce the risk of spreading the disease.
(8) Laboratory investigations should be carried out in accordance with the procedures laid down in Commission Decision 2006/437/EC of 31 August 2006 approving a Diagnostic Manual for avian influenza as provided for in Council Directive 2005/94/EC.
(9) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
Subject matter and scope
This Decision provides for:
(a) biosecurity measures to be applied on holdings keeping poultry intended for restocking supplies of wild game; and
(b) surveillance measures to be applied when productive poultry intended for restocking supplies of wild game, are dispatched to other Member States or third countries.

COUNCIL DECISION
of 22 April 2013
on guidelines for the employment policies of the Member States
(2013/208/EU)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 148(2) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (2),
After consulting the Committee of the Regions,
Having regard to the opinion of the Employment Committee,
Whereas:
(1) Article 145 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) provides that the Member States and the Union are to work towards developing a coordinated strategy for employment and particularly for promoting a skilled, trained and adaptable workforce and labour markets responsive to economic change with a view to achieving the objectives defined in Article 3 of the Treaty on European Union.
(2) The Europe 2020 strategy proposed by the Commission enables the Union to turn its economy towards smart, sustainable and inclusive growth, accompanied by high level employment, productivity and social cohesion. On 13 July 2010, the Council adopted its Recommendation on broad guidelines for the economic policies of the Member States and of the Union (3). Furthermore, on 21 October 2010, the Council adopted its Decision 2010/707/EU on guidelines for the employment policies of the Member States (4) (‘employment guidelines’). Those sets of guidelines form the integrated guidelines for implementing the Europe 2020 strategy. Five headline targets, listed under the relevant integrated guidelines, constitute shared objectives which guide the action of the Member States, taking into account their relative starting positions and national circumstances as well as the positions and circumstances of the Union. The European Employment Strategy plays the leading role in the implementation of the employment and labour market objectives of the Europe 2020 strategy.
(3) The integrated guidelines are in line with the conclusions of the European Council of 17 June 2010. They give precise guidance to the Member States on defining their national reform programmes and on implementing reforms. The employment guidelines should form the basis for any country-specific recommendations that the Council may address to the Member States under Article 148(4) of the TFEU, in parallel with the country-specific recommendations addressed to the Member States under Article 121(2) of the TFEU. The employment guidelines should also form the basis for the establishment of the Joint Employment Report sent annually by the Council and the Commission to the European Council.
(4) The examination of the Member States’ draft national reform programmes, contained in the Joint Employment Report adopted by the Council on 28 February 2013, shows that Member States should continue to make every effort to address the following priorities: increasing labour market participation and reducing structural unemployment, developing a skilled workforce responding to labour market needs and promoting job quality and lifelong learning, improving the performance of education and training systems at all levels and increasing participation in tertiary education, promoting social inclusion and combating poverty.
(5) The employment guidelines adopted in 2010 should remain stable until 2014 to ensure a focus on their implementation. Until the end of 2014, any updating of the employment guidelines should remain strictly limited. In 2011 and 2012, the employment guidelines were maintained. They should be maintained for 2013.
(6) Member States should explore the use of the European Social Fund when implementing the employment guidelines,
The guidelines for the employment policies of the Member States, as set out in the Annex to Decision 2010/707/EU, are maintained for 2013 and shall be taken into account by the Member States in their employment policies.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

Articles 5, 6 and 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1265/2001 provide that the production refund applying to raw sugar, sucrose syrups and unprocessed isoglucose is to be derived from the refund fixed for white sugar in accordance with a method of calculation specific to each basic product.
(3) Article 9 of Regulation (EC) No 1265/2001 provides that the production refund on white sugar is to be fixed at monthly intervals commencing on the first day of each month. It may be adjusted in the intervening period where there is a significant change in the prices for sugar on the Community and/or world markets. The application of those provisions results in the production refund fixed in Article 1 of this Regulation for the period shown.
(4) As a result of the amendment to the definition of white sugar and raw sugar in Article 1(2)(a) and (b) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, flavoured or coloured sugars or sugars containing any other added substances are no longer deemed to meet those definitions and should thus be regarded as "other sugar". However, in accordance with Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 1265/2001, they attract the production refund as basic products. A method should accordingly be laid down for calculating the production refund on these products by reference to their sucrose content.
(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
The production refund on white sugar referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1265/2001 shall be equal to EUR 38,791/100 kg net.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 November 2001.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION DECISION of 30 July 1996 amending for the fourth time Decision No 95/33/EC approving parts of the Finnish programme for the implementation of Articles 138 to 140 of the Act concerning the conditions of Accession of the Republic of Austria, the Republic of Finland and the Kingdom of Sweden (Only the Finnish and Swedish texts are authentic) (97/449/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Austria, Finland and Sweden, and in particular Article 138 thereof,
Whereas on 26 October 1994 Finland notified the Commission, pursuant to Article 143 of the Act of Accession, of the Finnish programme for the implementation of its aid schemes under Articles 138, 139 and 140 in respect of a number of products and activities for the period 1995 to 1999 inclusive;
Whereas parts of this programme, as modified by letter dated 16 December 1994, were approved by Commission Decision 95/33/EC (1); whereas that Decision was amended by Decisions 95/330/EC (2), 95/529/EC (3) and 96/188/EC (4);
Whereas on 18 July 1996 Finland notified the Commission, pursuant to Article 143 of the Act of Accession, of a request for Commission authorization to modify that programme as regards the decrease in the aid rate for certain products;
Whereas Finland considers that the decrease in the amount of the aid for producers of certain products set out in Decision 95/33/EC is excessive;
Whereas a reduction of the decrease in the amount of the aid will giver farmers the opportunity of carrying out structural measures to support more easily the total disappearance of the aid at the end of the transitional period;
Whereas this modification of carrying out the decrease in the aid rate is in accordance with the provisions of the Act of Accession and in particular with the second paragraph of Article 138 (1) thereof, since that Article does not provide specific rules as to the amount of the decrease;
Whereas the modification of the decrease in the aid will not mean an extension of the duration of the aid under Article 138 beyond the transitional period laid down in the Act of Accession,
The aid levels in Annexes I and II to Decision 95/33/EC, for 1997 onwards, for the concerned products, are hereby replaced by the following:

of 13 September 2005
concerning a financial contribution by the Community in the context of the emergency measures taken to combat bluetongue in Spain in 2004 and 2005
(notified under document number C(2005) 3440)
(Only the Spanish text is authentic)
(2005/650/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 2000/75/EC of 20 November 2000 laying down specific provisions for the control and eradication of bluetongue (1), and in particular Article 9(2) thereof,
Having regard to Council Decision 90/424/EEC of 26 June 1990 on expenditure in the veterinary field (2), and in particular Article 3(3), (4) and (5), second indent, and Article 5(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Outbreaks of bluetongue occurred in Spain in 2004 and 2005. The emergence of this disease represents a serious risk to the Community's livestock population.
(2) In order to prevent the spread of the disease as rapidly as possible, the Community must contribute financially to the eligible expenditure incurred by the Member State in the context of the emergency measures taken to combat the disease, as provided for in Decision 90/424/EEC.
(3) Various decisions, notably the latest one, Decision 2005/393/EC of 23 May 2005 on protection and surveillance zones in relation to bluetongue and conditions applying to movements from or through these zones (3), have been adopted by the Commission in order to demarcate the protection and surveillance zones and to set out the conditions governing movements of animals from these zones.
(4) Bluetongue is a disease transmitted exclusively by ‘mosquitoes’, therefore the only measures which are apposite, of all those provided for in Article 3(2) of Decision 90/424/EEC, are those aimed either at protecting animals against attacks from the vectors (treatment with insecticides, confining the animals indoors at the times when the vectors are active) or at preventing the spread of the epidemic through movements of animals (Decision 2005/393/EC). The slaughter of animals of susceptible species is not an apposite measure except in the case of animals clinically affected with bluetongue.
(5) Due to the evolution of the disease, it is advisable to implement a vaccination campaign in the protection zones established around outbreaks of bluetongue.
(6) Vaccination is a measure which, employed in combination with the eradication measures already adopted, makes it possible to:
(a) reduce mortality in sheep;
(b) prevent viraemia in cattle and thus enable cattle to be moved from restricted zones.
(7) In accordance with Article 3(2) of Council Regulation (EC) No 1258/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the financing of the common agricultural policy (4), veterinary and plant health measures undertaken in accordance with Community rules are financed by the ‘Guarantee’ section of the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund. The auditing of these measures comes under Articles 8 and 9 of the said Regulation.
(8) The payment of the financial contribution from the Community must be subject to the condition that the actions planned have actually been carried out and that the authorities supply all the necessary information within the time-limits laid down.
(9) On 28 December 2004 Spain submitted an estimation of the costs incurred in the context of the emergency measures taken to combat the disease, amounting to EUR 11,5 million.
(10) Pending checks by the Commission, it is now necessary to set the amount for payment of the first instalment of the Community financial assistance. This first instalment must be equal to 50 % of the Community contribution, established on the basis of the estimated costs of compensating livestock farmers for the slaughter of animals and other costs.
(11) The terms ‘swift and adequate compensation of the livestock farmers’ used in Article 3 of Decision 90/424/EEC, ‘reasonable payments’ and ‘justified payments’ and the categories of eligible expenditure under ‘other costs’ associated with compulsory slaughter must all be defined.
(12) The Spanish authorities have fulfilled all their technical and administrative obligations with regard to the measures provided for in Article 3 of Decision 90/424/EEC.
(13) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
Approval of the vaccination campaign
The bluetongue vaccination campaign implemented by Spain in the zones listed in Annex I to Decision 2005/393/EC is approved.
Granting of a financial contribution from the Community to Spain
In the context of the emergency measures taken to combat bluetongue in 2004 and 2005, Spain is entitled to a financial contribution from the Community:
1. amounting to 50 % of the expenditure incurred in:
(a) the swift and adequate compensation of livestock farmers forced to slaughter their animals as part of the measures to combat the outbreaks of bluetongue that occurred in 2004 and 2005, pursuant to Article 3(2), seventh indent of Decision 90/424/EEC and this Decision;
(b) the destruction of infected animals, disinsectisation and the implementation of the vaccination programme, under the conditions provided for in, respectively, Article 3(2), first and third indents, and Article 3(4) and (5), second indent, of Decision 90/424/EEC and this Decision;
2. amounting to 100 % of the cost of supply of vaccines, under the conditions provided for in Article 3(4) and (5), second indent, of Decision 90/424/EEC and this Decision.
Definitions
The following definitions apply to this Decision:
(a) ‘swift and adequate compensation’: payment, within 90 days of the slaughter of the animals, of compensation corresponding to the market value (the commercial price which the owner would normally have been able to obtain for the animal immediately before it became infected or was slaughtered, taking account of its fitness, quality and age) they had immediately prior to their infection, slaughter or destruction;
(b) ‘reasonable payments’: means payments for the purchase of materials or services at proportionate prices compared to the market prices before the outbreak of bluetongue;
(c) ‘justified payments’: payments made for the purchase of equipment or services in accordance with Article 3(2) of Decision 90/424/EEC, where their nature and direct link to the compulsory slaughter of animals on holdings have been demonstrated.
Payment arrangements
1. Subject to the results of the inspections referred to in Article 7, an initial instalment of EUR 2 500 000 shall be paid, as part of the Community financial contribution mentioned in Article 2, on the basis of supporting documents submitted by Spain relating to the swift and adequate compensation of owners for the compulsory slaughter of animals, the destruction of animals, disinsectisation of the holding and, where applicable, vaccination of animals.
2. The balance of the Community financial contribution mentioned in Article 2 shall be fixed in a subsequent decision to be adopted in accordance with the procedure established in Article 41 of Decision 90/424/EEC.
The eligible expenditure covered by the financial contribution from the Community
1. The financial contribution from the Community as referred to in Article 2 shall only be made in respect of justified and reasonable payments for the eligible costs as set out in Annex I.
2. Non-compliance by the Spanish authorities with the payment deadline referred to in Article 3(a) shall lead to a reduction in the eligible amounts, in accordance with the rules below:
— 25 % reduction for payments made between 91 and 105 days after slaughter of the animals,
— 50 % reduction for payments made between 106 and 120 days after slaughter of the animals,
— 75 % reduction for payments made between 121 and 135 days after slaughter of the animals,
— 100 % reduction for payments made later than 136 days after slaughter of the animals.
However, the Commission may apply a different scale and/or lower reduction rates (or a zero reduction rate) if specific management conditions can be demonstrated for certain measures or if Spain provides a well grounded justification for the delay.
3. The financial contribution from the Community as referred to in Article 2 shall exclude:
(a) value added tax;
(b) remunerations of civil servants or public employees;
(c) the use of public equipment, except consumables;
(d) compensation for non-compulsory slaughter;
(e) compensation paid in addition to other Community support, such as slaughter premiums, in contravention of Community rules;
(f) compensation linked to the destruction or renovation of farm buildings, infrastructure costs and costs linked to financial losses or unemployment associated with the presence of the disease or a ban on restocking.
Payment conditions and supporting documents
1. The financial contribution from the Community as referred to in Article 2 shall be paid on the basis of:
(a) an application submitted, in accordance with Annexes II, IIIa and IIIb, within the time-limit laid down in paragraph 2;
(b) the supporting documents referred to in Article 2, including an epidemiological report on each holding where animals have been slaughtered and destroyed, as well as a financial report;
(c) the results of any in situ inspections carried out by the Commission, as referred to in Article 7.
The documents referred to in (b) shall be made available for on-the-spot audits by the Commission.
2. The application referred to in paragraph (1) (a) must be submitted in computerised form, in accordance with Annexes II, IIIa and IIIb, within sixty calendar days of the date of notification of this Decision. If this time-limit is not observed, the financial contribution from the Community shall be reduced by 25 % for every month of delay.
Commission in situ inspections
The Commission, in collaboration with the competent Spanish authorities, may conduct in situ inspections relating to the implementation of the measures referred to in Article 2 and the associated costs.

of 25 February 2005
amending Regulations (EC) No 1432/94 and (EC) No 1458/2003, as regards the maximum quantity to which licence applications for import of pigmeat must relate
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organisation of the market in pigmeat (1), and in particular Article 11(1) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 774/94 of 29 March 1994 opening and providing for the administration of certain Community tariff quotas for high-quality beef, and for pigmeat, poultrymeat, wheat and meslin, and brans, sharps and other residues (2), and in particular Article 7 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1095/96 of 18 June 1996 on the implementation of the concessions set out in schedule CXL drawn up in the wake of the conclusion of the GATT XXIV: 6 negotiations (3), and in particular Article 1 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1432/94 of 22 June 1994 laying down detailed rules for the application in the pigmeat sector of the import arrangements provided for in Council Regulation (EC) No 774/94 opening and providing for the administration of certain Community tariff quotas for pigmeat and certain other agricultural products (4) and Commission Regulation (EC) No 1458/2003 of 18 August 2003 opening and providing for the administration of a tariff quota in the pigmeat sector (5) opened import quotas for pigmeat and laid down precise conditions governing access by traders to those quotas.
(2) The utilisation of the two import quotas has been generally low in recent years and the fixing of a relatively low maximum quantity to which a licence application must relate may have been a discouraging factor. In order to facilitate trade of pigmeat under those two import quotas it is necessary to increase that maximum quantity.
(3) Regulations (EC) No 1432/94 and (EC) No 1458/2003 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Pigmeat,
In Article 3(b) of Regulation (EC) No 1432/94, the rate of ‘10 %’ is replaced by ‘20 %’.
In Article 4(b) of Regulation (EC) No 1458/2003, the rates of ‘10 %’ are replaced by ‘20 %’.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply to licence applications lodged as from 1 March 2005.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),
Whereas:
(1) Council Decision 2002/883/EC (3) of 5 November providing further macro-financial assistance to Bosnia and Herzegovina includes a loan component of a maximum principal of EUR 20 million and a grant component of a maximum of EUR 40 million.
(2) Due to delays in the implementation of the required policy reforms as agreed between the European Commission and Bosnia and Herzegovina, so far only a first (EUR 15 million) and a second tranche (EUR 20 million) could be released. A third and final tranche of up to EUR 25 million is still outstanding.
(3) Bosnia and Herzegovina is committed to a continued economic stabilisation and reform path. Following the successful completion of the previous IMF Standby Arrangement in February 2004 negotiations were under way on a new IMF-supported programme.
(4) The country continues to require external financial support in addition to what can be provided by international financial institutions.
((5) Decision 2002/883/EC should be amended to permit the commitments and the payments of grant funds and loan disbursements beyond 9 November 2004.
(6) The Treaty does not provide, for the adoption of this decision, powers other than those of Article 308.
(7) After consulting the Economic and Financial Committee,
The second subparagraph of Article 6 of Decision 2002/883/EC is replaced by the following:
‘It shall apply as from 8 November 2004 and until 30 June 2005’.
