5801,"2014/389/EU: Commission Implementing Decision of 23 June 2014 on additional historical aviation emissions and additional aviation allowances to take into consideration the accession of Croatia to the European Union  Text with EEA relevance. ,Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,Having regard to the Act of Accession of Croatia (1), and in particular Section 10(I)(1)(a) of Annex V thereof,Whereas:(1) Point (i) of Section 10(I)(1)(a) of Annex V to the Act of Accession of Croatia concerning the inclusion of all flights between two aerodromes situated in the Croatian territory, and all flights between an aerodrome situated in the Croatian territory and an aerodrome situated in a country outside the EEA area (hereinafter referred to as ‘additional aviation activities’) sets out that, by way of derogation from Article 3c(2) of Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (2), the period referred to in Article 13(1) of that Directive and beginning on 1 January 2013 shall start on 1 January 2014 for the additional aviation activities.(2) Pursuant to point (ii) of Section 10(I)(1)(a) of Annex V to the Act of Accession of Croatia, by way of derogation from Article 3c(4) of Directive 2003/87/EC, the Commission shall decide, following the procedure referred to in that same provision, on the historical aviation emissions for the additional aviation activities within a period of six months from the date of accession.(3) The total quantity of allowances to be allocated to aircraft operators is defined as a percentage of historical aviation emissions. Point (s) of Article 3 of Directive 2003/87/EC defines historical aviation emissions as the mean average of the annual emissions in the calendar years 2004, 2005 and 2006 from aircraft performing an aviation activity listed in Annex I to that Directive. Article 3c(2) of that Directive provides that the total quantity of allowances to be allocated to aircraft operators should be calculated on the basis of that historical average.(4) The Commission has been assisted by Eurocontrol, in accordance with Article 18b of Directive 2003/87/EC, in the calculation of historical aviation emissions for the additional aviation activities. The best available data for the calculation of the historic emissions was considered to be the comprehensive air traffic data contained in Eurocontrol's databases from the Central Route Charges Office and the Central Flow Management Unit. Those provide the actual route length for each individual flight. Emissions were then calculated on a flight-by-flight basis using the Abatement of Nuisances Caused by Air Transport 3 methodology and the Calculation of Emissions by Selective Equivalence methodology. That approach to calculating historic emissions was further enhanced through use of actual fuel consumption information provided voluntarily by a representative number of aircraft operators in order to validate the results.(5) The annual emissions of additional aviation activities in the calendar year 2004 from aircraft performing an aviation activity set out in Annex I to Directive 2003/87/EC is considered to be 114 024 tonnes of CO2. The annual emissions in the calendar year 2005 from such aircraft is considered to be 126 827 tonnes of CO2, and the annual emissions in the calendar year 2006 from such aircraft is considered to be 127 120 tonnes of CO2. The historical aviation emissions are 122 657 tonnes of CO2.(6) Pursuant to point (viii) of Section 10(I)(1)(a) of Annex V to the Act of Accession of Croatia, by way of derogation from point (d) of Article 3e(3) of Directive 2003/87/EC, for the additional aviation activities, the number of allowances to be allocated free of charge shall be calculated by multiplying the benchmark referred to in point (e) of Article 3e(3) of that Directive by the sum of the tonne-kilometre data included in the applications submitted to the Commission in accordance with point(vi) of Section 10(I)(1)(a) of Annex V to the Act of Accession of Croatia.(7) The Commission has analysed the applications related to the additional aviation activities submitted by Croatia in accordance with point (vi) of Section 10(I)(1)(a) of Annex V to the Act of Accession of Croatia and the calculations of the historical aviation emissions for the additional aviation activities provided by Eurocontrol and concludes that the benchmark specified in point (e) of Article 3e(3) of Directive 2003/87/EC should not be subject to a uniform correction factor as provided for in point (viii) of Section 10(I)(1)(a) of Annex V to the Act of Accession of Croatia.(8) Pursuant to point (iii) of Section 10(I)(1)(a) of Annex V to the Act of Accession of Croatia, by way of derogation from Article 3d(2) of Directive 2003/87/EC, from 1 January 2014, the percentage of the allowances to be auctioned for the additional aviation activities shall be the proportion of the allowances remaining after having deducted the number of allowances to be allocated free of charge under point (d) of Article 3e(3) of that Directive and the number of allowances to be set aside in a special reserve under Article 3f of that Directive.(9) The measures provided for in this Decision have been considered within the Climate Change Committee,. The additional historical aviation emissions for the additional aviation activities are 122 657 tonnes of CO2. The Union-wide total number of allowances for the additional aviation activities relating to each year of the period from 1 January 2014 to 31 December 2020 is 116 524. Calculations relating to the number of allowances to be allocated for additional aviation activities in accordance with the benchmark referred to in point (e) of Article 3e(3) of Directive 2003/87/EC shall be rounded down to the nearest allowance. The Union-wide total number of allowances to be allocated free of charge for additional aviation activities relating to each year of the period from 1 January 2014 to 31 December 2020 is 41 584. The additional Union-wide total number of allowances to be set aside in the special reserve is 3 495. The additional Union-wide number of aviation allowances to be auctioned relating to each year of the period from 1 January 2014 to 31 December 2020 is 71 445.

28130,"Council Regulation (EC) No 639/2004 of 30 March 2004 on the management of fishing fleets registered in the Community outermost regions. ,Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 37 and Article 299(2) thereof,Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament(1),Whereas:(1) Council Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 of 20 December 2002 on the conservation and sustainable exploitation of fisheries resources under the Common Fisheries Policy(2), and in particular Chapter III thereof, establishes a Community scheme to adjust the fishing capacities of the Member States' fleets, to a level globally compatible with fishing opportunities.(2) Council Regulation (EC) No 2792/1999 of 17 December 1999 laying down the detailed rules and arrangements regarding Community structural assistance in the fisheries sector(3) covers modernisation of fishing vessels with public aid and public aid for the renewal of fishing vessels.(3) Given the relative importance of the fisheries sector in those regions, it is justifiable to take account of the particular structural, social and economic situation of the Community outermost regions (outermost regions) in respect of management of fishing fleets. To that end, the provisions on management of entry/exit schemes and compulsory withdrawal of capacity, in Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002, and the rules on access to public aid for the modernisation and for the renewal of fishing vessels should be adapted to the needs of those regions.(4) Any capacity increase for fleets registered in ports of outermost regions should also be limited to that justified by local fishing opportunities and the size of fleets kept in balance with those opportunities. To that end the objectives fixed by the multiannual guidance programmes IV (MAGP IV) for each fleet segment, as established in the Annex to Commission Decision 2002/652/EC of 29 July 2002 amending Decisions 98/119/EC to 98/131/EC in order to prolong the multiannual guidance programmes for the fishing fleets of the Member States until 31 December 2002(4), should be considered as reference levels for, or the upper limit to, the expansion of fleets registered in the French overseas departments, the Azores and Madeira.(5) Specific reference levels should be determined for vessel segments registered in the Canary Islands, for which no specific objectives were fixed in the MAGP IV framework. These reference levels should take account of the capacity of the local fleet in relation to fishing possibilities.(6) It is necessary to prevent vessels registered in the outermost regions from being transferred and used in the mainland after benefiting from more favourable treatment as regards the granting of public aid and/or conditions for entry into the fleet.(7) It is justifiable to apply to the fleets registered in the outermost regions the same rules on fleet capacity management and public aid as are applied to vessels registered in the rest of the Community as soon as the reference levels defined in this Regulation are met, and in any case as from 1 January 2007, except for vessels having received public aid for renewal, where the entry into the fleet might take place until 31 December 2007.(8) To facilitate the implementation of this Regulation, Member States should collect information on vessels registered in the outermost regions. The Commission should be provided with this information and report on it to ensure full transparency of measures implemented.(9) As new general rules for fleet capacity management and public aid have been introduced in Regulations (EC) No 2371/2002 and (EC) No 2792/1999 with effect from 1 January 2003, the specific arrangements for the outermost regions should also apply from that date.(10) The measures necessary for the implementation of this Regulation should be adopted in accordance with Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission(5),. Specific reference levels1. For the fleet segments registered in the outermost regions as indicated in Article 299(2) of the Treaty the following specific reference levels for fishing capacity shall apply:(a) for the French overseas departments, the Azores and Madeira: the respective MAGP IV objectives for each fleet segment, expressed in kW and GT, for each outermost region at the end of 2002;(b) for the Canary Islands: reference levels that take as their starting point the capacities in kW and GT of the relevant fleet segments for vessels registered in Canary Island ports on 1 January 2003 and may be increased on the basis of fishing opportunities for these segments. Increases may be justified up to the objectives that would have been adopted if MAGP IV procedures had applied to these particular segments and shall be in accordance with the most recent scientific advice validated by the Scientific Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries established pursuant to Article 33 of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002.2. Implementing rules for this Article shall be adopted in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 5(2). Fleet renewal and modernisationFor the fleet segments covered by Article 1(1):1. by way of derogation from Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002:(a) new capacity may enter the fleet, with or without public aid, within the limits of the specific reference levels indicated in Article 1,(b) the obligation to achieve a reduction in overall fleet capacity of 3 % of the reference levels is not applicable;2. by way of derogation from Article 9(1)(c)(i) of Regulation No 2792/1999, public aid to modernise the fleet in terms of tonnage and/or power may be granted;3. the derogations laid down in paragraphs 1 and 2 above shall cease to apply as soon as the reference levels are reached, and in any case not later than 31 December 2006;4. by way of derogation from Article 9(1)(a) of Regulation No 2792/1999, public aid for the renewal of fishing vessels may be granted until 31 December 2005;5. notwithstanding paragraph 3 above, for fishing vessels having received public aid for renewal, the derogation in paragraph 1(a) above, will cease to apply two years after the public aid for renewal has been granted and in any case not later than 31 December 2007. Transfer of vessels to the continentAny transfer of a vessel from an outermost region to the continent shall be treated as an entry in the continental fleet within the meaning of Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002. Public aid for fleet renewal and for the equipment or modernisation of fishing vessels shall be reimbursed pro rata temporis in the case of transfer of a vessel to the continent before the end of a period of:(a) 10 years in the case of public aid for fleet renewal; and(b) five years in the case of public aid for the equipment or modernisation of fishing vesselsto be dated from the time when the administrative decision to grant aid was taken. Management of capacity1. Member States shall manage fleets registered in outermost regions in such a way as to comply with this Regulation.2.

21169,"Regulation (EC) No 257/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 January 2001 regarding the implementation of measures to promote economic and social development in Turkey. ,Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 179 thereof,Having regard to the proposal from the Commission(1),Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty(2),Whereas:(1) Relations between the European Union and Turkey are based mainly on the Association Agreement of 12 September 1963(3) and the decisions of the Association Council which the Association Agreement set up.(2) Turkey is engaged in substantial reform to improve its economy, restructure and increase the efficiency of its public sector, modernise its economic and social infrastructure and develop its manufacturing sector.(3) The Cardiff European Council on 15 and 16 June 1998 affirmed the importance it attached to the implementation of the European strategy for Turkey and requested the Commission to table proposals, including proposals on financial matters, in that connection.(4) Income is unequally distributed across Turkey's provinces and in order to act on the conclusions of the Cardiff European Council it is, in particular, appropriate that these disparities be remedied by backing the development of regions which are lagging behind and by strengthening economic and social cohesion.(5) The conclusions of the Council meeting of 13 September 1999 referred to financial assistance for Turkey.(6) The Helsinki European Council of 10 and 11 December 1999 stated that Turkey was a candidate State destined to join the Union on the basis of the same criteria as applied to the other candidate States.(7) The provisions of this Regulation are based on respect for democratic principles, the rule of law, human rights and fundamental freedoms and respect for international law, which underpin the policies of the European Community and its Member States, and on the obligations entered into under the various agreements in those fields.(8) The Community attaches great importance to the need for Turkey to improve and promote its democratic practices and respect for fundamental human rights, and more closely involve civil society in that process.(9) The European Parliament has adopted a number of resolutions in particular on the importance of respect for human rights in Turkey to the development of close ties between that country and the European Union, namely those of 13 December 1995 on the human rights situation in Turkey, 17 September 1998 on the Commission reports on developments in relations with Turkey since the entry into force of the customs union, 3 December 1998 on the communication from the Commission to the Council and the European Parliament on the further development of relations with Turkey and on the communication from the Commission to the Council entitled ""European strategy for Turkey: the Commission's initial operational proposals"" and 6 October 1999 on the state of relations between Turkey and the European Union(4).(10) The measures necessary for the implementation of this Regulation should be adopted in accordance with Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission(5).(11) This Regulation lays down, for the entire duration of the programme, a financial framework constituting the prime reference, within the meaning of point 33 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 6 May 1999 between the European Parliament, the Council and Commission(6), for the budgetary authority during the annual budgetary procedure.(12) The projects and programmes financed with this support must further Turkey's economic and social development, help to promote the defence of human rights and respect for, and the protection of, the country's minorities, and contribute to the reform of its development policies and the restructuring of its institutional and legal framework in order to ensure compliance with these principles.(13) The projects and programmes financed with this support must benefit above all the population affected by Turkey's development lag,. The Community shall assist Turkey in its efforts to achieve economic and social development. The financial framework for the implementation of this programme for the period 2000 to 2002 is hereby set at EUR 135 million. The annual appropriations shall be authorised by the budgetary authority within the limits of the financial perspective. 1. The beneficiaries of cooperation projects and operations may include not only the Turkish state and regions but also local authorities, regional organisations, public bodies and departments, including the customs administration, local or traditional communities, business support organisations, cooperatives and civil society, in particular associations, foundations and non-governmental organisations.2. Where an essential element for the continuation of assistance to Turkey is lacking, in particular in the case of violation of democratic principles, the rule of law, human rights and fundamental freedoms and international law, the Council, acting by qualified majority on a proposal from the Commission, may decide upon appropriate measures.3. The Commission shall pass information on its indicative programme to the committee referred to in Article 7 (""MED Committee"") and to the joint parliamentary committee and the EU-Turkey joint economic and social committee. 1. Cooperation projects and operations may be financed in the following indicative areas:(a) modernising manufacturing, improving institutional and infrastructure capacity in areas including the environment, energy and transport, excluding the development of nuclear power, especially in earthquake zones;(b) promotion of industrial cooperation by methods including support for diversification in industry and the establishment of small and medium-sized enterprises;(c) cooperation in telecommunications, infrastructure, rural development and social services;(d) boosting the capacity of the Turkish economy, inter alia by measures to encourage the restructuring of the country's public sector and private initiative;(e) cooperation in protecting health;(f) cooperation in the field of education and training;(g) regional and cross-border cooperation;(h) any form of cooperation seeking to defend and promote democracy, the rule of law, human rights, respect for minorities and the protection and recognition of their cultural identity, and support for measures seeking to abolish capital punishment;(i) any form of cooperation seeking to resolve the Kurdish problem;(j) cooperation on humanitarian issues;(k) measures to promote the development of social dialogue within Turkey and between Turkey and the European Union;(l) all forms of assistance aimed at promoting the development of relations between the European Union and Turkey;(m) promotion of cooperation between the two parties' public administrations with a view to the approximation of legislation and the training of staff, including customs officers.2. Where appropriate, measures could be taken to underpin a structural adjustment programme on the basis of the following principles:(a) support programmes must be tailored as far as possible to Turkey's particular circumstances and take account of economic and social conditions;(b) support programmes must include measures to alleviate any negative impact of the structural adjustment process in social and employment terms, in particular for the most disadvantaged sectors of the population;(c) account must be taken of Turkey's economic situation, and in particular regional economic imbalances, its level of indebtedness, debt servicing charges, balance of payments and foreign currency supply, monetary situation, per capita gross domestic product and unemployment level. 1. Financial support under this Regulation shall take the form of grants.2. The instruments to be employed in the course of the operations covered by this Regulation shall include, within the limits established by the budgetary authority during the annual budget procedure, technical assistance, training or other services, supplies and works, along with audits and evaluation and monitoring missions.3. Community financing may cover investment, with the exception of the purchase of buildings, and recurring costs (including administrative, maintenance and operational costs), taking account of the fact that the project must aim to have the recurring costs taken over by the beneficiaries.4. A financial contribution from the partners defined in Article 3 shall be sought for each cooperation operation. The contribution requested shall be within the means of the partners concerned and shall depend on the nature of the operation. In specific cases where the partner is a non-governmental organisation or a community-based organisation, a contribution in kind may be made.5. Opportunities may be sought for cofinancing with other providers of funds, especially with Member States.6. The necessary measures shall be taken to emphasise the Community character of the aid provided under this Regulation.7.

The Commission, in conjunction with the Member States, may take any initiatives necessary for ensuring proper coordination with the other providers of funds involved. 1. The Commission shall examine, approve and administer operations covered by this Regulation according to the budgetary procedures in force, and in particular those laid down in the Financial Regulation of 21 December 1977 applicable to the general budget of the European Communities(7).2.

The information shall be made available at least one week before the decision is taken.The Commission shall take all necessary steps to facilitate take-up of grants by small, non-profit-making NGOs.4. Where the overrun or additional requirement is equal to, or less than, 20 % of the initial commitment fixed by the financing decision, the Commission shall be authorised to approve, without seeking the opinion of the MED Committee, any additional commitments needed for covering expected or real cost overruns in connection with the operations.Where the additional commitment referred to in the previous subparagraph is less than EUR 4 million, the MED Committee shall be informed of the decision taken by the Commission. Where the said additional commitment is more than EUR 4 million but less than 20 %, the Committee's opinion shall be required.5. All financing agreements or contracts concluded under this Regulation shall provide for the Commission and the Court of Auditors to conduct on-the-spot checks according to the usual procedures laid down by the Commission under the rules in force, and in particular those of the Financial Regulation.6. Where operations are the subject of financing agreements between the Community and Turkey, such agreements shall stipulate that the payment of taxes, duties or any other charges is not to be covered by the Community.7. Participation in invitations to tender and the award of contracts shall be open on equal terms to all natural and legal persons in the Member States and Turkey.8. Supplies shall originate in the Member States or Turkey. 1. The Commission shall be assisted by the committee set up by Regulation (EC) No 1488/96(8), called the ""MED Committee"".2.

In the interests of clarity and rationality, that Regulation should be codified.(2) By Council Regulation (EC) No 1225/2009 (5), common rules were laid down for protection against dumped imports from countries which are not members of the European Union.(3) By Council Regulation (EC) No 597/2009 (6), common rules were laid down for protection against subsidised imports from countries which are not members of the European Union.(4) Under the Marrakesh Agreement establishing the World Trade Organisation (‘WTO’), an Understanding on Rules and Procedures Governing the Settlement of Disputes (‘DSU’) was reached. Pursuant to the DSU, the Dispute Settlement Body (‘DSB’) was established.(5) With a view to permitting the Union, where it considers this appropriate, to bring a measure taken under Regulation (EC) No 1225/2009 or Regulation (EC) No 597/2009 into conformity with the recommendations and rulings contained in a report adopted by the DSB, specific provisions should be laid down.(6) The Commission may consider it appropriate to repeal, amend or adopt any other special measures with respect to measures taken under Regulation (EC) No 1225/2009 or Regulation (EC) No 597/2009, including measures which have not been the subject of dispute settlement under the DSU, in order to take account of the legal interpretations made in a report adopted by the DSB. In addition, the Commission should be able, where appropriate, to suspend or review such measures.(7) Recourse to the DSU is not subject to time limits. The recommendations in reports adopted by the DSB only have prospective effect. Consequently, it is appropriate to specify that any measures taken under this Regulation will take effect from the date of their entry into force, unless otherwise specified, and, therefore, do not provide any basis for the reimbursement of the duties collected prior to that date.(8) The implementation of this Regulation requires uniform conditions for adopting measures following a report adopted by the DSB concerning anti-dumping and anti-subsidy matters. Those measures should be adopted in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 182/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council (7).(9) The advisory procedure should be used for the suspension of measures for a limited period of time given the effects of such measures,. 1.   Whenever the DSB adopts a report concerning a Union measure taken pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1225/2009, to Regulation (EC) No 597/2009 or to this Regulation (‘disputed measure’), the Commission may take one or more of the following measures, whichever it considers appropriate, in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 4(3):(a) repeal or amend the disputed measure; or(b) adopt any other special implementing measure deemed to be appropriate in the circumstances in order to bring the Union into conformity with the recommendations and rulings contained in the report.2.   For the purpose of taking a measure under paragraph 1, the Commission may request interested parties to provide all necessary information in order to complete the information obtained during the investigation that resulted in the adoption of the disputed measure.3.   Insofar as it is appropriate to conduct a review before or at the same time as taking any measure under paragraph 1, that review shall be initiated by the Commission. The Commission shall provide information to the Member States once it decides to initiate a review.4.   Insofar as it is appropriate to suspend the disputed or amended measure, such suspension shall be granted for a limited period of time by the Commission, acting in accordance with the advisory procedure referred to in Article 4(2). 1.   The Commission may also take any of the measures mentioned in Article 1(1) in order to take into account the legal interpretations made in a report adopted by the DSB with regard to a non-disputed measure, if it considers this appropriate.2.   For the purpose of taking a measure under paragraph 1, the Commission may request interested parties to provide all necessary information in order to complete the information obtained during the investigation that resulted in the adoption of the non-disputed measure.3.   Insofar as it is appropriate to conduct a review before or at the same time as taking any measure under paragraph 1, that review shall be initiated by the Commission. The Commission shall provide information to the Member States once it decides to initiate a review.4.   Insofar as it is appropriate to suspend the non-disputed or amended measure, that suspension shall be granted for a limited period of time by the Commission, acting in accordance with the advisory procedure referred to in Article 4(2). Any measures adopted pursuant to this Regulation shall take effect from the date of their entry into force and shall not serve as a basis for the reimbursement of the duties collected prior to that date, unless otherwise provided for. 1.   The Commission shall be assisted by the Committee established by Article 15(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1225/2009. That Committee shall be a committee within the meaning of Regulation (EU) No 182/2011.2.   Where reference is made to this paragraph, Article 4 of Regulation (EU) No 182/2011 shall apply.3.   Where reference is made to this paragraph, Article 5 of Regulation (EU) No 182/2011 shall apply. The Commission shall include information on the implementation of this Regulation in its annual report on the application and implementation of trade defence measures presented to the European Parliament and to the Council pursuant to Article 22a of Regulation (EC) No 1225/2009.

13130,"Council Regulation (EC) No 1799/94 of 18 July 1994 on special arrangements for imports of maize and sorghum into Spain for the year 1994. ,Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 113 thereof,Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,Whereas, under Council Regulation (EC) No 532/94 of 7 March 1994 extending the measures taken under the Agreement between the European Economic Community and the United States of America for the conclusion of negotiations under GATT Article XXIV.6 (1),  the Community undertook, in respect of the year 1994, to open a quota for imports into Spain of two million tonnes of maize and 300 000 tonnes of sorghum, minus the quantities of certain grain substitutes imported into that country during the same year;  whereas the quantities of maize and sorghum imported must be used or processed in Spain; whereas the Community has sole competence for the said Agreement;Whereas, to ensure that the Agreement between the European Economic Community and the United States of America is implemented, the extended arrangements provide for direct purchase on the world market or application of an import levy reduction system;  whereas, however, imports into Spain effected on preferential terms may create difficulties for the Community market; whereas, to overcome that difficulty, provision should be made for the possibility of applying a countervailing duty to processed  products exported either to third countries or to the rest of the Community;Whereas the combination of the advantages provided for under the arrangements established by Council Regulation (EEC) No 715/90 of 5 March 1990 (2), applicable to imports into the Community of sorghum and maize originating in the African, Caribbean and  Pacific (ACP) States or in the overseas countries and territories (OCT) and under this Regulation is liable to create disturbances on the Spanish market in cereals; whereas that difficulty can be overcome by setting a special reduction of the levy on  maize and sorghum imported under this Regulation;Whereas provisions are required to cover the operations arising from this Regulation according to the mechanisms laid down by Council Regulation (EEC) No 729/70 of 21 April 1970 on the financing of the common agricultural policy (3), and by Council  Regulation (EEC) No 1883/78 of 2 August 1978 laying down general rules for the financing of interventions by the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund, Guarantee Section (4),. For 1994 imports from third countries, for free circulation in Spain, of a maximum quantity of two million tonnes of maize and 300 000 tonnes of sorghum shall be effected as provided in the following Articles. 1. The quantities referred to in Article 1 shall be reduced in proportion to any quantities of maize gluten, brewers' grains and citrus pulp imported into Spain from third countries during the year 1994. Where it is ascertained that the  quantities for such products imported into Spain under the cover of documents establishing their Community status develop abnormally, the necessary action shall be taken in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 23 of Regulation (EEC) No  1766/92 (5).2. The quantities of maize and sorghum referred to in Article 1 shall be allocated to processing or use in Spain. 1. Without prejudice to Article 4, for imports of maize and sorghum into Spain, within the quantitative limits set in Article 2, a reduction shall be applied to the levy fixed in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92.2. The amount of the reduction shall be fixed, in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 23 of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92, at a level enabling disturbance of the Spanish market to be avoided. The reduction may also be fixed by a tendering  procedure.The reduction may be differentiated for imports of maize and sorghum into Spain under Regulation (EEC) No 715/90.3. The reduction shall be applied to imports of maize and sorghum into Spain effected on the basis of a licence valid only in that Member State. 1. With a view to effecting the imports referred to in Article 1, it may be decided, under the procedure laid down in Article 23 of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92, that the Spanish intervention agency shall purchase directly on the world market  quantities of maize and sorghum to be determined, and shall place them under customs warehousing procedure as provided for in Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 of 12 October 1992 establishing the Community Customs Code (6) and Commission Regulation  (EEC) No 2454/93 of 2 July 1993 laying down provisions for the implementation of Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 (7).2. Quantities purchased pursuant to paragraph 1 shall be put up for sale on the Spanish domestic market, in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 23 of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92, on terms enabling market disturbance to be avoided.3. When the goods are placed in free circulation, an agricultural levy shall be charged, equal to the average of the levies applicable in Spain and fixed for the cereals concerned during the first 25 days of the month preceding the date of acceptance of  the declaration of entry into free circulation, minus the difference between the threshold price and the intervention price for the same month.Entry into free circulation shall be effected by the Spanish intervention agency.When the purchasers of the goods make payment to the invervention agency, the selling price, minus the levy, shall correspond to revenue from sales within the meaning of the Annex to Regulation (EEC) No 3492/90 (8).4. The purchasing operation provided for in paragraph 1 shall rank as intervention for the purpose of stabilizing the agricultural markets within the meaning of Article 1 (2) (b) of Regulation (EEC) No 729/70.5. Payments by the intervention agency for buying as provided for in paragraph 1 shall be borne by the Community as they arise and shall be treated in the same way as the expenditure referred to in Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 1883/78. The Spanish  intervention agency shall record the value of the merchandise purchased at a price of 'zero' in the account referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 1883/78. At a frequency to be determined, the Commission shall record in accounts:- the quantities of maize and sorghum imported into Spain from third countries,- the quantities of maize gluten, brewers' grains and citrus pulp imported into Spain.For this purpose, the Spanish authorities shall supply the Commission regularly with all necessary information. The imports referred to in Article 2 shall be effected not later than the end of February of the following year. In the event of technical difficulties duly noted by the Commission a period of importation exceeding that time limit may be laid  down in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 23 of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92. Where the markets for products derived from maize or sorghum are disturbed, a countervailing duty may be introduced in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 23 of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 for exports of the relevant products  from Spain or for their consignment to other Member States. The following shall be adopted in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 23 of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92:- any measures needed to ensure that the cereals, the levy for which has been reduced, are actually processed or used in Spain; such measures may in particular provide for the deposit of a security,- the other detailed rules for the application of this Regulation, and in particular those relating to the issue of import licences; such rules may stipulate that the licences may be issued only in Spain, after Commission endorsement.

2798,"2001/225/EC: Council Decision of 12 March 2001 authorising the Federal Republic of Germany to apply a differentiated rate of excise duty to certain mineral oils, when used for specific purposes, in accordance with the procedure provided for in Article 8(4) of Directive 92/81/EEC. ,Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,Having regard to Council Directive 92/81/EEC of 19 October 1992 on the harmonisation of the structures of excise duties on mineral oils(1), and in particular Article 8(4) thereof,Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,Whereas:(1) Pursuant to Article 8(4) of Directive 92/81/EEC, the Council, acting unanimously on a proposal from the Commission may authorise any Member State to introduce exemptions or reductions in the excise duty charged on mineral oils for special policy considerations.(2) The German authorities informed the Commission that a new law on the continuation of environmental tax reforms, brought into force on 1 January 2000, provided for differentiating levels of mineral oil duty on fuels according to their sulphur content.(3) The new law provided for mineral oil duty on petrol and diesel fuel with a sulphur content exceeding 50 ppm (parts per million) to be increased by 3 pfennigs per litre from 1 November 2001 and for this higher tax to be applied to fuels with a sulphur content exceeding 10 ppm from 1 January 2003.(4) The German authorities requested Council authorisation to apply the differentiated rate of excise duties and the Council authorised the German authorities to introduce a differentiated rate of excise duty for fuels with a sulphur content not exceeding 50 ppm from 1 November 2001 to 31 December 2002.(5) The Commission and Member States consider that, on the basis of the currently available information, there are no indications that extending the application of a differentiated rate of excise duty to fuels with a maximum sulphur content of 10 ppm is likely to give rise to distortions of competition or hinder the operation of the internal market.(6) This Decision does not prejudice the outcome of any future State aid procedures that may be undertaken in accordance with Articles 87 and 88 of the Treaty(2).(7) The Commission regularly reviews reductions and exemptions to check that they do not distort competition or the operation of the internal market or are incompatible with Community policy on protection of the environment.(8) The Federal Republic of Germany has requested authorisation from 1 January 2003 to apply to fuels with a maximum sulphur content of 10 ppm a mineral oil tax of 3 pfennigs per litre less than that on fuels with a higher sulphur content.(9) The Council will review this Decision on the basis of a proposal from the Commission no later than 31 December 2005 when the authorisation granted by this Decision expires,. In accordance with Article 8(4) of Directive 92/81/EEC, the Federal Republic of Germany is authorised from 1 January 2003 until 31 December 2005 to apply a differentiated rate of excise duty to fuels with a maximum sulphur content of 10 ppm (parts per million) provided that the differentiated rates are in accordance with the obligations laid down in Council Directive 92/82/EEC of 19 October 1992 on the approximation of the rates of excise duties on mineral oils(3), and in particular the minimum rates of excise duty provided for in Articles 4 and 5 thereof.

In order to avert that danger, it is therefore necessary to take appropriate precautionary measures, but without precluding the conclusion of long-term contracts. The fixing of specific refund rates for the advance fixing of refunds in respect of those products should enable those two objectives to be met.(5) Article 15(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1043/2005 provides that, when the rate of the refund is being fixed, account is to be taken, where appropriate, of production refunds, aids or other measures having equivalent effect applicable in all Member States in accordance with the Regulation on the common organisation of the market in the product in question to the basic products listed in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1043/2005 or to assimilated products.(6) Article 12(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 provides for the payment of aid for Community-produced skimmed milk processed into casein if such milk and the casein manufactured from it fulfil certain conditions.(7) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1898/2005 of 9 November 2005 laying down detailed rules for implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 as regards measures for the disposal of cream, butter and concentrated butter (3), lays down that butter and cream at reduced prices should be made available to industries which manufacture certain goods.(8) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,.

The opening of a specialist cinema in a Member State shall not entitle any other Member State to grant any direct or indirect aid, whether financial or other, which would have the effect of distorting the conditions of establishment.In particular, no such aid shall be granted for:  - the construction, reconstruction or modernisation of any cinema;- the execution of work in connection with safety, hygiene or technical improvements;- the purchasing of equipment;- the renting of full-length films;- the covering of risks or trading losses.Any and every kind of aid available in the Member State in question for the opening of a specialist cinema shall be available without discrimination to operators who are nationals of other Member States of the Community.Beneficiaries from Member States shall in no instance be treated less favourably than natural persons or companies or firms from third countries.

The Council, acting on a proposal from the Commission and at the request of a Member State, may, by a qualified majority, authorise that State to impose limits on the exhibition, whether in specialist or in non-specialist cinemas, of foreign films in the language of their country of origin where such language is that of the region in which the cinema is situated. Import quotas for films having the nationality of one or more Member States shall be abolished by 31 December 1966 at the latest.The Federal Republic of Germany shall, however, during the transitional period, retain the power to limit the importation of films having the nationalty of one or more Member States and in respect of which the national censorship authority has granted a certificate more than four years before the date on which the application to import is submitted to the competent authorities.Abolition of import quotas gives the right to import prints, dupes an advertising material without restriction.

30847,"Commission Regulation (EC) No 1478/2005 of 12 September 2005 amending Annexes V, VII and VIII to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3030/93 on common rules for imports of certain textile products from third countries. ,Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3030/93 of 12 October 1993 on common rules for imports of certain textile products from third countries (1), and in particular Articles 8 and 19 thereof,Whereas:(1) On 10 June 2005, the European Commission and the Chinese Ministry of Commerce agreed on a Memorandum of Understanding on the export of certain Chinese textile and clothing products to the European Union. In order to take account of this Memorandum of Understanding the Commission subsequently adopted Regulation (EC) No 1084/2005.(2) It is necessary to clarify the destination of shipments to the Community indicated in footnote 3 of the table shown under (b) in Annex V of Regulation (EEC) No 3030/93, as well as a specific conversion rate for children’s garments for textiles category 4.(3) It is necessary to provide for arrangements for the treatment of goods sent out from the Community to China for Processing Traffic (OPT).(4) These arrangements on OPT should be reflected in Annex VII of Regulation (EEC) No 3030/93.(5) The quantitative limits laid down in the Memorandum of Understanding have been reached for several product categories. As a consequence, a considerable amount of goods are blocked at the Community ports which creates unexpected difficulties for the normal conduct of trade.(6) On 5 September 2005, the European Commission and the Chinese Ministry of Commerce concluded consultations on how to deal with the problems caused by exports of textile and clothing from China in excess of the quantities established in the Memorandum of Understanding. As a result it was agreed to provide for additional quantities for the categories concerned and to introduce certain flexibilities.(7) In order to take into account of the arrangement agreed by the European Commission and the Chinese Ministry of Commerce it is necessary to adjust the quantitative limits for imports of textile and clothing products originating in China for 2005 and 2006 and to provide for certain flexibilities. Regulation (EEC) No 3030/93 should therefore be amended accordingly.(8) In addition, given the particular circumstances of this situation, it is appropriate to provide for additional quantities in order to allow for the release of all textile and clothing products which are currently blocked.(9) In view of the urgency of the matter, the Regulation should enter into force without delay.(10) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Textile Committee set up by Article 17 of Regulation (EEC) No 3030/93,. Regulation (EEC) No 3030/93 is amended as follows:1. Annex V is amended in accordance with Annex I to this Regulation;2. in Annex VII the table is replaced by the table set out in Annex II to this Regulation;3. in Annex VIII the table is replaced by the table set out in Annex III to this Regulation.

The European Community retains the right to reapply quantitative restrictions under certain circumstances.(3)  Imports into the Community of products which were shipped to the Community before 11 June 2005 but presented for free circulation on or after that date shall not be subject to quantitative limits. Import authorisations for such products shall be granted automatically and without quantitative limits by the competent authorities of the Member States, upon adequate proof, such as the bill of lading, and the presentation of a signed declaration by the importer, that the goods have been shipped to the Community before that date. By way of derogation of Article 2(2) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 3030/93, imports of goods shipped before 11 June 2005 shall also be released for free circulation upon the presentation of a surveillance document issued in accordance with Article 10a(2a) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 3030/93.Import authorisations for goods shipped to the Community between 11 June 2005 and 12 July shall be granted automatically and cannot be denied on the grounds that there are no quantities available within the 2005 quantitative limits. However, the import of all products shipped from 11 June 2005 will be counted against the 2005 quantitative limits.The granting of import authorisations will not require the presentation of the corresponding export licenses for goods shipped to the Community before China has put in place its export licensing system (20 July 2005).Applications for import licences for the import, from the date of entry into force of this Regulation, of goods that have been shipped between 11 June 2005 and 19 July 2005 (inclusive) shall be presented to the competent authorities of a Member State no later than 20 September 2005.Goods shipped before 12 July do not need to have been shipped directly to the Community to benefit from the exemption of quantitative limits, although the competent authorities of the Community may deny such benefits if they have reasons to suspect that they have been shipped to another destination before 12 July in order to circumvent this Regulation, in case such transactions do not respond to normal business practices or purely logistical reasons. By way of example, are considered as corresponding to a normal conduct of business goods shipped to distribution centres for the importing companies, or when the importer can present a contract or letter of credit preceding the date of shipment, or when the goods have been transhipped outside China onto another means of transport within a reasonably short period of time.The increases to the agreed levels introduced by the Regulation (EC) No 1478/2005 are made available to enable the issuance of import licences for goods shipped to the Community between 13 and 19 July 2005, or for goods shipped to the Community after 20 July 2005 with a valid Chinese export licence, which are in excess of the agreed levels introduced by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1084/2005 in Annex V to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3030/93.Should any goods shipped to the Community between 13 and 19 July 2005 exceed these levels, the Commission may authorise the issuance of further import licences after informing the Textiles Committee, and after effecting the transfer of 2 072 924 kg of products of category 2 as provided for in Annex VIII.(4)  See Appendix A.’ANNEX IIIn Annex VII to Regulation (EEC) No 3030/93 the table is replaced by the following:‘TABLECOMMUNITY QUANTITATIVE LIMITS FOR GOODS RE-IMPORTED UNDER OPTThird country Category Unit Community quantitative limits2005Belarus GROUP IB4 1 000 pieces 4 7335 1 000 pieces 6 5996 1 000 pieces 8 8007 1 000 pieces 6 6058 1 000 pieces 2 249GROUP IIB12 1 000 pairs 4 44613 1 000 pieces 69715 1 000 pieces 3 85816 1 000 pieces 78621 1 000 pieces 2 56724 1 000 pieces 66126/27 1 000 pieces 3 21529 1 000 pieces 1 30473 1 000 pieces 4 99883 tonnes 664GROUP IIIB74 1 000 pieces 872Serbia (1) GROUP IB5 1 000 pieces6 1 000 pieces7 1 000 pieces8 1 000 piecesGROUP IIB15 1 000 pieces16 1 000 piecesVietnam (2) GROUP IB4 1 000 pieces5 1 000 pieces6 1 000 pieces7 1 000 pieces8 1 000 piecesGROUP IIB12 1 000 pairs13 1 000 pieces15 1 000 pieces18 tonnes21 1 000 pieces26 1 000 pieces31 1 000 pieces68 tonnes76 tonnes78 tonnesThird country Category Unit Specific agreed levels11 June to 31 December 2005 (3) 2006 2007China GROUP IB4 1 000 pieces 208 408 4495 1 000 pieces 453 886 9756 1 000 pieces 1 642 3 216 3 5387 1 000 pieces 439 860 946GROUP IIB26 1 000 pieces 791 1 550 1 70531 1 000 pieces 6 301 12 341 13 575(1)  Quantitative restrictions for Serbia do not apply pursuant to the Agreement between the European Community and Serbia on trade in textile products (OJ L 90, 8.4.2005, p. 36).

36400,"2009/140/EC: Commission Decision of 10 February 2009 on the non-publication of the reference of standard EN 3-9:2006 Portable fire extinguishers — Part 9: Additional requirements to EN 3-7 for pressure resistance of CO 2 extinguishers , in accordance with Directive 97/23/EC concerning pressure equipment (notified under document number C(2009) 666) (Text with EEA relevance). ,Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,Having regard to Directive 97/23/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 May 1997 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States concerning pressure equipment (1), and in particular Article 6 thereof,Having regard to the opinion of the Standing Committee set up in accordance with Article 5 of Directive 98/34/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 June 1998 laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the field of technical standards and regulations and of rules on information society services (2),Whereas:(1) Directive 97/23/EC provides that pressure equipment and assemblies may be placed on the market and put into service only if, when properly installed and maintained and used for their intended purpose, they do not endanger the health and safety of persons and, where appropriate, domestic animals and property.(2) Pressure equipment and assemblies are presumed to meet the essential requirements set out in Annex I to Directive 97/23/EC if they conform to the national standards transposing the harmonised standards the reference numbers of which have been published in the Official Journal of the European Union.(3) Pursuant to Article 6 of Directive 97/23/EC Sweden lodged a formal objection in respect of standard EN 3-9:2006 adopted by the European Committee for Standardisation (CEN) on 2 November 2006 the references of which have not yet been published in the Official Journal of the European Union.(4) Sweden considers that sections 4, 5.1, 5.2, 5.4, 6 and 8 of standard EN 3-9:2006 do not satisfy the essential requirements of Directive 97/23/EC.(5) With regard to section 4 (materials) of EN 3-9:2006, Sweden considers that only general information is given and that it is therefore not possible to provide for technical solutions with regard to the material requirements in point 4 of Annex I to Directive 97/23/EC. The precise choice of material is, in this context, an essential element in order to meet several of the essential safety requirements for pressure equipment in accordance with the relevant requirement of Mandate M/071 to CEN.(6) Section 4 of standard EN 3-9:2006 does not specify the types of materials to be used. The standard only precludes the use of non-metallic materials for bodies of operating devices and it requires that the materials of the components that may be in contact with the contents shall be compatible with both the contents and the material of other components. Therefore, in the absence of concrete technical specifications, section 4 of EN 3-9:2006 can not confer the presumption of conformity to the requirements of point 4 of Annex I to Directive 97/23/EC.(7) With regard to section 5 (design) of standard EN 3-9:2006, and in particular sections 5.1 and 5.2, Sweden is of the opinion that they do not contain technical requirements with regard to the design of CO2 containers for adequate strength as regards pressure containment. Sweden considers that these clauses do not comply with points 2.3 and 2.9 of Annex I to Directive 97/23/EC.(8) Sections 5.1 and 5.2 of standard EN 3-9:2006 do not contain any specific requirements on the design of the cylinder and of the operating device, neither any detailed technical solution to ensure safe filling and discharge. Therefore, they are not sufficient to confer the presumption of conformity to the requirements of safe handling and operation in point 2.3 and of safe filling and discharge in point 2.9 of Annex I to Directive 97/23/EC.(9) Sweden also considers that section 5.4 of standard EN 3-9:2006 does not comply with point 2.11.2 of Annex I to Directive 97/23/EC.(10) Section 5.4 of standard EN 3-9:2006 states that the bursting disc safety device of the extinguisher must be activated when the pressure is between 10 % more than the maximum allowable pressure PS and the test pressure PT. The bursting disc is classified in the standard as a safety accessory. However, the bursting disc is not a typical pressure limiting device but rather a protection device, as it intends to limit damage in case of overfilling or overheating. Furthermore, point 2.11.2 of Annex I to Directive 97/23/EC on pressure limiting devices requires that these devices are so designed that the pressure will not permanently exceed the maximum allowable pressure PS and that only a short-duration surge may exceed PS and even then only 10 %. Therefore, this section can not confer the presumption of conformity to Directive 97/23/EC.(11) In the view of Sweden, section 6 of standard EN 3-9:2006 (manufacturing of the assembled extinguisher) is intended, according to its Annex ZA, to ensure compliance with the requirements of point 2.8 (Assemblies) of Annex I to Directive 97/23/EC. However, point 2.8 of Annex I to that Directive relates rather to the design and not to the manufacturing of the assembled extinguisher.(12) Point 2.8 of Annex I to Directive 97/23/EC contains design requirements for the assemblies, in order to ensure the suitability of the different components, their proper integration and appropriate assembly to an integrated and functional whole. Point 3 of Annex I to that Directive contains detailed requirements relating to manufacturing.(13) Section 6 of standard EN 3-9:2006 does not contain specific requirements with regard to the design. It contains rather general information on both the design and manufacturing, without however being sufficient to confer the presumption of conformity to the requirements of point 2.8 of Annex I to Directive 97/23/EC. Furthermore, as the content of this section does not correspond to the relevant requirements of the Directive, it might create confusion.(14) Finally, Sweden considers that section 8 of standard EN 3-9:2006 does not comply with the requirements of point 3.3 of Annex I to Directive 97/23/EC, as two of the most important parameters, the maximum allowable pressure PS and the maximum allowable temperature (TSmax) are missing.(15) Directive 97/23/EC contains in point 3.3 of Annex I detailed requirements on the marking and labelling of pressure equipment. This includes, for all pressure equipment, information on the essential maximum/minimum allowable limits.(16) Section 8 of standard EN 3-9:2006 contains marking requirements on the maximum allowable pressure PS, but not on the allowable minimum and maximum temperature (TSmin/TSmax). Therefore, it is not sufficient to confer the presumption of conformity to point 3.3 of Annex I to Directive 97/23/EC.(17) In addition, the overall assessment of the structure and the content of standard EN 3-9:2006 is unclear as to whether it addresses the design requirements for the assembly only (portable pressure extinguisher) or also covers the design of the components and the manufacturing phase of the assembly. It is liable to create confusion as to its scope and the relationship between its clauses and the essential requirements of Directive 97/23/EC.(18) Therefore, on the basis of EN 3-9:2006, of the information received in the framework of the consultation of the national authorities, CEN and industry and following assessment of all aspects concerned, it results that harmonised standard EN 3-9:2006 fails to meet the corresponding essential requirements of Directive 97/23/EC.(19) The references of standard EN 3-9:2006 should therefore not be published in the Official Journal of the European Union,. The reference of standard EN 3-9:2006 ‘Portable fire extinguishers — Part 9: Additional requirements to EN 3-7 for pressure resistance of CO2 extinguishers’ shall not be published in the list of standards published in the Official Journal of the European Union.

21233,"Commission Regulation (EC) No 602/2001 of 28 March 2001 amending Regulation (EC) No 1501/95 with regard to the conditions for the payment of export refunds on products falling within CN codes 100190, 1101, 1102 and ex2302. ,Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 of 30 June 1992 on the common organisation of the market in cereals(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1666/2000(2), and in particular Article 13 thereof,Whereas:(1) Article 3 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 800/1999 of 15 April 1999 laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of export refunds on agricultural products(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 90/2001(4), lays down that, when a differentiated refund applies for a specific third country, entitlement to the refund is acquired on importation into that third country. Articles 14, 15 and 16 of that Regulation lay down the conditions for the payment of the refund when a differentiated refund applies and in particular the documents to be presented to prove the arrival of the product at destination.(2) When a differentiated refund applies, Article 18(1) and (2) of Regulation (EC) No 800/1999 lays down that part of the refund, calculated using the lowest refund rate, is be paid on application by the exporter once proof is furnished that the product has left the customs territory of the Community.(3) Council Regulation (EC) No 2851/2000(5) establishes certain concessions in the form of Community tariff quotas for certain agricultural products and provides for an adjustment, as an autonomous and transitional measure, of certain agricultural concessions provided for in the Europe Agreement with the Republic of Poland. One of those concessions is the abolition of refunds for common wheat, flour and bran exported to Poland.(4) Article 7a of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1162/95 of 23 May 1995 laying down special detailed rules for the application of the system of import and export licences for cereals and rice(6), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 409/2001(7), lays down the operators must present to the competent authorities on import into Poland of certain products falling within CN codes 1001 90, 1101, 1102 and ex 2302 certified copies of the export licence and of the relevant export declaration. The export licence includes specific information guaranteeing that no export refund has been granted on the products concerned. The Polish authorities have undertaken to check compliance with Article 7a of Regulation (EC) No 1162/95.(5) Account must therefore be taken of those special arrangements, which entered into force on 1 March 2001, when applying the above provisions of Regulation (EC) No 800/1999 so as not to impose unnecesary costs on exporters trading with third countries. To that end, no acocunt should be taken of the fact that no refund has been fixed for the destination concerned in determining the lowest rate of refund.(6) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1501/95(8), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2513/98(9), lays down certain detailed rules for the application of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 on the granting of export refunds on cereals and the measures to be taken in the event of disturbance on the market for cereals and should therefore be amended to insert the derogations required for Regulation (EC) No 800/1999.(7) This Regulation should enter into force immediately.(8) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,. The following Article 13a is added to Regulation (EC) No 1501/95:""Article 13a1. Where the differentiation of the refund is the result solely of a refund not having been fixed for Poland, and notwithstanding Article 16 of Regulation (EC) No 800/1999, proof that customs formalities for importation have been completed shall not be required for payment of the refund for products falling within CN codes 1001 90, 1101, 1102 and ex 2302.2. The fact that a refund has not been fixed for the export of products falling within CN codes 1001 90, 1101, 1102 and ex 2302 to Poland shall not be taken into account in determining the lowest rate of refund within the meaning of Article 18(2) of Regulation (EC) No 800/1999."" This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.It shall apply to export declarations accepted from 1 March 2001.This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States..

42111,"Commission Implementing Decision of 22 May 2013 derogating from a threshold set in Council Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006 for Union financial assistance in relation to aid measures provided for by Italy for the temporary cessation of fishing activities. ,Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006 of 27 July 2006 on the European Fisheries Fund (1), and in particular Article 24(2) thereof,Whereas:(1) Article 24(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006 provides that the financial contribution from the European Fisheries Fund to certain aid measures for the temporary cessation of fishing activities may not exceed 6 % of the Union financial assistance allocated to the fisheries sector in the Member State concerned. However, according to that Article, the threshold of 6 % may be increased by Commission decision.(2) On 19 October 2012 Italy requested, through the computer system for data exchange, that the threshold be increased to 9 % for aid measures granted by Italy for the temporary cessation of fishing activities.(3) The request submitted by Italy concerns support from the European Fisheries Fund as regards public aid to fishers and owners of fishing vessels for temporary cessation measures adopted on the basis of Article 24(1)(v) of Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006 in the context of management plans adopted at national level within the framework of Union conservation measures which provide for gradual reductions of fishing effort. The national management plans for the Mediterranean fleet of trawlers adopted on 20 May 2011 provide, in accordance with Article 19 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006 of 21 December 2006 concerning management measures for the sustainable exploitation of fishery resources in the Mediterranean Sea (2), for measures imposing gradual reductions of fishing effort.(4) The increase of the threshold from 6 % to 9 % has been requested by Italy, on the basis of past tenders and resulting expenditures, to provide sufficient financial allocations for the call for tenders covering the period running from 2013 to 2015.(5) Considering the situation of crisis of the fleet concerned and the increased number of economic operators ceasing fishing activities in that fleet, Italy has the need to attain and go beyond the overcapacity reduction objectives set out in the operational programme for Community assistance from the European Fisheries Fund in Italy for the programming period 2007-2013, which will be adjusted following the adoption of this Decision.(6) The allocations for temporary cessation of fishing activities under the operational programme for Community assistance from the European Fisheries Fund in Italy for the programming period 2007-2013, as approved by Commission Decision C(2007) 6792 of 19 December 2007, have almost been exhausted and additional allocations for temporary cessation of 8 % pursuant to the provisions of Council Regulation (EC) No 744/2008 (3) are no longer applicable.(7) The financial contribution from the European Fisheries Fund to temporary cessation measures pursuant to Article 24(1)(i) to (vi) of Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006 should therefore be increased to a maximum of 9 % of the Union financial assistance allocated to the fisheries sector in Italy.(8) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the European Fisheries Fund Committee,. For Italy, the threshold of 6 % set in Article 24(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006 for the Union financial contribution to aid measures for the temporary cessation of fishing activities may be exceeded up to 9 % of the Union financial assistance allocated to that Member State by Commission Decision C(2007) 6792 of 19 December 2007, provided that the amount of the Union financial contribution exceeding the 6 % threshold is used exclusively to implement aid measures for the temporary cessation of fishing activities based on Article 24(1)(v) of Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006, in the framework of management plans adopted at national level under Article 19 of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006 for the Mediterranean fleet of trawlers on 20 May 2011..

44417,"Commission Regulation (EU) No 1084/2014 of 15 October 2014 amending Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the use of diphosphates (E 450) as a raising agent and acidity regulator in prepared yeast based doughs  Text with EEA relevance. ,Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 2008 on food additives (1), and in particular Article 10(3),Whereas:(1) Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 lays down a Union list of food additives approved for use in foods and their conditions of use.(2) The Union list of food additives may be updated in accordance with the common procedure referred to in Article 3(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1331/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) either on the initiative of the Commission or following an application.(3) An application for authorisation of the use of diphosphates (E 450) as a raising agent and acidity regulator in prepared yeast doughs was submitted on 7 July 2013 and was made available to the Member States.(4) A raising system based on sodium bicarbonate (E 500), diphosphates (E 450) and yeast is required for fresh doughs that are used as basis for the preparation of pizzas, quiches, tarts and similar products. These doughs should not raise under cooling conditions, but the raising should be activated during the final preparation by the consumer. Sodium bicarbonate is mainly responsible for the raising, while yeast with low raising activities is particularly needed to develop the typical aromatic taste. The diphosphates are required as acidity regulators in order to control the carbon dioxide formation from the sodium bicarbonate.(5) Such a raising system based on sodium bicarbonate, diphosphates and yeast can be used as an alternative to the use of self-raising flour in which higher levels of phosphates are authorised. The authorisation of the use of diphosphates in prepared yeast based doughs will thus not result in an increase of intake of phosphates. It is therefore appropriate to authorise the use of diphosphates as a raising agent and acidity regulator in yeast based doughs used as basis for pizzas, quiches, tarts and similar products.(6) Pursuant to Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1331/2008, the Commission is to seek the opinion of the European Food Safety Authority in order to update the Union list of food additives set out in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008, except where the update in question is not liable to have an effect on human health. Since the authorisation of the use of diphosphates as acidity regulator in yeast based doughs used as basis for pizza's, quiches, tarts and similar products is not considered of safety concern, it is not necessary to seek the opinion of the European Food Safety Authority.(7) Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 should therefore be amended accordingly.(8) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,. Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.

35352,"2008/943/EC: Commission Decision of 12 December 2008 concerning the non-inclusion of bone oil in Annex I to Council Directive 91/414/EEC and the withdrawal of authorisations for plant protection products containing that substance (notified under document number C(2008) 8083) (Text with EEA relevance). ,Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,Having regard to Council Directive 91/414/EEC of 15 July 1991 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (1), and in particular the fourth subparagraph of Article 8(2) thereof,Whereas:(1) Article 8(2) of Directive 91/414/EEC provides that a Member State may, during a period of 12 years following the notification of that Directive, authorise the placing on the market of plant protection products containing active substances not listed in Annex I to that Directive that are already on the market two years after the date of notification, while those substances are gradually being examined within the framework of a programme of work.(2) Commission Regulations (EC) No 1112/2002 (2) and (EC) No 2229/2004 (3) lay down the detailed rules for the implementation of the fourth stage of the programme of work referred to in Article 8(2) of Directive 91/414/EEC and establish a list of active substances to be assessed with a view to their possible inclusion in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC. That list includes bone oil.(3) For bone oil acid the effects on human health and the environment have been assessed in accordance with the provisions laid down in Regulations (EC) No 1112/2002 and (EC) No 2229/2004 for a range of uses proposed by the notifier. Moreover, those Regulations designate the rapporteur Member States which have to submit the relevant assessment reports and recommendations to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) in accordance with Article 20 of Regulation (EC) No 2229/2004. For bone oil the rapporteur Member State was Belgium and all relevant information was submitted in October 2006.(4) The Commission examined bone oil in accordance with Article 24a of Regulation (EC) No 2229/2004. A draft review report for that substance was reviewed by the Member States and the Commission within the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health and finalised on 26 September 2008 in the format of the Commission review report.(5) During the examination of this active substance by the Committee, taking into account comments received from Member States, it was concluded that there are clear indications that it may be expected that it has harmful effects on human health and in particular the crucial missing data does not allow to set reliable acceptable daily intake (ADI) and acute reference dose (ARfD) and such values are necessary to conduct the risk assessment. In addition, the operator exposure is greater than 100 % of the acceptable operator exposure level (AOEL) in all modelled scenarios. Moreover, other concerns which were identified by the rapporteur Member State in its assessment report are included in the review report for the substance.(6) The Commission invited the notifier to submit its comments on the results of the examination of bone oil and on its intention or not to further support the substance. The notifier submitted its comments which have been carefully examined. However, despite the arguments put forward by the notifier, the concerns identified could not be eliminated, and assessments made on the basis of the information submitted have not demonstrated that it may be expected that, under the proposed conditions of use, plant protection products containing bone oil satisfy in general the requirements laid down in Article 5(1)(a) and (b) of Directive 91/414/EEC.(7) Bone oil should therefore not be included in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC.(8) Measures should be taken to ensure that authorisations granted for plant protection products containing bone oil are withdrawn within a fixed period of time and are not renewed and that no new authorisations for such products are granted.(9) Any period of grace granted by a Member State for the disposal, storage, placing on the market and use of existing stocks of plant protection products containing bone oil should be limited to 12 months in order to allow existing stocks to be used in one further growing season, which ensures that plant protection products containing bone oil remain available for 18 months from the adoption of this Decision.(10) This Decision does not prejudice the submission of an application for bone oil in accordance with Article 6(2) of Directive 91/414/EEC and Commission Regulation (EC) No 33/2008 of 17 January 2008 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Directive 91/414/EEC as regards a regular and an accelerated procedure for the assessment of active substances which were part of the programme of work referred to in Article 8(2) of that Directive but have not been included into its Annex I (4), in view of a possible inclusion in its Annex I.(11) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,. Bone oil shall not be included as an active substance in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC. Member States shall ensure that:(a) authorisations for plant protection products containing bone oil are withdrawn by 12 June 2009;(b) no authorisations for plant protection products containing bone oil are granted or renewed from the date of publication of this Decision. Any period of grace granted by Member States in accordance with the provisions of Article 4(6) of Directive 91/414/EEC, shall be as short as possible and shall expire on 12 June 2010 at the latest.
