COUNCIL REGULATION (EU) 2016/2145
of 1 December 2016
amending Regulation (EU) No 1370/2013 determining measures on fixing certain aids and refunds related to the common organisation of the markets in agricultural products
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 43(3) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) |
By its judgment of 7 September 2016 in Case C-113/14 (1), the Court of Justice of the European Union (‘the Court’) annulled Article 7 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) determining the reference thresholds for agricultural products on the grounds that those thresholds should have been adopted by the Council only, on a proposal from the Commission, on the basis of Article 43(3) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). |
(2) |
The Court also annulled Article 2 of Council Regulation (EU) No 1370/2013 (3) determining the level of the public intervention prices on the grounds that that Article is inextricably linked to the annulled Article 7 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013. |
(3) |
The Court declared that the legal effects of Article 7 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 and of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No 1370/2013 were to be maintained for a maximum period of five months from the date of delivery of the judgment. |
(4) |
It is therefore necessary to amend Regulation (EU) No 1370/2013 before the end of the five-month period by respectively inserting and amending the provisions on the reference thresholds and intervention price levels annulled by the Court and by making certain consequential adjustments. |
(5) |
In view of the time-limit set by the Court in its judgment, this Regulation should enter into force on the date of its publication, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Regulation (EU) No 1370/2013 is amended as follows:
(1) |
The following Article is inserted: ‘Article 1a Reference thresholds 1. The following reference thresholds are fixed:
2. The reference thresholds provided for in paragraph 1 shall be kept under review by the Commission, taking account of objective criteria, in particular developments in production, costs of production (particularly inputs) and market trends. When necessary, the reference thresholds shall be updated in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 43(3) TFEU in the light of developments in production and markets. 3. References to reference thresholds in Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 shall be construed as references to the thresholds fixed in paragraph 1 of this Article.’. |
(2) |
Article 2 is replaced by the following: ‘Article 2 Public intervention prices 1. The level of the public intervention price:
2. The public intervention prices for common wheat, durum wheat, barley, maize and paddy rice referred to in paragraph 1 shall be adjusted by price increases or reductions to those prices based on the main quality criteria for the products. 3. The Commission shall adopt implementing acts determining the increases or reductions to the public intervention prices of the products referred to in paragraph 2 of this Article under the conditions laid down therein. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 15(2).’. |

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2016/2146
of 7 December 2016
withdrawing the acceptance of the undertaking for two exporting producers under Implementing Decision 2013/707/EU confirming the acceptance of an undertaking offered in connection with the anti-dumping and anti-subsidy proceedings concerning imports of crystalline silicon photovoltaic modules and key components (i.e. cells) originating in or consigned from the People's Republic of China for the period of application of definitive measures
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (‘the Treaty’),
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2016/1036 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2016 on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Union (1) (‘the basic anti-dumping Regulation’), and in particular Article 8 thereof,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2016/1037 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2016 on protection against subsidised imports from countries not members of the European Union (2) (‘the basic anti-subsidy Regulation’), and in particular Article 13 thereof,
Informing the Member States,
Whereas:
A. UNDERTAKING AND OTHER EXISTING MEASURES
(1) |
By Regulation (EU) No 513/2013 (3), the European Commission (‘the Commission’) imposed a provisional anti-dumping duty on imports into the European Union (‘the Union’) of crystalline silicon photovoltaic modules (‘modules’) and key components (i.e. cells and wafers) originating in or consigned from the People's Republic of China (‘the PRC’). |
(2) |
A group of exporting producers gave a mandate to the China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Machinery and Electronic Products (‘CCCME’) to submit a price undertaking on their behalf to the Commission, which they did. It is clear from the terms of that price undertaking that it constitutes a bundle of individual price undertakings for each exporting producer, which is, for reasons of practicality of administration, coordinated by the CCCME. |
(3) |
By Decision 2013/423/EU (4), the Commission accepted that price undertaking with regard to the provisional anti-dumping duty. By Regulation (EU) No 748/2013 (5), the Commission amended Regulation (EU) No 513/2013 to introduce the technical changes necessary due to the acceptance of the undertaking with regard to the provisional anti-dumping duty. |
(4) |
By Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1238/2013 (6), the Council imposed a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports into the Union of modules and cells originating in or consigned from the PRC (‘the products concerned’). By Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1239/2013 (7), the Council also imposed a definitive countervailing duty on imports into the Union of the products concerned. |
(5) |
Following the notification of an amended version of the price undertaking by a group of exporting producers (‘the exporting producers’) together with the CCCME, the Commission confirmed by Implementing Decision 2013/707/EU (8) the acceptance of the price undertaking as amended (‘the undertaking’) for the period of application of definitive measures. The Annex to this Decision lists the exporting producers for whom the undertaking was accepted, inter alia:
|
(6) |
By Implementing Decision 2014/657/EU (9) the Commission accepted a proposal by the exporting producers together with the CCCME for clarifications concerning the implementation of the undertaking for the products concerned covered by the undertaking, that is modules and cells originating in or consigned from the PRC, currently falling within CN codes ex 8541 40 90 (TARIC codes 8541409021, 8541409029, 8541409031 and 8541409039) produced by the exporting producers (‘product covered’). The anti-dumping and countervailing duties referred to in recital (4) above, together with the undertaking, are jointly referred to as ‘measures’. |
(7) |
By Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/866 (10) the Commission withdrew the acceptance of the undertaking for three exporting producers. |
(8) |
By Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/1403 (11) the Commission withdrew the acceptance of the undertaking for another exporting producer. |
(9) |
By Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2018 (12) the Commission withdrew the acceptance of the undertaking for two exporting producers. |
(10) |
The Commission initiated an expiry review investigation of the anti-dumping measures by a Notice of Initiation published in the Official Journal of the European Union (13) on 5 December 2015. |
(11) |
The Commission initiated an expiry review investigation of the countervailing measures by a Notice of Initiation published in the Official Journal of the European Union (14) on 5 December 2015. |
(12) |
The Commission also initiated a partial interim review of the anti-dumping and countervailing measures by a Notice of Initiation published in the Official Journal of the European Union (15) on 5 December 2015. |
(13) |
By Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/115 (16) the Commission withdrew the acceptance of the undertaking for another exporting producer. |
(14) |
By Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/185 (17), the Commission extended the definitive anti-dumping duty imposed by Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1238/2013 on imports of the products concerned originating in or consigned from the People's Republic of China to imports of the product concerned consigned from Malaysia and Taiwan, whether declared as originating in Malaysia and in Taiwan or not. |
(15) |
By Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/184 (18), the Commission extended the definitive countervailing duty imposed by Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1239/2013 on imports of the products concerned originating in or consigned from the People's Republic of China to imports of the product concerned consigned from Malaysia and Taiwan, whether declared as originating in Malaysia and in Taiwan or not. |
(16) |
By Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1045 (19) the Commission withdrew the acceptance of the undertaking for another exporting producer. |
(17) |
By Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1382 (20) the Commission withdrew the acceptance of the undertaking for another five exporting producers. |
(18) |
By Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1402 (21) the Commission withdrew the acceptance of the undertaking for another three exporting producers. |
(19) |
By Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1998 (22) the Commission withdrew the acceptance of the undertaking for another five exporting producers. |
B. TERMS OF THE UNDERTAKING
(20) |
The exporting producers agreed, inter alia, not to sell the product covered to the first independent customer in the Union below a certain minimum import price (‘the MIP’) within the associated annual level of imports to the Union (‘annual level’) laid down in the undertaking. |
(21) |
The exporting producers also agreed to sell the product covered only by means of direct sales. For the purpose of the undertaking, a direct sale is defined as a sale either to the first independent customer in the Union or via a related party in the Union listed in the undertaking. |
(22) |
The undertaking sets out, in a non-exhaustive list, the breaches of the undertaking. The list of breaches includes indirect sales to the Union by companies other than those listed in the undertaking. |
(23) |
The undertaking also obliges the exporting producers to provide the Commission on a quarterly basis with detailed information on all their export sales to and re-sales in the Union (‘the quarterly reports’). This implies that the data submitted in these quarterly reports must be complete and correct and the reported transactions fully comply with the terms of the undertaking. Reporting of re-sales in the Union is a particular obligation when the product covered is sold to the first independent customer through a related importer. Only these reports enable the Commission to monitor whether the re-sale price of the related importer to the first independent customer is in accordance the MIP. |
(24) |
The exporting producer is liable for the breach of any of its related parties, whether or not listed in the undertaking. |
C. MONITORING OF THE EXPORTING PRODUCERS AND VOLUNTARY WITHDRAWAL
(25) |
While monitoring compliance with the undertaking, the Commission verified information submitted by Huashun China and Seraphim China that was relevant to the undertaking. The Commission also assessed publicly available information regarding the corporate structure of the two companies. |
(26) |
The findings set out in recitals 27 to 30 address the problems identified for Huashun China and Seraphim China which oblige the Commission to withdraw the acceptance of the undertaking for these exporting producers. |
D. GROUNDS TO WITHDRAW THE ACCEPTANCE OF THE UNDERTAKING
(a) Sales by Huashun China
(27) |
In its quarterly reports, Huashun China had reported numerous sales transaction of the product covered to an allegedly unrelated importer in the Union and had issued undertaking invoices. Based on the information available to the Commission, the importer involved in these transactions was however related to Huashun China. As this importer is not listed as related party in the undertaking, Huashun China breached the terms of the undertaking as described in recitals 20 to 22. |
(28) |
None of the re-sales by the related importer was reported to the Commission. Consequently, Huashun China also breached the terms of the undertaking as described in recital 23 and 24. |
(b) Sales by Seraphim China
(29) |
In its quarterly reports, Seraphim China had reported numerous sales transactions of the product covered to an allegedly unrelated importer in the Union and had issued undertaking invoices. Based on the information available to the Commission, the importer involved in the above transactions was related to Seraphim China. As this importer is not listed as related party in the undertaking, Seraphim China breached the terms of the undertaking as described in recitals 20 to 22. |
(30) |
None of the re-sales by the related importer was reported to the Commission. Consequently, Seraphim China also breached the terms of the undertaking as described in recital 23 and 24. |
E. INVALIDATION OF UNDERTAKING INVOICES
(31) |
The indirect sales transactions made by Huashun China and Seraphim China are linked to the following undertaking invoices:
|
(32) |
Therefore, in accordance with Article 3(2)(b) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1238/2013 and Article 2(2)(b) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1239/2013, these invoices are declared invalid. The customs debt incurred at the time of acceptance of the declaration for release into free circulation should be recovered by the national customs authorities under Article 105(3)-(6) of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (23) when the withdrawal of the undertaking in relation to the two exporting producers enters into force. The national customs authorities responsible for the collection of duties will be informed accordingly. |
(33) |
In this context, the Commission recalls that pursuant to Article 3(1)(b) read in conjunction with Annex III, Nr. 7 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1238/2013 and to Article 2(1)(b) read in conjunction with Annex 2, Nr. 7 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1239/2013, imports are only exempted from duties if the invoice indicates the price and possible rebates. Where those conditions are not complied with, duties are due, even where the commercial invoice accompanying the goods has not been invalidated by the Commission. |
F. ASSESSMENT OF PRACTICABILITY OF THE OVERALL UNDERTAKING
(34) |
The undertaking stipulates that a breach by an individual exporting producer does not automatically lead to the withdrawal of the acceptance of the undertaking for all exporting producers. In such a case, the Commission shall assess the impact of that particular breach on the practicability of the undertaking with the effect for all exporting producers and the CCCME. |
(35) |
The Commission has accordingly assessed the impact of the breaches by Huashun China and Seraphim China on the practicability of the undertaking with the effect for all exporting producers and the CCCME. |
(36) |
The responsibility for the breaches lies alone with the exporting producers in question; the monitoring has not revealed any systematic breaches by a major number of exporting producers or the CCCME. |
(37) |
The Commission therefore concludes that the overall functioning of the undertaking is not affected and that there are no grounds for withdrawal of the acceptance of the undertaking for all exporting producers and the CCCME. |
G. WRITTEN SUBMISSIONS AND HEARINGS
(38) |
Interested parties were granted the opportunity to be heard and to comment pursuant to Article 8(9) of the basic anti-dumping Regulation and Article 13(9) of the basic anti-subsidy Regulation. |
(39) |
Both exporting producers submitted comments after the disclosure. One exporting producer contested the relationship alleging that the importer in the Union was owned by another person than the exporting producer. The Commission sent additional evidence confirming the relationship between that exporting producer and the importer in the Union. The exporting producer did not further react. Therefore, the claim is rejected. |
(40) |
The other exporting producer made a general statement contesting the Commission's evidence of the relationship, without further substantiating it. The Commission notes that the exporting producer has not contested the relationship itself. The Commission also notes that the relationship has been declared by the exporting producer in the sampling replies in the ongoing expiry review of the measures in force. |
(41) |
Furthermore, one exporting producer requested a hearing but did not follow up on the request. |
(42) |
The same exporting producer contested the invalidation of invoices. It claimed that the Commission cannot impose duties/order customs to levy duties on imports released for free circulation before the date of the withdrawal of the acceptance of the undertaking if imports have not been registered. The claim is based on an understanding that the Commission may decide to impose provisional duties before the withdrawal of the acceptance of the undertaking. According to Article 8(10) of the basic anti-dumping Regulation and Article 13(10) of the basic anti-subsidy Regulation, a provisional duty may be imposed in case where the investigation that led to the undertaking has not been completed. This is not the case in the case at hand where the investigations have been completed with the imposition of definitive anti-dumping and countervailing duties. Consequently, in accordance with Article 8(9) of the basic anti-dumping Regulation and Article 13(9) of the basic anti-subsidy Regulation, in case of breach or withdrawal of the acceptance of the undertaking by the Commission, the definitive duties shall automatically apply. The claim is therefore rejected. |
(43) |
This exporting producer also claimed that the Commission has itself recognised that there is no legal basis for retroactive withdrawal (24). The Commission notes that the withdrawal in the present case is not retroactive. It is a withdrawal of the acceptance of the undertaking combined with invalidation of undertaking invoices. The Commission's response on retroactive withdrawal was also specific to the circumstances of the particular withdrawal and particular claim made by one of the parties in that case. The claim is therefore rejected. |
H. WITHDRAWAL OF THE ACCEPTANCE OF THE UNDERTAKING AND IMPOSITIONS OF DEFINITIVE DUTIES
(44) |
Therefore, in accordance with Article 8(9) of the basic anti-dumping Regulation, Article 13(9) of the basic anti-subsidy Regulation and also in accordance with the terms of the undertaking, the Commission has concluded that the acceptance of the undertaking for Huashun China and Seraphim China should be withdrawn. |
(45) |
Accordingly, pursuant to Article 8(9) of the basic anti-dumping Regulation and Article 13(9) of the basic anti-subsidy Regulation, the definitive anti-dumping duty imposed by Article 1 of Council Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1238/2013 and the definitive countervailing duty imposed by Article 1 of Council Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1239/2013 automatically apply to imports originating in or consigned from the PRC of the product concerned and produced by Ningbo Huashun Solar Energy Technology Co. Ltd, covered by the TARIC additional code: B856 and, Jiangsu Seraphim Solar System Co. Ltd covered by the TARIC additional code: B836 as of the day of entry into force of this Regulation. |
(46) |
Where the customs authorities of the Member States have indications that the price presented on an undertaking invoice does not correspond to the price actually paid, they should investigate whether the requirement to include any rebates in the undertaking invoices has been violated or the MIP has not been respected. Where customs authorities of the Member States conclude that there has been such a violation or whether the MIP has not been respected, they should collect the duties as a consequence thereof. In order to facilitate, on the basis of Article 4(3) of the Treaty, the work of the customs authorities of the Member States, the Commission should share in such situations the confidential text and other information of the undertaking for the sole purpose of national proceedings. |
(47) |
For information purposes the table in Annex II to this Regulation lists the exporting producers for whom the acceptance of the undertaking by Implementing Decision 2013/707/EU is not affected, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Acceptance of the undertaking in relation to Ningbo Huashun Solar Energy Technology Co. Ltd, covered by the TARIC additional code: B856 and Jiangsu Seraphim Solar System Co. Ltd covered by the TARIC additional code: B836 is hereby withdrawn.
Article 2
1. The undertaking invoices listed in Annex I to this Regulation are declared invalid.
2. The anti-dumping and countervailing duties due at the time of acceptance of the customs declaration for release into free circulation under Article 3(2)(b) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1238/2013 and Article 2(2)(b) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1239/2013 shall be collected.
Article 3
1. Where customs authorities have indications that the price presented on an undertaking invoice pursuant to Article 3(1)(b) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1238/2013 and Article 2(1)(b) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1239/2013 issued by a company mentioned in Article 1 prior to the entry into force of this regulation does not correspond to the price paid and that therefore those companies may have violated the undertaking, the customs authorities may, if necessary for the purpose of conducting national proceedings, request the Commission to disclose to them a copy of the undertaking and other information in order to verify the applicable minimum import price (‘MIP’) on the day when the undertaking invoice was issued.
2. Where that verification reveals that the price paid is lower than the MIP, the duties due as a consequence under Article 8(9) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1036 and Article 13(9) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1037 shall be collected.
Where that verification reveals that discounts and rebates have not been included in the commercial invoice, the duties due as a consequence under Article 3(2)(a) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1238/2013 and Article 2(2)(a) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1239/2013 shall be collected.
3. The information in accordance with paragraph 1 may only be used for the purpose of enforcement of duties due under Article 3(2)(a) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1238/2013 and Article 2(2)(a) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1239/2013. In this context, customs authorities of the Member States may provide the debtor of those duties with this information for the sole purpose of safeguarding their rights of defence. Such information may under no circumstances be disclosed to third parties.
Article 4
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 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) 2016/2147
of 7 December 2016
authorising an increase of the limits for the enrichment of wine produced using the grapes harvested in 2016 in certain wine-growing regions of Germany and in all wine-growing regions of Hungary
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 91 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Point A.3 of Part I of Annex VIII to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 provides that Member States may request that the limits for increasing the alcoholic strength (enrichment) of wine by volume be raised by up to 0,5 % in years in which climatic conditions have been exceptionally unfavourable. |
(2) |
Germany and Hungary have requested such increases of the limits for enrichment of the wine produced using the grapes harvested in the year 2016, as climatic conditions during the growing season have been exceptionally unfavourable. Such request has been made by Hungary for all its wine-growing regions. Germany requested the increase of enrichment only for wine made from red wine grape varieties for the regions of Baden Ahr, Mittelrhein, Mosel, Nahe, Pfalz, Rheinhessen and Württemberg. |
(3) |
Due to the exceptionally adverse weather conditions during 2016, the limits on increases in the natural alcoholic strength provided for in point A.2 of Part I of Annex VIII to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 do not enable the production of wine with an appropriate total alcoholic strength from all or certain grape varieties in certain wine-growing regions for which there would normally be market demand. |
(4) |
It is therefore appropriate to authorise an increase of the limits for the enrichment of wine produced using all or certain varieties of wine grapes harvested in 2016 in wine growing regions in Hungary and Germany. |
(5) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
By way of derogation from point A.3 of Part I of Annex VIII to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013, in the wine-growing regions or a part thereof listed in the Annex to this Regulation and for all or certain wine grape varieties as specified in that Annex, the increase in natural alcoholic strength by volume of fresh grapes harvested in the year 2016, grape must, grape must in fermentation, new wine still in fermentation and wine produced using the grapes harvested in the year 2016, shall not exceed the following limits:
(a) |
3,5 % vol. in wine-growing zone A referred to in appendix I to Annex VII to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013; |
(b) |
2,5 % vol. in wine-growing zone B referred to in appendix I to Annex VII to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013; |
(c) |
2,0 % vol. in wine-growing zone C referred to in appendix I to Annex VII to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013. |
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.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 7 December 2016.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2016/2148
of 7 December 2016
laying down rules for the management and distribution of textile quotas established for the year 2017 under Regulation (EU) 2015/936 of the European Parliament and of the Council
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2015/936 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 June 2015 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 Union import rules (1), and in particular Article 17(3) and (6) and Article 21(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Regulation (EU) 2015/936 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 Regulation (EU) 2015/936 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 the management and distribution of textile quotas established for the year 2017 should be adopted before the quota year begins so that the continuity of trade flows is not unduly affected. |
(4) |
The measures adopted in previous years, such as those in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2106 (2), proved to be satisfactory and it is therefore appropriate to adopt similar rules for 2017. |
(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 that can be allocated to each operator by that method. |
(6) |
In order to guarantee a degree of continuity in trade and efficient quota administration, operators should be allowed to make their initial import authorisation application for 2017 equivalent to the quantity that they imported in 2016. |
(7) |
In order to achieve optimum use of the quantities, an operator who has used at least half of the amount already authorised should be permitted to apply for a further amount, provided that quantities are available in the quotas. |
(8) |
In order to secure a sound administration, import authorisations should be valid for nine months from the date of issue until the end of the year at the latest. Member States should issue authorisations only after being notified by the Commission that quantities are available and only if operators can prove the existence of a contract and can certify, in the absence of a specific provision to the contrary, that they have not yet been granted a Union import authorisation under this Regulation for the categories and countries concerned. The competent national authorities should, however, be authorised, in response to an importer's application, to extend by three months and until 31 March 2018 the validity of an authorisation provided that at least half of the allocated quantity 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 30 of Regulation (EU) 2015/936, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
This Regulation lays down rules on the management of quantitative quotas for imports of certain textile products set out in Annex III to Regulation (EU) 2015/936 for the year 2017.
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 2017, that, in respect of given categories and given third countries, they imported more than the maximum quantities specified for each category pursuant to import authorisations granted to them for 2016.
In the case of such operators, the competent authorities may authorise imports not exceeding the quantities imported in 2016 from given third countries and in given categories, provided that enough quota capacity is available.
Article 3
Importers who have already used 50 per cent or more of the amount allocated to them 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 a.m., Brussels time, on 11 January 2017, notify the Commission of the amounts covered by requests for import authorisations.
2. The competent national authorities shall issue import authorisations only after being notified by the Commission pursuant to Article 17(2) of Regulation (EU) 2015/936 that the requested quantities are available for importation.
They shall issue authorisations only where 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 until 31 December 2017 at the latest.
The competent national authorities may, however, at the importer's request, grant a three-month extension to the validity of an authorisation, provided that at least 50 per cent of the allocated quantity has been used at the time of the request. Such extension shall in no circumstances expire later than 31 March 2018.
Article 5
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply as from 1 January 2017.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2016/2149
of 7 December 2016
approving non-minor amendments to the specification for a name entered in the register of protected designations of origin and protected geographical indications (Noix de Grenoble (PDO))
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 November 2012 on quality schemes for agricultural products and foodstuffs (1), and in particular Article 15(1) and Article 52(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Pursuant to the first subparagraph of Article 53(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012, the Commission examined France's application for the approval of amendments to the specification for the protected designation of origin ‘Noix de Grenoble’, registered under Commission Regulation (EC) No 1107/96 (2), as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1204/2003 (3). |
(2) |
Since the amendments in question are not minor within the meaning of Article 53(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012, the Commission published the amendment application in the Official Journal of the European Union (4), as required by Article 50(2)(a) of that Regulation. |
(3) |
By letters received on 18 December 2014 and 31 July 2015, the French authorities notified the Commission that the companies Les Jumelles Ets Huot, ZA Les Creux, 26600 Gervans and SN Comptoir rhodanien, ZA Les Lots, 26600 Tain-l'Hermitage, which are established on their territory, outside the geographical area in question, had been legally marketing the product sold under the name ‘Noix de Grenoble’, as nut packaging companies, using this name continuously for more than 5 years, and that this point had been raised during the national opposition procedure. Following the amendments to the specification, the two companies will be unable to use the registered name since the product must be packaged in the geographical area. |
(4) |
Since the companies Les Jumelles Ets Huot, ZA Les Creux, 26600 Gervans and SN Comptoir rhodanien, ZA Les Lots, 26600 Tain-l'Hermitage meet the requirements laid down in Article 15(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012 for the granting of a transitional period in which to make legal use of the sales name after amendments to the specification, they should be granted a transitional period of 5 years starting from the date on which the amendments are approved, during which time they may make use of the name ‘Noix de Grenoble’. |
(5) |
As no statement of opposition under Article 51 of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012 has been received by the Commission, the amendments to the specification should be approved. |
(6) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Agricultural Product Quality Policy Committee, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The amendments to the specification published in the Official Journal of the European Union regarding the name ‘Noix de Grenoble’ (PDO) are hereby approved.
Article 2
The companies Les Jumelles Ets Huot, ZA Les Creux, 26600 Gervans and SN Comptoir rhodanien, ZA Les Lots, 26600 Tain-l'Hermitage are hereby authorised to continue to use the registered name ‘Noix de Grenoble’ (PDO) for 5 years from the date of entry into force of this Regulation.
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.

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 September 2003 on additives for use in animal nutrition (1), and in particular Article 9(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provides for the authorisation of additives for use in animal nutrition and for the grounds and procedures for granting such authorisation. |
(2) |
In accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 applications were submitted for the authorisation of the preparations of Lactobacillus plantarum DSM 29025 and Lactobacillus plantarum NCIMB 42150. Those applications were accompanied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. |
(3) |
Those applications concern the authorisation of the preparations of Lactobacillus plantarum DSM 29025 and Lactobacillus plantarum NCIMB 42150 as feed additives for all animal species to be classified in the category ‘technological additives’. |
(4) |
The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinion of 21 April 2016 (2) that, under the proposed conditions of use, the preparation of Lactobacillus plantarum DSM 29025 does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment. However, the additive should be considered to have the potential to be a respiratory sensitiser. The Authority also concluded that the concerned preparation has the potential to improve the production silage prepared from easy, moderately difficult and difficult to ensile material. The Authority does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post-market monitoring. It also verified the report on the methods of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. |
(5) |
The Authority concluded in its opinion of 24 May 2016 (3) that, under the proposed conditions of use, the preparation of Lactobacillus plantarum NCIMB 42150 does not have an adverse effect on animal health, human health or the environment. However, the additive should be considered to have the potential to be a respiratory sensitiser. The Authority also concluded that the preparation concerned has the potential to reduce the protein degradation in silage prepared from easy, moderately difficult and difficult to ensile material. The Authority does not consider that there is a need for specific requirements of post-market monitoring. It also verified the report on the methods of analysis of the feed additive in feed submitted by the Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. |
(6) |
The assessment of the preparations of Lactobacillus plantarum DSM 29025 and Lactobacillus plantarum NCIMB 42150 shows that the conditions for authorisation, as provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. Accordingly, the use of those preparations should be authorised as specified in the Annex to this Regulation. |
(7) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Authorisation
The preparations specified in the Annex belonging to the additive category ‘technological additives’ and to the functional group ‘silage additives’, are authorised as additives in animal nutrition, subject to the conditions laid down in the Annex.
Article 2
Entry into force
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

RESOLUTION (EU) 2016/2153 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT
of 27 October 2016
with observations forming an integral part of the decision on discharge in respect of the implementation of the general budget of the European Union for the financial year 2014, Section II — European Council and Council
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT,
— |
having regard to its decision on discharge in respect of the implementation of the general budget of the European Union for the financial year 2014, Section II — European Council and Council, |
— |
having regard to Rule 94 of and Annex V to its Rules of Procedure, |
— |
having regard to the second report of the Committee on Budgetary Control (A8-0271/2016), |
A. |
whereas all Union institutions ought to be transparent and fully accountable to the citizens of the Union for the funds entrusted to them as Union institutions; |
B. |
whereas the European Council and the Council, as Union institutions, should be democratically accountable towards the citizens of the Union as far as they are beneficiaries of the general budget of the European Union; |
1.
Recalls the Parliament's role specified in the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) and in Regulation (EU, Euratom) No 966/2012 (the ‘Financial Regulation’) in respect of the budget discharge;
2.
Points out that under Article 335 TFEU, ‘[…] the Union shall be represented by each of the institutions, by virtue of their administrative autonomy, in matters relating to their respective operation’, and that accordingly, taking into account Article 55 of the Financial Regulation, the institutions are individually responsible for the implementation of their budgets;
3.
Stresses the role of Parliament and of other institutions within the discharge procedure, as governed by the provisions of the Financial Regulation, in particular Articles 164 to 166 thereof;
4.
Notes that under Rule 94 of Parliament's Rules of Procedure, ‘the provisions governing the procedure for granting discharge to the Commission in respect of the implementation of the budget shall likewise apply to the procedure for granting discharge to […] the persons responsible for the implementation of the budgets of other institutions and bodies of the European Union such as the Council (as regards its activity as executive) […]’;
5.
Regrets that the Council continues to be silent in relation to the remarks made by Parliament in its discharge resolution of 28 April 2016 (1) on the trend from previous years of increasing underspending and carryovers of commitments;
Pending issues
6. |
Regrets that the European Council and the Council do not provide Parliament with their annual activity report; regards this as inadmissible and detrimental to the reputation of the institutions; |
7. |
Regrets that the budget of the European Council and the Council have not yet been separated, as recommended by Parliament in recent discharge resolutions; |
8. |
Notes the information on the building policy provided in the Council's website; also notes that there is no information about the costs incurred in relation to those buildings; calls for detailed information to be given to Parliament in the next annual financial report; |
9. |
Reiterates its call for progress reports on building projects and a detailed breakdown of the costs incurred to date; calls for information on the costs related to the delayed completion of the Europa building; |
10. |
Reiterates its call on the Council to provide information on its process of administrative modernisation, in particular on the anticipated impact on the Council's budget; |
11. |
Calls on the Council to adopt a code of conduct as soon as possible in order to ensure the integrity of the institution; reiterates its call on the Council to implement whistleblowing rules without further delay; |
12. |
Calls on the Council to join the Union transparency register to ensure transparency and accountability of the institution; |
13. |
Reiterates its call on the Council to develop detailed anti-corruption guidelines and independent policies within its structures, as well as its call with regard to systematic increase of transparency of the legislative procedures and negotiations; |
14. |
Regrets the difficulties repeatedly encountered in the discharge procedures to date, which were due to a lack of cooperation from the Council; points out that Parliament refused to grant discharge to the Secretary-General of the Council in relation to the financial years 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 for the reasons set out in its resolutions of 10 May 2011 (2), 25 October 2011 (3), 10 May 2012 (4), 23 October 2012 (5), 17 April 2013 (6), 9 October 2013 (7), 3 April 2014 (8), 23 October 2014 (9) and 27 October 2015 (10) and postponed its decision on granting the Secretary-General of the Council discharge in relation to the financial year 2014 for the reasons set out in its abovementioned resolution of 28 April 2016; |
15. |
Insists that an effective budgetary control exercise requires the cooperation of Parliament and the Council, as set out in its abovementioned resolution of 28 April 2016; confirms that Parliament is unable to make an informed decision on granting discharge; |
16. |
Reminds the Council of the Commission's view, expressed in January 2014, that all institutions are fully part of the follow-up process to the observations made by Parliament in the discharge exercise and that all institutions should cooperate to ensure the smooth functioning of the discharge procedure; |
17. |
Notes that the Commission has stated that it will not oversee the implementation of the budget of the other institutions and that giving a response to questions addressed to another institution would infringe the autonomy of that institution to implement its own section of the budget; |
18. |
Regrets that the Council continues to fail to provide answers to Parliament's questions; recalls the conclusions of the Parliament workshop on Parliament's right to grant discharge to the Council held on 27 September 2012; recalls also the third subparagraph of Article 15(3) TFEU, which stipulates that each institution, body, office or agency is to ensure that its proceedings are transparent; |
19. |
Notes that only three out of twenty-seven questions submitted to the Council by the members of the Committee on Budgetary Control in relation to the financial year 2014 received a clear reply in the documents provided by the Council within the discharge exercise; |
20. |
Insists that the expenditure of the Council must be scrutinised in the same way as that of other institutions and that the fundamental elements of such scrutiny have been laid down in its discharge resolutions of the past years; |
21. |
Emphasises Parliament's prerogative to grant discharge pursuant to Articles 316, 317 and 319 TFEU, in line with current interpretation and practice, namely to grant discharge of each heading of the budget individually in order to maintain transparency and democratic accountability towards Union taxpayers; |
22. |
Takes the view that Council's failure to submit the requested documents to Parliament above all undermines the right of citizens of the Union to information and transparency and is becoming a cause for concern, reflecting as it does a certain democratic deficit within the Union institutions; |
23. |
Takes the stance that this constitutes a serious failure to comply with the obligations laid down by the Treaties and believes that the relevant stakeholders need to take the necessary steps to address this issue without further delay; stresses that a revision of the Treaties and of the Financial Regulation is needed in order to clarify the objectives and processes of the discharge procedure, and to define sanctions for failing to comply with the rules as stated in the Treaties; |
24. |
Considers that the lack of cooperation of the European Council and the Council with the discharge authority is a negative sign to the citizens of the Union. |

RESOLUTION (EU) 2016/2155 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT
of 27 October 2016
with observations forming an integral part of the decision on discharge in respect of the implementation of the budget for the ENIAC Joint Undertaking for the financial year 2014
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT,
— |
having regard to its decision on discharge in respect of the implementation of the budget of the ENIAC Joint Undertaking for the financial year 2014, |
— |
having regard to Rule 94 of and Annex V to its Rules of Procedure, |
— |
having regard to the second report of the Committee on Budgetary Control (A8-0264/2016), |
A. |
whereas the ENIAC Joint Undertaking (the ‘Joint Undertaking’) was set up on 20 December 2007 for a period of 10 years to establish and implement a research agenda for the development of key competences for nanoelectronics across different application areas, |
B. |
whereas the Joint Undertaking was granted financial autonomy in July 2010, |
C. |
whereas the founding members of the Joint Undertaking are the Union, represented by the Commission, Belgium, Germany, Estonia, Ireland, Greece, Spain, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Sweden and the United Kingdom, and the Association for European Nanoelectronics Activities (‘Aeneas’), |
D. |
whereas the maximum contribution for the period of 10 years from the Union to the Joint Undertaking is EUR 450 000 000, to be paid from the budget of the seventh research framework programme, |
E. |
whereas Aeneas is to make a maximum contribution of EUR 30 000 000 to the Joint Undertaking's running costs and the Member States are to make in-kind contributions to the running costs and to provide financial contributions of at least 1,8 times the Union contribution, |
F. |
whereas the Joint Undertaking and the Artemis Joint Undertaking (‘Artemis’) were merged to create the Electronic Components and Systems for European leadership Joint Technology Initiative (‘ECSEL JTI’), which started its activities in June 2014 and will run for 10 years, |
Budgetary and financial management
1. |
Acknowledges the fact that the Joint Undertaking's accounts for the period 1 January 2014 to 26 June 2014 present fairly, in all material respects, its financial position on 26 June 2014 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the period then ended, in accordance with the provisions of its financial rules and the accounting rules adopted by the Commission's accounting officer; |
2. |
Is concerned that the Court of Auditors, in its report on the annual accounts of the Joint Undertaking for the period 1 January to 26 June 2014 (the ‘Court's report’) issued a qualified opinion for the fourth consecutive year regarding the regularity and legality of the underlying transactions on the grounds that the administrative agreements signed with the national funding authorities (the ‘NFAs’) regarding audit of project cost claims do not include practical arrangements for ex post audits; |
3. |
Notes that, according to the Court's report, the Joint Undertaking did not assess the quality of the audit reports received from the NFAs concerning the costs related to completed projects; notes furthermore that, after an assessment of the audit strategies of three of the NFAs, it was not possible to conclude whether ex post audits are functioning effectively due to different methodologies used by the NFAs which did not allow the Joint Undertaking to calculate either a weighted error rate or a residual rate error; notes also that ECSEL JTI confirmed that its extensive assessment of the national assurance systems concluded that they can provide reasonable protection of the financial interests of the Joint Undertakings' members; |
4. |
Notes that the ECSEL JTI invited NFAs to produce evidence that the implementation of the national procedures provide a reasonable assurance of the legality and regularity of transactions and notes that, by the deadline of 30 June 2016, 76 % of the NFAs so invited, representing 96,79 % of the total spending of Artemis and the Joint Undertaking, submitted the documents required and confirmed that the implementation of the national procedures provides a reasonable assurance of the legality and regularity of transactions; |
5. |
Takes note of the fact that, according to the Court's report, the Joint Undertaking's final budget for the financial year 2014 included commitment appropriations of EUR 2 356 000 and payment appropriations of EUR 76 500 250; |
6. |

RESOLUTION (EU) 2016/2158 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT
of 27 October 2016
with observations forming an integral part of the decision on discharge in respect of the implementation of the budget of the Artemis Joint Undertaking for the financial year 2014
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT,
— |
having regard to its decision on discharge in respect of the implementation of the budget of Artemis Joint Undertaking for the financial year 2014, |
— |
having regard to Rule 94 of and Annex V to its Rules of Procedure, |
— |
having regard to the second report of the Committee on Budgetary Control (A8-0276/2016), |
A. |
whereas the Artemis Joint Undertaking (the ‘Joint Undertaking’) was set up in December 2007 for a period of 10 years to establish and implement a research agenda for the development of key technologies for embedded computing systems across different application areas in order to strengthen Union competitiveness and sustainability and to allow for the emergence of new markets and societal applications, |
B. |
whereas the Joint Undertaking started to work autonomously in October 2009, |
C. |
whereas the maximum contribution for the period of 10 years from the Union to the Joint Undertaking is EUR 420 000 000, to be paid from the budget of the Seventh Research Framework Programme, |
D. |
whereas financial contributions from Artemis Member States should amount, in total, to at least 1,8 times the Union's financial contribution and the in-kind contribution of research and development organisations participating in projects over the duration of the Joint Undertaking is to be equal to or greater than the contribution of public authorities, |
E. |
whereas the Joint Undertaking and the ENIAC Joint Undertaking (‘ENIAC’) were merged to create the Electronic Components and Systems for European Leadership Joint Technology Initiative (‘ECSEL JTI’), which started its activity in June 2014 and will run for 10 years, |
Budgetary and financial management
1. |
Notes that the Joint Undertaking's accounts for the period 1 January 2014 to 26 June 2014 present fairly, in all material respects, its financial position on 26 June 2014 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the period then ended, in accordance with the provisions of its financial rules and the accounting rules adopted by the Commission's accounting officer; |
2. |
Is concerned that the Court of Auditors (the ‘Court’) in its report on the annual accounts of the Joint Undertaking for the financial year 2014 (the ‘Court's report’) issued a qualified opinion regarding the regularity and legality of the underlying transactions on the grounds that the administrative agreements signed with the national funding authorities (‘NFAs’) regarding the audit of project cost claims do not include practical arrangements for ex post audits; |
3. |
Notes from the Court's report that the Joint Undertaking did not assess the quality of the audit reports received from the NFAs concerning the costs relating to completed projects; notes, furthermore, that after an assessment of the audit strategies of three of the NFAs it was not possible to conclude whether ex post audits were functioning effectively due to the different methodologies used by NFAs which did not allow the Joint Undertaking to calculate either a weighted error rate or a residual error rate; |
4. |
Notes that ECSEL JTI carried out an extensive assessment of the effectiveness of the assurance systems for a sample of 10 Artemis and ENIAC Member States representing the largest share of ECSEL JTI operational budget and covering 89,5 % of the Joint Undertaking's total grants allocated and notes that, based on the End of Project certificates up to 13 June 2016, the assessment demonstrates that the coverage rate is three times higher than the threshold of 20 % above which the national systems are considered to be sufficient as per the ex post audit strategy; |
5. |
Notes that the ECSEL JTI has invited NFAs to produce evidence that the implementation of the national procedures provide a reasonable assurance on the legality and regularity of transactions and notes that by the deadline of 30 June 2016, 76 % of the NFAs so invited, representing 96,79 % of joint Artemis and ENIAC JUs spending, submitted the documents required and confirmed that the implementation of the national procedures provides a reasonable assurance on the legality and regularity of transactions; |
6. |
Takes note of the fact that, according to the Court's report, the Joint Undertaking's final budget for the financial year 2014 included commitment appropriations of EUR 2 554 510 and payment appropriations of EUR 30 330 178 (operational); |
Internal control
7. |
Notes with concern that the Joint Undertaking took no action regarding some internal control standards relating to information and financial reporting: in particular, evaluation of activities, assessment of the internal control systems and internal audit capability (‘IAC’); observes that this was due to the impending merger; notes that, in the meantime, ECSEL JTI has achieved substantial progress with regard to the implementation of the internal control systems and establishing IAC. |

RESOLUTION (EU, Euratom) 2016/2161 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT
of 27 October 2016
with observations forming an integral part of the decision on discharge in respect of the implementation of the budget of the European Joint Undertaking for ITER and the Development of Fusion Energy for the financial year 2014
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT,
— |
having regard to its decision on discharge in respect of the implementation of the budget of the European Joint Undertaking for ITER and the Development of Fusion Energy for the financial year 2014, |
— |
having regard to Rule 94 of and Annex V to its Rules of Procedure, |
— |
having regard to the second report of the Committee on Budgetary Control (A8-0275/2016), |
A. |
whereas the European Joint Undertaking for ITER and the Development of Fusion Energy (the ‘Joint Undertaking’) was set up in March 2007 for a period of 35 years, |
B. |
whereas the members of the Joint Undertaking are Euratom, represented by the Commission, the Member States of Euratom, and third countries which have concluded cooperation agreements with Euratom in the field of controlled nuclear fusion, |
C. |
whereas the Joint Undertaking started to work autonomously on March 2008, |
1.
Notes that the Court of Auditors (the ‘Court’), in its report on the Joint Undertaking's annual accounts for the financial year 2014 (the ‘Court's report’), stated that the Joint Undertaking's annual accounts present fairly, in all material respects, its financial position as at 31 December 2014 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with the provisions of its financial rules;
2.
Takes note of the fact that the final 2014 budget available for implementation included commitment appropriations of EUR 1 168 800 000 and payment appropriations of EUR 567 600 000; the utilisation rates for commitment and payment appropriations were 100 % and 88,5 % respectively; notes, however, that the implementation rate for payment appropriations with respect to the 2014 initial budget was 73 %;
3.
Notes that, due to the challenges currently faced by the ITER Project, the new Director General of the ITER Organisation presented to the ITER Council an action plan including specific measures to address the main constraints that are currently affecting the development of the ITER project; notes, furthermore, that, as regards the Joint Undertaking, its new acting director prepared an action plan for the Joint Undertaking which largely supports the ITER Organisation action plan; acknowledges that the Joint Undertaking's acting director presented the action plan to the Joint Undertaking's Governing Board in March 2015, when it was fully endorsed, and that the Joint Undertaking's action plan complements the ITER Organisation action plan in a number of respects and identifies further improvements in the Joint Undertaking's own operations; observes that at the time of the audit, the practical measures for the implementation of both action plans were still being established; notes, moreover, that since March 2015, those action plans have been implemented and closely followed by the ITER Organisation and the Joint Undertaking and that they are expected to bring improvements; calls for a report on the implementation of those action plans to be presented in good time;
4.
Welcomes the conclusions of the ITER Council meeting of 15 and 16 June 2016 which confirmed that the ITER project is now going in the right direction, in a way that will allow for a sound, realistic and detailed proposal for schedule and associated cost up to First Plasma, endorsed the updated Integrated Schedule for the ITER project, which identifies the date of First Plasma as December 2025, indicated that the successful completion of all project milestones to date, on or ahead of schedule, is a positive indicator of the collective capacity of the ITER Organisation and the Domestic Agencies to continue to deliver on the updated Integrated Schedule and underlined that the evidence of increased effectiveness of decision-making, improved understanding of risks, and rigour in adhering to commitments provides a renewed basis for confidence that the ITER project will maintain its current positive momentum;
5.
Welcomes the position of the ITER Council that a sharp focus on the core elements through First Plasma should effectively reduce ITER project risks and that the updated Integrated Schedule represents the best technically achievable path forward to First Plasma, which will mark the completion of the key assembly and commissioning phases of the Tokamak and support facilities;
6.
Notes that the milestones set up at the ITER Council meeting of 18 and 19 November 2015 are well advanced and that four out of the six milestones attributed to Fusion for Energy (‘F4E’) for 2016 have already been fulfilled;
7.
Notes that the issue of the lease of the premises of the Joint Undertaking has been solved, as the Spanish government offered a long-term lease agreement for the current premises and an extension of the current office space by one additional floor; observes in this regard that the Joint Undertaking's Governing Board at its meeting of 29 and 30 June 2016 took note of the conclusion of the long-term lease agreement for the F4E offices between the Kingdom of Spain and the building owner and endorsed the plans to refurbish the office space attributed to the Joint Undertaking;
8.
Notes the partial implementation of the Staff Regulations and encourages the Joint Undertaking to continue implementing the remaining regulations; takes positive note of the fact that, as of 1 January 2016, the new Financial Regulation and new Implementing Rules of the Joint Undertaking entered into force; acknowledges that the Joint Undertaking has established a working definition of fusion/non-fusion application which facilitates establishing the scope of the exclusive use of intellectual property rights generated within the contracts.
