COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 728/2007

of 25 June 2007

amending Regulation (EC) No 2505/96 opening and providing for the administration of autonomous Community tariff quotas for certain agricultural and industrial products

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas:

(1)

On 20 December 1996, the Council adopted Regulation (EC) No 2505/96 (1). Community demand for the products to which that Regulation applies should be met under the most favourable conditions. For that purpose, new Community tariff quotas should be opened at zero rates of duty for appropriate volumes while avoiding any disturbance to the markets for these products.

(2)

The quota amounts for two autonomous Community tariff quotas are insufficient to meet the needs of the Community industry. Consequently, those quota amounts should be increased.

(3)

It is no longer in the Community interest to continue to grant a Community tariff quota from 1 July 2007 for one product, on which duties have been suspended until that date. The product in question should therefore be removed from the table in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 2505/96.

(4)

Regulation (EC) No 2505/96 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(5)

Having regard to the economic importance of this Regulation, it is necessary to rely on the grounds of urgency provided for in point I.3 of the Protocol on the role of national parliaments in the European Union annexed to the Treaty on European Union and to the Treaties establishing the European Communities.

(6)

Since this Regulation is to apply from 1 July 2007, it should enter into force immediately,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 2505/96 is hereby amended as follows:

1.

the tariff quotas for the products set out in Annex I to this Regulation shall be inserted;

2.

the rows for the tariff quotas with order numbers 09.2603, 09.2727 and 09.2977 shall be replaced by the rows set out in Annex II to this Regulation;

3.

the row for the tariff quota with order number 09.2970 shall be deleted.

Article 2

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

This Regulation shall apply from 1 July 2007.

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

COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 729/2007

of 25 June 2007

amending Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 temporarily suspending the autonomous common customs tariff duties on certain industrial, agricultural and fishery products

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 26 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas:

(1)

It is in the interest of the Community to suspend partially or totally the autonomous common customs tariff duties for a number of new products not listed in the Annex to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 (1).

(2)

A number of products should be withdrawn from the list in the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 because it is no longer in the Community’s interest to maintain suspension of autonomous common customs tariff duties or because the description needs to be altered in order to take account of technical product developments and economic trends on the market.

(3)

Accordingly, products whose description needs to be altered should be regarded as new products.

(4)

The validity period of the measures should be limited in order to enable economic examinations of the individual suspensions in this period to be carried out. Experience has shown the need to provide for an expiry date for the suspensions listed in Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 to ensure that account is taken of technological and economic changes. This should not exclude the premature termination of certain measures or their continuation beyond this period, if economic reasons are submitted, in accordance with the principles laid down in the Commission Communication concerning autonomous tariff suspensions and quotas (2).

(5)

Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(6)

Having regard to the economic importance of this Regulation, it is necessary to rely on the grounds of urgency provided for in point I.3 of the Protocol on the role of national parliaments in the European Union annexed to the Treaty on European Union and to the Treaties establishing the European Communities.

(7)

Since this Regulation is to apply from 1 July 2007, it should enter into force immediately,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1255/96 is hereby amended as follows:

1.

the products listed in Annex I to this Regulation, together with the corresponding rates of duty and validity periods, shall be inserted;

2.

the products for which CN and TARIC codes are set out in Annex II to this Regulation, together with the corresponding rates of duty and validity periods, shall be deleted.

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 July 2007.

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

COMMISSION DECISION

of 21 June 2007

concerning the non-inclusion of certain active substances in Annex I to Council Directive 91/414/EEC and the withdrawal of authorisations for plant protection products containing these substances

(notified under document number C(2007) 2576)

(Text with EEA relevance)

(2007/442/EC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to the 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.

(3)

Regulation (EC) No 2229/2004 provides producers in the Czech Republic, in Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia, with the opportunity to participate in the fourth stage of the programme of work and organises the review of substances which were on the market in those Member States on 30 April 2004 and had not been included in the work programme.

(4)

With respect to certain active substances no producer submitted a notification pursuant to Article 4(1) of Regulation (EC) No 2229/2004. When the Commission informed the Member States of this fact on 18 November 2005, no new Member State notified a declaration of interest within the deadline.

(5)

With respect to certain other active substances all notifiers withdrew their participation in the programme of work. The Commission provided the Member States with this information on 4 April 2006. Only in three cases Member States have chosen to act as notifiers for the purposes of further participation in the programme of work, pursuant to Article 14(3) of Regulation (EC) No 2229/2004.

(6)

For certain active substances no complete dossier has been submitted and no Member State has expressed the will to act as notifier.

(7)

Consequently, the active substances referred to in recitals 4, 5 and 6, should not be included in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC and Member States should withdraw all authorisations for plant protection products containing those active substances.

(8)

For some of those active substances information has been presented and evaluated by the Commission together with Member States’ experts which has shown a need for further use of the substances concerned. It is therefore justified in the present circumstances to extend for certain essential uses for which there are no efficient alternatives the period for the withdrawal of authorisations while providing for strict conditions aimed at minimising any possible risk.

(9)

For the active substances for which there is only a short period of advance notice for the withdrawal of plant protection products containing such substances, it is reasonable to provide for a period of grace for disposal, storage, placing on the market and use of existing stocks no longer than twelve months to allow existing stocks to be used in no more than one further growing. In cases where a longer advance notice period is provided, such period can be shortened to expire at the end of the growing season.

(10)

This decision does not prejudice the submission of an application for these active substances according to the provisions of Article 6(2) of Directive 91/414/EEC 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,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The active substances listed in Annex I to this Decision shall not be included as active substances in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC.

Article 2

Member States shall ensure that:

(a)

authorisations for plant protection products containing the active substances listed in Annex I are withdrawn by 22 December 2007;

(b)

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

Article 3

1.   By way of derogation from Article 2, a Member State listed in column B of Annex II may maintain authorisations for plant protection products containing substances listed in column A of that Annex for the uses listed in column C of that Annex until 30 June 2010, provided that it complies with the following conditions:

(a)

it ensures that no harmful effects to human or animal health and no unacceptable influence to the environment are caused;

(b)

it ensures that such plant protection products remaining on the market are relabelled in order to match the restricted use conditions;

(c)

it imposes all appropriate risk mitigation measures to reduce any possible risks;

(d)

it ensures that alternatives for those uses are seriously sought.

2.   Member States making use of the derogation provided for in paragraph 1, shall inform the Commission about the measures taken under paragraph 1, and, in particular, under points (a) to (d), by 31 December of each year.

Article 4

Any period of grace granted by Member States in accordance with Article 4(6) of Directive 91/414/EEC shall be as short as possible.

For authorisations which are withdrawn in accordance with Article 2, that period shall expire on 22 December 2008 at the latest.

For authorisations which are withdrawn in accordance with Article 3, it shall expire on 31 December 2010 at the latest.

Article 5

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

EFTA SURVEILLANCE AUTHORITY DECISION

No 365/06/COL

of 29 November 2006

amending, for the sixtieth time, the procedural and substantive rules in the field of State aid

THE EFTA SURVEILLANCE AUTHORITY,

HAVING REGARD to the Agreement on the European Economic Area (1), in particular to Articles 61 to 63 and Protocol 26 thereof,

HAVING REGARD to the Agreement between the EFTA States on the establishment of a Surveillance Authority and a Court of Justice (2), in particular to Article 24 and Article 5(2)(b) thereof and Article 1 in Part I of Protocol 3 thereof,

WHEREAS under Article 24 of the Surveillance and Court Agreement, the EFTA Surveillance Authority shall give effect to the provisions of the EEA Agreement concerning State aid,

WHEREAS under Article 5(2)(b) of the Surveillance and Court Agreement the EFTA Surveillance Authority shall issue notices or guidelines on matters dealt with in the EEA Agreement, if that Agreement or the Surveillance and Court Agreement expressly so provides or if the EFTA Surveillance Authority considers it necessary,

RECALLING the Procedural and Substantive Rules in the Field of State Aid (3) adopted on 19 January 1994 by the EFTA Surveillance Authority (4),

WHEREAS, on 24 October 2006, the Commission of the European Communities decided to prolong the Framework on State Aid to Shipbuilding until 31 December 2008  (5),

WHEREAS this Communication is also of relevance for the European Economic Area,

WHEREAS a uniform application of the EEA State aid rules is to be ensured throughout the European Economic Area,

WHEREAS, according to point II under the heading ‘GENERAL’ at the end of Annex XV to the EEA Agreement, the EFTA Surveillance Authority is to adopt, after consultation with the Commission, acts corresponding to those adopted by the European Commission,

HAVING consulted the European Commission,

RECALLING that the EFTA Surveillance Authority has consulted the EFTA States in a letter on the subject dated 27 October 2006,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

1.

The validity of Chapter 24B of the State Aid Guidelines, State aid to shipbuilding, is prolonged until 31 December 2008. The former Paragraph 31 in Section 24B.7 of Chapter 24B of the State Aid Guidelines is replaced by a new Paragraph 31 which shall read as follows:

‘This Framework will be applicable from 1 January 2004 until 31 December 2008 at the latest. It may be reviewed by the Authority during this period.’

2.

Footnote 1 to Chapter 24B of the State Aid Guidelines shall read as follows:

‘This Chapter corresponds to Community Framework on State Aid to Shipbuilding (OJ C 317, 30.12.2003, p. 11), as amended by the Commission on 24 October 2006 (OJ C 260, 28.10.2006, p. 7).’

3.

Since Council Regulation (EC) No 1177/2002 of 27 June 2002 concerning a temporary defensive mechanism to shipbuilding (6) expired on 31 March 2005, the references in Chapter 24B of the State Aid Guideline to that Regulation are no longer relevant. Accordingly, point 9 and point 12(e) of Chapter 24B will no longer be applied by the Authority with effect from 1 January 2007.

4.

The EFTA States shall be informed by means of a letter, including a copy of this Decision.

5.

The European Commission shall be informed, in accordance with point (d) of Protocol 27 of the EEA Agreement, by means of a copy of this Decision.

6.

The Decision shall be published in the EEA Section of and in the EEA Supplement to the Official Journal of the European Union.
