COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 4/2014

of 6 January 2014

amending Regulation (EC) No 640/2009 implementing Directive 2005/32/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for electric motors

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 establishing a framework for the setting of ecodesign requirements for energy-related products (1) and in particular Article 15(1) thereof,

After consulting the Ecodesign Consultation Forum,

Whereas:

(1)

Experience gained in implementing Commission Regulation (EC) No 640/2009 (2) has revealed the need to amend certain provisions of Regulation (EC) No 640/2009 to avoid unintended impacts on the motor market and on the performance of the products covered by that Regulation.

(2)

Recent developments in the market of electric motors have led to changes on the limit values applied to altitude, maximum and minimum ambient air temperatures and water coolant temperatures applied to consider that a motor works under extreme conditions and in consequece a special design is needed. These developments need to be reflected on the Regulation.

(3)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 19(1) of Directive 2009/125/EC,

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 5/2014

of 6 January 2014

amending Directive 2008/38/EC establishing a list of intended uses of animal feedingstuffs for particular nutritional purposes

(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 767/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 July 2009 on the placing on the market and use of feed, amending European Parliament and Council Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 and repealing Council Directive 79/373/EEC, Commission Directive 80/511/EEC, Council Directives 82/471/EEC, 83/228/EEC, 93/74/EEC, 93/113/EC and 96/25/EC and Commission Decision 2004/217/EC (1), and in particular Article 10(5) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

In accordance with Article 32(2) of Regulation (EC) No 767/2009, several applications for authorisation were submitted to the Commission before 1 September 2010 for updating the list of intended uses as referred to in Article 10 of that Regulation.

(2)

Some of those applications concern changes of the conditions associated with the particular nutritional purposes ‘Nutritional restoration, convalescence’ as regards dogs and ‘Stabilisation of physiological digestion’ in respect of feed that may contain additives in concentrations higher than 100 times the relevant fixed maximum content in complete feed as referred to in Article 8(2) of Regulation (EC) No 767/2009. The other applications concern new particular nutritional purposes with respect to the requirement established in Article 8(2) of Regulation (EC) No 767/2009.

(3)

In addition, in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation (EC) No 767/2009, the Commission received an application to add the particular nutritional purpose ‘Reduction of iodine levels in feed in case of hyperthyroidism’ as regards cats.

(4)

A specific way of feeding is the administration of a bolus. In order to guarantee an appropriate and safe use of a bolus as feed for particular nutritional purposes, general requirements should be established for the conditions associated with certain intended uses.

(5)

The Commission made all applications, including the dossiers, available to the Member States.

(6)

The dossiers included in the applications demonstrate that the specific composition of the respective feeds fulfil the particular intended nutritional purposes ‘Nutritional restoration, convalescence‘ as regards dogs, ‘Stabilisation of physiological digestion’‘Reduction of iodine levels in feed in case of hyperthyroidism’ as regards cats, ‘Support the preparation for and recovery from sport effort’ as regards equidae, ‘Compensation for insufficient iron availability after birth’ as regards suckling piglets and calves, ‘Support the regeneration of hooves, trotters and skin’ as regards horses, ruminants and pigs, ‘Support the preparation for oestrus and reproduction’ as regards mammals and birds and ‘Long-term supply of grazing animals with trace elements and/or vitamins’ as regards ruminants with a functional rumen.

(7)

Furthermore, the evaluation showed that the feeds concerned have no adverse effects on animal health, human health, the environment or animal welfare. The evaluation of the dossiers included verification that the characterisation ‘high level of a certain feed additive’ implies an important level of the respective additive which is close to the relevant fixed maximum content in complete feed but not exceeding this content.

(8)

The applications are therefore valid and the particular nutritional purposes should be added to the list of intended uses and the conditions associated with the particular nutritional purposes ‘Nutritional restoration, convalescence’ and ‘Stabilisation of physiological digestion’ should be changed.

(9)

Directive 2008/38/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.

(10)

Since safety reasons do not require the immediate application of the modifications for the feed currently legally placed on the market, it is appropriate to allow a transitional period for interested parties to prepare themselves to meet the new requirements.

(11)

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 I to Directive 2008/38/EC is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.

Article 2

Feed included in the Annex to this Regulation and referred to in Article 8(2) of Regulation (EC) No 767/2009 that have already been legally placed on the market before 1 September 2010 which are produced and labelled before 27 July 2014 may continue to be placed on the market and used until the existing stocks are exhausted. In case this feed is intended for pets, the date mentioned in the last sentence is 27 January 2016.

Article 3

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.

Done at Brussels, 6 January 2014.

GUIDELINE OF THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK

of 25 July 2013

on government finance statistics

(recast)

(ECB/2013/23)

(2014/2/EU)

THE GOVERNING COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK,

Having regard to the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank, and in particular Article 5.1 and 5.2, and Articles 12.1 and 14.3 thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 479/2009 of 25 May 2009 on the application of the Protocol on the excessive deficit procedure annexed to the Treaty establishing the European Community (1),

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 549/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 May 2013 on the European System of national and regional accounts in the European Union (2),

Whereas:

(1)

Guideline ECB/2009/20 of the European Central Bank of 31 July 2009 on government finance statistics (3) needs to be substantially amended and should therefore be recast in the interests of clarity and transparency.

(2)

The update of the methodological framework, from the European System of Accounts (ESA) 1995 to the ESA 2010, as laid down by Regulation (EU) No 549/2013, requires the adaptation of the statistical concepts. For reasons of consistency, the European Central Bank’s (ECB) requirements in the field of government finance statistics (GFS) should be based on the Union statistical standards defined in ESA 2010.

(3)

To fulfil its tasks, the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) needs comprehensive, i.e. covering all transactions including those in which general government acts as an agent for European Union institutions, and reliable data for economic and monetary analysis. The procedures laid down in this Guideline do not affect the responsibilities and competencies at the level of the Member States and of the Union.

(4)

It is necessary to establish efficient procedures for exchanging GFS within the ESCB, to ensure that the ESCB has timely GFS meeting its needs and that there is compatibility between them and the forecasts of the same variables prepared by the national central banks (NCBs), irrespective of whether the statistics are compiled by the NCBs or by the competent national authorities.

(5)

Part of the information necessary to meet the ESCB’s statistical requirements in the field of GFS is compiled by competent national authorities other than NCBs. Therefore, some of the tasks to be undertaken under this Guideline require cooperation between the ESCB and the competent national authorities. Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 2533/98 of 23 November 1998 concerning the collection of statistical information by the European Central Bank (4) obliges the Member States to organise themselves in the field of statistics and fully cooperate with the ESCB in order to ensure the fulfilment of the obligations arising out of Article 5 of the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank (hereinafter the ‘Statute of the ESCB’).

(6)

The statistical sources based upon Regulation (EC) No 479/2009 and the ESA 2010 do not satisfy the needs of the ESCB in respect of coverage of government debt and deficit-debt adjustment statistics and statistics on transactions between the Member States and the Union budget. Therefore further compilation by the competent national authorities is necessary.

(7)

It is necessary to set up a procedure to carry out technical amendments to the Annexes to this Guideline in an effective manner, provided that such amendments neither change the underlying conceptual framework, nor affect the reporting burden. NCBs may propose such technical amendments to the Statistics Committee of the ESCB, whose view will be taken into account when following this procedure,

HAS ADOPTED THIS GUIDELINE:

Article 1

Definitions

For the purposes of this Guideline:

(1)

‘euro area Member State’ means a Member State whose currency is the euro;

(2)

‘government finance statistics (GFS)’ means statistics on revenue, expenditure and deficit/surplus, statistics on deficit-debt adjustment, and statistics on government debt (as set out in Annex I);

(3)

‘government debt’ has the same meaning as defined in Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 479/2009;

(4)

‘first transmission’ means the regular transmission performed by the NCBs before 15 April;

(5)

‘second transmission’ means the regular transmission performed by the NCBs before 15 October.

Article 2

Statistical reporting obligations of the NCBs

1.   The NCBs shall report GFS to the ECB, as specified in Annex I, on a calendar year basis. The data shall comply with the principles and definitions of Regulation (EC) No 479/2009 and of the ESA 2010, as further detailed in Annex II.

2.   The NCBs shall report in accordance with the methodological definitions laid down for sectors and subsectors in Section 1 of Annex II to this Guideline and for the following in Section 2 thereof:

(a)

‘revenue, expenditure and deficit/surplus statistics’, which comprise the statistics contained in Tables 1A, 1B and 1C of Annex I;

(b)

‘deficit-debt adjustment statistics’, which comprise the statistics contained in Tables 2A and 2B of Annex I;

(c)

‘government debt statistics’, which comprise the statistics contained in Tables 3A and 3B of Annex I.

3.   The complete data set shall comprise all categories as defined in Annex I (covering revenue, expenditure and deficit/surplus statistics, deficit-debt adjustment statistics and government debt statistics). It shall also cover back data from 1995 to the year to which the transmission relates (year t-1).

4.   By way of derogation from paragraph 3, the NCBs shall not be required to transmit back data for categories covered by the derogations agreed between the European Commission (Eurostat) and Member States.

5.   The transmission of the data specified in Tables 1A-C, 2A-B, 3A-B of Annex I shall start in October 2014.

6.   The data on deficit/surplus, debt, revenue, expenditure and nominal gross domestic product (GDP) shall be accompanied by reasons for revisions when the magnitude of the change to deficit/surplus caused by revisions is at least 0,3 % of GDP or the magnitude of the change to debt, revenue, expenditure or nominal GDP caused by revisions is at least 0,5 % of GDP.

Article 3

Statistical reporting obligations of the ECB

1.   On the basis of the data reported by the NCBs, the ECB shall manage the ‘GFS database’, which will include euro area and national data. The ECB shall disseminate the GFS database to the ESCB.

Article 4

Timeliness

1.   The NCBs shall report complete data sets twice a year, before 15 April and before 15 October.

2.   The NCBs shall report on their own initiative (partial) data sets, at any other time, when relevant new information becomes available. This data set may contain estimates for categories for which no new information is available.

3.   The ECB shall disseminate the GFS database to the NCBs at least once a month, not later than the next ECB working day after the ECB finalises the data for publication.

Article 5

Cooperation with the competent national authorities

ANNEX III

TRANSMISSION OF DATA TO THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK

The national central banks (NCBs) use the facilities provided by the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) which relies on the ESCB IT infrastructure for the electronic transmission of the statistical information required by the European Central Bank (ECB). The exchanges of data within the ESCB shall be based on the Statistical Data and Metadata eXchange format. This requirement does not prevent the use of some other means of transmitting statistical information to the ECB as an agreed fall-back solution.

NCBs observe the recommendations listed below in order to ensure that data transmission functions satisfactorily.

Completeness: NCBs report all required series keys. Reporting no series keys or non-listed series keys will be considered as incomplete reporting. Should an observation be missing, the omission is recorded using the corresponding observation status flag.

Accounting identities and sign convention of the data: the validation rules must be implemented by the NCBs before the data are transmitted to the ECB.

Where revisions are made to only a subset of series keys, the validation rules are applied to the whole report.

GUIDELINE OF THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK

of 25 July 2013

on the statistical reporting requirements of the European Central Bank in the field of quarterly financial accounts

(recast)

(ECB/2013/24)

(2014/3/EU)

THE GOVERNING COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK,

Having regard to the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank, and in particular Article 5.1 and 5.2, Article 12.1 and Article 14.3 thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Guideline ECB/2002/7 of 21 November 2002 on the statistical reporting requirements of the European Central Bank in the field of quarterly financial accounts (1) has been significantly amended several times. Since further amendments are to be made, it should be recast in the interests of clarity.

(2)

To fulfil its tasks, the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) requires comprehensive and reliable quarterly financial accounts by institutional sector, including both national data sets and euro area aggregates.

(3)

Part of the information necessary to meet the ESCB’s statistical requirements in the field of quarterly euro area financial accounts is compiled by competent national authorities other than national central banks (NCBs). Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 2533/98 of 23 November 1998 concerning the collection of statistical information by the European Central Bank (2) obliges the Member States to organise themselves in the field of statistics and fully cooperate with the ESCB to ensure the fulfilment of the obligations arising out of Article 5 of the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank.

(4)

For reasons of consistency, the European Central Bank’s (ECB’s) requirements in the field of quarterly financial accounts should be based on the Union statistical standards laid down by Regulation (EU) No 549/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 May 2013 on the European system of national and regional accounts in the European Union (3) (hereinafter the ‘ESA 2010’).

(5)

Supplementary quarterly national financial accounts data need to be provided with sufficient timeliness to allow for the compilation of an integrated set of quarterly euro area financial and non-financial accounts fit for monetary policy purposes.

(6)

Quarterly national financial accounts are also increasingly used for other purposes, including macro-prudential analysis and monitoring of excessive imbalances. These activities, as well as other activities in the area of international cooperation and research, will be facilitated through publication by the ECB of the relevant euro area aggregates compiled on the basis of this Guideline and of the national data collected in this respect.

(7)

For a better understanding of the interlinkages between institutional sectors, the quarterly national financial accounts should comprise counterpart sector information (also referred to as ‘from-whom-to-whom information (w-t-w)’) relating to financial assets and liabilities.

(8)

To enhance the understanding of the impact of revaluations on balance sheets, a breakdown of so-called ‘other flows’ into ‘revaluations’ and ‘other changes in volume’ should also be part of the full quarterly national financial accounts data set.

(9)

The ECB will, in cooperation with the NCBs, continue to enhance methods and sources used to compile quarterly national financial accounts data, with a view to improving data quality, sharing best practices, and enhancing understanding of the relationship between the data transmitted to the ECB pursuant to various ECB legal instruments.

(10)

The quality assessment of the quarterly euro area financial accounts by institutional sector should be performed in accordance with the ECB Statistics Quality Framework (4). The NCBs, in cooperation with other competent authorities, where appropriate, should also assess the quality of the data which they provide to the ECB.

(11)

According to Article 3a of Regulation (EC) No 2533/98 and the Public commitment on European statistics by the ESCB (5), the development, production and dissemination of European statistics by the ESCB are governed by the principles of impartiality, objectivity, professional independence, cost-effectiveness, statistical confidentiality, minimisation of the reporting burden and high output quality.

(12)

According to Article 8(4) of Regulation (EC) No 2533/98, transmission of confidential statistical information within the ESCB may take place to the extent and at the level of detail necessary for the exercise of the ESCB’s tasks referred to in the Treaty. Where competent authorities other than NCBs are the sources of statistical information marked as confidential, such confidential statistical information should be used by the ECB in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 2533/98.

(13)

It is necessary to set up a procedure to carry out technical amendments to the annexes to this Guideline in an effective manner, provided that such amendments neither change the underlying conceptual framework nor affect the reporting burden. Account will be taken of the views of the Statistics Committee (‘STC’) of the ESCB when following this procedure. NCBs may propose such technical amendments to the annexes through the STC,

the ‘national data’ referred to in Article 2(3)(b) shall be published together with information indicating that they are provisional and/or estimated, as appropriate. This treatment can be extended to other ‘national data’ collected under Article 2, as described in paragraphs 3 to 5, upon a justified request from the reporting NCB.

Article 4

Timeliness

1.   The ‘supplementary data’ described in Article 2(2) shall be reported to the ECB within a period that shall not exceed 85 calendar days following the end of the reference quarter. Starting with the first transmission in 2017, the ‘supplementary data’ shall be reported to the ECB within a period that shall not exceed 82 calendar days following the end of the reference quarter.

2.   The ‘national data’ described in Article 2(3) to (5) and the explanatory metadata described in Article 2(7) shall be reported to the ECB within a period that shall not exceed 100 calendar days following the end of the reference quarter. Starting with the first transmission in 2017, the ‘national data’ and associated metadata shall be reported to the ECB within a period that shall not exceed 97 calendar days following the end of the reference quarter.

3.   The data described in Article 3(1) shall be transmitted by the ECB to the NCBs not later than on the ECB working day following the day on which the ECB publishes the data.

Article 5

Cooperation with the competent national authorities

1.   Where the sources of some or all of the data and information described in Article 2 fall within the competence of national authorities other than the NCBs, the NCBs shall endeavour to establish permanent cooperation arrangements with those authorities ensuring a data transmission complying with the standards and requirements set out in this Guideline, unless the same result is already achieved on the basis of existing national legislation.

2.   When in the course of this cooperation an NCB is unable to comply with the requirements laid down in Articles 2 and 4 because the competent national authority did not provide the NCB with the necessary data or information, the ECB and the NCB shall review the matter together with that national authority with the view to ensuring that the information is made available in a timely manner.

Article 6

Transmission standard

The required statistical information shall be made available to the ECB in a form which meets the requirements laid down in Annex II. This requirement does not prevent the use of some other means of transmitting statistical information to the ECB as a fallback solution agreed between the ECB and an NCB.

Article 7

Quality

1.   The ECB and the NCBs shall monitor and promote the quality of the data reported to the ECB.

2.   The Executive Board of the ECB shall report yearly to the Governing Council of the ECB on the quality of the quarterly financial accounts. The report shall address, at least, the coverage of the data, the extent to which they comply with the relevant definitions, and the magnitude of revisions.

Article 8

Simplified amendment procedure

Taking account of the views of the STC, the Executive Board of the ECB shall be entitled to make technical amendments to the annexes to this Guideline, provided that such amendments neither change the underlying conceptual framework nor affect the reporting burden. The Executive Board shall inform the Governing Council of any such amendment without undue delay.

Article 9

Repeal

Guideline ECB/2002/7 is repealed from 1 September 2014. References to the repealed Guideline shall be construed as references to this Guideline.

Article 10

Final provisions

1.   This Guideline is addressed to all Eurosystem central banks.

2.   This Guideline shall take effect on 1 September 2014.

Done at Frankfurt am Main, 25 July 2013.

ANNEX II

TRANSMISSION OF DATA TO THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK

The national central banks (NCBs) use the facilities provided by the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) which relies on the ESCB IT infrastructure for the electronic transmission of the statistical information required by the European Central Bank (ECB). The exchanges of data within the ESCB shall be based on the Statistical Data and Metadata eXchange format. This requirement does not prevent the use of some other means of transmitting statistical information to the ECB as an agreed fall-back solution.

NCBs observe the recommendations listed below in order to ensure that data transmission functions satisfactorily:

(i)

Completeness: NCBs report all required series keys. Reporting no series keys or non-listed series keys will be considered as incomplete reporting. Should an observation be missing, the omission is recorded using the corresponding observation status flag.

(ii)

Accounting identities and sign convention of the data: the validation rules must be implemented by the NCBs before the data are transmitted to the ECB.

Where revisions are made to only a subset of series keys, the validation rules are applied to the whole report.
