COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2016/1851
of 14 June 2016
adopting the programme of ad hoc modules, covering the years 2019, 2020 and 2021, for the labour force sample survey provided for by Council Regulation (EC) No 577/98
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 577/98 of 9 March 1998 on the organisation of a labour force sample survey in the Community (1), and in particular Article 7a(4) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
In accordance with Regulation (EC) No 577/98, it is necessary to specify the elements of the programme of ad hoc modules covering the years 2019, 2020 and 2021. |
(2) |
There is a need for a comprehensive and comparable set of data on work organisation and working time arrangements, and a need for more detailed data on labour market participation, in order to monitor progress towards the common objectives of the Europe 2020 strategy. |
(3) |
In the context of the ongoing debate on flexicurity (2) and the expressed need for greater adaptability of both enterprises and workers in Europe, a key issue highlighted in the European employment strategy and the employment guidelines (3), it is necessary to collect data with a large-scale European survey on the extent of application of various forms of new practices in work organisation and working time arrangements and the experiences of workers with these. |
(4) |
In its communication on an EU Strategic Framework on Health and Safety at Work 2014-2020 (4), the Commission underlined the importance of improving statistical data collection on work-related accidents and diseases, occupational exposures and work-related ill-health. A new ad hoc module on accidents at work and work-related health problems should make it possible to compare data transmitted by Member States under the European statistics on accidents at work project with the situation of people on the labour market, and to collect data on work-related health problems. Moreover, it should provide information on occupational exposure to risk factors for physical health and mental well-being. |
(5) |
In its communication A European Agenda on Migration (5), the Commission acknowledged the need to develop structural actions related to migration. Measures for the integration of migrants should be promoted, including initiatives to improve language and professional skills, and to ease qualifications recognition and access to the labour market. Moreover, one of the key domains targeted by Council Recommendation (EU) 2015/1184 (6) focuses on removing barriers to labour market participation and reducing employment gaps for disadvantaged people, including the gap between Union citizens and non-Union citizens. In this context, detailed data on the labour situation of migrants are needed to provide a reliable evidence base for decision-making, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The programme of ad hoc modules for the labour force sample survey, covering the years 2019, 2020 and 2021, as set out in the Annex, is adopted.
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.
Done at Brussels, 14 June 2016.

(2) Flexicurity is an integrated strategy for enhancing, at the same time, flexibility and security in the labour market. It attempts to reconcile employers' need for a flexible workforce with workers' need for security — confidence that they will not face long periods of unemployment.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2016/1852
of 19 October 2016
amending Regulation (EU) No 468/2010 establishing the EU list of vessels engaged in illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1005/2008 of 29 September 2008 establishing a Community system to prevent, deter and eliminate illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, amending Regulations (EEC) No 2847/93, (EC) No 1936/2001 and (EC) No 601/2004 and repealing Regulations (EC) No 1093/94 and (EC) No 1447/1999 (1), and in particular Article 30 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Chapter V of Regulation (EC) No 1005/2008 lays down procedures for the identification of fishing vessels engaged in illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing (‘IUU’) as well as procedures for establishing a Union list of such vessels (‘the Union list’). Article 37 of that Regulation provides for actions to be taken against fishing vessels included in that list. |
(2) |
The Union list was established by Commission Regulation (EU) No 468/2010 (2) and subsequently amended by Implementing Regulations (EU) No 724/2011 (3), (EU) No 1234/2012 (4), (EU) No 672/2013 (5), (EU) No 137/2014 (6), and (EU) 2015/1296 (7). |
(3) |
According to Article 30(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1005/2008, vessels included in the IUU vessel lists adopted by regional fisheries management organisations are to be included in the Union list. |
(4) |
All regional fishery management organisations provide for the establishment and regular up-date of IUU vessel lists in accordance with their respective rules (8). |
(5) |
According to Article 30 of Regulation (EC) No 1005/2008, upon the receipt from regional fisheries management organisations of the lists of fishing vessels presumed or confirmed to be involved in illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, the Commission is to update the Union list. Since the Commission has received new lists from the regional fisheries management organisations, the Union list should now be updated. |
(6) |
Considering that the same vessel might be listed under different names and/or flags depending on the time of its inclusion on the regional fisheries management organisations lists, the updated Union list should include the different names and/or flags as established by the relevant regional fisheries management organisations. |
(7) |
Regulation (EU) No 468/2010 should therefore be amended accordingly. |
(8) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for Fisheries and Aquaculture, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Part B of the Annex to Regulation (EU) No 468/2010 is replaced by the text in the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh 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, 19 October 2016.

fixing the allocation coefficient to be applied to the quantities covered by the applications for import licences lodged from 1 to 7 October 2016 under the tariff quotas opened by Regulation (EC) No 341/2007 for garlic
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), and in particular Article 188(1) and (3) thereof,

COMMISSION DIRECTIVE (EU) 2016/1855
of 19 October 2016
amending Directive 2009/32/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the approximation of the laws of the Member States on extraction solvents used in the production of foodstuffs and food ingredients
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Directive 2009/32/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 April 2009 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States on extraction solvents used in the production of foodstuffs and food ingredients (1), and in particular point (a) of the first subparagraph of Article 4 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Directive 2009/32/EC applies to extraction solvents used or intended for use in the production of foodstuffs or food ingredients. That Directive does not apply to extraction solvents used in the production of food additives, vitamins and other nutritional additives, unless such food additives, vitamins or nutritional additives are listed in its Annex I. |
(2) |
On 19 August 2014, an application was submitted by Akzo Nobel Industrial Chemicals BV requesting a change in the maximum residual limit (MRL) for dimethyl ether (DME) as an extraction solvent in defatted animal protein products, in particular collagen and collagen derivatives, from 0,009 mg/kg to 3 mg/kg, and a new use for the extraction of protein products to yield gelatine with a MRL of 0,009 mg/kg. That application was subsequently made available to the Member States. |
(3) |
The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) re-evaluated the safety of DME as an extraction solvent for the preparation of defatted animal protein products — collagen and gelatine — and issued its opinion on 14 July 2015 (2). The Authority concluded that the use of DME as an extraction solvent, under the intended conditions of use and with the proposed MRLs of 3 mg/kg in collagen and collagen derivatives and 0,009 mg/kg in gelatine, is of no safety concern. |
(4) |
Therefore, it is appropriate to authorise the use of dimethyl ether as an extraction solvent to remove fat from animal protein raw materials under the condition of maximum residual limits of dimethyl ether of 3 mg/kg in collagen and collagen derivatives and of 0,009 mg/kg in gelatine. |
(5) |
Directive 2009/32/EC should therefore be amended accordingly. |
(6) |
The measures provided for in this Directive are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:
Article 1
Annex I to Directive 2009/32/EC is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Directive.
Article 2
1. Member States shall bring into force the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with this Directive not later than two years after the date of entry into force of this Directive. 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 twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
Article 4
This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

ANNEX
In Part II of Annex I to Directive 2009/32/EC, the row for ‘Dimethyl ether’ is replaced by the following:
‘Dimethyl ether |

0,009 mg/kg in the defatted animal protein products including gelatine |
Preparation of collagen (**) and collagen derivatives, except gelatine |
3 mg/kg in the collagen and collagen derivatives, except gelatine |
(*) ‘Gelatine’ means natural, soluble protein, gelling or non-gelling, obtained by the partial hydrolysis of collagen produced from bones, hides and skins, tendons and sinews of animals, in accordance with the relevant requirements of Regulation (EC) No 853/2004.
(**) ‘Collagen’ means the protein-based product derived from animal bones, hides, skins and tendons manufactured in accordance with the relevant requirements of Regulation (EC) No 853/2004.’

DECISION (EU) 2016/1856 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL
of 11 October 2016
on the mobilisation of the European Union Solidarity Fund to provide assistance to Greece
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2012/2002 of 11 November 2002 establishing the European Union Solidarity Fund (1), and in particular Article 4(3) thereof,
Having regard to the Interinstitutional Agreement of 2 December 2013 between the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on budgetary discipline, on cooperation in budgetary matters and on sound financial management (2), and in particular point 11 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) |
The European Union Solidarity Fund (‘the Fund’) aims to enable the Union to respond in a rapid, efficient and flexible manner to emergency situations in order to show solidarity with the population of regions struck by natural disasters. |
(2) |
The Fund is not to exceed a maximum annual amount of EUR 500 000 000 (2011 prices), as laid down in Article 10 of Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 1311/2013 (3). |
(3) |
On 5 February 2016, Greece submitted an application to mobilise the Fund, following an earthquake that affected the Ionian Islands in November 2015. |
(4) |
The application by Greece meets the conditions for providing a financial contribution from the Fund, as laid down in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 2012/2002. |
(5) |
The Fund should therefore be mobilised in order to provide a financial contribution to Greece. |
(6) |
By Decision (EU) 2016/252 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4) the European Union Solidarity Fund was mobilised to provide the sum of EUR 50 million in commitment and payment appropriations for the payment of advances for the financial year 2016. Those appropriations have only been used to a very limited extent. Consequently, there is scope for financing the full amount for the present mobilisation through the reallocation of appropriations available for the payment of advances in the general budget of the Union for the financial year 2016. |
(7) |
In order to minimise the time taken to mobilise the Fund, this Decision should apply from the date of its adoption, |
HAVE ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
For the general budget of the Union for the financial year 2016, the European Union Solidarity Fund shall be mobilised to provide the amount of EUR 1 651 834 to Greece, in commitment and payment appropriations.
The amount of the mobilisation referred to in the first paragraph shall be financed from the appropriations mobilised for the payment of advances in the Union budget for the financial year 2016. The appropriations available for the payment of advances shall be reduced accordingly.
Article 2
This Decision shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 11 October 2016.

of 11 October 2016
on the mobilisation of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (following an application from Finland — EGF/2016/001 FI/Microsoft)
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1309/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 on the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (2014-2020) and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1927/2006 (1), and in particular Article 15(4) thereof,
Having regard to the Interinstitutional Agreement of 2 December 2013 between the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on budgetary discipline, on cooperation in budgetary matters and on sound financial management (2), and in particular point 13 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) |
The European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) aims to provide support for workers made redundant and self-employed persons whose activity has ceased as a result of major structural changes in world trade patterns due to globalisation, as a result of a continuation of the global financial and economic crisis, or as a result of a new global financial and economic crisis, and to assist them with their reintegration into the labour market. |
(2) |
The EGF is not to exceed a maximum annual amount of EUR 150 million (2011 prices), as laid down in Article 12 of Council Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 1311/2013 (3). |
(3) |

That application complies with the requirements for determining a financial contribution from the EGF as laid down in Article 13 of Regulation (EU) No 1309/2013. |
(4) |
The EGF should, therefore, be mobilised in order to provide a financial contribution of EUR 5 364 000 in respect of the application submitted by Finland. |
(5) |
In order to minimise the time taken to mobilise the EGF, this decision should apply from the date of its adoption, |

COUNCIL DECISION (EU) 2016/1859
of 13 October 2016
on the Tripartite Social Summit for Growth and Employment and repealing Decision 2003/174/EC
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 352 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 consent of the European Parliament,
Acting in accordance with a special legislative procedure,
Whereas:
(1) |
Article 3(3) of the Treaty on European Union (TEU) provides that one of the objectives of the Union is to work for a highly competitive social market economy, aiming at full employment and social progress. |
(2) |
In defining and implementing its policies and activities, the Union is to take into account their social dimension, in particular the requirements linked to the promotion of a high level of employment, the guarantee of adequate social protection, the fight against social exclusion, and a high level of education, training and protection of human health, in accordance with Article 9 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). |
(3) |
The Union recognises and promotes the role of the social partners at its level and facilitates dialogue between them while respecting their autonomy, in accordance with Article 152 TFEU. To promote a high-level concertation with the European social partners on the overall strategy set up by the Lisbon European Council of 23 and 24 March 2000, Council Decision 2003/174/EC (1) established a Tripartite Social Summit for Growth and Employment (‘the Summit’). The Summit is now recognised in Article 152 TFEU as an integral component of social dialogue at Union level. |
(4) |
The Union and its Member States are committed to cooperating within the framework of the Europe 2020 strategy, an integrated strategy designed to boost the Union's potential for growth and jobs over the period 2010-2020 (‘the Europe 2020 strategy’). The Europe 2020 strategy aims to increase coordination between national and Union policies. In addition, the Union has recognised the need to enhance the social partners' ownership of and involvement in that strategy, to enable the social partners to actively contribute to the implementation of that strategy's objectives. |
(5) |
Regulation (EU) No 1175/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) underlines that social partners shall be involved within the framework of the European Semester, on the main policy issues where appropriate, in accordance with the provisions of the TFEU and national legal and political arrangements. |
(6) |
In its conclusions of 28 June 2013, the European Council noted that the social dimension of the Economic and Monetary Union should be strengthened, and highlighted in this context the key role of the social partners and social dialogue. Accordingly, the Commission in its Communication of 2 October 2013 entitled ‘Strengthening the social dimension of the Economic and Monetary Union’, addressed the issue of the promotion of social dialogue at national and Union level, and announced a proposal to review Decision 2003/174/EC, referring to the Summit as an opportunity to involve the social partners in the European Semester process. |
(7) |
Since its establishment pursuant to Decision 2003/174/EC, the Summit has fulfilled its key role to enable high-level concertation. It has contributed positively to the development of social dialogue at Union level under the Lisbon Strategy over the period 2000-2010, and under the Europe 2020 strategy. |
(8) |
In their joint Declaration on Social Partner Involvement in European Economic Governance of 24 October 2013, signed by the European Trade Union Confederation (ETUC) on the workers' side, and by the Confederation of European Business (BUSINESSEUROPE), the European Centre of Employers and Enterprises providing Public services (CEEP) and the European Association of Craft, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (UEAPME) on the employers' side, the European social partners called for a coherent process of consultation of the social partners in the context of the European Semester, and confirmed their support for the Summit. |
(9) |
The tasks and the membership of the Summit should be adapted in order to take into account the institutional changes introduced by the Treaty of Lisbon, in particular the creation of the function of President of the European Council, as laid down in Article 15 TEU. |
(10) |
This Decision is without prejudice to the organisation and operation of the national systems of industrial relations and social dialogue. |
(11) |
The TFEU does not provide, for the adoption of this Decision, powers other than those under Article 352 TFEU. |
(12) |
Decision 2003/174/EC should therefore be repealed, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
Task
The task of the Tripartite Social Summit for Growth and Employment shall be to ensure, in compliance with the TFEU and the TEU and with due regard for the powers of the institutions and bodies of the Union, that there is a continuous concertation between the European Council, the Council, the Commission and the social partners. The Summit shall enable the European social partners to contribute, in the context of their social dialogue, to the various components of the Union's strategy for growth and jobs. It shall facilitate synergies between the actions of the European Council, the Council, the Commission and the social partners aimed at the promotion of growth, a high level of employment, the guarantee of adequate social protection, the fight against social exclusion and a high level of education, training and protection of human health. For that purpose, it shall draw on the upstream work of and discussions between the Council, the Commission and the social partners in the different concertation forums on economic, social and employment matters.

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 508/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 May 2014 on the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund and repealing Council Regulations (EC) No 2328/2003, (EC) No 861/2006, (EC) No 1198/2006 and (EC) No 791/2007 and Regulation (EU) No 1255/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council (1), in particular Article 129(2) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 861/2006 of 22 May 2006 establishing Community financial measures for the implementation of the common fisheries policy and in the area of the Law of the Sea (2), and in particular Article 21 thereof,

(2) |
The Commission fixed in its Implementing Decision 2012/830/EU (3) the maximum amount by project and the rate of the Union financial contribution within the limits set by Article 15 of Regulation (EC) No 861/2006 and laid down the conditions under which such contribution may be granted. |

EFTA SURVEILLANCE AUTHORITY DECISION
No 36/16/COL
of 9 February 2016
to partially repeal Decision No 227/04/COL as regards the status for Iceland for Viral Haemorrhagic Septicaemia (VHS) [2016/1862]
THE EFTA SURVEILLANCE AUTHORITY,
Having regard to the Act referred to at point 5a of Part 4.1 of Chapter I of Annex I to the EEA Agreement (Council Directive 2006/88/EC of 24 October 2006 on animal health requirements for aquaculture animals and products thereof, and on the prevention and control of certain diseases in aquatic animals (1)), as adapted to the EEA Agreement by point 4(d) of Protocol 1 to the EEA Agreement and Article 1(2) and Article 3 of Protocol 1 to the Surveillance and Court Agreement,
Having regard to Decision No 494/13/COL of the EFTA Surveillance Authority (‘the Authority’) of 11 December 2013 empowering the College Member with special responsibility for veterinary and phytosanitary matters to take certain decisions in that field (Document No 683826),
Whereas:
By Decision No 227/04/COL, the Authority recognised the whole continental and coastal area of Iceland as free from Infectious Haematopoietic Necrosis (IHN) and Viral Haemorraghic Septicaemia (VHS).
On 23 October 2015, Iceland notified through the Animal Disease Notification System an outbreak of VHS in lumpfish of wild origin used as brood fish in the Landnamsholf region. Further information regarding the measures taken were provided by letter of 13 November 2015 (Document No 780869, IS ref. ANR15110004/20.5).
In light of the above, the VHS-free status for Iceland, as recognised by Decision No 227/04/COL, should be withdrawn.
No changes have occurred as regards Iceland's status for IHN.
It is therefore appropriate to repeal Decision No 227/04/COL as regards Iceland's VHS-status only.
This Decision is in accordance with the opinion of the EFTA Veterinary and Phytosanitary Committee.
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
1. |
Decision No 227/04/COL is repealed as regards Iceland's status for Viral Haemorrhagic Septicaemia. |
2. |
Decision No 227/04/COL remains in force as regards Iceland's status for Infectious Haematopoietic Necrosis. |
3. |
This Decision is addressed to Iceland. |

EFTA SURVEILLANCE AUTHORITY DECISION
No 58/16/COL-D
of 3 March 2016
to approve national measures by Norway limiting the impact of Gyrodactylus salaris and to repeal Decisions No 298/08/COL and No 299/08/COL [2016/1863]
THE EFTA SURVEILLANCE AUTHORITY,
Having regard to the Act referred to at point 5a of Part 4.1 of Chapter I of Annex I to the EEA Agreement (Council Directive 2006/88/EC of 24 October 2006 on animal health requirements for aquaculture animals and products thereof, and on the prevention and control of certain diseases in aquatic animals (1)), as adapted to the EEA Agreement by point 4(d) of Protocol 1 to the EEA Agreement and Articles 1(2) and 3 of Protocol 1 to the Surveillance and Court Agreement.
Having regard to Decision No 494/13/COL of the EFTA Surveillance Authority (‘the Authority’) of 11 December 2013 empowering the College Member with special responsibility for veterinary and phytosanitary matters to take certain decisions and measures (Document No 683826),
Whereas:
(1) |
EFTA Surveillance Authority Decision No 298/08/COL (2) established disease-free zones and additional guarantees for Gyrodactylus salaris for Norway pursuant to Article 13 of Council Directive 91/67/EEC (3) and Article 5 of Commission Decision 2004/453/EC (4). |
(2) |
Pursuant to Decision No 298/08/COL, Norway may require additional guarantees for consignments of live aquaculture fish of susceptible species intended for farming, which are to be introduced to the zones affected by the Decision. Those additional guarantees consist of the requirement that those consignments must originate from an area with equivalent health status as the place of destination. |
(3) |
Directive 2006/88/EC repealed and replaced Directive 91/67/EEC. Directive 2006/88/EC also provided that Decision 2004/453/EC was to continue to apply pending the adoption of the necessary provisions in accordance with that Directive. Such provisions were adopted by Commission Decision 2010/221/EU (5) which also definitely repealed Decision 2004/453/EC (6). It is therefore appropriate to repeal and replace Decision No 298/08/COL. |
(4) |
Article 43 of Directive 2006/88/EC provides that an EEA State may take measures to prevent the introduction of, or to control diseases not listed in Part II of Annex IV thereto which constitute a significant risk for the animal health situation of aquaculture animals or wild aquatic animals in that State. Those measures are not to exceed the limits of what is appropriate and necessary to prevent the introduction of, or control of, such diseases. |
(5) |
Norway was granted the right to require additional guarantees pursuant to Decision No 298/08/COL and have provided the Authority with information on the disease situation as regards Gyrodactylus salaris. By letter of 6 October 2015 (Document No 775798, NO ref. 2015/193600), Norway provided updated information about the national measures for Gyrodactylus salaris. The information provided demonstrates the appropriateness and necessity of continuing requiring national measures in the form of placing on the market, import and transit requirements, in accordance with Article 43 of Directive 2006/88/EC. |
(6) |
Consequently, as Norway was granted the right to require additional guarantees in accordance with Decision No 298/08/COL for the introduction of aquaculture animals of susceptible species into approved disease-free areas or areas with approved control or eradication programmes, Norway should be allowed to continue to apply these measures as national measures approved in accordance with Article 43 of Directive 2006/88/EC. |
(7) |
The national measures approved by this Decision should only be applied as long as they are appropriate and necessary. Therefore, Norway should send a yearly report to the Authority on the functioning of the national measures. |
(8) |
Any suspicion of the presence of Gyrodactylus salaris in Norway, with the exception of the areas listed in the Annex to this Decision, should be investigated and during the investigation movement restrictions should be applied to protect other EEA States with approved national measures as regards Gyrodactylus salaris. In addition, to facilitate the necessary reassessment of the approved national measures, any subsequent disease confirmation should be notified to the EFTA Surveillance Authority and to the other EEA States. |
(9) |
In the interest of clarity, Decision No 298/08/COL should be expressly repealed. |
(10) |
Moreover, EFTA Surveillance Authority Decision No 299/08/COL (7) approved the Norwegian control and eradication programme for bacterial kidney disease (BKD). By letter of 6 October 2015 (Document No 775798), Norway informed the Authority that the control and eradication programme for BKD had been discontinued. It is therefore appropriate to repeal Decision No 299/08/COL. |
(11) |
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the EFTA Veterinary and Phytosanitary Committee, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
Approval of certain national measures for limiting the impact of certain diseases not listed in Part II of Annex IV to Directive 2006/88/EC
1. Norway, with the exceptions of areas listed in the Annex to this Decision, shall be regarded as free of Gyrodactylus salaris.
2. Norway may require that the following consignments introduced into a disease-free area comply with the requirements set out in points (a) and (b) with respect to those areas regarded free of Gyrodactylus salaris:
(a) |
aquaculture animals intended for farming, relaying areas, put and take fisheries, open ornamental facilities and restocking must comply with:
|
(b) |
ornamental aquatic animals intended for closed ornamental facilities must comply with:
|
Article 2
Reporting
1. By 30 April each year at the latest, Norway shall submit a report to the EFTA Surveillance Authority on the approved national measures referred to in Article 1.
2. The reports provided for in paragraph 1 shall conform to the requirements of Article 4 of Decision 2010/221/EU.
Article 3
Suspicion and detection of diseases in disease-free areas
1. Where Norway suspects the presence of a disease in an area which is listed as a disease-free area for Gyrodactylus salaris, Norway shall take measures at least equivalent to those laid down in Article 28, Article 29(2), (3) and (4) and Article 30 of Directive 2006/88/EC.
2. Where the epizootic investigation confirms the detection of the disease referred to in paragraph 1, Norway shall inform the EFTA Surveillance Authority and the other EEA States thereof, and of any measures taken to contain and control that disease.
Article 4
Repeal
Decisions No 298/08/COL and No 299/08/COL are repealed.
