    Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

    Having regard to Council Directive 1999/105/EC of 22 December 1999 on the marketing of forest reproductive material (1), and in particular Article 19(3) thereof,

    Commission Decision 2005/942/EC (2) authorises Member States to take decisions under Directive 1999/105/EC on assurances afforded in respect of forest reproductive material of specified species produced in specified third countries.

    (2)

    The scope of the current regime should be extended in so far as the necessary assurances are afforded.

Decision 2005/942/EC should be therefore amended accordingly.
