COUNCIL REGULATION (EU) 2019/1601
of 26 September 2019
amending Regulations (EU) 2018/2025 and (EU) 2019/124 as regards certain fishing opportunities
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) |
Council Regulation (EU) 2019/124 (1) fixes for 2019 the fishing opportunities for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, applicable in Union waters and, for Union fishing vessels, in certain non-Union waters. |
(2) |
In Regulation (EU) 2019/124, the total allowable catch (TAC) for anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) in ICES subareas 9 and 10 and in Union waters of CECAF division 34.1.1 was set at zero. In Council Regulation (EU) 2019/1097 (2), a provisional TAC was established to allow the fishery to continue. Anchovy is a short-lived species, for which surveys are concluded in May. The relevant International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) scientific advice was issued on 28 June 2019. The catch limits for anchovy in ICES subareas 9 and 10 and in Union waters of CECAF division 34.1.1 should now be amended in line with that advice. |
(3) |
The inter-area flexibility (special condition) for cod (Gadus morhua) from the North Sea to the Eastern Channel should apply only in respect of the Member States having quotas in both areas. The relevant fishing opportunities table should therefore be amended accordingly. |
(4) |
On 17 December 2018 ICES has published scientific advice on the inter-area flexibility for horse mackerel (Trachurus spp.) between ICES divisions 8c and 9a. ICES advised the inter-area flexibility between two stocks should not exceed the difference between the catch corresponding to a fishing mortality of Fp.05 and the established TAC. There should also be no transfer of TAC to a stock with a spawning-stock biomass below the limit reference point (Blim). Under the conditions of that scientific advice, the inter-area flexibility (special condition) for horse mackerel between ICES subarea 9 and ICES division 8c for 2019 should be increased from 5 % to 10 %. |
(5) |
As regards Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides) in international waters of 1 and 2, the Member States carrying out a scientific study on by-catches in the shrimp fishery should be allowed to allocate an overall total of 130 tonnes to the vessels participating in the study with observers on board. Those fishing opportunities should therefore be amended accordingly. |
(6) |
Council Regulation (EU) 2018/2025 (3) fixes for 2019 and 2020 the fishing opportunities for Union fishing vessels for certain deep-sea fish stocks. In that Regulation, the TAC for red seabream (Pagellus bogaraveo) in ICES subarea 10 for both years was set based on the scientific advice for 2019, awaiting the scientific advice for 2020. On 11 June 2019 ICES published the scientific advice for 2020. The TAC should be established in line with the latest scientific advice. |
(7) |
The relevant TACs for anchovy provided for in Regulation (EU) 2019/124 apply from 1 July 2019. The relevant TACs for red seabream provided for in Regulation (EU) 2018/2025 apply from 1 January 2019 but the amendment introduced by this Regulation only concerns the catch limits for 2020. The provisions concerning those stocks introduced by this Regulation should therefore apply with effect from 1 July 2019. |
(8) |
The relevant TACs for Greenland halibut and the special conditions for cod and horse mackerel apply from 1 January 2019. The provisions concerning those stocks introduced by this Regulation should therefore apply with effect from that date. |
(9) |
Such retroactive application is without prejudice to the principles of legal certainty and protection of legitimate expectations, as the fishing opportunities concerned are not decreased and have not yet been exhausted. |
(10) |
Regulations (EU) 2018/2025and (EU) 2019/124 should be amended accordingly, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Annex to Regulation (EU) 2018/2025 is amended in accordance with Annex I to this Regulation.
Annexes IA and IB to Regulation (EU) 2019/124 are amended in accordance with Annex II to this Regulation.
Article 2
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 with effect from 1 July 2019. However, points 2, 3 and 4 of paragraph 1 of Annex II and paragraph 2 of that Annex shall apply with effect from 1 January 2019.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 26 September 2019.

COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2019/1602
of 23 April 2019
supplementing Regulation (EU) 2017/625 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the Common Health Entry Document accompanying consignments of animals and goods to their destination
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2017/625 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 March 2017 on official controls and other official activities performed to ensure the application of food and feed law, rules on animal health and welfare, plant health and plant protection products, amending Regulations (EC) No 999/2001, (EC) No 396/2005, (EC) No 1069/2009, (EC) No 1107/2009, (EU) No 1151/2012, (EU) No 652/2014, (EU) 2016/429 and (EU) 2016/2031 of the European Parliament and of the Council, Council Regulation (EC) No 1/2005 and (EC) No 1099/2009 and Council Directives 98/58/EC, 1999/74/EC, 2007/43/EC, 2008/119/EC and 2008/120/EC, and repealing Regulations (EC) No 854/2004 and (EC) No 882/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council, Council Directives 89/608/EEC, 89/662/EEC, 90/425/EEC, 91/496/EEC, 96/23/EC, 96/93/EC and 97/78/EC and Council Decision 92/438/EEC (Official Controls Regulation) (1), and in particular Article 50(4) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Regulation (EU) 2017/625 establishes rules on the performance of official controls by the competent authorities of the Member States on animals and goods entering the Union in order to verify compliance with Union agri-food chain legislation. |
(2) |
As rules on the cases when, and the conditions under which, the CHED should accompany consignments in transit are to be laid down in a separate delegated act to be adopted pursuant to Article 51(1) of Regulation (EU) 2017/625, this Regulation should only apply to consignments intended to be placed on the market in the Union. |
(3) |
Regulation (EU) 2017/625 provides that consignments of animals and goods entering the Union through designated border control posts are to be accompanied by the Common Health Entry Document (‘CHED’). Once the official controls have been performed and the CHED has been finalised, the consignments may be split into different parts, according to the commercial needs of the operator. |
(4) |
With a view to ensuring traceability of consignments and proper communication with the competent authority at the place of destination, rules should be established on the conditions and the practical arrangements under which the CHED should accompany consignments intended for placing on the market to their destination. In particular, it is appropriate to lay down detailed rules related to the CHED for the cases where consignments are split. |
(5) |
In order to ensure the traceability of consignments that are split at the border control post after official controls have been performed and the CHED has been finalised by the competent authority, it is appropriate to require that the operator responsible for the consignment also submits, through the information management system for official controls (‘IMSOC’) referred to in Article 131 of Regulation (EU) 2017/625, a CHED for each part of the split consignment, which should be finalised by the competent authorities of the border control post and should accompany each part of the split consignment to the destination declared in the respective CHED. |
(6) |
For the purposes of preventing the fraudulent reuse of the CHED, it is appropriate to require the customs authorities to communicate to the IMSOC the information on the quantity of the consignment stated in the customs declaration, so as to ensure that the quantities stated in such customs declaration are deducted from the total allowed quantity declared in the CHED. Customs authorities are required to exchange information using the customs electronic data-processing techniques referred to in Article 6(1) of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2). Those electronic data-processing techniques should be used for the purposes of this Regulation. In order to allow the customs authorities sufficient time to set up those techniques, it is appropriate to provide that the obligation to communicate the information on the quantity of the consignments to the IMSOC applies in each Member State as from the date on which those techniques become operational in that Member State or from 1 March 2023, whichever is earlier. |
(7) |
Since Regulation (EU) 2017/625 applies from 14 December 2019, this Regulation, should also apply from that date, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1

COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2019/1603
of 18 July 2019
supplementing Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards measures adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organisation for the monitoring, reporting and verification of aviation emissions for the purpose of implementing a global market-based measure
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 October 2003 establishing a system for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Union and amending Council Directive 96/61/EC (1), and in particular Article 28c thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Article 28c of Directive 2003/87/EC empowers the Commission to adopt provisions for the appropriate monitoring, reporting and verification of emissions for the purpose of implementing the International Civil Aviation Organisation's (‘ICAO’) global market-based measure on all routes covered by that measure. For reasons of legal certainty and clarity, it is necessary to specify the flights subject to those provisions by reference to the relevant routes and aircraft operators. |
(2) |
Arrangements for the monitoring and reporting of emissions as well as the verification of emission reports apply, for the purposes of the EU Emission Trading System, in accordance with Commission Regulation (EU) No 601/2012 (2) and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2067 (3). Those arrangements have been updated and further developed, as regards the monitoring and reporting of emissions, by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2066 (4), which will apply from 1 January 2021. Implementing Regulations (EU) 2018/2066 and (EU) 2018/2067 take account of the first edition of the international standards and recommended practices adopted by the ICAO on 27 June 2018. For reasons of administrative efficiency and to minimise compliance costs for operators, it is appropriate to align the provisions for the implementation of the ICAO's global market based measure and the provisions laid down in Regulation (EU) No 601/2012 and in those Implementing Regulations. |
(3) |
Under Commission Regulation (EU) No 601/2012, Member States can prescribe the use of electronic templates and specific file formats for the purposes of reporting emissions from aviation activities under Directive 2003/87/EC. To ensure that aircraft operators can comply with such requirements also when reporting emissions for the purposes of the ICAO's global market-based measure, the Commission should publish a specific electronic data exchange format. |
(4) |
The application of monitoring, reporting and verification requirements for certain flights only in respect of aircraft operators based in the EEA is not considered to cause any distortion of competition. Therefore, such requirements can be adopted on the basis of Article 28c of Directive 2003/87/EC. |
(5) |
On the basis of a cooperation agreement between the two, the Commission is entitled to request the assistance of Eurocontrol to ensure quality of emissions data. In the interests of ensuring the completeness and accuracy of emissions data to be transmitted by Member States in the format expected by ICAO, Member States should be able to request the Commission to seek this assistance from Eurocontrol. |
(6) |
Member States should transmit relevant verified emissions data to the ICAO Secretariat, and ensure complete and timely reporting of emissions data concerning all relevant flights. |
(7) |
In accordance with Article 28b(2) of Directive 2003/87/EC, the report referred to in that article should consider whether this regulation should be revised, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 6
Upon request by a Member State, the Commission may request the assistance of Eurocontrol to improve the accuracy of emissions data, with a view to their transmission in accordance with Article 7.
Article 7
Without prejudice to the revision of Directive 2003/87/EC by the European Parliament and the Council, Member States shall transmit to the Secretariat of the International Civil Aviation Organisation the relevant emissions data that have been reported pursuant to Article 14 of Directive 2003/87/EC and pursuant to this Regulation. Before that transmission, competent authorities shall conduct order of magnitude checks on the data to be transmitted. At the same time, Member States shall also transmit this emissions data to the Commission.
The emissions factor specified in Annex 16, Volume IV to the Convention on International Civil Aviation signed on 7 December 1944 (Chicago Convention) for the fuel Jet Kerosene (Jet A1 or Jet A) shall be used for the purposes of the transmission of emissions data pursuant to the first paragraph of this Article.
Article 8
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following 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) 2019/1604
of 27 September 2019
amending Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91 on the characteristics of olive oil and olive-residue oil and on the relevant methods of analysis
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 point (d) of the first paragraph of Article 91 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91 (2) defines the physico-chemical and organoleptic characteristics of olive oil and olive-pomace oil and lays down methods for assessing those characteristics. |
(2) |
The methods and the limit values for the characteristics of oils are regularly updated on the basis of the opinion of chemical experts and in line with the work carried out within the International Olive Council (IOC). |
(3) |
In order to ensure the implementation at Union level of the most recent international standards established by the IOC, certain methods of analysis set out in Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91 should be updated. |
(4) |
The IOC Trade Standard was amended as regards the expression of the limit of the free acidity, peroxide value, organoleptic evaluation (median of the defect and median of the fruity attribute) and the difference between ECN42 (HPLC) and ECN42 (theoretical calculation) for consistency with the precision values of the analytical method. |
(5) |
In accordance with Article 2a(5) of Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91 Member States are to verify whether an olive oil sample is consistent with the category declared by checking the characteristics set out in Annex I to that Regulation either in any order or following the order set out in a decision tree set out in Annex Ib thereto. |
(6) |
In view of recent developments, it is appropriate to update the tables in Annex Ib to Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91 and its appendix as appropriate. It also appears that the term ‘flowchart’ is more appropriate than the term ‘decision tree’ in view of the content of that Annex Ib. |
(7) |
Point 9.4 of Annex XII to Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91 defines the median of the defects as the median of the defect perceived with the greatest intensity. In the context of counter-assessments and given that different panels have to assess the conformity of the oil, it should be clarified that the decision relating to the conformity of the characteristics of an oil with the declared category is solely related to the value of the median of the main defect, irrespective of its nature. |
(8) |
Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91 should therefore be amended accordingly. |
(9) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for the Common Organisation of the Agricultural Markets, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91 is amended as follows:
(1) |
Article 2 is amended as follows:
|
(2) |
point (b) of Article 2a(5) is replaced by the following:
|
(3) |
the table ‘ANNEXES Summary’ is replaced by the table in Annex I to this Regulation; |
(4) |
Annex I is replaced by the text in Annex II to this Regulation; |

Notes:
(a) |
The results of the analyses must be expressed to the same number of decimal places as used for each characteristic. The last digit must be increased by one unit if the following digit is greater than 4. |
(b) |
If just a single characteristic does not match the values stated, the category of an oil can be changed or the oil is declared non-compliant for the purposes of this Regulation. |
(c) |
For lampante olive oil, both quality characteristics marked with an asterisk (*) may differ simultaneously from the limits established for that category. |
(d) |
If a characteristic is marked with two asterisks (**), this means that for crude olive-pomace oil, it is possible for both the relevant limits to be different from the stated values at the same time. For olive-pomace oil and refined olive-pomace oil one of the relevant limits may be different from the stated values. |

(2) |
point 9.4 is replaced by the following: ‘9.4. Classification of the oil The oil is graded as follows in line with the median of the defects and the median for the fruity attribute. The median of the defects is defined as the median of the defect perceived with the greatest intensity. The median of the defects and the median of the fruity attribute are expressed to one decimal place. The oil is graded by comparing the median value of the defects and the median of the fruity attribute with the reference ranges given below. The error of the method has been taken into account when establishing the limits of these ranges, which are therefore considered to be absolute. The software packages allow the grading to be displayed as a table of statistics or a graph.
For assessments intended to monitor compliance, one test shall be carried out. In the case of counter assessments, the analysis must be carried out in duplicate in different tasting sessions. The results of the duplicate analysis must be statistically homogenous (see point 9.5). If not, the sample must be reanalysed twice again. The final value of the median of the classification attributes will be calculated using the average of both medians.’. |

DETERMINATION OF THE STEROL COMPOSITION AND CONTENT AND ALCOHOLIC COMPOUNDS BY CAPILLARY GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY
1. SCOPE
The method describes a procedure for determining the individual and total alcoholic compound content of olive oils and olive pomace oils as well as of blends of these two oils.
The alcoholic compounds in olive and olive pomace oils comprise aliphatic alcohols, sterols and triterpenic dialcohols.
2. PRINCIPLE
The oils, with added α-cholestanol and 1-eicosanol as internal standards, are saponified with potassium hydroxide in ethanolic solution and the unsaponifiable matter is then extracted with ethyl ether.
The different alcoholic compounds fractions are separated from the unsaponifiable matter either by thin-layer chromatography on a basic silica gel plate (reference method) or by HPLC with a silica gel column. The fraction recovered from the silica gel separation is transformed into trimethylsilyl ethers and then analysed by capillary column gas chromatography.
PART 1
PREPARATION OF THE UNSAPONIFIABLE MATTER
1. SCOPE
This Part describes the preparation and extraction of the unsaponifiable matter. It includes the preparation and extraction of the unsaponifiable matter from olive and olive-pomace oils.
2. PRINCIPLE
A test portion is saponified by boiling under reflux with an ethanolic potassium hydroxide solution. The unsaponifiable matter is extracted with diethyl ether.
3. APPARATUS
The usual laboratory equipment and in particular the following:
3.1. |
Round bottomed flask fitted with a reflux condenser with ground-glass joints, 250 mL. |
3.2. |
Separating funnel, 500 mL. |
3.3. |
Flasks, 250 mL. |
3.4. |
Microsyringes, 100 μL and 500 μL. |
3.5. |
Cylindrical filter funnel with a G3 porous septum (porosity 15-40 μm) of diameter approximately 2 cm and a depth of 5 cm, suitable for filtration under vacuum with male ground-glass joint. |
3.6. |
Conical flask with ground-glass female joint, 50 mL, which can be fitted to the filter funnel (3.5). |
3.7. |
Test tube with a tapering bottom and a sealing glass stopper, 10 mL. |
3.8. |
Calcium dichloride desiccator. |
4. REAGENTS
4.1. |
Potassium hydroxide minimum titre 85 %. |
4.2. |
Potassium hydroxide ethanolic solution, approximately 2 M. Dissolve 130 g of potassium hydroxide (4.1) with cooling in 200 ml of distilled water and then make up to one litre with ethanol (4.7). Keep the solution in well-stoppered dark glass bottles and stored maximum 2 days. |
4.3. |
Ethyl ether, for analysis quality. |
4.4. |
Anhydrous sodium sulphate, for analysis quality. |
4.5. |
Acetone, for chromatography quality. |
4.6. |
Ethyl ether, for chromatography quality. |
4.7. |
Ethanol of analytical quality. |
4.8. |
Ethyl acetate of analytical quality. |
4.9. |
Internal standard, α-cholestanol, purity more than 99 % (purity must be checked by GC analysis). |
4.10. |
Internal standard solution of α-cholestanol, 0,2 solution (m/V) in ethyl acetate (4.8). |
4.11. |
Phenolphthalein solution, 10 g/L in ethanol (4.7). |
4.12. |
A 0,1 % (m/v) solution of 1-eicosanol in ethyl acetate (internal standard). |
5. PROCEDURE
Using a 500 μL micro-syringe (3.4) introduce into the 250 mL flask (3.1) a volume of the α-cholestanol internal standard solution (4.10) and a volume of 1-eicosanol (4.12) containing an amount of cholestanol and eicosanol corresponding to approximately 10 % of the sterol and alcohol content of the sample. For example, for 5 g of olive oil sample add 500 μL of the α-cholestanol solution (4.10) and 250 μL of 1-eicosanol solution (4.12). For pomace olive oils add 1500 μL of both α-cholestanol solution (4.10) and 1-eicosanol (4.12). Evaporate until dryness with a gentle current of nitrogen in a warm water bath. After cooling the flask, weigh 5,00 ± 0,01 g of the dry filtered sample into the same flask.
Note 1: |
Animal or vegetable oils and fats containing appreciable quantities of cholesterol may show a peak having a retention time identical to cholestanol. If this case occurs, the sterol fraction will have to be analysed in duplicate with and without internal standard. |
Add 50 mL of 2M ethanolic potassium hydroxide solution (4.2) and some pumice, fit the reflux condenser and heat to gentle boiling until saponification takes place (the solution becomes clear). Continue heating for a further 20 minutes, then add 50 mL of distilled water from the top of the condenser, detach the condenser and cool the flask to approximately 30 °C.
Transfer the contents of the flask quantitatively into a 500 mL separating funnel (3.2) using several portions of distilled water (50 mL). Add approximately 80 ml of ethyl ether (4.6), shake vigorously for approximately 60 seconds, periodically releasing the pressure by inverting the separating funnel and opening the stopcock. Allow standing until there is complete separation of the two phases (Note 2). Then draw off the soap solution as completely as possible into a second separating funnel. Perform two further extractions on the water-alcohol phase in the same way using 60 to 70 mL of ethyl ether (4.6).
Note 2: |
Any emulsion can be destroyed by adding small quantities of ethanol (4.7). |
Combine the three ether extracts in one separating funnel containing 50 mL of water. Continue to wash with water (50 mL) until the wash water no longer gives a pink colour on the addition of a drop of phenolphthalein solution (4.11). When the wash water has been removed, filter on anhydrous sodium sulphate (4.4) into a previously weighed 250 mL flask, washing the funnel and filter with small quantities of ethyl ether (4.6).
Evaporate the solvent by distillation in a rotary evaporator at 30 °C under vacuum. Add 5mL of acetone (4.5) and remove the volatile solvent completely in a gentle current of nitrogen. Dry the residue in the oven at 103 ± 2 °C for 15 min. Cool in desiccators and weigh to the nearest 0,1 mg.
PART 2
SEPARATION OF THE ALCOHOLIC COMPOUNDS FRACTIONS
1. SCOPE
The unsaponifiable matter prepared in Part 1 is fractionated in the different alcoholic compounds, aliphatic alcohols, sterols and triterpenic dialcohols (erythrodiol and uvaol).
2. PRINCIPLE
The unsaponifiable matter can be fractionated using basic thin layer chromatography (reference method), revealed and the corresponding bands scratched and extracted. As an alternative method of separation, HPLC using a silica gel column and UV detector and the different fractions collected. The aliphatic and triterpenic alcohols as well as the sterol and triterpenic dialcohols are isolated together.
3. APPARATUS
The usual laboratory equipment and in particular the following:
3.1. |
Complete apparatus for analysis by thin-layer chromatography using 20 × 20 cm glass plates. |
3.2. |

5. REFERENCE METHOD: SEPARATION OF THE ALCOHOLIC COMPOUNDS BY BASIC THIN-LAYER CHROMATOGRAPHY (TLC) PLATE
Preparation of the basic thin layer chromatography plates. Immerse or dip the silica gel plates (4.5) about 4 cm in the 0,2 M ethanolic potassium hydroxide solution (4.4) for 10 seconds, then allow to dry in a fume cupboard for two hours and finally place in an oven at 100 °C for one hour.
Remove from the oven and keep in a calcium chloride desiccator (3.7) until required for use (plates treated in this way must be used within 15 days).
Place hexane/ethyl ether mixture (4.13) (Note 3) into the development chamber, to a depth of approximately 1 cm. Close the chamber with the appropriate cover and leave thus for at least half an hour, in a cool place, so that liquid-vapour equilibrium is established. Strips of filter paper dipping into the eluent may be placed on the internal surfaces of the chamber. This reduces developing time by approximately one-third and brings about more uniform and regular elution of the components.
Note 3: |
The developing mixture should be replaced for every test, in order to achieve perfectly reproducible elution conditions. Alternative solvent 50:50 (V/V) n-hexane/ethyl ether may be used. |
Prepare an approximately 5 % solution of the unsaponifiable prepared in Part 1 in ethyl acetate (4.10) and, using the 100 μL microsyringe (3.3), depose 0,3 ml of the solution on a narrow and uniform streak on the lower end (2 cm) of the chromatographic plate (4.5). In line with the streak, place 2 to 3 μL of the material reference solution (4.11), so that the sterol, triterpene dialcohols and alcohols bands can be identified after developing.
Place the plate in the developing chamber (3.1). The ambient temperature should be maintained between 15 and 20 °C (Note 4). Immediately close the chamber with the cover and allow eluting until the solvent front reaches approximately 1 cm from the upper edge of the plate. Remove the plate from the developing chamber and evaporate the solvent in a flow of hot air or by leaving the plate for a short while, under a hood.
Note 4: |
Higher temperature could worsen the separation. |
Spray the plate lightly and uniformly with the 2,7-dichlorofluorescein solution (4.12) and then leave to dry. When the plate is observed under ultraviolet lamp (3.2), the sterols, triterpene dialcohols and alcohols bands can be identified through being aligned with the spots obtained from the reference solution (4.11). Mark the limits of the bands along the edges of the fluorescence with a black pencil (see TLC plate in Figure 1).
By using a metal spatula, scrape off the silica gel of the marked area. Place the finely comminuted material removed into the filter funnel (3.4). Add 10 mL of hot ethyl acetate (4.10), mix carefully with the metal spatula and filter (under vacuum if necessary), collecting the filtrate in the conical flask (3.5.) attached to the filter funnel.
Wash the residue in the flask three times with ethyl ether (4.3) (approximately 10 mL each time), collecting the filtrate in the same flask attached to the funnel, evaporate the filtrate to a volume of 4 to 5 mL, transfer the residual solution to the previously weighed 10 mL test tube (3.6), evaporate to dryness by mild heating, in a gentle flow of nitrogen, make up again using a few drops of acetone (4.6), evaporate again to dryness. The residue contained in the test tube consists of the sterol and triterpene dialcohols or the alcohols and triterpenic alcohols fractions.
6. SEPARATION OF THE ALCOHOLIC FRACTION BY HPLC
The unsaponifiable obtained from Part 1 is dissolved in 3 mL of the mobile phase (4.14), filter the solution with a syringe filter (3.10) and reserve.
Inject 200 μL of the filtered unsaponifiable solution in the HPLC (3.8).
Run the HPLC separation at 0,8 mL/min, discard the first 5 min. and collect in 25 mL conical flasks (3.11) between the 5 and 10 min. for aliphatic and triterpenic alcohols and between 11 and 25 min for sterols and erythrodiol and uvaol (Note 5).
The separation can be monitored with an UV detector at 210 nm wavelengths or a refractive index detector (see Figure 6).
The fractions are evaporated until dryness and prepared for chromatographic analysis.
Note 5: |
Carefully control the pressure of the HPLC pump, the ethyl ether can increase the pressure, adjust the flow to keep the pressure under control. |
PART 3
GAS CHROMATOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF THE ALCOHOLIC COMPOUNDS FRACTIONS
1. SCOPE
This part gives general guidance for the application of capillary column gas chromatography to determine the qualitative and quantitative composition of the alcoholic compounds isolated in accordance with the method specified in Part 2 of this method.
2. PRINCIPLE
The fractions collected from the unsaponifiable matter using TLC or HPLC are derivatized into trimethylsilyl ethers and analysed by capillary column gas chromatography with split injection and flame ionization detector.
3. APPARATUS
The usual laboratory equipment and in particular the following:
3.1. |
Test tube with a tapering bottom and a sealing glass stopper, 10 mL. |
3.2. |
Gas chromatograph suitable for use with a capillary column with split injection system, consisting of:
|
3.3. |
Fused-silica capillary column of length 20 to 30 m, internal diameter 0,25 to 0,32 mm, coated with 5 % Diphenyl - 95 % Dimethylpolysiloxane (SE-52 or SE-54 stationary phase or equivalent), to a uniform thickness between 0,10 and 0,30 μm. |
3.4. |
Microsyringe, of 10 μL capacity, for gas chromatography, with cemented needle suitable for split injection. |
4. REAGENTS
4.1. |
Anhydrous pyridine, for chromatography quality. |
4.2. |
Hexamethyl disilazane of analytical quality. |
4.3. |
Trimethylchlorosilane of analytical quality. |
4.4. |
Sample solutions of sterol trimethylsilyl ethers. To be prepared at the time of use from sterols and erythrodiol obtained from oils containing them. |
4.5. |
Standard solutions of trimethylsilyl ethers of aliphatic alcohols from C20 to C28. They may be prepared from mixtures of pure alcohols at the time they are required for use. |
4.6. |
Carrier gas: hydrogen or helium, gas-chromatographic purity. |
4.7. |
Auxiliary gases: hydrogen, helium, nitrogen and air, of gas-chromatographic purity. |
4.8. |
Silylation reagent, consisting of a 9:3:1 (V/V/V) mixture of pyridine/hexamethyl disilazane/trimethylchlorosilane. |
4.9. |
n-Hexane, for chromatography quality. |
5. PREPARATION OF THE TRIMETHYLSILYL ETHERS
Add the silylation reagent (4.8) (Note 6), in the ratio of 50 μl for every milligram of alcoholic compound, in the test tube (3.1) containing the alcoholic compound fraction, avoiding any uptake of moisture (Note 7).
Note 6: |
Ready for use solutions are available commercially. Other silylation reagents, such as, for example, bistrimethylsilyl trifluor acetamide + 1 % trimethylchlorosilane, which has to be diluted with an equal volume of anhydrous pyridine, are also available. Pyridine can be replaced by the same amount of acetonitrile. |
Note 7: |
The slight opalescence, which may form, is normal and does not cause any anomaly. The formation of a white flock or the appearance of a pink colour is indicative of the presence of moisture or deterioration of the reagent. If these occur the test must be repeated (only if hexamethyldisilazane/trimethylchlorosilane is used). |
Stopper the test tube (3.1), shake carefully (without overturning) until the compounds are completely dissolved. Leave to stand for at least 15 minutes at ambient temperature and then centrifuge for a few minutes. The clear solution is ready for gas chromatographic analysis.
6. GAS CHROMATOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS
6.1. Preliminary operations, capillary column conditioning
Fit the column (3.3) in the gas chromatograph, by attaching the inlet end to the split injector and the outlet end to the detector.
Carry out general checks on the gas chromatograph unit (leaks from the gas circuits, detector efficiency, efficiency of the splitting system and recording system, etc.).
If the column is being used for the first time, it is recommended that it should be subjected to conditioning: passing a gentle flow of gas through the column itself, then switch on the gas chromatography unit and begin a gradual heating, up to a temperature of at least 20 °C above the operating temperature (Note 8). Hold this temperature for at least two hours, then place the entire unit in operating mode (adjustment of gas flows and splitting, ignition of the flame, connection with the computing system, adjustment of the column, detector and injector temperature, etc.) and then record the signal with a sensitivity at least two times greater than that one intended for the analysis. The course of the base line must be linear, without peaks of any kind, and must not show drift. A negative straight-line drift indicates leakage from the column connections; a positive drift indicates inadequate conditioning of the column.
Note 8: |
The conditioning temperature must always be at least 20 °C less than the maximum temperature specified for the stationary phase used. |
6.2. Operating conditions
Optimize the temperature programme and the carrier gas flow so that chromatograms similar to Figures 3 to 6 are obtained.
The following parameters were tested and found useful:
6.2.1. Aliphatic alcohols
Oven Program |
180 °C (8 min.) → 260 °C (at 5 °C/min) → 260 °C (15 min) |
Injector Temperature |
280 °C |
Detector Temperature |
290 °C |
Linear Velocity of Carrier gas |
Helium (20 to 30 cm/s); Hydrogen (30 to 50 cm/s) |
Split Ratio |
1:50 to 1:100 |
Volume Injected |
0,5 to 1 μL of TMSE solution |
6.2.2. Sterol and triterpenic dialcohols
Oven Program |
260 ± 5 °C Isothermal |
Injector Temperature |
280 – 300 °C |
Detector Temperature |
280 – 300 °C |
Linear Velocity of Carrier gas |
Helium (20 to 30 cm/s); Hydrogen (30 to 50 cm/s) |
Split Ratio |
1:50 to 1:100 |
Volume Injected |
0,5 to 1 μL of TMSE solution |
These conditions may be changed according to the characteristics of the column and gas chromatograph, so as to obtain chromatograms, which meet the following requirements:
— |
Alcohol C26 retention time shall be 18 ± 5 minutes. |
— |
Alcohol C22 peak shall be 80 ± 20 % of the full-scale value for olive oil and 40 ± 20 % of the full-scale value for olive-pomace oil. |
— |
The retention time for the β-sitosterol peak should be at 20 ± 5 min. |
— |
The campesterol peak should be: for olive oil (mean content 3 %) 20 ± 5 % of full scale. |
— |
All the present sterols must be separated. In addition to being separated, the peaks must also be completely resolved, i.e. the peak trace should return to the base line before leaving for the next peak. Incomplete resolution is, however, tolerated, provided that the peak at RRT 1,02 (Sitostanol) can be quantified using the perpendicular. |
6.3. Analytical procedure
By using the 10 μl microsyringe (3.4), take 1 μl of hexane, draw in 0,5 μl of air and then 0,5 to 1 μl of the sample solution. Raise the plunger of the syringe further, so the needle is emptied. Push the needle through the membrane of the injector and after one to two seconds, inject rapidly, and then slowly remove the needle after around five seconds. An automatic injector can be used as well.
Carry out the recording until the TMSE of the corresponding alcoholic compounds present are completely eluted. The base line must continue to meet the requirements of the corresponding operating conditions (6.2.1 or 6.2.2).
6.4. Peak identification
Identify individual peaks on the basis of retention times and by comparison with the mixture of the aliphatic and triterpenic alcohols or the sterol and triterpene dialcohols TMSE, analysed under the same conditions. A chromatogram of the aliphatic and triterpenic alcohols fraction is showed in Figure 3 and the corresponding chromatograms for sterols and triterpenic dialcohols are showed in Figure 2.
The aliphatic alcohols are eluted in the following order: C20-ol (I.S.), C22-ol, C23-ol, C24-ol, C25-ol, C26-ol, C27-ol and C28-ol.
The sterols and triterpene dialcohols are eluted in the following order: cholesterol, brassicasterol, ergosterol, 24-methylen-cholesterol, campesterol, campestanol, stigmasterol, Δ7-campesterol, Δ5,23-stigmastadienol, clerosterol, β-sistosterol, sitostanol, Δ5-avenasterol, Δ5,24-stigmastadienol, Δ7-stigmastenol, Δ7-avenasterol, erythrodiol and uvaol.
6.5. Quantitative evaluation
The peak areas of 1-eicosanol and of the aliphatic alcohols C22, C24, C26, C28 are calculated by a data acquisition system. The response factor for 1-eicosanol should be considered equal to 1.
Calculate the areas of the α-cholestanol and the sterol and triterpene dialcohols peaks by using the computing system. Ignore peaks for any compound, which are not included (ergosterol must not be calculated) among those listed in Table 1. The response factor for α-cholestanol should be considered equal to 1.
Calculate the concentration of each individual alcoholic compound, in mg/kg of fatty material, as follows:
where:
Ax |
= |
Peak area for alcoholic compound x, in computing system counts. |
As |
= |
Area of the 1-eicosanol/α-cholestanol peak, in computing system counts. |
ms |
= |
Mass of added 1-eicosanol/α-cholestanol, in milligrams. |
m |
= |
Mass of the sample used for determination, in grams. |
7. EXPRESSION OF THE RESULTS
Report individual aliphatic and triterpenic alcohols concentrations as mg/kg of fatty material and their sum as 'total aliphatic alcohol content'. The total content is the sum of C22, C24, C26 and C28.
The composition of each of the individual alcoholic compounds should be expressed to one decimal point.
Total sterol concentration should be expressed without any decimal point.
Calculate the percentage of each individual sterol from the ratio of the relevant peak area to the total peak area for sterols:
where:
Ax |
= |
Peak area for sterol x. |
ΣA |
= |
Total peak area for sterols. |
Apparent β-sitosterol: Δ5,23-stigmastadienol + clerosterol + β-sitosterol + sitostanol + Δ5-avenasterol + Δ5,24-stigmastadienol.
Calculate the percentage of erythrodiol and uvaol:
where:
AEr |
= |
Area of Erythrodiol in computing system counts. |
AUv |
= |
Area of Uvaol in computing system counts. |
Σ AT |
= |
Sum area for sterol + erythrodiol + uvaol in computing system counts. |
Besides the calculation of relative percentage of single sterols and triterpenic dialcohols and the total concentration of sterols, the concentration of erythrodiol and of uvaol and their sum, in mg/kg of fatty material must be calculated, according the following expressions:
where:
AEr |
= |
Peak area of Erythrodiol, in computing system counts. |
AUv |
= |
Area of Uvaol in computing system counts. |
As |
= |
Area of the α-cholestanol peak, in computing system counts. |

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2019/1606
of 27 September 2019
concerning the non-renewal of the approval of the active substance methiocarb, in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market, and amending the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market and repealing Council Directives 79/117/EEC and 91/414/EEC (1), and in particular Article 20(1) and Article 78(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Commission Directive 2007/5/EC (2) included methiocarb as an active substance in Annex I to Council Directive 91/414/EEC (3). |
(2) |
Active substances included in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC are deemed to have been approved under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 and are listed in Part A of the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 (4). |
(3) |
The approval of the active substance methiocarb, as set out in Part A of the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011, expires on 31 July 2020. |
(4) |
An application for the renewal of the approval of methiocarb was submitted in accordance with Article 1 of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 844/2012 (5) within the time period provided for in that Article. |
(5) |
The applicant submitted the supplementary dossiers required in accordance with Article 6 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 844/2012. The application was found to be complete by the rapporteur Member State. |
(6) |
The rapporteur Member State prepared a renewal assessment report in consultation with the co-rapporteur Member State and submitted it to the European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) and the Commission on 13 July 2017. |
(7) |
The Authority communicated the renewal assessment report to the applicant and to the Member States for comments and forwarded the comments received to the Commission. The Authority also made the supplementary summary dossier available to the public. |
(8) |
On 24 September 2018 the Authority communicated to the Commission its conclusion (6) on whether methiocarb can be expected to meet the approval criteria provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009. The Commission presented the draft renewal report for methiocarb to the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed on 24 January 2019. |
(9) |
The Authority identified an unacceptable risk to workers, even when taking into account the use of personal protective equipment and a high risk to birds, mammals and earthworms. Furthermore, the Authority could not conduct the consumer risk assessment because the residue definition for risk assessment in plant commodities could not been finalised since the genotoxic potential of metabolite M01 could not be ruled out based on the available data. |
(10) |
The Commission invited the applicant to submit its comments on the conclusion of the Authority. Furthermore, in accordance with the third subparagraph of Article 14(1) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 844/2012, the Commission invited the applicant to submit comments on the draft renewal report. The applicant submitted its comments, which have been carefully examined. |
(11) |
However, despite the arguments put forward by the applicant, the concerns regarding the active substance could not be eliminated. |
(12) |
Consequently, it has not been established with respect to one or more representative uses of at least one plant protection product that the approval criteria provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 are satisfied. It is therefore appropriate not to renew the approval of the active substance methiocarb in accordance with Article 20(1)(b) of that Regulation. |
(13) |
Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 should therefore be amended accordingly. |
(14) |
Member States should be provided with sufficient time to withdraw authorisations for plant protection products containing methiocarb. Taking into account the risk identified for workers from loading and sowing the treated seeds and for birds, wild mammals, earthworms from treated seeds, for plant protection products containing methiocarb, where Member States grant any grace period in accordance with Article 46 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009, that period should at the latest, expire on 3 April 2020. |
(15) |
Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/707 (7) extended the approval period of methiocarb to 31 July 2020 in order to allow the renewal process to be completed before the expiry of the approval of that substance. However, given that a decision on the non-renewal of the approval is taken ahead of that extended expiry date, this Regulation should apply as soon as possible. |
(16) |
This Regulation does not prejudice the submission of a further application for the approval of methiocarb in accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009. |
(17) |
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
Non-renewal of the approval of the active substance
The approval of the active substance methiocarb is not renewed.
Article 2
Amendment to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011
In Part A of the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011, row 148, on methiocarb, is deleted.
Article 3
Transitional measures
Member States shall withdraw authorisations for plant protection products containing methiocarb as active substance by 3 January 2020 at the latest.
Article 4
Grace period
Any grace period granted by Member States in accordance with Article 46 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 shall be as short as possible and shall expire by 3 April 2020, at the latest.
Article 5
Entry into force and application
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.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2019/1607
of 27 September 2019
amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1239 as regards the applicable closing dates for the submission of licence applications
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 178(b) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1239 (2) lays down common provisions as regards the application for and the issue of import and export licences for agricultural products. It contains provisions on the deadlines for licence applications and requests for cancellation. In particular, it contains provisions for cases in which that Regulation sets a period for procedures, in order to determine the opening or closing dates for that period where those dates fall on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday. |
(2) |
To facilitate tariff quota management across the Union, it is necessary to ensure that all agricultural tariff quotas managed by licences are subject to the same rules establishing deadlines for licence applications. |
(3) |
Applicants should be able to lodge the licence applications regardless of public holidays in the Member States. Currently, closing dates for licence applications falling on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday are determined differently, depending on whether the application period is defined by reference to a specified date or the length of that period. For the latter case, Article 3(4) of Council Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 1182/71 (3) provides that if the period ends on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday, the closing date for application is the working day following that Saturday, Sunday or public holiday. In accordance with Article 5 of that Regulation, where the application period is defined by reference to a specified date, it ends on the last hour of the closing date. This means that, in the absence of a specific provision for cases where the closing date of application periods defined by reference to a specified date ends on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday, applications would have to be submitted by the last working day preceding the Saturday, Sunday or public holiday in such cases. |
(4) |
To avoid uncertainty about the relevant closing date, the closing dates for the submission of licence applications that fall on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday should be advanced in all cases, irrespective of whether the application period is defined by reference to a specified date or the length of that period. In addition, Member States that want to provide for the necessary working arrangements allowing the submission of licence applications on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday should be allowed to do so. For such cases, in order to ensure transparency in the management of licence applications, rules should be laid down to ensure that applicants are informed about such arrangements. |
(5) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for the Common Organisation of the Agricultural Markets, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Article 3(3) of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1239 is amended as follows:
(1) |
point (b) is replaced by the following:
|
(2) |
the following second subparagraph is added: ‘Point (b) of the first subparagraph shall also apply where the applicable closing date is defined by reference to a specified date and that date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday.’ |
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.

COUNCIL DECISION (EU) 2019/1608
of 16 September 2019
on the position to be taken on behalf of the European Union within the European Committee for drawing up standards in the field of inland navigation and within the Central Commission for Navigation of the Rhine on the adoption of models in the field of professional qualifications in inland navigation
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 91(1), in conjunction with Article 218(9) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) |
The Revised Convention for Rhine Navigation (‘the Convention’) entered into force on 14 April 1967. |
(2) |
Pursuant to Article 46 of the Convention, the Central Commission for Navigation of the Rhine (CCNR) is able to adopt resolutions which are binding for its members. |
(3) |
The European Committee for drawing up standards in the field of inland navigation (CESNI) was created on 3 June 2015 in the framework of the CCNR in order to develop technical standards for inland waterways in various fields, in particular as regards vessels, information technology and crew. |
(4) |
At its next meeting, which is due to take place on 15 October 2019, CESNI will adopt standards on models in the field of professional qualifications in inland navigation. The CCNR will also adopt a resolution that will incorporate those models into the Regulations for Rhine navigation personnel. |
(5) |
It is appropriate to establish the position to be taken on the Union's behalf in CESNI and the CCNR, as the standards on models in the field of professional qualifications will decisively influence the content of Union law, namely Directive (EU) 2017/2397 of the European Parliament and of the Council (1). |
(6) |
In order to facilitate mobility and ensure safety, it is important that the models used by crew members for the purpose of ensuring the recognition of their qualifications be as harmonised as possible under the different legal regimes across Europe. In particular, Member States that are also members of the CCNR should be authorised to support decisions harmonising CCNR rules with those applied in the Union. |
(7) |
The models developed by CESNI for qualification certificates, for the service record book, for the logbook, for a single document combining qualification certificates and the service record book and for practical examination certificates constitute a harmonisation of European standards. |
(8) |
The position of the Union should be expressed by the Member States that are members of CESNI and the CCNR, acting jointly, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
1. The position to be taken on behalf of the Union within the European Committee for drawing up standards in the field of inland navigation (CESNI) on 15 October 2019 shall be to agree to the adoption of the European standards on models in the field of professional qualifications in inland navigation set out in the attachment to this Decision.
2. The position to be taken on behalf of the Union at the meeting of the plenary session of the Central Commission for Navigation of the Rhine (CCNR) shall be to support all proposals that align the requirements of the Regulations for Rhine navigation personnel with those of the European standards on models in the field of professional qualifications in inland navigation set out in the attachment to this Decision.
Article 2
1. The position referred to in Article 1(1) shall be expressed by the Member States that are members of CESNI, acting jointly.
2. The position referred to in Article 1(2) shall be expressed by the Member States that are members of the CCNR, acting jointly.
Article 3
This Decision shall enter into force on the date of its adoption.
Done at Brussels, 16 September 2019.

of 26 September 2019
authorising Member States to provide for derogations from certain provisions of Council Directive 2000/29/EC in respect of potatoes, other than potatoes intended for planting, originating in the regions of Akkar and Bekaa of Lebanon
(notified under document C(2019) 6819)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Directive 2000/29/EC of 8 May 2000 on protective measures against the introduction into the Community of organisms harmful to plants or plant products and against their spread within the Community (1), and in particular the first indent of Article 15(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
In accordance with Article 4(1) of Directive 2000/29/EC in conjunction with point 12 of Part A of Annex III thereto, Member States shall ban the introduction into the Union of potatoes, other than potatoes intended for planting, originating in Lebanon. Pursuant to Article 15(1) of that Directive derogations from that ban may, however, be provided for if there is no risk of spreading harmful organisms. |
(2) |
In accordance with Article 5(1) of Directive 2000/29/EC in conjunction with point 25.2 of Section I of Part A of Annex IV thereto, Member States shall ban the introduction into the Union of potatoes unless they originate in countries known to be free from Clavibacter michiganensis (Smith) Davis et al. ssp. sepedonicus (Spieckermann and Kotthoff) Davis et al. hereinafter ‘the specified organism’, or applying provisions recognised as equivalent to the Union provisions for combatting that organism. Lebanon fulfils neither of those conditions. However, pursuant to Article 15(1) of that Directive, derogations from that ban may be provided for if there is no risk of spreading harmful organisms. |
(3) |
Commission Implementing Decision 2013/413/EU (2) authorising derogations from certain provisions of Directive 2000/29/EC in respect of potatoes, other than potatoes intended for planting, originating in the regions of Akkar and Bekaa of Lebanon expired on 31 October 2018. |
(4) |
Lebanon has supplied new information to demonstrate that potatoes, other than potatoes intended for planting, originating from the regions of Akkar and Bekaa are grown under adequate phytosanitary conditions to ensure the protection of the Union territory from the specified organism. |
(5) |
Therefore, the introduction into the Union of potatoes, other than potatoes intended for planting, originating in the regions of Akkar and Bekaa in Lebanon should be permitted provided they satisfy conditions ensuring that the specified organism is not present on potatoes when they are introduced into the Union territory. Those conditions should concern the production in areas free from the specified organism, conduct of surveys of those areas, production from certified seed potatoes, handling, storage, packaging and preparation requirements. |
(6) |
The potatoes should be introduced into the Union through designated points of entry, to ensure effective controls and reduction of any phytosanitary risk. |
(7) |
Inspection requirements should be set out to ensure control of the phytosanitary risk. It should be laid down that sampling and testing is to be carried out in accordance with the existing test scheme established by Council Directive 93/85/EEC (3). |
(8) |
The potatoes should only be introduced and moved within the Union if they are appropriately labelled to indicate the Lebanese origin and other relevant information, with the aim of preventing the potatoes from being planted and to ensure identification and traceability of the potatoes. |
(9) |
The derogation should be for a limited period. |
(10) |
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plant Health, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION (EU) 2019/1615
of 26 September 2019
establishing emergency measures to prevent the introduction into and the spread within the Union of Tomato brown rugose fruit virus (ToBRFV)
(notified under document C(2019) 6826)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Directive 2000/29/EC of 8 May 2000 on protective measures against the introduction into the Community of organisms harmful to plants or plant products and against their spread within the Community (1), and in particular the third sentence of Article 16(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Tomato brown rugose fruit virus (‘the specified organism’) is a harmful organism currently not listed in Annex I or Annex II to Directive 2000/29/EC. |
(2) |
However, in late 2018 Germany and Italy reported outbreaks of the specified organism on tomato crops in their territories and of the measures taken to control it. A pest risk analysis carried out by Italy has demonstrated that the specified organism and its damaging effects could be of significant plant health concern to the Union, in particular for Solanum lycopersicum L. and Capsicum annuum production. |
(3) |
Member States should therefore ensure that any person having under their control plants which may be infected with the specified organism is informed about its potential presence and the measures to be taken. |
(4) |
Member States should furthermore carry out annual surveys for the presence of the specified organism in their territories, to ensure a more pro-active approach against the establishment and spread of that organism. |
(5) |
In view of the evidence from Germany and Italy and of the spread of the specified organism in a rising number of third countries, susceptible specified plants for planting, including seed, should be subject to specific measures when introduced into the Union and should be accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate. |
(6) |
Those specific measures should provide for the timely detection of the specified organism in the Union territory, requirements for the introduction into the Union of the specified plants for planting, including seed, as well as official checks to be conducted at the introduction of the specified plants for planting including seed into the Union. |
(7) |
Such measures are necessary to ensure an enhanced protection of the Union territory from the entry, establishment and spread of the specified organism. |
(8) |
In order to allow the responsible official bodies and the professional operators to adapt to those requirements, this Decision should apply from 1 November 2019. |
(9) |
This Decision should be temporary and apply until 31 March 2022 to allow for its review before that time. |
(10) |
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed, |

(a) |
they originate in areas where the specified organism is known not to occur; |
(b) |
in the case of plants for planting, other than seeds:
|
(c) |
in the case of seeds, official sampling and testing for the specified organism has been carried out, on a representative sample using appropriate methods, and they have been found, in these tests, to be free of the specified organism. |

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION (EU) 2019/1616
of 27 September 2019
on the harmonised standards for pressure equipment drafted in support of Directive 2014/68/EU 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) No 1025/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 October 2012 on European standardisation, amending Council Directives 89/686/EEC and 93/15/EEC and Directives 94/9/EC, 94/25/EC, 95/16/EC, 97/23/EC, 98/34/EC, 2004/22/EC, 2007/23/EC, 2009/23/EC and 2009/105/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Council Decision 87/95/EEC and Decision No 1673/2006/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (1), and in particular Article 10(6) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
In accordance with Article 12 of Directive 2014/68/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council (2), pressure equipment or assemblies referred to in Article 4(1) and (2) of that Directive which are in conformity with harmonised standards or parts thereof, the references of which have been published in the Official Journal of the European Union, are to be presumed to be in conformity with the essential safety requirements covered by those standards or parts thereof referred to in Annex I to that Directive. |
(2) |
By letter M/071 of 1 August 1994 the Commission made a request to the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) for drawing up, in relation to the pressure equipment, the product related standards and the standards of a horizontal nature in support of Directive 97/23/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (3). That Directive was replaced by Directive 2014/68/EU without changing the essential safety requirements referred to in Annex I to Directive 97/23/EC. |
(3) |
On the basis of the request M/071 CEN drafted new harmonised standards EN ISO 4126-2:2019 for safety devices for protection against excessive pressure, EN ISO 15494:2018 for plastics piping systems for industrial applications and EN ISO 21028-2:2018 for cryogenic vessels. Standard EN ISO 21028-2:2018 is a new standard replacing EN 1252-2:2001. In order to reflect the state of the art, CEN amended and revised some of the existing standards. Specifically, CEN amended standards EN 13445-2:2014, EN 13445-3:2014, EN 13445-5:2014 and EN 13445-6:2014 for unfired pressure vessels, and standards EN 13480-2:2017 and EN 13480-5:2017 for metallic industrial piping. CEN also revised standards EN 1562:2012 and EN 1563:2011 for cast iron, standards EN 12516-1:2014 and EN 12516-4:2014 for industrial valves and standard EN 13136:2013 for refrigerating systems and heat pumps. |
(4) |
The Commission together with the CEN has assessed whether the standards on the pressure equipment as drafted, amended or revised by CEN comply with the request M/071. |
(5) |
The standards on the pressure equipment as drafted, amended or revised by CEN satisfy the requirements which they aim to cover and which are referred to in Annex I to Directive 2014/68/EU. It is therefore appropriate to publish the references of those standards in the Official Journal of the European Union. |
(6) |
References of amended or revised versions of standards are to be published for the standards EN 13445-2:2014, EN 13445-3:2014, EN 13445-5:2014, EN 13445-6:2014, EN 13480-2:2017, EN 13480-5:2017, EN 1562:2012, EN 1563:2011, EN 12516-1:2014, EN 12516-4:2014 and EN 13136:2013. Standard EN 1252-2:2001 is to be replaced by a new standard. It is therefore necessary to withdraw from the Official Journal of the European Union (4) references of the standards EN 13445-2:2014, EN 13445-2:2014/A1:2016, EN 13445-2:2014/A2:2018, EN 13445-3:2014, EN 13445-3:2014/A1:2015, EN 13445-3:2014/A2:2016, EN 13445-3:2014/A3:2017, EN 13445-3:2014/A4:2018, EN 13445-5:2014, EN 13445-6:2014, EN 13480-2:2017, EN 13480-5:2017, EN 1252-2:2001, EN 1562:2012, EN 1563:2011, EN 12516-1:2014, EN 12516-4:2014 and EN 13136:2013. In order to provide the manufacturers with sufficient time to adapt their products to the new standards for cryogenic vessels and the revised standards for cast iron, industrial valves and refrigeration systems and heat pumps, it is necessary to defer the withdrawal of the references of those standards. |
(7) |
Compliance with a harmonised standard confers a presumption of conformity with the corresponding essential requirements set out in Union harmonisation legislation from the date of publication of the reference of such standard in the Official Journal of the European Union. This Decision should therefore enter into force on the day of its publication, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The references of harmonised standards for pressure equipment drafted in support of Directive 2014/68/EU, listed in Annex I to this Decision, are hereby published in the Official Journal of the European Union.
Article 2

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION (EU) 2019/1617
of 27 September 2019
amending the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU concerning animal health control measures relating to African swine fever in certain Member States
(notified under document C(2019) 7044)
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Directive 89/662/EEC of 11 December 1989 concerning veterinary checks in intra-Community trade with a view to the completion of the internal market (1), and in particular Article 9(4) thereof,
Having regard to Council Directive 90/425/EEC of 26 June 1990 concerning veterinary checks applicable in intra-Union trade in certain live animals and products with a view to the completion of the internal market (2), and in particular Article 10(4) thereof,
Having regard to Council Directive 2002/99/EC of 16 December 2002 laying down the animal health rules governing the production, processing, distribution and introduction of products of animal origin for human consumption (3), and in particular Article 4(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Commission Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU (4) lays down animal health control measures in relation to African swine fever in certain Member States, where there have been confirmed cases of that disease in domestic or feral pigs (the Member States concerned). The Annex to that Implementing Decision demarcates and lists certain areas of the Member States concerned in Parts I to IV thereof, differentiated by the level of risk based on the epidemiological situation as regards that disease. The Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU has been amended several times to take account of changes in the epidemiological situation in the Union as regards African swine fever that need to be reflected in that Annex. The Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU was last amended by Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2019/1392 (5), following instances of African swine fever in Bulgaria. |
(2) |
The risk of the spread of African swine fever in wildlife is linked to the natural slow spread of that disease among feral pig populations, and also to human activity, as demonstrated by the recent epidemiological evolution of that disease in the Union, and as documented by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) in the Scientific Opinion of the Panel on Animal Health and Welfare, published on 14 July 2015; in the Scientific Report of EFSA on Epidemiological analyses on African swine fever in the Baltic countries and Poland, published on 23 March 2017; in the Scientific Report of EFSA on Epidemiological analyses of African swine fever in the Baltic States and Poland, published on 8 November 2017; and in the Scientific Report of EFSA on Epidemiological analyses of African swine fever in the European Union, published on 29 November 2018 (6). |
(3) |
Council Directive 2002/60/EC lays down the minimum Union measures to be taken for the control of African swine fever. In particular, Article 9 of Directive 2002/60/EC provides for the establishment of a protection and a surveillance zone when African swine fever has been officially confirmed in pigs on a holding, and Articles 10 and 11 of that Directive lay down the measures to be taken in the protection and surveillance zones in order to prevent the spread of that disease. Recent experience has shown that the measures laid down in Directive 2002/60/EC are effective in controlling the spread of that disease, and in particular the measures providing for the cleaning and disinfecting of infected holdings and other measures related to the eradication of that disease. |
(4) |
Taking into account the effectiveness of the measures being applied in the Member States in accordance with Directive 2002/60/EC, and in particular those laid down in Article 10(4)(b) and Article 10(5) thereof, and in line with the risk mitigation measures for African swine fever set out in the Terrestrial Animal Health Code of the World Organization for Animal Health, certain areas in the districts of lubelski, bialski, siedlecki and hrubieszowski in Poland and in the counties of Saldus and Brocēnu in Latvia currently listed in Part III of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU should now be listed in Part II of that Annex, in view of the expiry of the period of three months from the date of the final cleaning and disinfection of the infected holdings and due to the absence of ASF outbreaks in those areas for the past 12 months. Given that Part III of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU lists the areas where the epidemiological situation is still evolving and very dynamic, when any amendments are made to areas listed in that Part, particular consideration must always be given to the effect on the surrounding areas. |
(5) |
Since the date of adoption of Implementing Decision (EU) 2019/1392, there have been further outbreaks of African swine fever in domestic pigs and cases in feral pigs in Lithuania, Bulgaria,Romania and Poland. Following these recent outbreaks and cases of that disease, and taking into account the current epidemiological situation in the Union, regionalisation in these four Member States has been reassessed and updated. In addition, the risk management measures in place also have been reassessed and updated. These changes need to be reflected in the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU. |
(6) |
In September 2019, one outbreak of African swine fever in domestic pigs was observed in the county of Kaunas in Lithuania in an area currently listed in Part II of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU. This outbreak of African swine fever constitutes an increased level of risk which should be reflected in that Annex. Accordingly, this area of Lithuania affected by African swine fever should now be listed in Part III of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU, instead of in Part II thereof. |
(7) |
In September 2019, one outbreak of African swine fever in domestic pigs was observed in the region of Kardzhali in Bulgaria in an area currently listed in Part I of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU. This outbreak of African swine fever constitutes an increased level of risk which should be reflected in that Annex. Accordingly, this area of Bulgaria affected by African swine fever should now be listed in Part III of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU, instead of in Part I thereof. |
(8) |
In September 2019, one case of African swine fever in feral pigs was observed in the region of Lovech in Bulgaria in an area currently listed in Part III of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU in close proximity to an area currently listed in Part I of the Annex thereto. This case of African swine fever constitutes an increased level of risk which should be reflected in that Annex. Accordingly, this area of Bulgaria affected by African swine fever should now be listed in Part II of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU, instead of in Part I thereof. |
(9) |
In September 2019, one outbreak of African swine fever in domestic pigs was observed in the county of Iași in Romania in an area currently listed in Part I of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU. This outbreak of African swine fever constitutes an increased level of risk which should be reflected in that Annex. Accordingly, this area of Romania affected by African swine fever should now be listed in Part III of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU, instead of in Part I thereof. |
(10) |
In September 2019, few cases of African swine fever in feral pigs were observed in the districts of lubelski and zwoleński in Poland in an area currently listed in Part II of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU in close proximity to areas currently listed in Part I of the Annex thereto. These cases of African swine fever constitute an increased level of risk which should be reflected in that Annex. Accordingly, these areas of Poland affected by African swine fever should now be listed in Part II of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU, instead of in Part I thereof. |
(11) |
In September 2019, one outbreak of African swine fever in domestic pigs was observed in the district of lidzbarski in Poland in an area currently listed in Part II of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU. This outbreak of African swine fever constitutes an increased level of risk which should be reflected in that Annex. Accordingly, this area of Poland affected by African swine fever should now be listed in Part III of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU, instead of in Part II thereof. |
(12) |
In order to take account of recent developments in the epidemiological evolution of African swine fever in the Union, and in order to combat the risks associated with the spread of that disease in a proactive manner, a new high-risk area of a sufficient size should be demarcated for Lithuania, Bulgaria, Romania and Poland and duly listed in Parts II and III of the Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU. The Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU should therefore be amended accordingly. |
(13) |
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

The Annex to Implementing Decision 2014/709/EU is replaced by the text set out in the Annex to this Decision.
