COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 782/2007
of 3 July 2007
amending Regulation (EC) No 634/2006 laying down the marketing standard applicable to headed cabbages
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2200/96 of 28 October 1996 on the common organisation of the market in fruit and vegetables (1), and in particular Article 2(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
The provisions on labelling in the marketing standard for headed cabbages laid down in Commission Regulation (EC) No 634/2006 (2) provide for the compulsory indication of the number of units on the package. |
(2) |
To facilitate trade and given the fact that headed cabbages are generally sold by weight and not by number of units, that requirement should be abolished. |
(3) |
Regulation (EC) No 634/2006 should therefore be amended accordingly. |
(4) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fresh Fruit and Vegetables, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The second indent of point 6.1.D of the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 634/2006 is hereby deleted.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

COMMISSION DECISION
of 25 June 2007
amending Decision 2006/504/EC on special conditions governing certain foodstuffs imported from certain third countries due to contamination risks of these products by aflatoxins
(notified under document number C(2007) 3020)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2007/459/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 28 January 2002 laying down the general principles and requirements of food law, establishing the European Food Safety Authority and laying down procedures in matters of food safety (1), and in particular Article 53(1)(b)(ii) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Commission Decision 2006/504/EC (2) establishes special conditions governing certain foodstuffs imported from certain third countries due to contamination risks of these products by aflatoxins. |
(2) |
The application of Decision 2006/504/EC has revealed that certain amendments are necessary. The list of designated points of import through which the products covered by that Decision may be imported into the Community should be updated, particularly in the framework of the accession of Bulgaria and Romania to the European Union. |
(3) |
For the protection of public health it is important that compound foodstuffs containing to a significant amount the foodstuffs covered by this Decision are also within the scope of this Decision. A threshold of 10 % is established. Competent authorities may control at random for the presence of aflatoxins compound foodstuffs containing less than 10 % of foodstuffs covered by this Decision. In case monitoring data indicate that compound foodstuffs containing less than 10 % of foodstuffs covered by this Decision have been found in several cases to be non-compliant with the EU legislation on maximum levels for aflatoxins, this threshold should be reviewed. |
(4) |
Decision 2006/504/EC provides that Member State may only permit imports of certain foodstuffs where the consignment is accompanied by, inter alia, a health certificate. That requirement applies from 1 October 2006. In order to avoid differences in the implementation of that Decision, it appears necessary to clarify that the requirement regarding the health certificate relates to the consignments which left the country of origin from 1 October 2006 onwards. |
(5) |
Moreover, the model health certificate set out in that Decision should be amended by a separation of the health certificate to be completed by the competent authorities of the country of origin of the foodstuffs covered by Commission Decision 2006/504/EC from the information to be provided by the competent authorities of the Member States. Furthermore the common document containing the information on the checks performed has to be amended to provide also for the situation where the competent authority at the point of introduction into the Community is different from the competent authority at the designated point of import, or where a physical check is not mandatory. |
(6) |
Commission Decision 2006/504/EC should therefore be amended accordingly. |
(7) |
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
Decision 2006/504/EC is amended as follows:
1. |
Article 1 is replaced by the following: ‘Article 1 Scope This Decision shall apply to the foodstuffs referred to in points (a) to (e) and to processed and compound foodstuffs derived from or containing a significant amount of the foodstuffs referred to in points (b) to (e). However, it shall not apply to consignments of foodstuffs with a gross weight not exceeding 5 kg. Foodstuffs shall be considered as containing a significant amount of the foodstuffs referred to in points (b) to (e), where they are present therein in a quantity of at least 10 %.
|
2. |
In Article 3:
|
3. |
in Article 5:
|
4. |
Article 8, paragraph 2 is replaced by the following: ‘2. All costs related to official measures taken by the competent authorities as regards non-compliance of consignments of foodstuffs referred to in Article 1(a) to (e) and to processed and compound foodstuffs derived from or containing the foodstuffs referred to in these points shall be borne by the food business operator responsible for the consignment or its representative.’. |
5. |
The following Article 10a is inserted: ‘Article 10a Transitional provisions By way of derogation from Article 3(1), Member States shall authorise the imports of consignments which left the country of origin prior to 1 October 2006, accompanied by a health certificate as provided for by Commission Decision 2000/49/EC (*1) as regards foodstuffs from Egypt, Commission Decision 2002/79/EC (*2) as regards foodstuffs from China, Commission Decision 2002/80/EC (*3) as regards foodstuffs from Turkey, Commission Decision 2003/493/EC (*4) as regards foodstuffs from Brazil and Commission Decision 2005/85/EC (*5) as regards foodstuffs from Iran. (*1) OJ L 19, 25.1.2000, p. 46." (*2) OJ L 34, 5.2.2002, p. 21." (*3) OJ L 34, 5.2.2002, p. 26." |
6. |
Annex I is replaced by the text in Annex I to this Decision. |
7. |
Annex II is replaced by the text in Annex II to this Decision. |
8. |
The text in Annex III to this Decision is added as Annex III. |
Article 2
This Decision shall apply from 1 July 2007.
However, Article 1(5) shall apply from 1 October 2006 and Article 1(7) shall apply from 1 January 2007.
Article 3
