Detailed rules concerning the information and publicity measures for the public and information measures for applicants and beneficiaries are laid down in Annex V to Regulation (EU) No 508/2014.

(2)

In order to ensure a harmonised visual identity for information and communication measures for operations in the area of Union cohesion policy including operations financed under the EMFF, the instructions for creating the Union emblem and a definition of the standard colours should be established, as well as technical characteristics for displaying the Union emblem and the reference to the Fund or Funds supporting the operation,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Acknowledgment of support from the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund

The Member State or the managing authority shall be responsible for ensuring that all information and publicity measures aimed at the beneficiaries, potential beneficiaries and the public acknowledge support from the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund to the relevant operation by displaying:

ANNEX

Graphic standards for creating the Union emblem and the definition of the standard colours

For full details and guidance see:

http://ec.europa.eu/dgs/communication/services/visual_identity/pdf/use-emblem_en.pdf

SYMBOLIC DESCRIPTION

Against a background of blue sky, 12 golden stars form a circle representing the union of the peoples of Europe. The number of stars is fixed, 12 being the symbol of perfection and unity.

HERALDIC DESCRIPTION

On an azure field a circle of 12 golden mullets, their points not touching.

GEOMETRIC DESCRIPTION

The emblem has the form of a blue rectangular flag of which the fly is one and a half times the length of the hoist. Twelve gold stars situated at equal intervals form an invisible circle whose centre is the point of intersection of the diagonals of the rectangle. The radius of the circle is equal to one-third of the height of the hoist. Each of the stars has five points, which are situated on the circumference of an invisible circle whose radius is equal to 1/18th of the height of the hoist. All the stars are upright, i.e. with one point vertical and two points in a straight line at right angles to the mast. The circle is arranged so that the stars appear in the position of the hours on the face of a clock. Their number is invariable.

REGULATION COLOURS

The emblem is in the following colours:

—	PANTONE REFLEX BLUE for the surface of the rectangle;

—	PANTONE YELLOW for the stars.

FOUR-COLOUR PROCESS

If the four-colour process is used, recreate the two standard colours by using the four colours of the four-colour process.

PANTONE YELLOW is obtained by using 100 % ‘Process Yellow’.

PANTONE REFLEX BLUE is obtained by mixing 100 % ‘Process Cyan’ and 80 % ‘Process Magenta’.

INTERNET

PANTONE REFLEX BLUE corresponds to the web-palette colour RGB: 0/51/153 (hexadecimal: 003399) and PANTONE YELLOW corresponds to the web-palette colour RGB: 255/204/0 (hexadecimal: FFCC00).

MONOCHROME REPRODUCTION PROCESS

Using black, outline the rectangle in black and print the stars in black on white.

Using blue (Reflex Blue), use 100 % with the stars reproduced in negative white.

REPRODUCTION ON A COLOURED BACKGROUND

If there is no alternative to a coloured background, put a white border around the rectangle, the width of the border being 1/25th of the height of the rectangle

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 508/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 May 2014 on the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund and repealing Council Regulations (EC) No 2328/2003, (EC) No 861/2006, (EC) No 1198/2006 and (EC) No 791/2007 and Regulation (EU) No 1255/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council (1), and in particular Articles 18(3), 72(3), 98(2), and 115(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

In order to ensure uniform conditions for implementing Regulation (EU) No 508/2014, it is necessary to adopt provisions setting out:

—	the model for the presentation of operational programmes concerning measures to be co-financed by the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund (EMFF),

—	the structure of plans for the compensation of additional costs incurred by operators in the fishing, farming, processing and marketing of certain fishery and aquaculture products from the outermost regions referred to in Article 349 TFEU (compensation plans),

—	the model for the transmission by Member States of financial data relating to the forecast of the amount for which they expect to submit payment applications,

—	the elements to be contained in reports on the ex ante evaluation of operational programmes, and

—	the minimum requirements for plans concerning the evaluation of operational programmes during the programming period.

(2)

Those provisions are closely linked since they deal with different aspects of the content and presentation of the operational programmes and compensation plans to be submitted by Member States in the framework of the EMFF. In order to ensure the necessary coherence between those provisions, which should enter into force at the same time, and to facilitate their application by the managing authority, it is desirable to include those provisions in this Regulation.

(3)	The model for operational programmes should harmonise the presentation of data in each section of the operational programme. This is necessary to ensure that data are consistent, comparable and, where necessary, that they can be aggregated.

(4)

The model for operational programmes will form the basis for the development of the electronic data exchange system referred to in Article 74(4) of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) as regards operational programmes. That model should therefore establish the manner in which data on operational programmes will be entered into the system for electronic data exchange. However, it should not affect the final presentation of operational programmes, including the layout of text and tables, since the electronic data exchange system is to allow for different structuring and presentation of the data that has been entered into this system.

(5)

The model for the presentation of operational programmes should reflect the content of the operational programme set out in Article 18 of Regulation (EU) No 508/2014 and Article 27 of Regulation (EC) No 1303/2013. In order to ensure consistent conditions for the entry of data, the model should establish the technical specifications of each field in the electronic data exchange system. In addition to the structured data, the model should provide for the option to submit unstructured information in the form of compulsory or non-compulsory annexes. For such annexes it is not necessary to establish technical specifications.

(6)

Article 72 of Regulation (EU) No 508/2014 provides that the Member States concerned submit to the Commission a plan for the compensation of the additional costs incurred by operators in the fishing, farming, processing and marketing of certain fishery and aquaculture products from the outermost regions referred to in Article 349 TFEU.

(7)	Under Article 73 of Regulation (EU) No 508/2014, those compensation plans should also include information on State aid granted by the Member States in the form of additional funding for the implementation of the compensation plans.

(8)	The structure of the compensation plan should ensure consistency and quality of the information, a minimum level of detail and a standardised format. It should furthermore allow for comparability among the regions concerned as well as between years of implementation.

(9)	The structure of the compensation plan should include the breakdown by outermost region of the list of eligible fishery and aquaculture products and the type of operators referred to in Article 70 of Regulation (EU) No 508/2014.

(10)	The structure of the compensation plan should also include the level of compensation calculated in accordance with Article 71 of Regulation (EU) No 508/2014..

(11)	Article 98 of Regulation (EU) No 508/2014 provides that Member States transmit to the Commission a forecast of the amount for which they expect to submit payment applications for the current and for the subsequent financial year.

(12)

The model to be used by Member States when submitting that forecast should ensure that uniform information is available to the Commission in a timely manner, in order to allow for the safeguard the Union's financial interests, to provide the means for an effective programme implementation and to facilitate financial management.

(13)

Pursuant to Article 55 of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013, Member States are required to carry out ex ante evaluations in order to improve the quality of the design of each programme. Article 55(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 requires that those ex ante evaluations be submitted to the Commission at the same time as the programme, together with an executive summary. The elements to be contained in the ex ante evaluation reports pursuant to Article 115(1) of Regulation (EU) No 508/2014 should allow the necessary harmonisation of the data to allow the Commission to undertake the synthesis of the ex ante reports at Union level required under Article 118 of Regulation (EU) No 508/2014.

(14)

Pursuant to Article 56 of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013, a plan for the evaluation of the operational programme during the programming period is to be drawn up by the managing authority. Article 18(1)(j) of Regulation (EU) No 508/2014 requires that the evaluation plan be included in the operational programmes. The minimum requirements for the evaluation plan should enable the Commission to verify that the evaluation activities and resources foreseen in the plan are realistic and will allow the Member States to comply with the evaluation requirements contained in Article 54(1) and (2) and Article 56(2) and (3) of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013.

(15)	In order to allow for the prompt application of the measures provided for in this Regulation, this Regulation should enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

(16)	The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund,

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 772/2014

of 14 July 2014

laying down the rules on intensity of public aid to be applied to the total eligible expenditure of certain operations financed under the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Whereas:

(1)	Regulation (EU) No 508/2014 lays down in Article 95(1) general rules in relation to the intensity of public aid to be applied to the total eligible expenditure of an operation financed under the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund (‘EMFF’).

(2)

By way of derogation, Article 95(4) provides for additional percentage points of public aid intensity applicable to specific types of operations which are set out in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 508/2014. At the same time, in order not to jeopardise the sustainability of the reform of Common Fisheries Policy (‘CFP’), Articles 94(3)(c) and Article 69(2) of Regulation (EU) No 508/2014 limit the EMFF support to certain types of operations by imposing a reduced co-financing rate. This logic is reflected also in the different levels of additional percentage points of aid intensity listed in Annex I of Regulation (EU) No 508/2014. The compliance with certain conditions of Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 508/2014 may therefore lead to an increase of percentage points of public aid intensity or has to lead to a decrease of percentage points of the public aid intensity.

(3)

It is therefore necessary to ensure that the accumulation of additional percentage points of aid intensity in case of compliance with several conditions set out in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 508/2014 in relation to one operation does not jeopardise the CFP goals and does not lead to the overcompensation or an excessive distortion of market rules in the fisheries and aquaculture sectors.

(4)

Therefore, where an operation fulfils the conditions laid down in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 508/2014 allowing for additional increase of percentage points, Members States may apply increased public aid intensity. However, in case of compliance with more than one condition of Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 508/2014 allowing for several increases in percentage points in relation to one operation, the possible increase should be limited to the highest increase. In case of compliance with more than one condition of Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 508/2014 imposing decreases in percentage points in relation to one operation, the decrease should be limited to the highest decrease.

(5)

Finally, in order to comply with an obligation to reduce the percentage points for certain types of operations set out in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 508/2014, where an operation can benefit from one or several increases and decreases of percentage points at the same time due to the compliance with several criteria in accordance with Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 508/2014, the possible increases should be disregarded and only the highest decrease should be applied.

(6)	In order to allow for the prompt application of the measures provided for in this Regulation, this Regulation should enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

(7)	The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Specific intensity of public aid

Where several conditions set out in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 508/2014 are fulfilled in relation to one operation, the different additional percentage increases and decreases of public aid intensity provided for in that Annex shall apply as follows:

(a)	if several increases in percentage points are applicable pursuant to Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 508/2014, only the highest of those increases may apply;

(b)	if several decreases in percentage points are applicable pursuant to Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 508/2014, only the highest of those decreases shall apply;

(c)	if an operation can benefit from one or several additional increases of percentage points and at the same time one or several decreases of percentage points are applicable as referred to in Annex I of Regulation (EU) No 508/2014, only the highest decrease shall apply.

Article 2

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

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

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

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (1),

(2)

The standard import value is calculated each working day, in accordance with Article 136(1) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 543/2011, taking into account variable daily data. Therefore this Regulation should enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The standard import values referred to in Article 136 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 543/2011 are fixed in the Annex to this Regulation.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION

of 14 July 2014

on authorising the placing on the market of oil from the micro-algae Schizochytrium sp. as a novel food ingredient under Regulation (EC) No 258/97 of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Decisions 2003/427/EC and 2009/778/EC

(notified under document C(2014) 4670)

(Only the English text is authentic)

(2014/463/EU)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

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)

The specification of oil from micro-algae Schizochytrium sp. has been laid down and its placing on the market has been authorised in several foods at certain maximum use levels by Commission Decision 2003/427/EC (2). The first extension of uses of oil from micro-algae Schizochytrium sp. has been granted by Commission Decision 2009/778/EC (3).

(2)

On 16 January 2013, the company DSM Nutritional Products made a request to the competent authorities of the United Kingdom for extension of uses of oil from micro-algae Schizochytrium sp. as a novel food ingredient. DSM Nutritional Products has acquired company Martek Biosciences, who was the addressee of the previous decisions, by contract dated 30 June 2012.

(3)	On 29 April 2013, the competent food assessment body of the United Kingdom issued its initial assessment report. In that report it came to the conclusion that the extension of uses of this algal oil meets the criteria for novel food set out in Article 3(1) of Regulation (EC) No 258/97.

(4)	On 9 July 2013, the Commission forwarded the initial assessment report to the other Member States.

(5)

Reasoned objections were raised within the 60-day period laid down in the first subparagraph of Article 6(4) of Regulation (EC) No 258/97. In particular, objections that concerned elevated intake levels of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) were raised. In accordance with Article 7(1) of Regulation (EC) No 258/97 a Commission Implementing Decision should be made that takes into account the objections raised. The applicant consequently modified the request concerning the maximum amount of DHA in food supplements. This change and additional explanations provided by the applicant alleviated the concerns to the satisfaction of Member States and the Commission.

(6)

Directive 2002/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (4) lays down requirements on food supplements. Regulation (EC) No 1925/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council (5) lays down requirements on the addition of vitamins and minerals and of certain other substances to foods. Directive 2009/39/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (6) lays down requirements on foodstuffs intended for particular nutritional uses. Commission Directive 96/8/EC (7) lays down requirements on foods intended for use in energy-restricted diets for weight reduction. The use of oil from the micro-algae Schizochytrium sp. should be authorised without prejudice to the requirements of those legislations.

(7)	For reasons of legal clarity Decisions 2003/427/EC and 2009/778/EC should be repealed and replaced by this Decision.

(8)	Notifications of the placing on the market of an ingredient substantially equivalent to the algal oil as authorised by Decisions 2003/427/EC and 2009/778/EC, which have been submitted to the Commission in accordance with Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 258/97 remain valid.

(9)	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

Oil from the micro-algae Schizochytrium sp. as specified in Annex I may be placed on the market in the Union as a novel food ingredient for the uses defined and at the maximum levels established in the Annex II without prejudice to the provisions of Directive 2002/46/EC, Regulation (EC) No 1925/2006, Directive 2009/39/EC and Directive 96/8/EC.

Article 2

The designation of oil from the micro-algae Schizochytrium sp. authorised by this Decision on the labelling of the foodstuffs containing it shall be ‘oil from the micro-algae Schizochytrium sp.’.

Article 3

Decisions 2003/427/EC and 2009/778/EC are hereby repealed.

Article 4

This Decision is addressed to DSM Nutritional Products, 6480 Dobbin Road, Columbia, MD 21045, USA.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION

of 15 July 2014

identifying the priorities of the Union for enforcement and control policy in the framework of the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund

(2014/464/EU)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

After consulting the Committee on the European Maritime Fisheries Fund,

Whereas:

(1)	the priorities of the Union for enforcement and control policy need to be defined in order to enable the preparation by the Member States of the operational programmes relating to measures financed in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 508/2014.

(2)	The Union support should give priority to the most effective actions in order to improve efficiency in control activities, taking into account the performance of Member States in implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 1005/2008 (2) and Council Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 (3).

(3)

the priorities of the Union for enforcement and control policy should include:

—	implementation of action plans established in accordance with Article 102(4) of the Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 for the removal of shortcomings in the control system of a Member State,

—

implementation of specific actions for the fulfilment of certain ex ante conditionalities set out in Annex IV to Regulation (EU) No 508/2014, as provided for by Article 19(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4). Pursuant to Article 19(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013, where the applicable ex ante conditionalities are not fulfilled, the programme shall contain a description of the action to be taken, including the measures to be financed,

—

implementation of data validation systems as provided for in Article 109 of the Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009, and in particular projects aiming at establishing interoperability between Member States' respective systems, as a complete and reliable catch and effort reporting system is a cornerstone in the management of the Union fisheries resources,

—

enforcement and control of the obligation to land all catches as provided for in Article 15 of Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (5). This new obligation is a very important addition to the new Common Fishery Policy made in order to contribute to the sustainability of the exploitation of fisheries stocks. The implementation of this new obligation will create adaptations in Member States' control system which will include new expenditures,

—	enforcement and control of the catch certification scheme for the importation and exportation of fishery products as provided for in Chapter III of Regulation (EC) No 1005/2008; The implementation of the catch certification scheme is the cornerstone of the fight against the IUU activity,

—

effective actions aiming at enforcing fleet capacity limitations. In order to ensure the balance between the fishing opportunities and the fishing capacity, the Member States have to ensure the respect of the capacity limitation and they should implement projects aiming at certification, verification and measurement of engine power requiring funding,

—

implementation of the Specific Control and Inspection Programmes (SCIPs) or of control coordination in relation to a fishery or an area not covered by a SCIP, pursuant to Article 95(4) of the Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 and Article 15 of Council Regulation (EC) No 768/2005 (6). These types of action contribute to the development of the culture of compliance, the reinforcement of the cooperation between the Member States and create synergy between the different control tools,

—

enforcement and control of traceability requirements as set out in Article 58 of the Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 and Article 67(6) of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 404/2011 (7). Article 58 of the Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 requires that all lots of fisheries and aquaculture products be traceable at all stages of production, processing and distribution, from catching or harvesting to retail stage. Article 67(6) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 404/2011 requires operators to affix the information on fisheries and aquaculture products referred to in Article 58(5) of the Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 by way of an identification tool such as a code, barcode, electronic chip or a similar device or marking system; that requirement applies from 1 January 2013, to products from fisheries subject to a multiannual plan, and as from 1 January 2015, to other fisheries and aquaculture products. Enforcement and control of traceability requirements should be a Union priority. The implementation of the traceability system is the cornerstone of the control fisheries policy in order to ensure the transparency of the origin of the fisheries products.

(4)	The Union priorities should be applied in a flexible manner depending upon the strengths and weaknesses of the enforcement and control policy in each Member State. If a Member State has already addressed certain priorities, that Member State should in principle address other priorities.

(5)	Pursuant to Article 20(2) of Regulation (EU) No 508/2014, the priorities of the Union for enforcement and control policy may be amended every two years by the way of implementing acts in order to adapt them to the evolving needs of control,

(6)	In order to allow for the prompt application of the measures provided for in this Decision, this Decision should enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The priorities of the Union for enforcement and control policy, as referred to in Article 17(3) of Regulation (EU) No 508/2014, shall be the following:

(c)	implementation of data validation systems referred to in Article 109 of Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 and in particular the implementation of projects using common standard formats or enhancing interoperability between Member States' systems;

(d)	control and enforcement of the obligation to land all catches as provide for in Article 15 of Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013, including adaptations in Member States' control systems related to the implementation of that obligation;

(e)	control and enforcement of the catch certificate scheme provided for in Chapter III of Regulation (EC) No 1005/2008, and

(f)	implementation of projects aiming at certification, verification and measurement of engine power;
