COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 1061/2014
of 8 October 2014
fixing an acceptance percentage for the issuing of export licences, rejecting export-licence applications and suspending the lodging of export-licence applications for out-of-quota sugar
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 establishing a common organisation of the markets in agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 922/72, (EEC) No 234/79, (EC) No 1037/2001 and (EC) No 1234/2007 (1),

(2) |
Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 776/2014 of 16 July 2014 fixing the quantitative limit for the exports of out-of-quota sugar and isoglucose until the end of the 2014/2015 marketing year (3) sets such quantitative limits. |
(3) |
The quantities of sugar covered by applications for export licences exceed the quantitative limit fixed by Implementing Regulation (EU) No 776/2014. An acceptance percentage should therefore be set for quantities applied for from 1 to 3 October 2014. All export-licence applications for sugar lodged after 3 October 2014 should accordingly be rejected and the lodging of export-licence applications should be suspended, |

COUNCIL DECISION
of 24 June 2014
establishing the position to be adopted on behalf of the European Union at the 25th session of the OTIF Revision Committee as regards certain amendments to the Convention concerning International Carriage by Rail (COTIF) and to the Appendices thereto
(2014/699/EU)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 91 in conjunction with Article 218(9) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) |
The Union has acceded to the Convention concerning International Carriage by Rail of 9 May 1980 as amended by the Vilnius Protocol of 3 June 1999 (the ‘COTIF Convention’) in accordance with Council Decision 2013/103/EU (1). |
(2) |
All Member States, with the exception of Cyprus and Malta, apply the COTIF Convention. |
(3) |
The Revision Committee set up in accordance with point (c) of Article 13(1) of the COTIF Convention, at its 25th session due to take place from 25 to 27 June 2014, is expected to decide upon certain amendments to the COTIF Convention as well as to certain Appendices thereto, namely Appendices B (Uniform Rules concerning the Contract of International Carriage of Goods by Rail — CIM), D (Uniform Rules concerning Contracts of Use of Vehicles in International Rail Traffic — CUV), E (Uniform Rules concerning the Contract of Use of Infrastructure in International Rail Traffic — CUI), F (Uniform Rules concerning the Validation of Technical Standards and the Adoption of Uniform Technical Prescriptions applicable to Railway Material intended to be used in International Traffic — APTU) and G (Uniform Rules concerning the Technical Admission of Railway Material used in International Traffic — ATMF). |
(4) |
The amendments to the COTIF Convention have the objective of updating the tasks of the Committee of Technical Experts and the definition of ‘keeper’ in line with Union law; and of modifying certain rules concerning the financing of the Intergovernmental Organisation for International Carriage by Rail (OTIF), its auditing and reporting as well as minor administrative changes. |
(5) |
The amendments to Appendix B (CIM) aim to give preference to the electronic form of the consignment note and its accompanying documents and to clarify certain provisions of the contract of carriage. |
(6) |
The amendments to Appendix D (CUV) presented by the Secretary-General of OTIF have the objective of clarifying the roles of the keeper and the entity in charge of maintenance in the contracts of use of vehicles in international rail traffic. France has presented a separate proposal concerning the liability for damage caused by a vehicle. Germany has also presented a separate proposal concerning the scope of the CUV Uniform rules. |
(7) |
The amendments to Appendix G (ATMF) aim to update the provisions concerning the technical admission of railway material used in international traffic, clarify the functions of and relations between the contracting State as defined in that Appendix, the competent authority and the assessing entity as well as harmonise terms in line with Union law. |
(8) |
The amendments to Appendix F (APTU) aim to maintain consistency with the revised Appendix G (ATMF). |
(9) |
The amendments to Appendix E (CUI) suggested by the Internation Rail Transport Committee (CIT) aim to extend the scope of the uniform rules concerning the contract of use of infrastructure to domestic rail transport, to create a legal basis for general terms and conditions of use of railway infrastructure and to extend the liability of the infrastructure manager for damage or losses caused by the infrastructure. |
(10) |
The Secretary-General of OTIF has also proposed editorial changes to replace the term ‘European Communities’ by ‘European Union’ throughout the COTIF Convention and the Appendices thereto. |
(11) |
Most of the proposed amendments are in line with the law and the strategic objectives of the Union, and should therefore be supported by the Union. Certain amendments have no impact on EU law and do not need a position to be agreed at Union level. Finally, some amendments need more discussion within the Union and should be rejected at this meeting of the Revision Committee; should the latter amendments be approved without modification that is acceptable for the Union, the Union should formulate an objection following the procedure established in Article 35(4) of the COTIF Convention, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
1. The position to be taken on the Union's behalf at the 25th session of the Revision Committee set up by the Convention concerning International Carriage by Rail shall be in accordance with the Annex to this Decision.
2. Minor changes to the documents mentioned in the Annex to this Decision may be agreed by the representatives of the Union in the Revision Committee without further Decision of the Council.
Article 2
After its adoption, the Decision of the Revision Committee shall be published in the Official Journal of the European Union.
Article 3
This Decision shall enter into force on the day of its adoption.

ANNEX
1. INTRODUCTION
The Secretary-General of OTIF has convened the 25th session of the Revision Committee (RC) of COTIF Convention in Berne on 25-27 June 2014.
2. REFERENCED DOCUMENTS
Documents concerning the agenda items were circulated to OTIF Member States and are available on the website of OTIF at the following link: http://otif.org/en/law/revision-committee/working-documents.html
3. COMMENTS ON EACH AGENDA ITEM
ITEM 1. OPENING THE MEETING AND ESTABLISHING THE QUORUM
Document: none.
Competence: shared.
Exercising voting rights: not applicable.
Recommended coordinated position: none.
There is a quorum in the RC when the majority of the OTIF Member States enjoying the right to vote are represented there at the time of the vote. However, Article 13(3) of the COTIF Convention provides that OTIF Member States having made a declaration concerning the non-application of one or more Appendices do not have the right to vote concerning amendments to the given Appendix.
The following OTIF Member States have not withdrawn their declarations on the non-application of certain Appendices:
|
Pakistan, Russia (concerning Uniform Rules concerning the Contract of International Carriage of Passengers by Rail (CIV), the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Rail (RID), CUV, CUI, APTU and ATMF), Georgia (concerning CUV, CUI, APTU and ATMF), the Czech Republic, Norway, Slovakia, the United Kingdom (concerning CUI, APTU and ATMF), France (concerning ATMF). |
|
When discussing amendments to the relevant Appendices, the number of OTIF Member States having made a declaration on the non-application of the Appendix in question has to be deducted from the number of active members of OTIF (46) to establish the quorum concerning the vote on the Appendix in question. |
|
In the case of Union competence, the Union may vote for all of its members having the right to vote, without regard to the physical presence of those members at the vote; thus, the quorum may be different in the case of the Union representing its Member States and in the case of Union Member States voting for themselves. |
ITEM 2. ELECTION OF CHAIR AND VICE CHAIR
Document: none.
Competence: shared.
Exercising voting rights: Member States.
Recommended coordinated position: none.
ITEM 3. ADOPTION OF THE AGENDA
Document: CR 25/3.
Competence: shared.
Exercising voting rights: Member States.
Recommended coordinated position: none.
ITEM 4. PARTIAL REVISION OF COTIF — BASIC CONVENTION
Documents: CR 25/4, CR 25/4 Add. 1.
Competence: shared.
Exercising voting rights: Member States.
Recommended coordinated position:
Amendments to Article 3 (International cooperation) to be supported (editorial change to replace the reference to the ‘European Communities’ with a reference to the ‘European Union’).
Amendments to Article 12 (Execution of judgments. Attachment) to be supported as it amends the definition of ‘keeper’ in line with Union law.
Amendments to Article 20 (Committee of Technical Experts) to be supported as they are necessary to update the APTU Uniform Rules and ATMF Uniform Rules in order to keep them in line with Union law.
Other amendments: no Union position necessary as these amendments relate to the financing of the organisation, auditing or include administrative changes regarding the work programme, the annual report and the lists of lines or services which have no impact on Union law.
ITEM 5. PARTIAL REVISION OF APPENDIX B (CIM)
Documents: CR 25/5, CR 25/5 Add. 1, CR 25/5 Add. 2, CR 25/5.1.
Competence: shared.
Exercising voting rights: Union for Articles 6 and 6a; Member States for other Articles.
Recommended coordinated position:
Amendments to Article 6 and new Article 6a concern Union law because of the use of the consignment note and its accompanying documents for customs and sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) procedures. The Union agrees with the intention of OTIF to give priority to the electronic form of consignment notes. However, at present the adoption of these amendments may lead to unintended consequences. The current simplified procedure for customs transit by rail is only possible with paper documents. Therefore, if railways opt for the electronic consignment note, they will have to use the standard transit procedure and the New Computerised Transit System (NCTS).
The Commission has started preparations for a working group to discuss the use of electronic transport documents for transit under Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 of the European Parliament and the Council (1). That working group will have its kick-off meeting on 4-5 June 2014. The Union agrees also with the intention to provide the accompanying documents in electronic format. However, under current Union law there is no legal basis to provide the documents (e.g. Common Veterinary Entry Document, Common Entry Document) which have to accompany SPS-related goods in electronic format and therefore they need to be provided on paper. The Commission has prepared a draft Regulation, which will cater for electronic certification and the draft is currently under discussion in the European Parliament and the Council. That Regulation (Official Control Regulation) is envisaged to be adopted by end of 2015/beginning of 2016, however, there will be a transitional period for the enforcement.
Therefore, the Union suggests that no decision should be taken on these items at the present session of the RC and that OTIF continue cooperation with the Union on this issue in order to have a well-prepared solution for an upcoming revision of CIM which should ideally be synchronised with the Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 and its implementing provisions which are to be in force from 1 May 2016. Certain electronic procedures may be phased in between 2016 and 2020 in accordance with Article 278 of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013.
Other amendments: no Union position necessary as these provisions do not interfere with Union law.
ITEM 6. ELECTRONIC DOCUMENTS CONCERNING THE CARRIAGE OF DANGEROUS GOODS — INFORMATION ON THE WORK OF THE RID COMMITTEE OF EXPERTS
Document: CR 25/6.
Competence: Union.
Exercising voting rights: not applicable.
Recommended coordinated position: to take note of the information.
ITEM 7. PARTIAL REVISION OF APPENDIX D (CUV)
Documents: CR 25/7, CR 25/7 Add. 1, CR 25/7 Add. 2, CR 25/7 Add. 3.
Competence: shared.
Exercising voting rights: Union.
Recommended Union position: Amendments to Articles 2 and 9 to be supported as they clarify the roles of the keeper and of the entity in charge of maintenance in line with Union law (Directive 2008/110/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (2)).However, the proposed amendment to Article 7 submitted by France concerning the liability of the person who has provided a vehicle for use as a means of transport in case of damage resulting from a defect of the vehicle needs further analysis within the Union before taking a decision in OTIF. Therefore, the Union is not in a position to support this amendment proposal at this RC and proposes to postpone the decision until the next General Assemblyin order to further assess this issue. The Union takes the same position, i.e. to postpone the decision until the next General Assembly in order to further assess the issue, on the proposal of Germany for a new Article 1a presented to OTIF during Union coordination.
Additional recommended Union position: In document CR 25/7 ADD 1, page 6, at the end of paragraph 8a, add: ‘The amendment to Article 9, paragraph 3, first indent, does not affect the existing allocation of liabilities between ECM and the keeper of the vehicles.’.
ITEM 8. REVISION OF APPENDIX G (ATMF)
Documents: CR 25/8, CR 25/8 Add. 1, CR 25/8 Add. 2.
Competence: Union.
Exercising voting rights: Union.
Recommended coordinated position:
(1) |
On Ref. CR 25/8 Revision of Appendix G (ATMF) To vote in favour with the following comments:
|
(2) |
On 25/8 Add. 1. Justification document for the Revision of Appendix G (ATMF)
|
(3) |
Result of the verification of the German version of the Revision of Annex G (ATMF):
|
(4) |
In the French version the definition in point (n) of Article 2 should read: ‘ “détenteur” désigne la personne ou l'entité propriétaire du véhicule ou disposant d'un droit de disposition sur celui-ci, qui exploite ledit véhicule à titre de moyen de transport et est inscrite en tant que telle dans le registre des véhicules prévu à l'article 13.’ . |
ITEM 9. PARTIAL REVISION OF APPENDIX F (APTU)
Documents: Ref.: CR 25/9, CR 25/9 Add. 1.
Competence: Union.
Exercising voting rights: Union.
Recommended coordinated position: editorial amendments to be supported.
ITEM 10. MANDATE FOR THE CONSOLIDATION OF THE EXPLANATORY REPORT
Document: CR 25/10.
Competence: shared.
Exercising voting rights: Member States.
Recommended Union position: to be supported.
ITEM 11. EDITORIAL AMENDMENTS
Document: CR 25/11.
Competence: shared.
Exercising voting rights: Member States.
Recommended coordinated position: to be supported with the addition of the following new second indent:
‘— |
to provide for a period of 3 weeks open for Member States for a check of those editorial amendments before their notification:’ |
.
ITEM 12. PARTIAL REVISION OF APPENDIX E (CUI)
Document: CR 25/12.
Competence: shared.
Exercising voting rights: Union.
Recommended coordinated position: amendments to be rejected. These amendments suggested by CIT include the extension of the scope of CUI to domestic operations, the introduction of contractually binding General Terms and Conditions and the extension of the infrastructure manager's liability for damage. They may deserve further consideration but as they have not been discussed in any internal forum of OTIF before the Revision Committee, their impact could not have been assessed in sufficient detail. It seems to be premature to amend CUI (which is at present in line with Union law) at this RC without proper preparation.
ITEM 13. RULES OF PROCEDURE FOR THE WORKING GROUPS OF THE REVISION COMMITTEE CONCERNING APPENDICES A, B, D AND E
Document: CR 25/13.
Competence: shared.
Exercising voting rights: Member States.
Recommended coordinated position: none.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION
of 7 October 2014
amending Decision 2007/131/EC on allowing the use of the radio spectrum for equipment using ultra-wideband technology in a harmonised manner in the Community
(notified under document C(2014) 7083)
(2014/702/EU)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Decision No 676/2002/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 March 2002 on a regulatory framework for radio spectrum policy in the European Community (Radio Spectrum Decision) (1), and in particular Article 4(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Commission Decision 2007/131/EC (2) as amended by Decision 2009/343/EC (3), harmonises the technical conditions for radio equipment using ultra-wideband (hereinafter ‘UWB’) technology in the Union. It ensures that the radio spectrum is available across the Union under harmonised conditions, eliminates barriers to the uptake of UWB technology and creates an effective single market for UWB systems with significant economies of scale and benefits to the consumer. |
(2) |
Rapid changes in technology and in the use of the radio spectrum need to be adequately reflected in the regulation of UWB technology, to allow European society to benefit from the introduction of innovative applications based on this technology, while ensuring that other spectrum users are not adversely affected. The latest version of Decision 2007/131/EC therefore needs to be amended. |
(3) |
For this reason, on 28 May 2012 the Commission issued a Fifth Mandate, pursuant to Decision No 676/2002/EC, to the European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT) on UWB technology, to clarify technical parameters in the light of a potential update to Decision 2007/131/EC. |
(4) |
In CEPT Report 45, approved on 21 June 2013 by the Electronic Communications Committee (ECC) and submitted in response to the fifth mandate, CEPT advised the Commission to take a more streamlined approach on subsequent amendments of Decision 2007/131/EC, taking into account the description of mitigation techniques with all the relevant detailed parameters within the harmonised European standards developed by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI). |
(5) |
CEPT Report 45 clarified the technical conditions under which specific mitigation techniques enable UWB equipment to be operated with higher transmission powers, while offering equivalent protection for existing UWB limits on generic use, Automotive and railway vehicles use and location-tracking equipment. In addition to the recommendations from this report, which should be applied across the EU, the definitions and the technical parameters of these mitigation techniques should also be made binding, as set out in the relevant standards, as these techniques only provide a mitigation effect when used with appropriate operational parameters. |
(6) |
UWB equipment onboard aircraft should be permitted only on the condition that they fulfil air safety standards, with appropriate airworthiness certification and other relevant aeronautical provisions, and electronic communication standards. Airworthiness certificates valid throughout the Community are issued by the European Aviation Safety Agency, pursuant to Commission Regulation (EU) No 748/2012 (4). |
(7) |
Material sensing devices have a number of uses in detecting and characterising objects and materials or taking pictures of pipes, wires and other intra-wall structures in residential or commercial buildings. CEPT has advised the Commission that more relaxed limits on the use of material sensing devices are possible, as the way they are used, combined with their very low deployment densities and activity factors, further mitigate the possibility of harmful interference to radio-communication services. The revised limits are set out in ECC Decision ECC/DEC/(07)01 of 30 March 2007, as amended on 26 June 2009. |
(8) |
Pursuant to Directive 1999/5/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (5), the Commission has given mandate M/407 to the European standardisation organisations to draw up a set of harmonised standards. These will cover UWB equipment to be recognised under this Directive, and there will be a presumption of conformity with its requirements. In response to mandate M/407 from the Commission, ETSI has developed the harmonised standards: EN 302 065-1 on common technical requirements for short-range devices using UWB, EN 302 065-2, on requirements for UWB location tracking and EN 302 065-3 on requirements for UWB devices for road and rail vehicles. |
(9) |
The Memorandum of Understanding between the ECC and ETSI, signed on 20 October 2004, ensures coordination of the development of harmonised standards and the regulatory conditions for the use of the spectrum relevant to such standards. Technical details of mitigation techniques are set through ETSI-harmonised European standards and ECC Decision (06)04, and these will remain aligned in any subsequent modifications, as set out in the ECC-ETSI Memorandum of Understanding. As a result, the Commission Decision should only list appropriate mitigation techniques. |
(10) |
Decision 2007/131/EC should therefore be amended accordingly. |
(11) |
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Radio Spectrum Committee, |
