COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 359/2009
of 30 April 2009
suspending the introduction into the Community of specimens of certain species of wild fauna and flora
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 338/97 of 9 December 1996 on the protection of species of wild fauna and flora by regulating trade therein (1), and in particular Article 19(2) thereof,
After consulting the Scientific Review Group,
Whereas:
(1) |
Article 4(6) of Regulation (EC) No 338/97 provides that the Commission may establish restrictions to the introduction of certain species into the Community in accordance with the conditions laid down in points (a) to (d) thereof. Furthermore, implementing measures for such restrictions have been laid down in Commission Regulation (EC) No 865/2006 of 4 May 2006 laying down detailed rules concerning the implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No 338/97 of the protection of species of wild fauna and flora by regulating trade therein (2). |
(2) |
A list of species for which the introduction into the Community is suspended was established in Commission Regulation (EC) No 811/2008 of 13 August 2008 suspending the introduction into the Community of specimens of certain species of wild fauna and flora (3). |
(3) |
On the basis of recent information, the Scientific Review Group has concluded that the conservation status of certain species listed in Annexes A and B to Regulation (EC) No 338/97 will be seriously jeopardised if their introduction into the Community from certain countries of origin is not suspended. The introduction of the following species should therefore be suspended:
|
(4) |
The Scientific Review Group has also concluded that, on the basis of the most recent available information, the suspension of the introduction into the Community of the following species should no longer be required:
|
(5) |
The countries of origin of the species which are subject to new restrictions to introduction into the Community pursuant to this Regulation have all been consulted. |
(6) |
Some inconsistencies between the Appendices of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) and the scientific names in the nomenclatural references for animals adopted at the 14th Conference of the Parties to CITES should be corrected. |
(7) |
The list of species for which the introduction into the Community is suspended should therefore be amended and Regulation (EC) No 811/2008 should be, for clarity reasons, replaced. |
(8) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on Trade in Wild Fauna and Flora, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Subject to the provisions of Article 71 of Regulation (EC) No 865/2006, the introduction into the Community of specimens of the species of wild fauna and flora listed in the Annex to this Regulation is hereby suspended.
Article 2
Regulation (EC) No 811/2008 is repealed.
References to the repealed Regulation shall be construed as references to this Regulation.
Article 3
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th 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.
Done at Brussels, 30 April 2009.

DIRECTIVE 2009/22/EC OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL
of 23 April 2009
on injunctions for the protection of consumers' interests
(Codified version)
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 95 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (1),
Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (2),
Whereas:
(1) |
Directive 98/27/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 May 1998 on injunctions for the protection of consumers' interests (3) has been substantially amended several times (4). In the interests of clarity and rationality the said Directive should be codified. |
(2) |
Certain Directives, listed in Annex I to this Directive, lay down rules with regard to the protection of consumers' interests. |
(3) |
Current mechanisms available for ensuring compliance with those Directives, both at national and at Community level, do not always allow infringements harmful to the collective interests of consumers to be terminated in good time. Collective interests means interests which do not include the cumulation of interests of individuals who have been harmed by an infringement. This is without prejudice to individual actions brought by individuals who have been harmed by an infringement. |
(4) |
As far as the purpose of bringing about the cessation of practices that are unlawful under the national provisions applicable is concerned, the effectiveness of national measures transposing the Directives in question, including protective measures that go beyond the level required by those Directives, provided they are compatible with the Treaty and allowed by those Directives, may be thwarted where those practices produce effects in a Member State other than that in which they originate. |
(5) |
Those difficulties can disrupt the smooth functioning of the internal market, their consequence being that it is sufficient to move the source of an unlawful practice to another country in order to place it out of reach of all forms of enforcement. This constitutes a distortion of competition. |
(6) |
Those difficulties are likely to diminish consumer confidence in the internal market and may limit the scope for action by organisations representing the collective interests of consumers or independent public bodies responsible for protecting the collective interests of consumers, adversely affected by practices that infringe Community law. |
(7) |
Those practices often extend beyond the frontiers between the Member States. There is an urgent need for some degree of approximation of national provisions designed to enjoin the cessation of the unlawful practices irrespective of the Member State in which the unlawful practice has produced its effects. With regard to jurisdiction, this is without prejudice to the rules of private international law and the Conventions in force between Member States, while respecting the general obligations of the Member States deriving from the Treaty, in particular those related to the smooth functioning of the internal market. |
(8) |
The objective of the action envisaged can only be attained by the Community. It is therefore incumbent on the Community to act. |
(9) |
The third paragraph of Article 5 of the Treaty makes it incumbent on the Community not to go beyond what is necessary to achieve the objectives of the Treaty. In accordance with that Article, the specific features of national legal systems must be taken into account to every extent possible by leaving Member States free to choose between different options having equivalent effect. The courts or administrative authorities competent to rule on the proceedings referred to in this Directive should have the right to examine the effects of previous decisions. |
(10) |
One option should consist in requiring one or more independent public bodies, specifically responsible for the protection of the collective interests of consumers, to exercise the rights of action set out in this Directive. Another option should provide for the exercise of those rights by organisations whose purpose is to protect the collective interests of consumers, in accordance with criteria laid down by national law. |
(11) |
Member States should be able to choose between or combine these two options in designating at national level the bodies and/or organisations qualified for the purposes of this Directive. |
(12) |
For the purposes of intra-Community infringements the principle of mutual recognition should apply to these bodies and/or organisations. The Member States should, at the request of their national entities, communicate to the Commission the name and purpose of their national entities which are qualified to bring an action in their own country according to the provisions of this Directive. |
(13) |
It is the business of the Commission to ensure the publication of a list of these qualified entities in the Official Journal of the European Union. Until a statement to the contrary is published, a qualified entity is assumed to have legal capacity if its name is included in that list. |
(14) |
Member States should be able to require that a prior consultation be undertaken by the party that intends to bring an action for an injunction, in order to give the defendant an opportunity to bring the contested infringement to an end. Member States should be able to require that this prior consultation take place jointly with an independent public body designated by those Member States. |
(15) |
Where the Member States have established that there should be prior consultation, a deadline of two weeks after the request for consultation is received should be set after which, should the cessation of the infringement not be achieved, the applicant shall be entitled to bring an action, without any further delay, before the competent court or administrative authority. |
(16) |
It is appropriate that the Commission report on the functioning of this Directive and in particular on its scope and on the operation of prior consultation. |
(17) |
The application of this Directive should not prejudice the application of Community competition rules. |
(18) |
This Directive should be without prejudice to the obligations of the Member States concerning the time limits for transposition and application in national law of the Directives set out in Annex II, Part B, |
HAVE ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:
Article 1
Scope
1. The purpose of this Directive is to approximate the laws, regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States relating to actions for an injunction referred to in Article 2 aimed at the protection of the collective interests of consumers included in the Directives listed in Annex I, with a view to ensuring the smooth functioning of the internal market.
2. For the purposes of this Directive, an infringement means any act contrary to the Directives listed in Annex I as transposed into the internal legal order of the Member States which harms the collective interests referred to in paragraph 1.
Article 2
Actions for an injunction
1. Member States shall designate the courts or administrative authorities competent to rule on proceedings commenced by qualified entities within the meaning of Article 3 seeking:
(a) |
an order with all due expediency, where appropriate by way of summary procedure, requiring the cessation or prohibition of any infringement; |
(b) |
where appropriate, measures such as the publication of the decision, in full or in part, in such form as deemed adequate and/or the publication of a corrective statement with a view to eliminating the continuing effects of the infringement; |
(c) |
in so far as the legal system of the Member State concerned so permits, an order against the losing defendant for payments into the public purse or to any beneficiary designated in or under national legislation, in the event of failure to comply with the decision within a time limit specified by the courts or administrative authorities, of a fixed amount for each day’s delay or any other amount provided for in national legislation, with a view to ensuring compliance with the decisions. |
2. This Directive shall be without prejudice to the rules of private international law with respect to the applicable law, that is, normally, either the law of the Member State where the infringement originated or the law of the Member State where the infringement has its effects.
Article 3
Entities qualified to bring an action
For the purposes of this Directive, a ‘qualified entity’ means any body or organisation which, being properly constituted according to the law of a Member State, has a legitimate interest in ensuring that the provisions referred to in Article 1 are complied with, in particular:
(a) |
one or more independent public bodies, specifically responsible for protecting the interests referred to in Article 1, in Member States in which such bodies exist; and/or |
(b) |
organisations whose purpose is to protect the interests referred to in Article 1, in accordance with the criteria laid down by the national law. |
Article 4
Intra-Community infringements
1. Each Member State shall take the measures necessary to ensure that, in the event of an infringement originating in that Member State, any qualified entity from another Member State where the interests protected by that qualified entity are affected by the infringement, may apply to the court or administrative authority referred to in Article 2, on presentation of the list provided for in paragraph 3 of this Article. The courts or administrative authorities shall accept this list as proof of the legal capacity of the qualified entity without prejudice to their right to examine whether the purpose of the qualified entity justifies its taking action in a specific case.
2. For the purposes of intra-Community infringements, and without prejudice to the rights granted to other entities under national legislation, the Member States shall, at the request of their qualified entities, communicate to the Commission that these entities are qualified to bring an action under Article 2. The Member States shall inform the Commission of the name and purpose of these qualified entities.
3. The Commission shall draw up a list of the qualified entities referred to in paragraph 2, with the specification of their purpose. This list shall be published in the Official Journal of the European Union; changes to this list shall be published without delay and the updated list shall be published every six months.
Article 5
Prior consultation
1. Member States may introduce or maintain in force provisions whereby the party that intends to seek an injunction can only start this procedure after it has tried to achieve the cessation of the infringement in consultation either with the defendant or with both the defendant and a qualified entity within the meaning of Article 3(a) of the Member State in which the injunction is sought. It shall be for the Member State to decide whether the party seeking the injunction must consult the qualified entity. If the cessation of the infringement is not achieved within two weeks after the request for consultation is received, the party concerned may bring an action for an injunction without any further delay.
2. The rules governing prior consultation adopted by Member States shall be notified to the Commission and shall be published in the Official Journal of the European Union.
Article 6
Reports
1. Every three years and for the first time no later than 2 July 2003 the Commission shall submit to the European Parliament and to the Council a report on the application of this Directive.
2. In its first report the Commission shall examine in particular:
(a) |
the scope of this Directive in relation to the protection of the collective interests of persons exercising a commercial, industrial, craft or professional activity; |
(b) |
the scope of this Directive as determined by the Directives listed in Annex I; |
(c) |
whether the prior consultation provided for in Article 5 has contributed to the effective protection of consumers. |
Where appropriate, this report shall be accompanied by proposals with a view to amending this Directive.
Article 7
Provisions for wider action
This Directive shall not prevent Member States from adopting or maintaining in force provisions designed to grant qualified entities and any other person concerned more extensive rights to bring action at national level.
Article 8
Implementation
Member States shall communicate to the Commission the provisions of national law which they adopt in the field covered by this Directive.
Article 9
Repeal
Directive 98/27/EC, as amended by the Directives set out in Annex II, Part A, is repealed, without prejudice to the obligations of the Member States concerning the time limits for transposition into national law and application of the Directives set out in Annex II, Part B.
References to the repealed Directive shall be construed as references to this Directive and shall be read in accordance with the correlation table in Annex III.
Article 10
Entry into force
This Directive shall enter into force on 29 December 2009.

COMMISSION DECISION
of 30 April 2009
completing the definition of inert waste in implementation of Article 22(1)(f) of Directive 2006/21/EC of the European Parliament and the Council concerning the management of waste from extractive industries
(notified under document number C(2009) 3012)
(2009/359/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Directive 2006/21/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 March 2006 on the management of waste from extractive industries and amending Directive 2004/35/EC (1), and in particular Article 22(1)(f) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Article 3(3) of Directive 2006/21/EC provides for a definition of inert waste. |
(2) |
The purpose of complementing the definition of inert waste is to establish clear criteria and conditions under which waste from extractive industries can be considered as inert waste. |
(3) |
To minimise the administrative burden linked with the implementation of this Decision, it is appropriate from a technical point of view to exempt from specific testing those wastes for which existing relevant information is available, and to allow Member States to establish lists of waste material which could be considered as inert in accordance with the criteria set out in the present Decision. |
(4) |
In order to ensure the quality and the representativity of the information used, this Decision should be applied in the framework of the waste characterisation carried out in accordance with Commission Decision 2009/360/EC (2) and should be based on the same sources of information. |
(5) |
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 18 of Directive 2006/12/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (3), |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
1. Waste shall be considered as being inert waste, within the meaning of Article 3(3) of Directive 2006/21/EC, where all of the following criteria, are fulfilled in both the short and the long term:
(a) |
the waste will not undergo any significant disintegration or dissolution or other significant change likely to cause any adverse environmental effect or harm human health; |
(b) |
the waste has a maximum content of sulphide sulphur of 0,1 %, or the waste has a maximum content of sulphide sulphur of 1 % and the neutralising potential ratio, defined as the ratio between the neutralising potential and the acid potential, and determined on the basis of a static test prEN 15875 is greater than 3; |
(c) |
the waste presents no risk of self-combustion and will not burn; |
(d) |
the content of substances potentially harmful to the environment or human health in the waste, and in particular As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Mo, Ni, Pb, V and Zn, including in any fine particles alone of the waste, is sufficiently low to be of insignificant human and ecological risk, in both the short and the long term. In order to be considered as sufficiently low to be of insignificant human and ecological risk, the content of these substances shall not exceed national threshold values for sites identified as not contaminated or relevant national natural background levels; |
(e) |
the waste is substantially free of products used in extraction or processing that could harm the environment or human health. |
2. Waste may be considered as inert waste without specific testing if it can be demonstrated, to the satisfaction of the competent authority, that the criteria set out in paragraph 1 have been adequately considered and are met on the strength of existing information or valid procedures or schemes.
3. The Member States may draw up lists of waste materials to be regarded as inert in accordance with the criteria defined in paragraphs 1 and 2.
Article 2
The assessment of the inert property of waste in accordance with this Decision shall be completed in the framework of the waste characterisation referred in Decision 2009/360/EC and shall be based on the same sources of information.

COMMISSION DECISION
of 30 April 2009
completing the technical requirements for waste characterisation laid down by Directive 2006/21/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the management of waste from extractive industries
(notified under document number C(2009) 3013)
(2009/360/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Directive 2006/21/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 March 2006 on the management of waste from extractive industries and amending Directive 2004/35/EC (1), and in particular Article 22(1)(e) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Directive 2006/21/EC provides for waste characterisation as part of the waste management plan, which has to be drawn up by the operator of extractive industries and approved by the competent authority. Annex II of that Directive provides a list of certain aspects to be included in the waste characterisation. |
(2) |
The purpose of the characterisation of extractive waste is to obtain the relevant information on the waste to be managed in order to be able to assess and monitor its properties, behaviour and characteristics and thereby ensure that it is managed under environmentally safe conditions in the long term. Furthermore, the characterisation of extractive waste should facilitate the determination of the options for managing such waste and the related mitigation measures in order to protect human health and the environment. |
(3) |
The necessary information and data for the characterisation of extractive waste should be collected on the basis of existing relevant and appropriate information or, if needed, by sampling and testing. It should be ensured that information and data for waste characterisation are appropriate, of adequate quality and representative of the waste. This information should be duly justified in the waste management plan to the full satisfaction of the competent authority. |
(4) |
The level of detail of information to be gathered and the related sampling or testing needs should be adapted to the type of waste, the potential environmental risks, and the intended waste facility. From a technical point of view, it should be made possible to adopt an iterative approach to ensure appropriate waste characterisation. |
(5) |
From a technical point of view, it is appropriate to exempt waste defined as inert in accordance with the criteria laid down in Commission Decision 2009/359/EC (2) from part of the geochemical testing. |
(6) |
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 18 of Directive 2006/12/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (3), |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
Waste characterisation
1. Member States shall ensure that the waste characterisation to be carried out by operators in the extractive industries complies with this Decision.
2. Waste characterisation shall cover the following categories of information as specified in the Annex:
(a) |
background information; |
(b) |
geological background of deposit to be exploited; |
(c) |
nature of the waste and its intended handling; |
(d) |
geotechnical behaviour of the waste; |
(e) |
geochemical characteristics and behaviour of the waste. |
3. The criteria for defining inert waste laid down in Decision 2009/359/EC shall be taken into account for the purpose of assessing the geochemical behaviour of waste. Where, on the basis of those criteria, waste is considered to be ‘inert’, it shall be only subject to the relevant part of geochemical testing referred to in point 5 of the Annex.
Article 2
Collection and evaluation of information
1. Information and data necessary for the waste characterisation shall be collected in the order set out in paragraphs 2 to 5.
2. Existing investigations and studies, including existing permits, geological surveys, similar sites, lists of inert waste, appropriate certification schemes, European or national standards for similar material, which satisfy the technical requirements set out in the Annex shall be used.
3. The quality and representativity of all information shall be evaluated and possible missing information shall be identified.
4. Where information necessary for the characterisation of the waste is missing, a sampling plan shall be drawn up in accordance with standard EN 14899 and samples shall be taken in accordance with that sampling plan. Sampling plans shall be based on identified information as necessary, including:
(a) |
purpose of data collection, |
(b) |
testing programme and sampling requirements, |
(c) |
sampling situations, including sampling from drill-cores, excavation face, conveyor belt, heap, pond, or other relevant situation, |
(d) |
procedures and recommendations for sample numbers, size, mass, description and handling. |
The reliability and quality of the sampling results shall be evaluated.
5. The results of the characterisation process shall be evaluated. Where necessary, additional information shall be collected following the same methodology. The final result shall feed into the waste management plan.

COMMISSION DECISION
of 30 April 2009
authorising the placing on the market of lycopene as novel food ingredient under Regulation (EC) No 258/97 of the European Parliament and of the Council
(notified under document number C(2009) 3149)
(Only the English text is authentic)
(2009/362/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 258/97 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 January 1997 concerning novel foods and novel food ingredients (1), and in particular Article 7 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
On 18 July 2008 the company DSM Nutritional Products Ltd. made a request to the competent authorities of Ireland to place synthetic lycopene on the market as a novel food ingredient; on 6 October 2008 the competent food assessment body of Ireland issued its initial assessment report. In that report it came to the conclusion that, in the light of other pending applications concerning lycopene, for synthetic lycopene an additional assessment is required in order to assure that an authorisation for use of the different lycopenes as novel food ingredients is granted under the same terms. |
(2) |
The Commission forwarded the initial assessment report to all Member States on 22 October 2008. |
(3) |
On 4 December 2008 EFSA adopted the ‘Scientific Opinion of the Scientific Panel on dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies on a request from the Commission related to the safety of lycopene from Blakeslea trispora Cold Water Dispersion (CWD)’. This opinion came to the conclusions that lycopene preparations intended for use in foods and food supplements are formulated as suspensions in edible oils, direct compressible or water-dispersible powders. As lycopene may undergo oxidative changes in such formulations, sufficient antioxidative protection should be ascertained. |
(4) |
EFSA also concluded that the consumption of lycopene by the average user will stay below the Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI), but that some users of lycopene may exceed the ADI. Therefore, it appears appropriate to collect intake data for a number of years following the authorisation in order to review this authorisation in the light of any further information on the safety of lycopene and its consumption. Particular attention should be given to the collection of data regarding levels of lycopene in breakfast cereals. However, this requirement under the present Decision, applies to the use of lycopene as a novel food ingredient and not to the use of lycopene as a food colour, that falls within the scope of Council Directive 89/107/EEC of 21 December 1988 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States concerning food additives authorised for use in foodstuffs intended for human consumption (2). |
(5) |
On the basis of the scientific assessment, it is established that the synthetic lycopene complies with the criteria laid down in Article 3(1) of Regulation (EC) No 258/97. |
(6) |
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
Synthetic lycopene, hereinafter called the product, as specified in Annex I may be placed on the market in the Community as a novel food ingredient to be used in the foods listed in Annex II.
Article 2
The designation of the novel food ingredient authorised by this Decision on the labelling of the foodstuff containing it shall be ‘lycopene’.
Article 3
The company DSM Nutritional Products Ltd shall establish a monitoring programme accompanying the marketing of the product. This programme shall encompass information about use levels of lycopene in foods as specified in Annex III.
The data collected shall be made available to the Commission and Member States. In the light of new information and a report of EFSA, at the latest in the year 2014 the use of lycopene as an ingredient to foods shall be reviewed.
Article 4
This Decision is addressed to DSM Nutritional Products Ltd, Wurmis 576, CH – 4363 Kaiseraugst, Switzerland.

COMMISSION DECISION
of 30 April 2009
amending Decision 2002/253/EC laying down case definitions for reporting communicable diseases to the Community network under Decision No 2119/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council
(notified under document number C(2009) 3517)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2009/363/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Decision No 2119/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 September 1998 setting up a network for the epidemiological surveillance and control of communicable diseases in the Community (1), and in particular Article 3(c) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
According to point 2.1 of Annex I to Commission Decision 2000/96/EC of 22 December 1999 on the communicable diseases to be progressively covered by the Community network under Decision No 2119/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (2), ‘diseases preventable by vaccination’, including ‘influenza’, are covered by epidemiological surveillance in the Community network pursuant to Decision No 2119/98/EC. |
(2) |
According to Article 2 of Commission Decision 2002/253/EC of 19 March 2002 laying down case definitions for reporting communicable diseases to the Community network under Decision No 2119/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (3), the case definitions laid down in Annex to that Decision should be updated to the extent necessary on the basis of the latest scientific data. |
(3) |
Several cases of a novel influenza virus have been reported in North America and more recently in several Member States. This virus is one of the multiple forms that can take the disease ‘influenza’, listed in Annex I to Decision 2000/96/EC. However, given that this new virus poses a risk of a pandemic influenza and requires an immediate coordination between the Community and the national competent authorities, it is necessary to provide for a specific case definition differentiating it from the more general case definition of influenza, that will enable the national competent authorities to communicate relevant information to the Community network pursuant to Article 4 of Decision No 2119/98/EC. |
(4) |
In accordance with Article 9 of the Regulation (EC) No 851/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 April 2004 establishing a European Centre for disease prevention and control (4) (ECDC), the ECDC provided, at the request of the Commission, a technical document on the case definition for this communicable disease assisting the Commission and Member States in the development of intervention strategies in the field of surveillance and response. The case definitions listed in the Annex to Decision 2002/253/EC should be updated on the basis of this contribution. |
(5) |
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee set up by Article 7 of Decision No 2119/98/EC, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The Annex to Decision 2002/253/EC is completed by the additional case definition contained in the Annex to the present Decision.
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
