COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 1159/2012
of 7 December 2012
amending Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 laying down provisions for the implementation of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 establishing the Community Customs Code
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 of 12 October 1992 establishing the Community Customs Code (1) (the Code), and in particular Article 247 thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 (2) lays down the conditions under which the Community status of goods which have been brought into a Member State from another Member State may be established. However, currently that Regulation does not provide for the possibility to establish the Community status of goods which have been moved from one point in a Member State through the territory of a third country on to another point in the same Member State. Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 should therefore be amended to provide for that possibility. |
|
(2) |
Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 756/2012 (3) amended Annex 38 of Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 containing a list of packaging codes based on Recommendation No 21 of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe. The packaging codes format as indicated in Box 31 of Annex 38 has changed from alphabetic2 (a2) to alphanumeric2 (an2). The code of the Type/Length of the kind of packages of Annex 37a should therefore be amended accordingly. |
|

The Republic of Croatia acceded to the Convention of 20 May 1987 between the European Economic Community, the Republic of Austria, the Republic of Finland, the Republic of Iceland, the Kingdom of Norway, the Kingdom of Sweden and the Swiss Confederation, on a common transit procedure (4) (the Convention) as a contracting party on 1 July 2012. By Decision No 3/2012 of the EU-EFTA Joint Committee on common transit of 26 June 2012 (5) the Convention was amended in order to adapt the guarantee documents for common transit in view of Croatia’s accession to the Convention. The corresponding guarantee documents for Community transit provided for in Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 should be adapted accordingly. |
|
(4) |
Since it has been a requirement under Decision No 3/2012 to use the guarantee documents adapted to the accession of Croatia since 1 July 2012, the corresponding guarantee documents required by Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 should also be adapted with effect from that date. However, rules should be laid down in order to allow the use of guarantee documents in compliance with the specimen applicable prior to 1 July 2012 for a transitional period, subject to the necessary adaptations. |
|
(5) |
Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 should therefore be amended accordingly. |
|
(6) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 is amended as follows:
|
1. |
Article 314 is amended as follows:
|
|
2. |
In Annex 37a, Title II.B, under the heading ‘Kind of packages (Box 31)’ the text ‘Type/Length a2’ is replaced by the text ‘Type/Length an2’. |
|

|
4. |
Annex 49 is replaced by the text set out in Annex II to this Regulation. |

|
7. |
In Annex 51a, in box 6, the text ‘Croatia’, is inserted between the text ‘European Community’, and ‘Iceland’. |
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.
It shall apply from 1 July 2012.
However, economic operators may, until 30 June 2013, use the specimen form laid down in Annex 48, 49, 50, 51 or 51a of Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 as amended by Implementing Regulation (EU) No 756/2012, subject to the necessary geographical adaptations and adaptations concerning the address for service or the authorised agent.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 1160/2012
of 7 December 2012
amending Regulation (EU) No 206/2010 as regards the model veterinary certificate for domestic bovine animals intended for transit from the region of Kaliningrad to other regions of Russia via the territory of Lithuania
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Directive 2004/68/EC of 26 April 2004 laying down animal health rules for the importation into and transit through the Community of certain live ungulate animals, amending Directives 90/426/EEC and 92/65/EEC and repealing Directive 72/462/EEC (1), and in particular the first subparagraph of Article 6(1), Article 7(e) and Article 13(1) thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Directive 2004/68/EC lays down the animal health requirements for the transit through the Union of live ungulates. It provides that specific provisions, including model veterinary certificates, may be laid down for the transit through the Union of live ungulates from authorised third countries, provided that such animals transit the territory of the Union under customs and official veterinary approval and supervision through approved border inspection posts and without any stop on Union territory other than those necessary for animal welfare purposes. |
|
(2) |
Commission Regulation (EU) No 206/2010 of 12 March 2010 laying down lists of third countries, territories or parts thereof authorised for the introduction into the European Union of certain animals and fresh meat and the veterinary certification requirements (2) lays down the veterinary certification requirements for the introduction into the Union of certain consignments of live animals, including ungulates. Annex I to that Regulation sets out a list of third countries, territories or parts thereof from which such consignments may be introduced into the Union, together with models of veterinary certificates to accompany those consignments. |
|
(3) |
The requirements for the transit of live bovine animals for breeding and production from the region of Kaliningrad (Kaliningradskaya oblast) through the territory of Lithuania, towards other regions of Russia, currently provide for certification, inter alia, that, prior to movement, the animals had remained in the territory of Kaliningrad since birth or for at least six months before the date of dispatch via the Union and without contact with imported cloven-hoofed animals for the last 30 days. |
|
(4) |
Russia has requested a revision of those requirements, in order to permit the transit through the territory of Lithuania of live bovine animals for breeding and production originating in the Union but which had been introduced into the region of Kaliningrad, without requiring that they be previously kept for a minimum period in that region. |
|
(5) |
Taking into account the favourable animal health situation in the Union, it is appropriate to provide for an alternative certification requirement for the transit of such animals from Kaliningrad through the territory of Lithuania, to other parts of the territory of Russia, by means of road vehicles. However, in order to safeguard the animal health status of the Union, such transit should only be permitted where appropriate certification is provided that, following their introduction into Kaliningrad, the animals were kept in facilities where only animals of Union origin were kept. |
|
(6) |
The model veterinary certificate ‘BOV-X-TRANSIT-RU’, set out in Part 2 of Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 206/2010 should therefore be amended accordingly. |
|
(7) |
Regulation (EU) No 206/2010 should therefore be amended accordingly. |
|
(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, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
In Part 2 of Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 206/2010, the model veterinary certificate BOV-X-TRANSIT-RU is replaced by the text in the Annex to 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 IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 1161/2012
of 7 December 2012
amending the Annex to Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 on pharmacologically active substances and their classification regarding maximum residue limits in foodstuffs of animal origin, as regards the substance fenbendazole
(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 470/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 May 2009 laying down Community procedures for the establishment of residue limits of pharmacologically active substances in foodstuffs of animal origin, repealing Council Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90 and amending Directive 2001/82/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and Regulation (EC) No 726/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council (1), and in particular Article 14 in conjunction with Article 17 thereof,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Medicines Agency formulated by the Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
The maximum residue limit (‘MRL’) for pharmacologically active substances intended for use in the Union in veterinary medicinal products for food-producing animals or in biocidal products used in animal husbandry should be established in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 470/2009. |
|
(2) |
Pharmacologically active substances and their classification regarding MRLs in foodstuffs of animal origin are set out in the Annex to Commission Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 of 22 December 2009 on pharmacologically active substances and their classification regarding maximum residue limits in foodstuffs of animal origin (2). |
|
(3) |
Fenbendazole is currently included in Table 1 of the Annex to Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 as an allowed substance, for all ruminants, applicable to muscle, fat, liver, kidney and milk, and for porcine and equidae species applicable to muscle, fat, liver and kidney. |
|
(4) |
An application for the extension of the existing entry for fenbendazole to include chicken has been submitted to the European Medicines Agency. |
|
(5) |
According to Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 470/2009 the European Medicines Agency is to consider using MRLs established for a pharmacologically active substance in a particular foodstuff for another foodstuff derived from the same species, or MRLs established for a pharmacologically active substance in one or more species for other species. The Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use CVMP recommended the extrapolation of the MRLs for fenbendazole from all ruminants, porcine and equidae species to all food-producing species except fin fish, applicable to muscle, fat, liver, kidney, milk and eggs. |
|
(6) |
The entry for fenbendazole in Table 1 of the Annex to Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 should therefore be amended to include all food-producing species except fin fish, and the target tissue eggs. |
|
(7) |
It is appropriate to provide for a reasonable period of time for the stakeholders concerned to take measures that may be required to comply with the newly set MRL. |
|
(8) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Veterinary Medicinal Products, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The Annex to Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 is amended as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 6 February 2013.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 1162/2012
of 7 December 2012
amending Decision 2007/777/EC and Regulation (EC) No 798/2008 as regards the entries for Russia in the lists of third countries from which certain meat, meat products and eggs may be introduced into the Union
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Directive 2002/99/EC of 16 December 2002 laying down the animal health rules governing the production, processing, distribution and introduction of products of animal origin for human consumption (1), and in particular the introductory phrase of Article 8, the first subparagraph of point 1 of Article 8 and point 4 of Article 8 thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Commission Decision 2007/777/EC of 29 November 2007 laying down the animal and public health conditions and model certificates for imports of certain meat products and treated stomachs, bladders and intestines for human consumption from third countries and repealing Decision 2005/432/EC (2) lays down rules on imports into the Union and the transit and storage in the Union of consignments of meat products and consignments of treated stomachs, bladders and intestines, as defined in Regulation (EC) No 853/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 laying down specific hygiene rules for food of animal origin (3). |
|
(2) |
Part 2 of Annex II to Decision 2007/777/EC sets out the list of third countries or parts thereof from which the introduction into the Union of meat products and treated stomachs, bladders and intestines into the Union is authorised, provided that those commodities comply with the treatment referred to in that Part. Where third countries are regionalised for the purposes of inclusion in that list, their regionalised territories are set out in Part 1 of that Annex. |
|
(3) |
Part 4 of Annex II to Decision 2007/777/EC sets out the treatments referred to in Part 2 of that Annex, assigning a code to each of those treatments. That Part sets out a non-specific treatment ‘A’ and specific treatments ‘B’ to ‘F’ listed in descending order of severity. |
|
(4) |
Russia is currently listed in Part 2 of Annex II to Decision 2007/777/EC for introduction into the Union of meat products and treated stomachs, bladders and intestines from domestic bovine animals, farmed cloven-hoofed game, domestic ovine or caprine animals, domestic porcine animals and wild cloven-hoofed game which have undergone the specific treatment ‘C’. Russia is also authorised for imports of meat products and treated stomachs, bladders and intestines from domestic soliped animals which have undergone the specific treatment ‘B’ and of meat products and treated stomachs, bladders and intestines from domestic rabbit and farmed and wild leporidae and certain wild land mammalian game which have undergone a non-specific treatment ‘A’. |
|
(5) |
In addition, Russia is listed in Part 2 of Annex II to Decision 2007/777/EC as authorised for transit through the Union of meat products and treated stomachs, bladders and intestines from poultry and farmed feathered game, excluding ratites, which have undergone a non-specific treatment ‘A’. |
|
(6) |
However, export to the Union of the abovementioned commodities from Russia is currently not possible because no Russian establishments have been authorised and listed in the lists of approved establishments as provided for in Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No 854/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 laying down specific rules for the organisation of official controls on products of animal origin intended for human consumption (4). Therefore, Russia is only allowed to transit those products through the Union territory as they comply with the animal health import conditions. |

(7) |
Commission Regulation (EC) No 798/2008 of 8 August 2008 laying down a list of third countries, territories, zones or compartments from which poultry and poultry products may be imported into and transit through the Community and the veterinary certification requirements (5) provides that certain commodities are only to be imported into and transit through the Union from the third countries, territories, zones or compartments listed in the table in Part 1 of Annex I thereto. It also lays down the veterinary certification requirements for such commodities. |
|
(8) |
Russia is currently listed in Part 1 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 798/2008 for the import into the Union of egg products and for transit through the Union, under certain conditions, of poultry meat. |
|
(9) |
Russia has asked the Commission to be authorised for imports into the Union of poultry meat pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 798/2008 and poultry meat products which have been subjected to a non-specific treatment ‘A’, pursuant to Annex II to Decision 2007/777/EC. Russia has also asked to be authorised for imports into the Union of processed meat products and treated stomachs, bladders and intestines of domestic bovine and domestic porcine from the region of Kaliningrad. |
|
(10) |
On request of Russia inspections were carried out by the Commission in that third country. These inspections demonstrated that the competent veterinary authority of Russia provides appropriate guarantees as regards compliance with Union rules required for imports into the Union of poultry meat and poultry meat products. |
|
(11) |
It is therefore appropriate to authorise imports of such commodities into the Union from Russia and therefore amend accordingly the entries for that third country in Part 2 of Annex II to Decision 2007/777/EC and in Part 1 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 798/2008. |
|
(12) |
A further inspection carried out by the Commission in Russia demonstrated that the competent veterinary authority and the establishments for the processing of bovine and porcine meat products in the region of Kaliningrad provide appropriate guarantees as regards compliance with Union import rules for those commodities. |
|
(13) |
Given the geographic situation of the region of Kaliningrad, it is appropriate to identify that region as a distinct part of the territory of Russia. Also, in view of the positive outcome of the Commission inspection in that region, it is appropriate to permit the introduction into the Union of bovine and porcine meat products and treated stomachs, bladders and intestines from the region of Kaliningrad. |
|
(14) |
It is therefore appropriate to list establishments situated in the region of Kaliningrad for the processing of fresh meat from bovine and porcine animals for imports into the Union of meat products containing such meat and which have undergone the required treatment set out in Part 2 of Annex II to Decision 2007/777/EC for the region of Kaliningrad. The fresh meat in question should originate either from the Union, or from bovine and porcine animals that have been raised and slaughtered in the region of Kaliningrad in Russia and complying with the relevant animal and public health import requirements, or from any other third country authorised for imports of fresh meat into the Union and complying with the relevant Union animal and public health import requirements. |
|
(15) |
It is also appropriate to reflect in Part 2 of Annex II to Decision 2007/777/EC that from the territory of Russia excluding Kaliningrad it is only allowed the transit through the Union of meat products and not their introduction into the Union. |
|
(16) |
Russia has asked the Commission to be authorised for imports into the Union of quail eggs. Regulation (EC) No 798/2008 defines quails as poultry, therefore imports of poultry eggs, including quails, should be authorised. Import of eggs of other poultry species covered by that definition should be also authorised. |
|
(17) |
Russia provided appropriate guarantees as regards compliance with Union import rules for eggs of species other than Gallus gallus, including quail eggs. It is therefore appropriate to amend Part 1 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 798/2008 in order to authorise imports into the Union of such eggs. |
|
(18) |
Russia has not submitted the Commission salmonella control programme in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 2160/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council (6), therefore the authorisation of eggs of Gallus gallus should be limited to eggs classed B. |
|
(19) |
In addition, the entry for Argentina in Part 1 of Annex II to Decision 2007/777/EC refers to Council Decision 79/542/EEC (7). That Decision was repealed by Decision No 477/2010/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council (8). The rules laid down in Decision 79/542/EEC are now laid down in Commission Regulation (EU) No 206/2010 of 12 March 2010 laying down lists of third countries, territories or parts thereof authorised for the introduction into the European Union of certain animals and fresh meat and the veterinary certification requirements (9). The references to Decision 79/542/EEC in Part 1 of Annex II to Decision 2007/777/EC should therefore be replaced with references to Regulation (EU) No 206/2010. |
|
(20) |
Decision 2007/777/EC and Regulation (EC) No 798/2008 should therefore be amended accordingly. |
|
(21) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health, |

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 1163/2012
of 7 December 2012
laying down rules for the management and distribution of textile quotas established for the year 2013 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 2013 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 Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1323/2011 of 16 December 2011 laying down rules for the management and distribution of textile quotas established for the year 2012 under Council Regulation (EC) No 517/94 (2), proved to be satisfactory and it is therefore appropriate to adopt similar rules for 2013. |
|
(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 2013 equivalent to the quantity which they imported in 2012. |
|
(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) |
To secure a 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 Union 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 2014 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 2013.
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 2013, 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 2012.
In the case of such operators, the competent authorities may authorise imports not exceeding the quantities imported in 2012 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 8 January 2013, 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 2013 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 2014.
Article 5
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 January 2013.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 7 December 2012.

José Manuel BARROSO

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 1166/2012
of 7 December 2012
amending Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the use of dimethyl dicarbonate (E 242) in certain alcoholic drinks
(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 1333/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 2008 on food additives (1), and in particular Article 10(3) thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 lays down a Union list of food additives approved for use in foods and their conditions of use. |
|
(2) |
That list may be amended in accordance with the procedure referred to in Regulation (EC) No 1331/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 2008 establishing a common authorisation procedure for food additives, food enzymes and food flavourings (2). |
|
(3) |
Pursuant to Article 3(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1331/2008, the Union list of food additives may be updated either on the initiative of the Commission or following an application. |
|
(4) |
An application for authorisation of the use of dimethyl dicarbonate (E 242) to all products belonging to category 14.2.8 (‘Other alcoholic drinks including mixtures of alcoholic drinks with non-alcoholic drinks and spirits with less than 15 % of alcohol’), was submitted on 4 October 2011 and has been made available to the Member States. |
|
(5) |
Dimethyl dicarbonate (E 242) is used for cold sterilisation beverages. It acts against fungi and bacteria and is in particular useful to limit pasteurisation. This use allows an effective preservation of drinks without altering their flavour and taste. In addition a limited pasteurisation will be more cost effective and environmental friendly. The substance is currently authorised for use in several categories of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. |
|
(6) |
Dimethyl dicarbonate (E 242) was last evaluated by the Scientific Committee on Food in 2001 (3). The substance is considered to be of no toxicological concern as at the use level of 250 mg/l it is unstable and breaks down in substances the residues of which are considered harmless. This implies that this use does not represent a hazard to health. It is therefore appropriate to allow the use of dimethyl dicarbonate (E 242) for the preservation of all products belonging to category 14.2.8 (‘Other alcoholic drinks including mixtures of alcoholic drinks with non-alcoholic drinks and spirits with less than 15 % of alcohol’). |
|
(7) |
Pursuant to Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1331/2008, the Commission is to seek the opinion of the European Food Safety Authority in order to update the Union list of food additives set out in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008, except where the update in question is not liable to have an effect on human health. Since the authorisation of use of dimethyl dicarbonate (E 242) for the preservation of all products belonging to category 14.2.8 constitutes an update of that list which is not liable to have an effect on human health, it is not necessary to seek the opinion of the European Food Safety Authority. |
|
(8) |
Pursuant to the transitional provisions of Commission Regulation (EU) No 1129/2011 of 11 November 2011 amending Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council by establishing a Union list of food additives (4), Annex II establishing the Union list of food additives approved for use in foods and conditions of use applies from 1 June 2013. In order to allow the use of dimethyl dicarbonate (E 242) for the preservation of all products belonging to category 14.2.8 before that date, it is necessary to specify an earlier date of application with regard to that food additive. |
|
(9) |
Therefore, Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 should be amended accordingly. |
|
(10) |
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 has opposed them, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 is amended in accordance with the Annex to 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 IMPLEMENTING DECISION
of 30 November 2012
approving annual and multiannual programmes and the financial contribution from the Union for the eradication, control and monitoring of certain animal diseases and zoonoses presented by the Member States for 2013
(notified under document C(2012) 8682)
(2012/761/EU)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to the Treaty of Accession of Croatia, and in particular Article 3(4) (1) thereof,
Having regard to Council Decision 2009/470/EC of 25 May 2009 on expenditure in the veterinary field (2), and in particular Article 27(5) thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Decision 2009/470/EC lays down the procedures governing the Union financial contribution for programmes for the eradication, control and monitoring of animal diseases and zoonoses. |
|
(2) |
In addition, Article 27(1) of Decision 2009/470/EC provides that a Union financial measure is to be introduced to reimburse the expenditure incurred by the Member States for the financing of national programmes for the eradication, control and monitoring of the animal diseases and zoonoses listed in Annex I to that Decision. |
|
(3) |
Commission Decision 2008/341/EC of 25 April 2008 laying down Community criteria for national programmes for the eradication, control and monitoring of certain animal diseases and zoonoses (3) provides that in order to be approved under the Union financial measures, programmes submitted by the Member States must meet at least the criteria set out in the Annex to that Decision. |
|
(4) |
Regulation (EC) No 999/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2001 laying down rules for the prevention, control and eradication of certain transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (4) provides for annual monitoring programmes by Member States for transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) in bovine, ovine and caprine animals. |
|
(5) |
Council Directive 2005/94/EC of 20 December 2005 on Community measures for the control of avian influenza (5) also provides for surveillance programmes by Member States to be carried out in respect of poultry and wild birds in order to contribute, inter alia, on the basis of regularly updated risk-assessments, to the knowledge on the threats posed by the wild birds in relation to any influenza virus of avian origin in birds. Those annual programmes, and their financing, for monitoring should also be approved. |
|
(6) |
Certain Member States have submitted to the Commission annual programmes for the eradication, control and monitoring of animal diseases, programmes of checks aimed at the prevention of zoonoses, and annual monitoring programmes for the eradication and monitoring of certain TSEs for which they wish to receive a financial contribution from the Union. |
|
(7) |
For the years 2011 and 2012 certain multiannual programmes submitted by Member States for the eradication, control and monitoring of the animal diseases were approved under Commission Decision 2010/712/EU (6) and Commission Implementing Decision 2011/807/EU (7). |
|
(8) |
Certain Member States which have been successfully implementing rabies eradication programmes that have been co-financed for several years, share land borders with third countries where that disease is present. In order to finally eradicate rabies, certain vaccination activities need to be carried out in the territory of those third countries adjacent to the Union. |
|
(9) |
In order to ensure that all rabies infected Member States shall continue with no interruption the oral vaccination activities foreseen in their programmes, it is necessary to allow for the possibility of paying of advances of up to 60 % of the maximum amount set for each programme, upon the request of the concerned Member State. |
|
(10) |
The Commission has assessed the annual programmes submitted by the Member States, as well as the third and second years respectively of the multiannual programmes approved for 2011 and 2012, from both the veterinary and financial point of view. Those programmes comply with the relevant Union veterinary legislation and in particular with the criteria set out in Decision 2008/341/EC. |
|
(11) |
Greece and Italy, due to the specific epidemiological situation and the technical problems encountered to properly implement, respectively, the programme for the eradication of ovine and caprine brucellosis and the programme for the control and monitoring of African swine fever, have informed the Commission that, in the current financial situation, additional support for contractual staff is required to ensure the proper implementation of those EU co-financed veterinary programmes. |
|
(12) |
The measures eligible for Union financial support are defined within the current Commission Implementing Decision. However, in cases where it was deemed appropriate, the Commission has informed the Member States in writing on limitations to the eligibility of certain measures in terms of maximum numbers of activities carried out or in terms of geographical areas covered by the programmes. |
|
(13) |
In the light of the importance of the annual and multiannual programmes for the achievement of Union objectives in the field of animal and public health, as well as the obligatory application in all Member States in the case of the transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE) and avian influenza programmes, it is appropriate to fix the appropriate rate of the Union financial contribution to reimburse the costs to be incurred by the Member States concerned for the measures referred to in this Decision up to a maximum amount for each programme. |
|
(14) |
In accordance with Article 75 of the Financial Regulation and Article 90(1) of the Implementing Rules, the commitment of expenditure from the Union budget shall be preceded by a financing Decision setting out the essential elements of the action involving expenditure and adopted by the institution or the authorities to which powers have been delegated by the institution. |
|
(15) |
Verification of individual justifications of eligible costs creates extensive administrative burdens while not notably increasing the efficient use of Union funds or transparency. It is thus more appropriate to fix the Union financial contribution, for each programme, where appropriate, at a level that ensures that costs entailed by the type of measure, if implemented, are adequately covered. Union financial contribution supporting in particular defined activities such as sampling, testing and vaccination should accordingly be specified as lump sum intended to compensate for all costs normally incurred to perform the activity or to produce the respective test result. |
|
(16) |
Under Council Regulation (EC) No 1290/2005 of 21 June 2005 on the financing of the common agricultural policy (8), programmes for the eradication and control of animal diseases are to be financed under the European Agricultural Guarantee Fund. For financial control purposes, Articles 9, 36 and 37 of that Regulation are to apply. |
|
(17) |
The financial contribution from the Union should be granted subject to the condition that the actions planned are efficiently carried out and that the competent authorities supply all the necessary information within the time limits laid down in this Decision. |
|
(18) |
For reasons of administrative efficiency all expenditure submitted for a financial contribution by the Union should be expressed in euro. In accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1290/2005, the conversion rate for expenditure in a currency other than the euro should be the most recent exchange rate set by the European Central Bank prior to the first day of the month in which the application is submitted by the Member State concerned. |
|
(19) |
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:
