COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 605/2007

of 1 June 2007

laying down transitional measures for certain import and export licenses for trade in agricultural products between the Community as constituted on 31 December 2006 and Bulgaria and Romania

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty of Accession of Bulgaria and Romania,

Having regard to the Act of Accession of Bulgaria and Romania, and in particular of Article 41 thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Until 31 December 2006, trade in agricultural products between the Community and Bulgaria and Romania was subject to the presentation of an import or export license. As of 1 January 2007, those licenses could no longer be used for such trade.

(2)

Certain licenses which are still valid after 1 January 2007 have not been used at all or have been used only partially. Commitments entered into in connection with those licenses must be fulfilled failing which the security lodged would be forfeited. Given that such commitments can no longer be fulfilled after the accession of Bulgaria and Romania, it appears necessary to lay down, with effect from the date of accession of those two countries, a transitory measure providing for the release of the securities lodged.

(3)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the all the Management Committees concerned,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

At the request of the interested parties, the securities lodged for the issuing of import and export licenses and advance-fixing certificates, shall be released, under the following conditions:

(a)

the country of destination, origin or provenance marked in the licenses or certificates is Bulgaria or Romania;

(b)

the validity of the licenses or certificates has not expired before 1 January 2007;

(c)

the licenses or certificates have been used only partially or not at all by 1 January 2007.

Article 2

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 January 2007.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 980/2005 of 27 June 2005 applying a scheme of generalised tariff preferences (1), and in particular Article 26 thereof,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

ANNEX

‘ANNEX II

List of products included in the arrangements referred to in Article 1(2)(a) and (b)

Notwithstanding the rules for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, the description of the products is to be considered as indicative, the tariff preferences being determined by the CN codes. Where “ex” CN codes are indicated, the tariff preferences are to be determined by the CN code and the description, together.

Entry of products of a CN code marked with an asterisk is subject to the conditions laid down in the relevant Community provisions.

The column “Sensitive/non-sensitive” refers to the products included in the general arrangement (Article 7) and in the special incentive arrangement for sustainable development and good governance (Article 8). These products are listed as being either NS (non-sensitive, for the purposes of Article 7(1)) or S (sensitive, for the purposes of Article 7(2)).

For reasons of simplification, the products are listed in groups. These may include products for which Common Customs Tariff duties are exempted or suspended.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 607/2007

of 1 June 2007

on the division between ‘deliveries’ and ‘direct sales’ of national reference quantities fixed for 2006/2007 in Annex I to Council Regulation (EC) No 1788/2003

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1788/2003 of 29 September 2003 establishing a levy in the milk and milk products sector (1), and in particular Article 8 thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 1788/2003 provides that the Member States are to establish the producers’ individual reference quantities. Producers may have one or two individual reference quantities, one for deliveries and the other for direct sales and these quantities may be converted from one reference quantity to the other at the duly justified request of the producer.

(2)

Commission Regulation (EC) No 832/2006 of 2 June 2006 on the division between ‘deliveries’ and ‘direct sales’ of national reference quantities fixed for 2005/2006 in Annex I to Council Regulation (EC) No 1788/2003 (2) sets out the division between ‘deliveries’ and ‘direct sales’ for the period from 1 April 2005 to 31 March 2006 for Belgium, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Germany, Estonia, Ireland, Greece, Spain, France, Italy, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Hungary, Malta, the Netherlands, Austria, Poland, Portugal, Slovenia, Slovakia, Finland, Sweden and the United Kingdom.

(3)

In accordance with Article 25(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 595/2004 of 30 March 2004 laying down detailed rules for applying Council Regulation (EC) No 1788/2003 establishing a levy in the milk and milk products sector (3), Belgium, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Germany, Estonia, Ireland, Greece, Spain, France, Italy, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Hungary, the Netherlands, Austria, Poland, Portugal, Slovenia, Slovakia, Finland, Sweden and the United Kingdom have notified the quantities which have been definitively converted at the request of the producers between individual reference quantities for deliveries and for direct sales.

(4)

In accordance with Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1788/2003 the total national reference quantities for Belgium, Denmark, Germany, France, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Austria, Portugal, Finland, Sweden and the United Kingdom for 2006/2007 are greater than their total national reference quantities for 2005/2006, and these Member States have notified the Commission of the division between ‘deliveries’ and ‘direct sales’ of the additional reference quantities.

(5)

In accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No 927/2006 of 22 June 2006 on the release of the special restructuring reserve provided for in Article 1(4) of Council Regulation (EC) No 1788/2003 (4), the additional reference quantities released with effect from 1 April 2006 for the Czech Republic, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia are allocated to ‘deliveries’ in the respective national reference quantities.

(6)

It is therefore appropriate to establish the division between ‘deliveries’ and ‘direct sales’ of the national reference quantities applicable for the period from 1 April 2006 to 31 March 2007 fixed in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1788/2003.

(7)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 of 20 December 2002 on the conservation and sustainable exploitation of fisheries resources under the Common Fisheries Policy (1), and in particular Article 23(4) thereof,

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 610/2007

of 1 June 2007

amending Regulation (EC) No 1725/2003 adopting certain international accounting standards in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee’s (IFRIC) Interpretation 10

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 July 2002 on the application of international accounting standards (1), and in particular Article 3(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

By Commission Regulation (EC) No 1725/2003 (2) certain international standards and interpretations that were extant at 14 September 2002 were adopted.

(2)

On 20 July 2006, the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) published IFRIC Interpretation 10 Interim Financial Reporting and Impairment, hereinafter ‘IFRIC 10’. IFRIC 10 clarifies that impairment losses on goodwill and certain financial assets (‘available for sale’ equity investments and unquoted equity instruments measured at cost) that are recognised in an interim financial statement must not be reversed in subsequent interim or annual financial statements. The interpretation was required due to an apparent conflict between the requirements of International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 Interim Financial Reporting and those in IAS 36 Impairment of assets, and the impairment provisions related to certain financial assets in IAS 39 Financial instruments: Recognition and measurement.

(3)

The consultation with the Technical Expert Group (TEG) of the European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG) confirms that IFRIC 10 meets the technical criteria for adoption set out in Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002.

(4)

Regulation (EC) No 1725/2003 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(5)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Accounting Regulatory Committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

In the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1725/2003, ‘International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee’s (IFRIC) Interpretation 10 Interim Financial Reporting and Impairment’, is inserted as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.

Article 2

Each company shall apply IFRIC 10 as set out in the Annex to this Regulation as from the commencement date of its 2007 financial year at the latest, except for companies with a November or December commencement date which shall apply IFRIC 10 as from the commencement date of the 2006 financial year at the latest.

Article 3

This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 1 June 2007.

IFRIC INTERPRETATION 10

Interim Financial Reporting and Impairment

References

IAS 34 Interim financial reporting

IAS 36 Impairment of assets

IAS 39 Financial instruments: recognition and measurement

Background

1.

An entity is required to assess goodwill for impairment at every reporting date, to assess investments in equity instruments and in financial assets carried at cost for impairment at every balance sheet date and, if required, to recognise an impairment loss at that date in accordance with IAS 36 and IAS 39. However, at a subsequent reporting or balance sheet date, conditions may have so changed that the impairment loss would have been reduced or avoided had the impairment assessment been made only at that date. This Interpretation provides guidance on whether such impairment losses should ever be reversed.

2.

The Interpretation addresses the interaction between the requirements of IAS 34 and the recognition of impairment losses on goodwill in IAS 36 and certain financial assets in IAS 39, and the effect of that interaction on subsequent interim and annual financial statements.

Issue

3.

IAS 34 paragraph 28 requires an entity to apply the same accounting policies in its interim financial statements as are applied in its annual financial statements. It also states that ‘the frequency of an entity’s reporting (annual, half yearly, or quarterly) shall not affect the measurement of its annual results. To achieve that objective, measurements for interim reporting purposes shall be made on a year-to-date basis’.

4.

IAS 36 paragraph 124 states that ‘An impairment loss recognised for goodwill shall not be reversed in a subsequent period’.

5.

IAS 39 paragraph 69 states that ‘Impairment losses recognised in profit or loss for an investment in an equity instrument classified as available for sale shall not be reversed through profit or loss’.

6.

IAS 39 paragraph 66 requires that impairment losses for financial assets carried at cost (such as an impairment loss on an unquoted equity instrument that is not carried at fair value because its fair value cannot be reliably measured) should not be reversed.

7.

The Interpretation addresses the following issue:

Should an entity reverse impairment losses recognised in an interim period on goodwill and investments in equity instruments and in financial assets carried at cost if a loss would not have been recognised, or a smaller loss would have been recognised, had an impairment assessment been made only at a subsequent balance sheet date?

Consensus

8.

An entity shall not reverse an impairment loss recognised in a previous interim period in respect of goodwill or an investment in either an equity instrument or a financial asset carried at cost.

9.

An entity shall not extend this consensus by analogy to other areas of potential conflict between IAS 34 and other standards.

Effective date and transition

10.

An entity shall apply the Interpretation for annual periods beginning on or after 1 November 2006. Earlier application is encouraged. If an entity applies the Interpretation for a period beginning before 1 November 2006, it shall disclose that fact. An entity shall apply the Interpretation to goodwill prospectively from the date at which it first applied IAS 36; it shall apply the Interpretation to investments in equity instruments or in financial assets carried at cost prospectively from the date at which it first applied the measurement criteria of IAS 39.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 611/2007

of 1 June 2007

amending Regulation (EC) No 1725/2003 adopting certain international accounting standards in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee’s (IFRIC) Interpretation 11

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 July 2002 on the application of international accounting standards (1), and in particular Article 3(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

By Commission Regulation (EC) No 1725/2003 (2) certain international standards and interpretations that were extant at 14 September 2002 were adopted.

(2)

On 2 November 2006, the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) published IFRIC Interpretation 11 IFRS 2 — Group and Treasury Share Transactions, hereinafter ‘IFRIC 11’. IFRIC 11 addresses how to apply International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 2 Share-based Payment to share-based payment arrangements involving an entity’s own equity instruments or equity instruments of another entity in the same group (e.g. equity instruments of its parent). The interpretation was required as, until now, there was no guidance on how share-based payment arrangements in which an entity receives goods or services as consideration for equity instruments of the entity’s parent should be accounted for in the entity’s financial statements.

(3)

The consultation with the Technical Expert Group (TEG) of the European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG) confirms that IFRIC 11 meets the technical criteria for adoption set out in Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002.

(4)

Regulation (EC) No 1725/2003 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(5)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Accounting Regulatory Committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

In the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1725/2003: ‘International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee’s (IFRIC) Interpretation 11 IFRS 2Group and Treasury Share Transactions’, is inserted as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.

Article 2

Each company shall apply IFRIC 11 as set out in the Annex to this Regulation as from the commencement date of its 2008 financial year at the latest, except for companies with a January or February commencement date which shall apply IFRIC 11 as from the commencement date of the 2009 financial year at the latest.

Article 3

This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 1 June 2007.

IFRIC INTERPRETATION 11

IFRS 2 — Group and Treasury Share Transactions

References

IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors

IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation

IFRS 2 Share-based Payment

Issues

1.

This Interpretation addresses two issues. The first is whether the following transactions should be accounted for as equity-settled or as cash-settled under the requirements of IFRS 2:

(a)

an entity grants to its employees rights to equity instruments of the entity (e.g. share options), and either chooses or is required to buy equity instruments (i.e. treasury shares) from another party, to satisfy its obligations to its employees; and

(b)

an entity’s employees are granted rights to equity instruments of the entity (e.g. share options), either by the entity itself or by its shareholders, and the shareholders of the entity provide the equity instruments needed.

2.

The second issue concerns share-based payment arrangements that involve two or more entities within the same group. For example, employees of a subsidiary are granted rights to equity instruments of its parent as consideration for the services provided to the subsidiary. IFRS 2 paragraph 3 states that:

For the purposes of this IFRS, transfers of an entity’s equity instruments by its shareholders to parties that have supplied goods or services to the entity (including employees) are share-based payment transactions, unless the transfer is clearly for a purpose other than payment for goods or services supplied to the entity. This also applies to transfers of equity instruments of the entity’s parent, or equity instruments of another entity in the same group as the entity, to parties that have supplied goods or services to the entity. [Emphasis added]

However, IFRS 2 does not give guidance on how to account for such transactions in the individual or separate financial statements of each group entity.

3.

Therefore, the second issue addresses the following share-based payment arrangements:

(a)

a parent grants rights to its equity instruments direct to the employees of its subsidiary: the parent (not the subsidiary) has the obligation to provide the employees of the subsidiary with the equity instruments needed; and

(b)

a subsidiary grants rights to equity instruments of its parent to its employees: the subsidiary has the obligation to provide its employees with the equity instruments needed.

4.

This Interpretation addresses how the share-based payment arrangements set out in paragraph 3 should be accounted for in the financial statements of the subsidiary that receives services from the employees.

5.

There may be an arrangement between a parent and its subsidiary requiring the subsidiary to pay the parent for the provision of the equity instruments to the employees. This Interpretation does not address how to account for such an intragroup payment arrangement.

6.

Although this Interpretation focuses on transactions with employees, it also applies to similar share-based payment transactions with suppliers of goods or services other than employees.

Consensus

Share-based payment arrangements involving an entity’s own equity instruments (paragraph 1)

7.

Share-based payment transactions in which an entity receives services as consideration for its own equity instruments shall be accounted for as equity-settled. This applies regardless of whether the entity chooses or is required to buy those equity instruments from another party to satisfy its obligations to its employees under the share-based payment arrangement. It also applies regardless of whether:

(a)

the employee’s rights to the entity’s equity instruments were granted by the entity itself or by its shareholder(s); or

(b)

the share-based payment arrangement was settled by the entity itself or by its shareholder(s).

Share-based payment arrangements involving equity instruments of the parent

A parent grants rights to its equity instruments to the employees of its subsidiary (paragraph 3(a))

8.

Provided that the share-based arrangement is accounted for as equity-settled in the consolidated financial statements of the parent, the subsidiary shall measure the services received from its employees in accordance with the requirements applicable to equity-settled share-based payment transactions, with a corresponding increase recognised in equity as a contribution from the parent.

9.

A parent may grant rights to its equity instruments to the employees of its subsidiaries, conditional upon the completion of continuing service with the group for a specified period. An employee of one subsidiary may transfer employment to another subsidiary during the specified vesting period without the employee’s rights to equity instruments of the parent under the original share-based payment arrangement being affected. Each subsidiary shall measure the services received from the employee by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date those rights to equity instruments were originally granted by the parent as defined in IFRS 2 Appendix A, and the proportion of the vesting period served by the employee with each subsidiary.

10.

Such an employee, after transferring between group entities, may fail to satisfy a vesting condition other than a market condition as defined in IFRS 2 Appendix A, e.g. the employee leaves the group before completing the service period. In this case, each subsidiary shall adjust the amount previously recognised in respect of the services received from the employee in accordance with the principles in IFRS 2 paragraph 19. Hence, if the rights to the equity instruments granted by the parent do not vest because of an employee’s failure to meet a vesting condition other than a market condition, no amount is recognised on a cumulative basis for the services received from that employee in the financial statements of any subsidiary.

A subsidiary grants rights to equity instruments of its parent to its employees (paragraph 3(b))

11.

The subsidiary shall account for the transaction with its employees as cash-settled. This requirement applies irrespective of how the subsidiary obtains the equity instruments to satisfy its obligations to its employees.

Effective date

12.

An entity shall apply this Interpretation for annual periods beginning on or after 1 March 2007. Earlier application is permitted. If an entity applies this Interpretation for a period beginning before 1 March 2007, it shall disclose that fact.

Transition

13.

An entity shall apply this Interpretation retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8, subject to the transitional provisions of IFRS 2.

amending Annex VI to Council Directive 96/48/EC on the interoperability of the trans-European high-speed rail system and Annex VI to Directive 2001/16/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the interoperability of the trans-European conventional rail system

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Directive 96/48/EC of 23 July 1996 of the Council on the interoperability of the trans-European high speed rail system (1), and in particular Article 21c thereof,

Having regard to Directive 2001/16/EC of 19 March 2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the interoperability of the conventional rail system (2), and in particular Article 21b thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

In accordance with Article 18 of Directive 96/48/EC and with Article 18 of Directive 2001/16/EC, the contracting entity or its official representative shall invite the notified body that it has selected for that purpose to apply the ‘EC’ verification procedure referred to in Annex VI of those Directives.

(2)

On the basis of the certificate of conformity issued by the notified body and of the technical file accompanying the certificate, the contracting entity or its official representative draws up an ‘EC’ declaration of verification.

(3)

Point 2 of Annex VI to Directive 96/48/EC and point 2 of Annex VI to Directive 2001/16/EC stipulate that the subsystem is checked at each of the following stages: overall design; structure of the subsystem, including, in particular, civil engineering activities, constituent assembly, overall adjustment; and final testing of the subsystem.

(4)

The current concept of ‘final testing of the subsystem’ is not sufficiently clear and precise. It consists of checking that the subsystem is in conformity with the provisions of Directives 96/48/EC and 2001/16/EC and with the other applicable regulatory provisions and that it can be placed into service, in particular by checking the interfaces with the other subsystems in operational conditions.

(5)

However, there are tests which the manufacturer can carry out on the isolated interoperability constituent (IC) or subsystem, independently of the final environment in which the IC or subsystem will be installed and will be exploited. These ‘stand alone’ tests, useful and final, are independent of the rail network on which the product will be put into service.

(6)

It is therefore necessary to provide in Annex VI to both Directives 96/48/EC and 2001/16/EC the possibility for the manufacturer to apply for first step (design or production phase) assessments, which will lead to Intermediate Statements of Verification (ISV) issued by the notified body. On the basis of those ISV, the main contractor or the manufacturer will be able to draw up an ‘EC declaration of intermediate IC or subsystem conformity’ for the relevant phase.

(7)

Directives 96/48/EC and 2001/16/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.

(8)

The measures provided for in this Directive are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee set up by Article 21 of Council Directive 96/48/EC,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

Article 1

Annex VI to Directive 96/48/EC is replaced by the text in the Annex to this Directive.

Article 2

Annex VI to Directive 2001/16/EC is replaced by the text in the Annex to this Directive.

Article 3

Member States shall bring into force the laws, regulations and administrative provisions needed to comply with this Directive before 2 December 2007. They shall forthwith inform the Commission thereof.

When Member States adopt these measures, they shall contain a reference to this Directive or be accompanied by such reference on the occasion of their official publication. The methods of making such reference shall be laid down by the Member States.

Article 4

This Directive shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

Article 5

This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

Done at Brussels, 1 June 2007.

ANNEX

‘ANNEX VI

VERIFICATION PROCEDURE FOR SUBSYSTEMS

1.   INTRODUCTION

“EC” verification is the procedure whereby a notified body checks and certifies that a subsystem:

complies with the Directive

complies with the other regulations deriving from the Treaty, and may be put into operation.

2.   STAGES

The subsystem is checked at each of the following stages:

overall design,

production: construction of subsystem, including, for example civil-engineering activities, manufacturing, constituent assembly, overall adjustment,

final testing of the subsystem.

For the design phase (including the type tests) and for the production phase the main contractor (or the manufacturer) or its authorised representative established within the Community may apply for an assessment as a first step.

In this case, this (these) assessment(s) lead to intermediate statement verification(s) (ISV) issued by the Notified Body chosen by the main contractor (or the manufacturer). This one in turn draws up an “EC declaration of intermediate subsystem conformity” for the relevant phase(s).

3.   CERTIFICATE

The Notified Body responsible for the “EC” verification draws up the certificate of verification intended for the contracting entity or its authorised representative established within the Community, which in turn draws up the “EC” declaration of verification intended for the supervisory authority in the Member State in which the subsystem is located and/or operates.

The Notified Body responsible for “EC” verification assesses the design and production of the subsystem.

If available, the Notified Body takes into account the “Intermediate Statements of Verification” (ISV(s)), and, in order to issue the “EC” certificate of verification, it:

Checks that the subsystem:

is covered by relevant design and production ISVs delivered to the main contractor (or the manufacturer) if it has asked the Notified Body for these two phases,

or corresponds as produced to all aspects covered by the design ISV delivered to the main contractor (or the manufacturer) if it has asked the Notified Body only for the design phase,

Verifies that they cover correctly the requirement of the TSI and assesses the design and production elements that are not covered by the design and/or production ISV(s) delivered to the main contractor (or the manufacturer).

4.   TECHNICAL FILE

The technical file accompanying the declaration of verification must be made up as follows:

for the infrastructure: engineering-structure plans, approval records for excavations and reinforcement, testing and inspection reports on concrete, etc.,

for the other subsystems: general and detailed drawings in line with execution, electrical and hydraulic diagrams, control-circuit diagrams, description of data-processing and automatic systems, operating and maintenance manuals, etc.,

list of interoperability constituents, as referred to in Article 3, incorporated into the subsystem,

copies of the “EC” declarations of conformity or suitability for use with which the above mentioned constituents must be provided in accordance with Article 13 of the Directive accompanied, where appropriate, by the corresponding calculation notes and a copy of the records of the tests and examinations carried out by the notified bodies on the basis of the common technical specifications,

if available, the intermediate statement(s) of verification (ISV) and, in such a case, the “EC” declaration(s) of intermediate subsystem conformity, that accompany the “EC” certificate of verification, including the result of verification by the Notified Body of their validity,

certificate from the Notified Body responsible for “EC” verification, accompanied by corresponding calculation notes and countersigned by itself, stating that the project complies with this Directive and mentioning any reservations recorded during performance of the activities and not withdrawn; the certificate should also be accompanied by the inspection and audit reports drawn up by the same body in connection with its task, as specified in sections 5.3 and 5.4.

5.   MONITORING

5.1.

The aim of “EC” monitoring is to ensure that the obligations deriving from the technical file have been met during production of the subsystem.

5.2.

The Notified Body responsible for checking production must have permanent access to building sites, production workshops, storage areas and, where appropriate, prefabrication or testing facilities and, more generally, to all premises which it considers necessary for its task. The contracting entity or its authorised representative within the Community must send it or have sent to it all the documents needed for that purpose and, in particular, the implementation plans and technical documentation concerning the subsystem.

5.3.

The Notified Body responsible for checking implementation must periodically carry out audits in order to confirm compliance with the Directive. It must provide those responsible for implementation with an audit report. It may require to be present at certain stages of the building operations.

5.4.

In addition, the Notified Body may pay unexpected visits to the worksite or to the production workshops. At the time of such visits the Notified Body may conduct complete or partial audits. It must provide those responsible for implementation with an inspection report and, if appropriate, an audit report.

6.   SUBMISSION

The complete file referred to in paragraph 4 must be lodged with the contracting entity or its authorised agent established within the Community in support of the certificate of verification issued by the Notified Body responsible for verification of the subsystem in working order. The file must be attached to the “EC” declaration of verification which the contracting entity sends to the supervisory authority in the Member State concerned.

A copy of the file must be kept by the contracting entity throughout the service life of the subsystem. It must be sent to any other Member States which so request.

7.   PUBLICATION

Each Notified Body must periodically publish relevant information concerning:

requests for “EC” verification received;

intermediate statements of verification (ISVs) issued or refused;

certificates of verification issued or refused.

8.   LANGUAGE

The files and correspondence relating to the “EC” verification procedures must be written in an official language of the Member State in which the contracting entity or its authorised representative within the Community is established or in a language accepted by the entity.’

COMMISSION DECISION

of 25 May 2007

concerning the non-inclusion of fenitrothion 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(2007) 2164)

(Text with EEA relevance)

(2007/379/EC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

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 of 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 451/2000 (2) and (EC) No 703/2001 (3) lay down the detailed rules for the implementation of the second 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 fenitrothion.

(3)

For fenitrothion the effects on human health and the environment have been assessed in accordance with the provisions laid down in Regulations (EC) No 451/2000 and (EC) No 703/2001 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 8(1) of Regulation (EC) No 451/2000. For fenitrothion the rapporteur Member State was United Kingdom and all relevant information was submitted on 4 November 2003.

(4)

The assessment report has been peer reviewed by the Member States and the EFSA within its Working Group Evaluation and presented to the Commission on 13 January 2006 in the format of the EFSA conclusion regarding the peer review of the pesticide risk assessment of the active substance fenitrothion (4). This report has been reviewed by the Member States and the Commission within the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health and finalised on 14 July 2006 in the format of the Commission review report for fenitrothion.

(5)

During the evaluation of this active substance, a number of concerns were identified. Based on the available information it has not been demonstrated that the estimated exposure of operators and workers is acceptable. Moreover, the estimated acute exposure of consumers cannot be regarded acceptable due to the insufficient information on the effects of certain degradation products that may be present in raw or processed commodities, and so it was not possible to conclude on the basis of the information available that fentrothion met the criteria for inclusion in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC.

(6)

The Commission invited the notifier to submit its comments on the results of the peer review 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 and evaluated during the EFSA expert meetings have not demonstrated that it may be expected that, under the proposed conditions of use, plant protection products containing fenitrothion satisfy in general the requirements laid down in Article 5(1)(a) and (b) of Directive 91/414/EEC.

(7)

Fenitrothion 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 fenitrothion 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 fenitrothion, should be limited to twelve months in order to allow existing stocks to be used in one further growing season.

(10)

This decision does not prejudice any action the Commission may undertake at a later stage for this active substance within the framework of Council Directive 79/117/EEC of 21 December 1978 prohibiting the placing on the market and use of plant protection products containing certain active substances (5).

(11)

This decision does not prejudice the submission of an application for fenitrothion according to the provisions of Article 6(2) of Directive 91/414/EEC in view of a possible inclusion in its Annex I.

(12)

The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

Fenitrothion shall not be included as an active substance in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC.

Article 2

Member States shall ensure that:

(a)

authorisations for plant protection products containing fenitrothion are withdrawn by 25 November 2007;

(b)

no authorisations for plant protection products containing fenitrothion are granted or renewed from the date of publication of this Decision.

Article 3

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 25 November 2008 at the latest.

Article 4

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

Done at Brussels, 25 May 2007.
