REPORT FROM THE COMMISSION TO THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL
on the exercise of the power to adopt delegated acts conferred on the Commission under Regulation (EC) No 1165/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 November 2008 concerning livestock and meat statistics and repealing Council Directives 93/23/EEC, 93/24/EEC and 93/25/EEC
1.Background
Regulation (EC) No 1165/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning livestock and meat statistics 1 was adopted on 19 November 2008. It was amended by Regulation (EU) No 1350/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2013 amending certain legislative acts in the field of agricultural and fishery statistics 2 to align implementing powers with the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.
Article 19 of Regulation (EC) No 1165/2008 confers on the Commission the power to adopt delegated acts. According to Article 18 of Regulation (EC) No 1165/2008 the power of delegation can be used to amend Annexes I, II, IV and V. These annexes set out the definitions and categories for statistics on livestock and slaughtering, and for meat production forecasts.
Under Article 19(2), the power to adopt delegated acts is conferred for a period of 5 years from 10 January 2014. This power was tacitly renewed until 10 January 2024 in 2019 3 .
Regulation (EC) No 1165/2008 will be repealed by Regulation (EU) 2022/2379 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 November 2022 on statistics on agricultural input and output, amending Commission Regulation (EC) No 617/2008 and repealing Regulations (EC) No 1165/2008, (EC) No 543/2009 and (EC) No 1185/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Council Directive 96/16/EC 4 as of 1 January 2025.
The Commission is obliged to draw up a report on the delegation of power no later than 9 months before the end of the 5-year period. This report fulfils that obligation.
2.Commission exercise of delegated powers under Regulation (EC) No 1165/2008
The Commission has not yet exercised the power to adopt delegated acts conferred on it by Regulation (EC) No 1165/2008.
There have been no changes to the definitions set out in Annexes I, II, IV and V of Regulation (EC) No 1165/2008 during the period in question. The changes in the technological and economic conditions were so minor that no amendment to the list of categories or adaptation of national and European statistical processes was necessary.
3.Conclusions
The Commission has not yet exercised the power to adopt delegated acts conferred on it by Regulation (EC) No 1165/2008.
Furthermore, the Commission does not envisage exercising the delegated powers conferred on it, as Regulation (EC) No 1165/2008 will be repealed by Regulation (EU) No 2022/2379 as of 1 January 2025.
