COUNCIL DIRECTIVE 2010/88/EU
of 7 December 2010
amending Directive 2006/112/EC on the common system of value added tax, with regard to the duration of the obligation to respect a minimum standard rate
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 113 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
After transmission of the draft legislative act to the national Parliaments,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee,
Acting in accordance with a special legislative procedure,
Whereas:
(1) |
Article 97(1) of Council Directive 2006/112/EC (1) provides that from 1 January 2006 until 31 December 2010, the standard rate may not be less than 15 %. |
(2) |
The standard rate of value added tax (VAT) currently in force in various Member States, combined with the mechanism of the transitional system has ensured that this system has functioned to an acceptable degree. With new rules on the place of supply of services which favour taxation at the place of consumption, the possibilities for exploiting differences in VAT rates through relocation have been limited further and potential distortions of competition reduced. |
(3) |
To prevent a growing divergence in the standard rates of VAT applied by the Member States from leading to structural imbalances in the European Union and distortions of competition in some sectors of activity, it is common practice in the field of indirect taxes to set minimum rates. It is still necessary to do so for VAT. |
(4) |
Pending the outcome of consultations on a new VAT strategy which is expected to address future arrangements and corresponding levels of harmonisation, it would be premature to set a permanent standard rate level or to consider changing the minimum rate level. |
(5) |
It is therefore appropriate to maintain the current minimum standard rate at 15 % for a further period long enough to ensure legal certainty, while allowing further review. |
(6) |
This does not preclude a further revision of VAT legislation before 31 December 2015 to address the outcome of the new VAT strategy. |
(7) |
In accordance with point 34 of the Interinstitutional Agreement on better law-making (2), Member States are encouraged to draw up, for themselves and in the interests of the Union, their own tables which will, as far as possible, illustrate the correlation between this Directive and the transposition measures, and to make them public. |
(8) |
Directive 2006/112/EC should therefore be amended accordingly, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:
Article 1
Article 97 of Directive 2006/112/EC is replaced by the following:
‘Article 97
From 1 January 2011 until 31 December 2015, the standard rate may not be lower than 15 %.’.
Article 2
1. Member States shall bring into force the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with this Directive by 1 January 2011 at the latest. They shall forthwith communicate to the Commission the text of those provisions.
When Member States adopt those provisions, they shall contain a reference to this Directive or be accompanied by such a reference on the occasion of their official publication. Member States shall determine how such reference is to be made.
2. Member States shall communicate to the Commission the text of the main provisions of national law which they adopt in the field covered by this Directive.
Article 3
This Directive shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
Article 4
This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 1157/2010
of 9 December 2010
implementing Regulation (EC) No 1177/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning Community statistics on income and living conditions (EU-SILC), as regards the 2012 list of target secondary variables on housing conditions
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1177/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 June 2003 concerning Community statistics on income and living conditions (EU-SILC) (1), and in particular Article 15(2) (f) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Regulation (EC) No 1177/2003 established a common framework for the systematic production of European statistics on income and living conditions, encompassing comparable and timely cross-sectional and longitudinal data on income and on the level and composition of poverty and social exclusion at national and European Union levels. |
(2) |
Pursuant to Article 15(2)(f) of Regulation (EC) No 1177/2003, implementing measures are necessary in respect of the list of target secondary areas and variables that is to be included every year in the cross-sectional component of EU-SILC. The list of target secondary variables to be incorporated in the module on housing conditions should be laid down for the year 2012. It should also include the variables’ codes and definitions. |
(3) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the European Statistical System Committee. |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The list of target secondary variables, the variables’ codes and the definitions for the 2012 module on housing conditions to be included in the cross-sectional component of European statistics on income and living conditions (EU-SILC) shall be as laid down in the Annex.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following that of 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.

ANNEX
For the purposes of this Regulation, the following unit, mode of data collection, reference period and definitions shall apply:
1. Unit
The target variables relate to two types of units:
Household: all variables except for the ones related to the ‘change of the dwelling’.
Individual: variables related to the ‘change of the dwelling’.
2. Mode of data collection
For variables asked at household level (section 1 in the list below), the mode of data collection is personal interview with the household respondent.
For variables asked at individual level (section 2 in the list below), the mode of data collection is personal interview with all current household members aged 16 years old and over or, if applicable, with the household selected respondent.
Owing to the characteristics of the information to be collected, only personal interviews (proxy interviews as an exception for persons temporarily away or in incapacity) or extracted information from registers are allowed.
3. Reference period
The target variables relate to four types of reference periods:
|
Usual: an ordinary winter/summer, in the area where the dwelling is located (for the variables ‘dwelling comfortably warm during winter time’ and ‘dwelling comfortably cool during summer time’). |
|
Last five years (for the variables related to the ‘change of the dwelling’). It refers to the five years prior to the date of the interview. |
|
Next six months (for the variables related to ‘risk of changing the dwelling’). It refers to the six months succeeding to the date of the interview. |
|
Current (for all other variables). |
4. Definitions
(1) Dwelling installations and facilities
(a) Electrical installations: wiring, contacts, sockets and other permanent electrical installations in the dwelling.
(b) Plumbing/water installations: pipes, taps, drainage and outlets.
(c) Central heating or similar: a housing unit is considered ‘centrally heated’ if heating is provided either from a community heating centre or from an installation built in the building or in the housing unit, established for heating purposes, without attention paid to the source of energy. Fixed electrical radiators, fixed gas heaters and similar are included. The heating shall be available in most rooms.
(d) Other fixed heating: a housing unit is considered heated by ‘other fixed heating’ when the heating is not considered as ‘central heating/or similar’. It includes stoves, heaters, fireplaces and similar (‘fixed’ air conditioning appliances used as a heating facility included).
(e) Other non-fixed heating: no fixed heating system or heating device. The dwelling could however be equipped with portable heating, including portable air conditioning appliances used as a heating facility.
(f) Adequate: sufficient to satisfy the general requirements/needs of the household. An installation which is permanently out of order is considered as no installation. Inadequate installations can be: installations in bad condition, dangerous installations, installations which are regularly out of order, where there is not enough electrical power/pressure for the water to be used, the water is not drinkable, or there is limited availability. Minor temporary problems such as a blockage in the outlet do not mean that the installation is inadequate.
(2) Accessibility of basic needs
(a) |
Accessibility: this shall relate to the services used by the household having regard to the financial, physical, technical and health conditions. |
(b) |
Accessibility of services is to be assessed in terms of physical and technical access, and opening hours, but not in terms of quality, price and similar aspects. Consequently, the access should refer to an objective and physical reality. It should not be based on a subjective feeling. |
(c) |
The access should be determined in relation to the services actually used by the household. If the household does not use the service, flag -2 ‘Not applicable’ should be used. |
(d) |
The physical access has to be assessed in terms of distance but also of infrastructure and equipment for example for respondents with a physical disability. |
(e) |
Accessibility in terms of phone-banking and PC-banking should also be part of the assessment, if these ways are actually used by the household. |
(f) |
The services provided at home should also be taken into account, if they are actually used by the household. The accessibility has thus to be evaluated regardless the way(s) the household access to the service. |
(g) |
The accessibility should be considered at the level of the household, the difficulty to access has to be evaluated for the household as a whole. If the respondent doesn't use a service but other household member(s) do, the respondent should assess the accessibility according to this (these) other household member(s). |
(h) |
If one member of the household has a disability, but if another member can access easily to the service for him/her and the access to the service does not cause any problems for the household in the sense that it doesn't represent any burden for the household, then the service would be considered as easily accessible by the household. |
(i) |
On the other hand, if one member of the household has a disability and can hardly access a service (which he needs as an individual) and the household has no resource available to provide him support (e.g. if no other member can access easily to the service for him/her), or really represents a burden for the household, in this case the access to the service would be considered as difficult for the household. |
(j) |
Grocery services: services which can provide most of the daily needs. |
(k) |
Banking services: withdraw cash, transfer money and pay bills. |
(l) |
Postal services: send and receive ordinary and parcel post. |
(m) |
Public transport: bus, metro, tram and similar. |
(n) |
Primary health care services: general practitioner, primary health centre or similar. |
(o) |
Compulsory schools: if more than one child in the household is in compulsory school the respondent should refer to the one with the most difficulty. |
5. Data transmission
The target secondary variables should be sent to Eurostat in the Household Data file (H-file) and in the Personal Data File (P-file) after the target primary variables.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 1158/2010
of 9 December 2010
on a common safety method for assessing conformity with the requirements for obtaining railway safety certificates
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Directive 2004/49/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 on Safety on the Community’s railways and amending Council Directive 95/18/EC on the licensing of railway undertakings and Directive 2001/14/EC on the allocation of railway infrastructure capacity and the levying of charges for the use of railway infrastructure and safety certification (Railway Safety Directive) (1), and in particular Article 6(1) thereof,
Having regard to Recommendation ERA/REC/SAF/09-2009 from the European Railway Agency, delivered to the Commission on 18 September 2009, on a common safety method for conformity assessment.
Whereas:
(1) |
Directive 2004/49/EC provides a framework for equal conditions for all railway undertakings, through the application of the same safety certification requirements across the Union. The purpose of the common safety method (CSM) is to provide a framework for national safety authorities to harmonise their decision-making criteria across the Union, in accordance with Article 17(4) of Directive 2004/49/EC. |
(2) |
It is necessary to provide for a method for national safety authorities to assess the adequacy of processes developed by railway undertakings to meet the harmonised requirements for obtaining Part A safety certificates issued in accordance with Article 10(2)(a) and Part B safety certificates issued in accordance with Article 10(2)(b) of Directive 2004/49/EC. The criteria by which assessment by national safety authorities shall be carried out should be defined and the procedures to be followed should be established. |
(3) |
Regarding conformity with the safety requirement according to which responsibility for railway vehicle maintenance should be clearly defined, a railway undertaking which is not the entity in charge of maintenance for all vehicles used in its operation, should through appropriate contractual arrangements, such as the General Contract of Use (GCU), ensure that every vehicle has an entity in charge of maintenance to take responsibility for vehicle maintenance in accordance with Article 14a of Directive 2004/49/EC. The contract between the parties should specify the exchange of information between both undertakings needed to guarantee the safe operation of vehicles. |
(4) |
In assessing conformity with safety requirements of products or services provided by contractors or suppliers of railway undertakings, such as provision of services by training centres recognised in accordance with Directive 2007/59/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2007 on the certification of train drivers operating locomotives and trains on the railway system in the Community (2), authorisations or certificates granted in accordance with relevant Union law to contractors or suppliers may be considered valid evidence. Certification of entities in charge of maintenance in accordance with Article 14a of Directive 2004/49/EC may also be regarded valid evidence. Until the European certification system enters into force, certificates delivered on the basis of the Memorandum of Understanding establishing the basic principles of a common system of certification of entities in charge of maintenance for freight wagons (3) signed on 14 May 2009 may be considered valid evidence when assessing conformity with relevant safety requirements. |
(5) |
National safety authorities assess a railway undertaking’s ability to comply with all the requirements required to operate in general and on the specific network for which it is seeking a certificate by assessing its safety management system at global level. |
(6) |
Each national safety authority should put in place arrangements to examine whether the results outlined in the application for a safety certificate are being delivered in operation after the award of the certificate and whether all the necessary requirements are complied with on a continuous basis, as required by Article 16(2)(f) and Article 17(2) of Directive 2004/49/EC. This therefore requires the development of a post-award supervision regime based on key fundamental principles in order to ensure a harmonised approach by national safety authorities in each Member State. |
(7) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee referred to in Article 27(1) of Directive 2004/49/EC, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Subject-matter
This Regulation establishes a common safety method (CSM) for assessing conformity with requirements for obtaining safety certificates as referred to in Article 6(3)(b) of Directive 2004/49/EC.
The CSM includes:
(a) |
a procedure and criteria for assessing applications by railway undertakings for safety certificates as referred to in Article 10(2) of Directive 2004/49/EC, as set out in Annexes I, II and III to this Regulation; |
(b) |
principles for supervising compliance with the requirements of Directive 2004/49/EC after the national safety authority has granted the certificate, as set out in Annex IV to this Regulation. |
Article 2
Definitions
For the purposes of this Regulation, the following definition shall apply: ‘supervision’ means the arrangements put in place by the national safety authority to oversee safety performance after it has granted a safety certificate.
Article 3
Procedures for assessing applications
1. When examining applications for both Part A and Part B safety certificates submitted after the entry into force of this Regulation, national safety authorities shall apply the procedure set out in Annex I to this Regulation for assessing their conformity with requirements in Directive 2004/49/EC. National safety authorities shall use the assessment criteria set out in Annex II to this Regulation for safety certificates issued in accordance with Article 10(3) of Directive 2004/49/EC and those contained in Annex III to this Regulation for safety certificates issued in accordance with Article 10(4) of Directive 2004/49/EC. These criteria shall also be used in case of renewal of safety certificates in accordance with Article 10(5) of Directive 2004/49/EC.
2. During assessment, national safety authorities may accept commitments by applicants that they will manage risks through the use of contracts with third parties. The contracts shall also specify the exchange of information needed to ensure the safe operation of vehicles, especially in the areas relating to managing maintenance.
3. Products or services provided by contractors or suppliers to railway undertakings shall be presumed to conform to safety requirements if the contractors, suppliers or products are certified in accordance with relevant certification schemes established under Union legislation, for the provision of such products and services.
Article 4
Supervision
After granting a safety certificate, national safety authorities shall, for both Part A and Part B safety certificates, supervise railway undertakings’ continued application of their safety management system and shall apply the principles for supervision set out in Annex IV.
Article 5
Entry into force
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of 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.

ANNEX I
Procedure for assessing conformity with requirements for obtaining safety certificates to be issued in accordance with Article 10(2)(a) and (b) of Directive 2004/49/EC
1. The procedures that a national safety authority puts in place to receive and assess applications and to award safety certificates shall be built upon the following framework principles.
(a) Setting up and reviewing the assessment process
National safety authorities shall develop structured and auditable processes to be undertaken by suitably competent persons. They shall scrutinise applications against the assessment criteria for safety management systems set out in Annex II and III. They shall record and give reasons for all decisions. The national safety authority’s overall assessment process shall be periodically internally reviewed and continuously improved to secure its continued effectiveness and efficiency.
(b) Quality of the assessment process
National safety authorities shall monitor the quality of their own performance at key stages in the processing of applications for safety certificates.
(c) Scope of the assessment
The assessment shall be at management-system level and process-driven. Where scrutiny reveals shortcomings, the national safety authority may exercise discretion and, depending on the nature and seriousness of the non-conformity, shall outline the points which need to be enhanced. Ultimately, the national safety authority shall exercise its power to reject an application.
The assessment shall be:
— |
appropriate to the risks, character and extent of operations of the applicant; |
— |
based on judgments of the railway undertaking’s overall ability to operate safely as described in its safety management system. |
(d) Timing of the assessment
National safety authorities shall complete the assessment within the time period required by Article 12 of Directive 2004/49/EC whilst ensuring that the evidence provided by the applicant is sufficiently examined. The national safety authority shall inform railway undertakings of issues of major concern as early as practically possible during the assessment phase.
(e) Decision making during the assessment
A decision to accept or reject an application for a safety certificate or authorisation shall be based on the evidence provided by the applicant and on whether compliance with the relevant requirements has been shown or not.
2. The national safety authority shall assess whether the application for a safety certificate complies with Commission Regulation (EC) No 653/2007 (1).
3. In particular, the national safety authority shall assess whether the attached summary of the safety management system manual allows an initial judgment on the quality and appropriateness of the safety management system and shall decide in which areas further information is necessary. The national safety authority may, as part of this request for more information, seek as much detailed information as it deems reasonably necessary to help its assessment of the application.
4. When granting a safety certificate, compliance of the applicant’s safety management system with the assessment criteria shall be documented in relation to each assessment criterion.
5. When identifying a point of query or possible non-compliance, the national safety authority shall be specific and help the applicant to understand the level of detail expected in the response. To do this it shall:
(a) |
refer accurately to the relevant criteria and ensure that the applicant has understood clearly the identified areas of non-compliance; |
(b) |
identify the relevant part of related regulations, rules, and standards; |
(c) |
state why the assessment criterion is not met; |
(d) |
agree on further commitments, information and any supporting evidence to be provided, as required by the level of detail of the criterion, and specify both the action required by the applicant to rectify the deficiency and the timeframe for compliance; |
(e) |
specify areas which could be subject to further scrutiny through supervision after the award of the certificate. |
6. If a railway undertaking applies for both Part A and Part B safety certificates at the same time, the national safety authority shall ensure that the Part A certificate is granted first or that both certificates are granted together as provided for in Regulation (EC) No 653/2007. Nevertheless, national safety authorities shall define a procedure for how to use the application form (in particular, the front page for the Annexes) if a new application is made for both certificates at the same time.
7. The general framework procedures in place for assessing applications for safety certificates shall also apply to applications for safety certificates as referred to in Article 10(2)(b) of Directive 2004/49/EC.
8. A national safety authority’s assessment of an application for a safety certificate as referred to in Article 10(2)(b) Directive 2004/49/EC shall only apply to a railway undertaking’s ability to comply with the requirements needed to operate on the specific network for which it is seeking a certificate by using the procedures it has established to obtain a Part A certificate.
9. These assessment criteria are based on showing that the results of applying the procedures or processes to manage operation on a specific network have been documented and the commitment to implement them has been made. Hence in order to check whether the criteria have been met, the national safety authority may request that the railway undertaking submit a sample of the documentation it plans to use.
10. National safety authorities shall cooperate to address issues of non-compliance with the Part B assessment criteria or to deal with queries on the Part B application. A national safety authority assessing a Part B application shall liaise with the national safety authority that issued Part A to discuss and agree what action, if any, each one will take to ensure compliance with the Part B assessment criteria.

ANNEX IV
Principles for supervision after the award of a Part A or Part B certificate
1. |
The approach of national safety authorities to supervision of railway undertakings’ compliance as referred to in Article 4(1) and 16(2)(e) of Directive 2004/49/EC shall be based on the following principles. These principles apply to the framework of supervision activities as a whole and to individual cases within that framework. |
2. |
National safety authorities shall apply the principle of proportionality between enforcement and risk. Action taken by a national safety authority to achieve compliance or bring railway undertakings to account for not meeting their legal obligations shall be proportionate to any risks to safety or to the potential seriousness of any non-compliance, including any actual or potential harm. |
3. |
National safety authorities shall apply the principle of consistency of approach to ensure that a national safety authority takes a similar approach in similar circumstances to achieve similar ends. |
4. |
National safety authority supervision activity shall be targeted primarily at those activities which a national safety authority believes give rise to the most serious risks or where the hazards are least well-controlled. To do so, the national safety authority shall have methods and power to assess the day-to-day performance of the railway undertaking. |
5. |
National safety authorities shall decide on priorities to use their resources effectively but the decision on how best to do that should rest with each individual national safety authority. Action shall be focused on those who are responsible for the risk and who are best placed to control it. |
6. |
National safety authorities shall apply the principle of transparency to help railway undertakings understand what is expected of them (including what they should or should not do) and what they should expect from the national safety authority. |
7. |
National safety authorities shall be accountable for their decisions in accordance with Article 17(3) of Directive 2004/49/EC. National safety authorities shall therefore have policies and principles by which they can be assessed. Moreover, national safety authorities shall also have a complaints procedure. |
8. |
National safety authorities shall develop cooperation arrangements between each other in order to share information with each other and to coordinate their response to any breaches of safety. This is particularly important for Part B safety certificates. In addition, national safety authorities shall develop cooperation arrangements with other competent authorities in order to share information and to develop unified approaches to issues that impinge on railway safety. |

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 1159/2010
of 9 December 2010
laying down rules for the management and distribution of textile quotas established for the year 2011 under Council Regulation (EC) No 517/94
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 517/94 of 7 March 1994 on common rules for imports of textile products from certain third countries not covered by bilateral agreements, protocols or other arrangements, or by other specific Community import rules (1), and in particular Article 17(3) and (6) and Article 21(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Regulation (EC) No 517/94 established quantitative restrictions on imports of certain textile products originating in certain third countries to be allocated on a first come, first served basis. |
(2) |
Under that Regulation it is possible, in certain circumstances, to use other allocation methods, to divide quotas into tranches, or to reserve a proportion of a specific quantitative limit exclusively for applications which are supported by evidence of the results of past import performance. |
(3) |
Rules for management of the quotas established for 2011 should be adopted before the quota year begins so that the continuity of trade flows is not affected unduly. |
(4) |
The measures adopted in previous years, such as those in Commission Regulation (EU) No 1258/2009 of 18 December 2009 laying down rules for the management and distribution of textile quotas established for the year 2010 under Council Regulation (EC) No 517/94 (2), proved to be satisfactory and it is therefore appropriate to adopt similar rules for 2011. |
(5) |
In order to satisfy the greatest possible number of operators it is appropriate to make the ‘first come, first served’ allocation method more flexible by placing a ceiling on the quantities which can be allocated to each operator by that method. |
(6) |
To guarantee a degree of continuity in trade and efficient quota administration, operators should be allowed to make their initial import authorisation application for 2011 equivalent to the quantity which they imported in 2010. |
(7) |
To achieve optimum use of the quantities, an operator who has used up at least one half of the amount already authorised should be permitted to apply for a further amount, provided that quantities are available in the quotas. |
(8) |
For the sake of sound administration, import authorisations should be valid for nine months from the date of issue but only until the end of the year at the latest. Member States should issue licences only after being notified by the Commission that quantities are available and only if an operator can prove the existence of a contract and can certify, in the absence of a specific provision to the contrary, that he has not already been allocated a Community import authorisation under this Regulation for the categories and countries concerned. The competent national authorities should, however, be authorised, in response to importers’ applications, to extend by three months and up to 31 March 2012 licences of which at least one half has been used by the application date. |
(9) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Textile Committee established by Article 25 of Regulation (EC) No 517/94, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The purpose of this Regulation is to lay down rules on the management of quantitative quotas for imports of certain textile products set out in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 517/94 for the year 2011.
Article 2
The quotas referred to in Article 1 shall be allocated according to the chronological order of receipt by the Commission of Member States’ notifications of applications from individual operators, for amounts not exceeding the maximum quantities per operator set out in Annex I.
The maximum quantities shall not, however, apply to operators able to prove to the competent national authorities, when making their first application for 2011, that, in respect of given categories and given third countries, they imported more than the maximum quantities specified for each category pursuant to import licences granted to them for 2010.
In the case of such operators, the competent authorities may authorise imports not exceeding the quantities imported in 2010 from given third countries and in given categories, provided that enough quota capacity is available.
Article 3
Any importer who has already used up 50 percent or more of the amount allocated to him under this Regulation may make a further application, in respect of the same category and country of origin, for amounts not exceeding the maximum quantities laid down in Annex I.
Article 4
1. The competent national authorities listed in Annex II may, from 10.00 o’clock a.m. on 7 January 2011, notify the Commission of the amounts covered by requests for import authorisations.
The time fixed in the first subparagraph shall be understood as Brussels time.
2. The competent national authorities shall issue authorisations only after being notified by the Commission pursuant to Article 17(2) of Regulation (EC) No 517/94 that quantities are available for importation.
They shall issue authorisations only if an operator:
(a) |
proves the existence of a contract relating to the provision of the goods; and |
(b) |
certifies in writing that, in respect of the categories and countries concerned:
|
3. Import authorisations shall be valid for nine months from the date of issue, but until 31 December 2011 at the latest.
The competent national authorities may, however, at the importer’s request, grant a three-month extension for authorisations which are at least 50 percent used up at the time of the request. Such extension shall in no circumstances expire later than 31 March 2012.
Article 5
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 January 2011.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 9 December 2010.
For the Commission
The President
José Manuel BARROSO

When the constitutive material of the products of categories 1 to 114 originating in China is not specifically mentioned, these products shall be taken to be made exclusively of wool or of fine animal hair, of cotton or of man-made fibres. |
3. |
Garments which are not recognizable as being garments for men or boys or as being garments for women or girls are classified with the latter. |

This Annex covers textile raw materials (categories 128 and 154), textile products other than those of wool and fine animal hair, cotton and man-made fibres, as well as man-made fibres and filaments and yarns of categories 124, 125A, 125B, 126, 127A and 127B.
2.
Without prejudice to the rules for the interpretation of the combined nomenclature, the wording of the description of goods is considered to be of indicative value only, since the products covered by each category are determined, within this Annex, by CN codes. Where there is an “ex” symbol in front of a CN code, the products covered in each category are determined by the scope of the CN code and by that of the corresponding description.
3.
Garments which are not recognisable as being garments for men or boys or as being garments for women or girls are classified with the latter.
4.
Where the expression “babies’ garments” is used, this is meant to cover garments up to and including commercial size 86.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 1161/2010
of 9 December 2010
refusing to authorise a health claim made on foods, other than those referring to the reduction of disease risk and to children’s development and health
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 December 2006 on nutrition and health claims made on foods (1), and in particular Article 18(5) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006 health claims made on food are prohibited unless they are authorised by the Commission in accordance with that Regulation and included in a list of permitted claims. |
(2) |
Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006 also provides that applications for authorisations of health claims may be submitted by food business operators to the national competent authority of a Member State. The national competent authority is to forward valid applications to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), hereinafter referred to as the Authority. |
(3) |
Following receipt of an application the Authority is to inform without delay the other Member States and the Commission and to deliver an opinion on the health claim concerned. |
(4) |
The Commission is to decide on the authorisation of health claims taking into account the opinion delivered by the Authority. |
(5) |
Following an application from Laboratoire Vie et Santé submitted on 29 December 2008 pursuant to Article 13(5) of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006, the Authority was required to deliver an opinion on a health claim related to the effects of Catalgine® bouffées de chaleur on reduction in the number of hot flushes (Question No EFSA-Q-2009-00852) (2). The claim proposed by the applicant was worded as follows: ‘Contributes to the reduction in the number of hot flushes’. |
(6) |
On 13 January 2010, the Commission and the Member States received the scientific opinion from the Authority, which concluded that on the basis of the data presented, a cause and effect relationship had not been established between the consumption of Catalgine® bouffées de chaleur and the claimed effect. Accordingly, as the claim does not comply with the requirements of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006, it should not be authorised. |
(7) |
Health claims referred to in Article 13(1)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006 are subject to the transition measures laid down in Article 28(5) of that Regulation only if they comply with the conditions therein mentioned, among which that they have to comply with the Regulation. As for the claim subject to the present Regulation, the Authority concluded that a cause and effect relationship had not been established between the consumption of the food and the claimed effect and thus it does not comply with the Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006, it could not benefit from the transition period foreseen in Article 28(5) of that Regulation. A transition period of six months is provided for to enable food business operators to adapt to the requirements laid down in this Regulation. |
(8) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health and neither the European Parliament nor the Council have opposed them, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The health claim set out in the Annex to this Regulation shall not be included in the Union list of permitted claims as provided for in Article 13(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006.
However, it may continue to be used for six months after the entry into force of this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of 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.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 1162/2010
of 9 December 2010
refusing to authorise certain health claims made on foods and referring to the reduction of disease risk and to children’s development and health
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 December 2006 on nutrition and health claims made on foods (1), and in particular Article 17(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006 health claims made on food are prohibited unless they are authorised by the Commission in accordance with that Regulation and included in a list of permitted claims. |
(2) |
Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006 also provides that applications for authorisations of health claims may be submitted by food business operators to the national competent authority of a Member State. The national competent authority is to forward valid applications to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), hereinafter referred to as the Authority. |
(3) |
Following receipt of an application the Authority is to inform without delay the other Member States and the Commission of the application, and to deliver an opinion on the health claim concerned. |
(4) |
The Commission is to decide on the authorisation of health claims taking into account the opinion delivered by the Authority. |
(5) |
The two opinions referred to in this Regulation are related to applications for health claims referring to children’s development and health, as referred to in Article 14(1)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006. |
(6) |
Following an application from Danone Baby Nutrition, submitted pursuant to Article 14(1)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006, the Authority was required to deliver an opinion on a health claim related to the effects of Immunofortis® on the infant’s immune system (Question No EFSA-Q-2008-106) (2). The claim proposed by the applicant was worded as follows: ‘Immunofortis® to naturally strengthen your baby’s immune system’. |
(7) |
On the basis of the data presented, the Authority concluded in its opinion received by the Commission and the Member States on 4 February 2010 that the information provided is insufficient to establish a cause and effect relationship between the consumption of Immunofortis® and the claimed effect. Accordingly, as the claim does not comply with the requirements of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006, it should not be authorised. |
(8) |
Following an application from Vifor Pharma (Potters), submitted pursuant to Article 14(1)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006, the Authority was required to deliver an opinion on a health claim related to the effects of Eye qTM on working memory (Question No EFSA-Q-2009-00485) (3). The claim proposed by the applicant was worded as follows: ‘Eye q TM (a unique combination of High-EPA/DHA/GLA omega-3, 6 PUFA) provides the essential nutrients that helps improve working memory in children’. The abbreviations used by the applicant refer respectively to eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). |
(9) |
On the basis of the data presented, the Authority concluded in its opinion received by the Commission and the Member States on 4 March 2010 that the information provided is insufficient to establish a cause and effect relationship between the intake of Eye q TM and the claimed effect. Accordingly, as the claim does not comply with the requirements of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006, it should not be authorised. |
(10) |
In accordance with Article 28(6) of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006, health claims referred to in its Article 14(1)(b) and not authorised by a decision pursuant to Article 17(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006 may continue to be used for 6 months after the adoption of this Regulation, provided an application was made before 19 January 2008. However, as the health claim application relevant to Eye qTM was not made before 19 January 2008 the requirement provided for in Article 28(6)(b) is not fulfilled, and the transition period laid down in that Article is not applicable. Accordingly, a transition period of 6 months should be provided for, to enable food business operators to adapt to the requirements laid down in this Regulation. |
(11) |
The comments from the applicants and the members of the public received by the Commission pursuant to Article 16(6) of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006 have been considered when setting the measures provided for in this Regulation. |
(12) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health and neither the European Parliament nor the Council have opposed them, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The health claims set out in the Annex to this Regulation shall not be included in the Union list of permitted claims as provided for in Article 14(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006.
However, they may continue to be used for 6 months after the entry into force of this Regulation.
