THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 November 2013 on ship recycling and amending Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 and Directive 2009/16/EC (1), and in particular Article 16 thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Pursuant to Article 16(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013, the Commission is to adopt implementing acts to establish a European List of ship recycling facilities which are located in the Union and have been notified by the Member States in accordance with Article 14(3) of that Regulation and of ship recycling facilities located in a third country and whose inclusion is based on an assessment of the information and supporting evidence provided or gathered in accordance with Article 15 of the same Regulation.

(2)

Member States have notified a total of 18 ship recycling facilities located in the Union as compliant with the relevant requirements of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013. In accordance with Article 16(1)(a) of that Regulation, those facilities should be included in the European List of ship recycling facilities.

(3)

As regards ship recycling facilities located in a third country for which an application for inclusion in the European List has been submitted to the Commission in accordance with Article 15 of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013, the assessment of the relevant information and supporting evidence provided or gathered is still ongoing. The Commission is to adopt implementing acts pertaining to those ship recycling facilities located outside the Union once the assessment is finalised.

(4)

The information to be included in the European List is listed in the second subparagraph of Article 16(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013. In order to reflect those requirements, the European List should be structured in accordance with that provision. Pursuant to Article 16(3) of that Regulation, the European List is to also indicate the date of expiry of the inclusion of the ship recycling facility.

(5)

The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Ship Recycling Regulation Committee established under Article 25 of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
