COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 349/2014

of 3 April 2014

concerning the classification of certain goods in the Combined Nomenclature

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff (1), and in particular Article 9(1)(a) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

In order to ensure uniform application of the Combined Nomenclature annexed to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87, it is necessary to adopt measures concerning the classification of the goods referred to in the Annex to this Regulation.

(2)

Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 has laid down the general rules for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature. Those rules apply also to any other nomenclature which is wholly or partly based on it or which adds any additional subdivision to it and which is established by specific provisions of the Union, with a view to the application of tariff and other measures relating to trade in goods.

(3)

Pursuant to those general rules, the goods described in column (1) of the table set out in the Annex should be classified under the CN code indicated in column (2), by virtue of the reasons set out in column (3) of that table.

(4)

It is appropriate to provide that binding tariff information issued in respect of the goods concerned by this Regulation which does not conform to this Regulation may, for a certain period, continue to be invoked by the holder in accordance with Article 12(6) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 (2). That period should be set at three months.

(5)

The Customs Code Committee has not issued an opinion within the time limit set by its Chairman,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The goods described in column (1) of the table set out in the Annex shall be classified within the Combined Nomenclature under the CN code indicated in column (2) of that table.

Article 2

Binding tariff information which does not conform to this Regulation may continue to be invoked in accordance with Article 12(6) of Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 for a period of three months from the date of entry into force of this Regulation.

Article 3

This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

ANNEX

Description of the goods

Classification

(CN code)

Reasons

(1)

(2)

(3)

A soft reversible textile article in the form of a basket, measuring approximately 35 cm × 25 cm, with stuffed edges (height 10 cm) and a stuffed bottom. One of the outer sides of the article is made of woven fabric (100 % polyester), the other side is made of knitted plush fabric (100 % polyester). The article is for use by small pets.

(see photographs A and B) (1)

6307 90 98

Classification is determined by general rules 1, 3(c) and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature (GIR) and the wording of CN codes 6307, 6307 90 and 6307 90 98.

Given its objective characteristics, the article is a textile basket designed to give comfort to small pets.

Classification as furniture under heading 9403 is excluded because that heading covers products of a different nature which are used for private dwellings, hotels, offices, schools, churches, shops, laboratories, etc. (see also the Harmonized System Explanatory Notes (HSEN) to heading 9403 of the HS).

Classification under heading 9404 is also excluded as textile baskets are not similar to articles of bedding and similar furnishing. Moreover, the article has no additional elements pointing to its use as a bedding article.

The article is considered a made-up textile article within the meaning of heading 6307.

The interior and exterior are equally essential to the article, due to the fact that it can be turned inside out and used either way. As it cannot be established whether the knitted plush fabric (leading to a classification under CN code 6307 90 10) or the woven fabric (leading to a classification under CN code 6307 90 98) gives the article its essential character within the meaning of GIR 3(b), the article has to be classified under the heading which occurs last in numerical order among those which equally merit consideration.

The article is therefore to be classified under CN code 6307 90 98.

ANNEX

Description of the goods

Classification

(CN code)

Reasons

(1)

(2)

(3)

Article consisting of a wooden box covered on the inside and outside with textile fabric. The box has an opening in the front allowing a cat to enter it and is big enough for a cat to sleep in it.

On top of the box a paperboard tube is mounted vertically. The tube is covered with a cord of sisal fixed to it. The cord is made of spun sisal fibres and measures more than 20 000 decitex.

The tube is sustaining a wooden platform covered with textile fabric. The platform is big enough to allow a cat to lie on it.

A wooden tube covered in textile fabric on the inside and outside is fixed to the bottom of the platform. The tube is wide enough to allow a cat to crawl into it.

The textile fabric used is a woven pile fabric (plush of polyester).

The total surface of the textile fabric is bigger than the surface of the sisal material.

(See photograph) (1)

6307 90 98

Classification is determined by general rules 1, 3(b) and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature (GIR), note 7(f) to Section XI and the wording of CN codes 6307, 6307 90 and 6307 90 98.

Given its objective characteristics, the article is intended to attract cats and to keep them away from furniture that they would otherwise scratch and occupy.

Classification as furniture under heading 9403 is excluded because that heading covers products of a different nature which are used for private dwellings, hotels, offices, schools, churches, shops, laboratories, etc. (see also the Harmonised System Explanatory Notes (HSEN) to heading 9403 of the HS).

Classification as toys under heading 9503 is also excluded because the article is intended exclusively for animals and thus not covered by that heading in accordance with note 5 to Chapter 95.

The textile material (the woven textile fabric and the sisal cord) is essential in enabling the product to be used as intended because it attracts cats which can e.g. scratch their claws, sit, sleep on it and play with it. It is therefore the textile material (not the wood or paperboard) that gives the article its essential character within the meaning of GIR 3(b).

As it cannot be determined whether the sisal or the woven textile material is more essential to attract cats, the bigger quantity of the woven textile fabric and the wider variety of activities it provides to the cat are considered to give the article its essential character within the meaning of GIR 3(b) (see also the HSEN to GIR 3(b), (VIII)).

Within the meaning of note 7(f) to Section XI, the woven textile fabric is assembled by sewing and is consequently a made-up textile article of textile fabric.

The article is therefore to be classified under CN code 6307 90 98 as other made-up textile articles.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION

of 4 April 2014

on excluding from European Union financing certain expenditure incurred by the Member States under the Guarantee Section of the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund (EAGGF), under the European Agricultural Guarantee Fund (EAGF) and under the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD)

(notified under document C(2014) 2008)

(Only the Danish, English, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovenian, Spanish and Swedish texts are authentic)

(2014/191/EU)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1258/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the financing of the common agricultural policy (1), and in particular Article 7(4) thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1290/2005 of 21 June 2005 on the financing of the common agricultural policy (2), and in particular Article 31 thereof,

Having consulted the Committee on the Agricultural Funds,

Whereas:

(1)

Under Article 7(4) of Regulation (EC) No 1258/1999, and Article 31 of Regulation (EC) No 1290/2005, the Commission is to carry out the necessary verifications, communicate to the Member States the results of these verifications, take note of the comments of the Member States, initiate a bilateral discussion so that an agreement may be reached with the Member States in question, and formally communicate its conclusions to them.

(2)

The Member States have had an opportunity to request the launch of a conciliation procedure. That opportunity has been used in some cases and the reports issued on the outcome have been examined by the Commission.

(3)

Under Regulations (EC) No 1258/1999 and (EC) No 1290/2005, only agricultural expenditure which has been incurred in a way that has not infringed European Union rules may be financed.

(4)

In the light of the verifications carried out, the outcome of the bilateral discussions and the conciliation procedures, part of the expenditure declared by the Member States does not fulfil this requirement and cannot, therefore, be financed under the EAGGF Guarantee Section, the EAGF and the EAFRD.

(5)

The amounts that are not recognised as being chargeable to the EAGGF Guarantee Section, the EAGF and the EAFRD should be indicated. Those amounts do not relate to expenditure incurred more than 24 months before the Commission's written notification of the results of the verifications to the Member States.

(6)

As regards the cases covered by this decision, the assessment of the amounts to be excluded on grounds of non-compliance with European Union rules was notified by the Commission to the Member States in a summary report on the subject.

(7)

This Decision is without prejudice to any financial conclusions that the Commission may draw from the judgments of the Court of Justice in cases pending on 1 December 2013 and relating to its content,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The expenditure itemised in the Annex hereto that has been incurred by the Member States' accredited paying agencies and declared under the EAGGF Guarantee Section, under the EAGF or under the EAFRD shall be excluded from European Union financing because it does not comply with European Union rules.

Article 2

This Decision is addressed to the Kingdom of Denmark, the Federal Republic of Germany, the Hellenic Republic, the Kingdom of Spain, the French Republic, the Italian Republic, the Portuguese Republic, Romania, the Republic of Slovenia, the Republic of Finland, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Done at Brussels, 4 April 2014.

DECISION OF THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK

of 24 February 2014

on the organisation of preparatory measures for the collection of granular credit data by the European System of Central Banks

(ECB/2014/6)

(2014/192/EU)

THE GOVERNING COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK,

Having regard to the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank, and in particular Article 5 and Article 46.2 thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2533/98 of 23 November 1998 concerning the collection of statistical information by the European Central Bank (1), and in particular Article 8(5) thereof,

Having regard to the contribution of the General Council,

Whereas:

(1)

Granular credit data comprise individual items of information about credit exposures of credit institutions or other loan-providing financial institutions vis-à-vis borrowers. Non-aggregated data of this type may be collected, subject to adequate confidentiality safeguards, on a borrower-by-borrower or loan-by-loan basis from credit registers operated by the national central banks (NCBs) of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) (hereinafter ‘central credit registers’ or ‘CCRs’), or from other granular data sources, including credit registers, or alternative statistical collections. A number of NCBs that operate CCRs share granular credit data with each other for the purpose of passing such data on to reporting institutions and facilitating a more comprehensive overview of the indebtedness of borrowers (2).

(2)

Article 5 of the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank (hereinafter the ‘Statute of the ESCB’) specifies that, in order to undertake the tasks of the ESCB, the European Central Bank (ECB), assisted by the NCBs of the ESCB, collects the necessary statistical information either from competent national authorities or directly from economic agents. Moreover, Article 8(5) of Regulation (EC) No 2533/98 allows the ECB to decide on the collection and transmission, to the extent and level of detail necessary, within the ESCB of confidential information originally collected for purposes other than those of Article 5 of the Statute of the ESCB, provided that this is necessary for the efficient development or production of statistics or for increasing their quality, and that these statistics are necessary for the performance of the tasks of the ESCB referred to in the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.

(3)

Granular credit data based on CCRs and other available credit data sources are necessary for: (a) the development and production of new ESCB statistics in areas such as statistics on impaired assets, provisioning for impaired assets and revaluation reserves and statistics on loans to non-financial corporations, broken down by the size of the corporations concerned; (b) increasing the quality of existing ESCB statistics in areas such as statistics on credit lines broken down by counterparty sector, on loans to non-financial corporations broken down by economic activity, and on loans backed by real-estate collateral. These new or improved statistics to be produced in the long term are necessary for the performance of Eurosystem tasks including monetary policy analysis and monetary policy operations, risk management, financial stability surveillance and research, as well as the Eurosystem's contribution to the smooth conduct of policies pursued by the competent authorities relating to the prudential supervision of credit institutions and the stability of the financial system.

(4)

A long-term framework for the collection of granular credit data based on harmonised ECB statistical reporting requirements should be set out in an ECB legal instrument to be adopted under Article 5 of the Statute of the ESCB, which should be submitted to the Governing Council in due time so as to ensure that by the end of 2016: (a) national granular credit databases will be operated by all Eurosystem NCBs in accordance with specified minimum standards developed during the preparatory phase, and (b) a common granular credit database shared between the Eurosystem members and comprising input data for all Member States whose currency is the euro will be established on the basis of such national granular credit databases, with the aim of ensuring, in a stepwise manner, the availability of credit statistics necessary for the performance of Eurosystem tasks, including in particular contributing to the smooth conduct of policies pursued by the competent authorities relating to the prudential supervision of credit institutions and the stability of the financial system. This long-term ECB legal instrument should also define the date, no later than the date specified above, from which the collection of granular credit data based on harmonised ECB statistical reporting requirements should commence. Although a broad design of the content of the future granular credit data to be collected under such harmonised ECB statistical reporting requirements is set out in the reference reporting scheme annexed to this Decision, the exact scope and content of the data to be collected under the long-term framework is still to be defined. Preparations for the establishment of this long-term framework will be carried out through preparatory measures implemented under this Decision that have the following aims: (a) definition of a core group of harmonised granular credit data sets that are to be provided to the ECB by the NCBs in the long term, (b) identification and evaluation of relevant user needs concerning the application of granular credit data within the ESCB in the long term, (c) estimation of related costs generated by collection, quality assurance and data sharing procedures, (d) gradual elimination of data gaps related to incompleteness or lack of granular credit databases in some Member States, (e) definition of the appropriate governance and organisational aspects for the operation of the long-term framework, and (f) ensuring better interoperability and data reuse among CCRs, credit registers and other relevant credit databases meeting the quality criteria.

(5)

The Statistics Committee (hereinafter the ‘STC’) of the ESCB should be mandated by the Governing Council to assist it in the implementation of these preparatory measures. The STC should in particular organise the annual transmission from the NCBs to the ECB of available granular credit data as part of the process of ensuring proper alignment of such granular credit data to be collected in the long term with the prospective ESCB user needs. For this purpose, ESCB users not benefiting from the derogation under Article 3(3) of this Decision may be granted access to confidential statistical information derived from any granular credit data transmitted to the ECB until a long-term framework is implemented, in accordance with the relevant confidentiality safeguards.

(6)

Equal treatment of individual NCBs should be the guiding principle underpinning the preparatory measures for the long-term framework. The necessary minimum criteria as regards the scope, the upper and lower bounds of layers or strata across the borrowers' population and the other possible breakdowns, the level of detail of data attributes and the quality of collected granular credit data shall be proposed to the Governing Council for all Eurosystem NCBs in the course of the preparatory phase. Disparities between data sets delivered by individual NCBs will be identified and progressively reduced through adjustments introduced with subsequent data deliveries made under this Decision. At the same time, certain Eurosystem NCBs may require a longer phase-in period in the preparatory phase for developing or obtaining access to comprehensive granular credit databases. These NCBs should, during the preparatory phase, be permitted to benefit from temporary derogations from the obligation to apply specific preparatory measures developed by the STC, provided that the period of each specific derogation is strictly limited to the minimum time necessary for the NCB concerned to achieve during the preparatory phase compliance with the preparatory measures covered by the derogation, and that such period is in any event set in a manner that allows the objectives laid down in Article 1 to be achieved in relation to all Eurosystem NCBs.

(7)

In accordance with the case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union, both the Treaties and the law adopted by the Union on the basis of the Treaties have primacy over the national law of Member States, under the conditions laid down by that case law (3). Accordingly, implementation of this Decision will not result in a breach of provisions of national law imposing specific confidentiality or reciprocity requirements in relation to cross-border sharing of data collected through CCRs.

(8)

It is necessary to set up a procedure to carry out technical amendments to the Annex to this Decision in an effective manner, provided that such amendments neither change the underlying conceptual framework nor affect the reporting burden. NCBs may propose such technical amendments to the Annex through the STC, whose view will be taken into account when following this procedure.

(9)

The provisions of this Decision may be extended to apply to the NCBs of Member States whose currency is not the euro by means of those NCBs entering into cooperation with the Eurosystem central banks on the basis of an ECB recommendation,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

Scope and objectives

This Decision defines preparatory measures which are necessary to establish in a stepwise manner a long-term framework for the collection of granular credit data based on harmonised ECB statistical reporting requirements. This long-term framework shall include by the end of 2016: (a) national granular credit databases operated by all Eurosystem NCBs, and (b) a common granular credit database shared between the Eurosystem members and comprising granular credit data for all Member States whose currency is the euro.

Article 2

Definitions

For the purposes of this Decision:

(1)

‘central credit register’ (CCR) means a credit register operated by an NCB of the ESCB;

(2)

‘credit register’ means a register that collects granular credit data from reporting institutions;

(3)

‘granular credit data’ means information about credit exposures of credit institutions or other loan-providing financial institutions vis-à-vis borrowers, provided on a borrower-by-borrower or a loan-by-loan basis.

Article 3

Organisation of preparatory measures

1.   Preparatory measures to be undertaken in order to achieve the objectives set out in Article 1 shall include:

(a)

identifying relevant user needs and estimating related costs generated by proposals for the collection, quality assurance and data sharing procedures to be applied in the long term;

(b)

defining and improving the granular credit data sets to be collected under the long-term framework, in particular regarding the scope, the bounds of layers or strata in the borrower population and the other possible breakdowns, the level of detail of the data attributes and the quality of granular data collected;

(c)

organising the transmission of granular credit data in the preparatory phase in accordance with Article 4 and setting the quality standards which granular credit data obtained from CCRs or other credit registers need to comply with prior to the commencement of such transmission;

(d)

developing detailed operational arrangements specifying transmission, compilation, storage and use of the granular credit data that are to be tested and fine-tuned in the preparatory phase with a view to their subsequent incorporation in the long-term framework;

(e)

establishing a timetable for specific steps and deliverables to be completed by the individual NCBs and the ECB, including steps to be taken by the NCBs not presently having access to comprehensive granular credit databases, with a view to obtaining such access through development of an own CCR or by other means;

(f)

monitoring the progress achieved in respect of the measures listed in points (a) to (e), and identifying relevant adjustments if needed.

2.   The STC shall, taking into account advice from other relevant ESCB committees as appropriate, prepare the decisions necessary for implementing the preparatory measures set out in paragraph 1 and submit them for adoption to the Governing Council. The STC shall report to the Governing Council on an annual basis on the progress achieved by the ECB and the individual NCBs.

3.   With regard to NCBs which require a longer phase-in period during the preparatory phase for developing or obtaining access to comprehensive granular credit databases, the Governing Council may, during the preparatory phase grant individual temporary derogations from the obligation to apply specific preparatory measures defined under paragraph 1. The period of each individual derogation shall be strictly limited to the minimum time necessary for the NCB concerned to achieve during the preparatory phase compliance with the preparatory measures covered by this derogation, and shall in any event be set in a manner that allows the objectives laid down in Article 1 to be achieved in relation to all Eurosystem NCBs. During each period of derogation the NCB concerned shall report twice a year to the STC on its progress in achieving full compliance with the preparatory measures covered by the derogation. Any rights of access to confidential statistical information derived from granular credit data transmitted to the ECB as part of a specific preparatory measure shall be suspended in relation to any NCBs benefitting from a temporary derogation in relation to this measure. The Governing Council may decide that appropriate further restrictions are to be imposed on individual NCBs benefitting from any derogation under this paragraph.

Article 4

Transmission of granular credit data in the preparatory phase and confidentiality safeguards

1.   To ensure proper alignment of the granular credit data to be collected in the long term with the statistical needs of prospective ESCB users, the STC shall, during the preparatory phase, organise the annual transmission from the NCBs to the ECB of readily available granular credit data, related to 30 June and 31 December, using an adequate level of anonymisation and aggregation concerning the information about the borrowers so as to ensure that individual borrowers cannot be identified. The first transmission shall occur at the end of March 2014, with reference to 30 June and 31 December 2013, and shall be based on the reference reporting scheme set out in the Annex. Any further transmissions shall be organised by the STC on the basis of the reporting scheme which will take account of the existence of readily available granular credit data and their characteristics, and ensure that the data collected are proportionate to the status of the preparatory work completed at the time of transmission. Data on borrowers belonging to institutional sectors other than non-financial corporations may be reported during the preparatory phase on an aggregated basis, provided that the NCB delivers relevant methodological information.

2.   Individual NCBs shall transmit the requested granular credit data on the basis of the CCRs or other available granular credit databases. The NCBs benefitting, pursuant to Article 3(3), from a derogation from preparatory measures under Article 3(1)(c) with respect to specific data transmissions shall include information about their progress in achieving full compliance with the data transmissions requested during the preparatory phase in their reporting to the STC.

3.   Data provided to the ECB pursuant to the first paragraph shall be transmitted in electronic form via secured remote access and stored in a secure area. Access to such data shall be limited to statistical experts included on the list communicated by the STC to the Governing Council prior to initiation of the transmission. The ECB shall include information on the security measures taken in the annual confidentiality report.

Article 5

Use of statistical information derived from granular credit data in the preparatory phase

1.   Data provided to the ECB pursuant to Article 4 shall be used to: (a) define and improve the granular credit data to be collected under the long-term framework and the respective data attributes, and (b) define and produce aggregated statistical information to meet the statistical needs of the ESCB users during the preparatory phase.

2.   In addition to the access and use of aggregated statistical information, users within the ESCB not benefitting from a derogation under Article 3(3) may request permission to access and use disaggregated confidential statistical information derived from granular credit data transmitted pursuant to Article 4, provided that such access to confidential statistical information: (a) serves the objective of defining and improving the granular credit data to be collected under the long-term framework and the respective data attributes, and (b) does not involve direct access to original granular credit data collected by the NCBs or the ECB. Each user request shall be accompanied by a list of individual persons who will have access to the information concerned.

3.   The user requests made under paragraph 2 shall be subject to assessment and approval by the Governing Council in accordance with the procedure adopted by the ECB. The STC shall assist the Governing Council in the evaluation of such requests.

Article 6

Simplified amendment procedure

Taking account of the views of the STC, the Executive Board of the ECB shall be entitled to make technical amendments to the Annex to this Decision, provided that such amendments neither change the underlying conceptual framework nor affect the reporting burden. The Executive Board shall inform the Governing Council of any such amendment without undue delay.

Article 7

Final provisions

1.   This Decision shall take effect on the day of its notification.

2.   By 31 December 2014 the Governing Council shall receive a report analysing: (a) the status of the preparatory measures established by this Decision, and (b) the feasibility of replacing this Decision with an ECB legal instrument setting out harmonised ECB statistical reporting requirements and ensuring the establishment of a common granular credit database shared between the Eurosystem members and comprising granular credit data for all Member States whose currency is the euro, including an assessment of the feasibility of the timeline for the adoption of these measures as laid down in Article 1, in view of the progress achieved.

Official Journal of the European Union

L 104/80


COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION

of 4 April 2014

on the reduction of the presence of cadmium in foodstuffs

(Text with EEA relevance)

(2014/193/EU)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 292 thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Commission Regulation (EC) No 1881/2006 of 19 December 2006 setting maximum levels for certain contaminants in foodstuffs (1) sets maximum levels for cadmium in a range of foodstuffs.

(2)

The Scientific Panel on Contaminants in the Food Chain (Contam Panel) of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) adopted an opinion on cadmium in food on 30 January 2009 (2). In this opinion, EFSA established a new Tolerable Weekly Intake (TWI) of 2,5 μg/kg bodyweight. In its statement on the ‘Re-assessment of the tolerable weekly intake for cadmium established by the Contam Panel in 2009’ (3) EFSA took into account the recent risk assessment carried out by the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) (4) and confirmed the TWI of 2,5 μg/kg bodyweight.

(3)

In the scientific opinion the Contam Panel concluded that the mean dietary exposures in European countries are close to or slightly exceeding the TWI of 2,5 μg/kg bodyweight. Certain subgroups of the population may exceed the TWI by about two-fold. The Contam Panel further concluded that, although adverse effects on kidney function are unlikely to occur for an individual exposed at this level, exposure to cadmium at the population level should be reduced.

(4)

According to the scientific opinion of the Contam Panel, the food groups that contribute to the major part of the dietary cadmium exposure, primarily because of the high consumption, were: cereals and cereals products, vegetables, nuts and pulses, starchy roots or potatoes and meat and meat products. Highest cadmium concentrations were detected in the food commodities seaweed, fish and seafood, chocolate and foods for special dietary uses as well as in fungi, oilseeds and edible offal.

(5)

Maximum levels for cadmium have been established in 2001 in a range of foodstuffs, including cereals, vegetables, meat, fish, seafood, offals and food supplements. Taking into consideration the recent EFSA conclusions, new maximum levels for baby foods and chocolate/cocoa products have been considered and it is expected that these levels will be adopted shortly.

(6)

Furthermore, following the scientific opinions on cadmium of the Contam Panel, the Commission also investigated the possibilities to reduce some of the existing maximum levels for cadmium in foodstuffs that are major contributors to exposure (e.g. cereals, vegetables, potatoes).

(7)

The Commission considers that an immediate reduction of the maximum levels would be difficult to achieve. Cadmium presence in foodstuffs is not uniform, but highly variable depending for instance on the geographical location of the growing area (different levels of natural cadmium presence in soil due to different distribution in the earth crust), on the availability of cadmium from soil (different extent of transfer from the soil to the plants depending on the pH of the soil and other soil components), different plant varieties with different patterns of cadmium accumulation, but also of anthropogenic factors such as agricultural use of sewage sludge, manure or phosphate fertilisers and other factors. Concerning the presence of cadmium in phosphate fertilisers, on which work is ongoing, the Commission is aware of the need to take action in accordance with its risk reduction strategy for cadmium and cadmium oxide adopted in 2008 (5).

(8)

However, some mitigation methods for reduction of cadmium presence in foods already exist but need some time to be fully implemented by farmers and food business operators. In some cases existing methods need to be specifically adapted to the crops and geographical areas for which they are to be applied and to be better communicated and promoted to farmers in order to achieve reductions in cadmium levels in food in the medium/long term. It is therefore appropriate that Member States take the necessary steps to ensure that the already available mitigation methods are communicated and promoted to farmers and started or continued to be implemented with a view to reducing cadmium levels in food. Where necessary, further research and investigations should be carried out to fill any possible gaps in knowledge on mitigation methods.

(9)

The progress of the effects of the measures taken should be regularly monitored and reported to the Commission. Further occurrence data on cadmium should be collected and regularly reported to EFSA to enable the Commission to reassess the situation by 31 December 2018 with a view to deciding about further appropriate measures.

HAS ADOPTED THIS RECOMMENDATION:

(1)

Member States should ensure that available mitigation measures for reduction of cadmium levels in food, in particular in cereals, vegetables and potatoes, are progressively implemented by farmers and food business operators. This includes effective ways of communicating and promoting known mitigation methods to farmers and food business operators.

(2)

Member States should ensure that where further knowledge is needed to identify the appropriate mitigation measures, e.g. for a certain crop or in a specific geographical area, investigations/research is carried out to fill these gaps in knowledge.

(3)

Member States should regularly monitor the progress of the mitigation measures implemented by collecting occurrence data on cadmium levels in food. Member States should ensure that

1.

the analytical results are provided on a regular basis to EFSA for compilation into a single database and that

2.

a report on the progress with the implementation of this recommendation is provided to the European Commission in December 2015 followed by a final report at the latest in February 2018. In these reports, particular attention should be given to those cadmium levels close to or exceeding the maximum levels.

(4)

The sampling and analysis should be performed in accordance with the provisions provided for in Commission Regulation (EC) No 333/2007 of 28 March 2007 laying down methods of sampling and analysis for the official control of the levels of lead, cadmium, mercury, inorganic tin, 3-MCPD and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in foodstuffs (6).
