Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1351/72 (3) of 28 June 1972 on the recognition of producer groups for hops, provides in Article 2 (1) that for purposes of recognition a producer group must consist of at least seven producers;
Whereas since the entry into force of this Regulation Community rules on agriculture have become applicable to Ireland;
Whereas in that country there is only one hop producing region and whereas that region contains less than seven producers;
Whereas because of Ireland's geographical situation it would be difficult for Irish producers to join producer groups in other Member States ; whereas the producers in question, four in number, otherwise fulfil all the conditions required by Regulation (EEC) No 1351/72 for the formation of a recognized producer group;
Whereas in order not to create a situation liable to prejudice these producers in relation to other producers in the Community it is necessary to derogate from the provisions of Article 2 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 1351/72 in favour of Ireland by reducing to three the minimum number of producers required for the formation of a group;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the Opinion of the Management Committee for Hops,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
In Ireland, in derogation from Article 2 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 1351/72, a group of producers may be recognized if it is composed of at least three producers.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3072/95 of 22 December 1995 on the common organization of the market in rice (1), and in particular the second subparagraph of Article 6 (5) thereof,
Whereas Article 6 (5) Regulation (EC) No 3072/95 lays down that where the areas given over to rice in a given year exceed a specific base area, a reduction in the compensatory payment shall be applied to all producers in the base area in question for the same production year;
Whereas Article 6 (1) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 613/97 of 8 April 1997 laying down rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 3072/95 as regards the conditions for granting compensatory payments under the aid scheme for rice producers (2), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1305/97 (3), lays down that any reductions shall be determined on the basis of the information provided in notifications from the Member States, after verification thereof;
Whereas the notifications received from the Member States show that the base area was exceeded by 4,98 % in Spain and by 13,52 % in Greece; whereas the reduction to be applied in accordance with the above provision is therefore five times the overrun recorded for Spain and six times for Greece;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1

COUNCIL DIRECTIVE
of 19 December 1974
on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to bottles used as measuring containers
(75/107/EEC)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty setting up the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 100 thereof;
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission;
Having regard to the Opinion of the European Parliament (1);
Having regard to the Opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (2);
Whereas in several Member States the manufacture and testing of bottles used as measuring containers are the subject of mandatory regulations which differ from one Member State to another, thereby hindering trade in this type of bottle; whereas such provisions must therefore be approximated;
Whereas bottles used as measuring containers must have special metrological characteristics and it is necessary for this purpose to specify the maximum errors permissible in their nominal capacity and to define a reference method for checking such errors;
Whereas it is essential that bottles used as measuring containers should, as laid down in the Directive, bear not only an indication of their nominal capacity but also the information required for filling them,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:
Article 1
This Directive shall apply to containers commonly called bottles, made of glass or any other substance having such rigidity and stability that it offers the same metrological guarantees as glass, when such containers:
1.
are stoppered or designed to be stoppered and are intended for the storage, transport or delivery of liquids,
2.
have a nominal capacity of between 0.05 litre and five litres inclusive,
3.
have metrological characteristics (design characteristics and uniformity of manufacture) such that they can be used as measuring containers, i.e. when they are filled up to a specified level or to a specified percentage of their brim capacity their contents can be measured with sufficient accuracy.
These containers shall be called measuring container bottles.
Article 2
Only measuring container bottles which meet the requirements of this Directive may be marked with the EEC sign provided for in the third subparagraph of paragraph 5 of Annex I.
They shall be subject to metrological control under the conditions specified in the Annexes.
Article 3
Member States may not refuse, prohibit or restrict the marketing and use as measuring containers of bottles which satisfy the requirements and tests laid down in this Directive for reasons concerning their volume, the determination of their volume or the methods by which they have been checked.
Article 4
1. Member States shall put into force the laws, regulations and administrative provisions needed in order to comply with this Directive within 18 months of its notification and shall forthwith inform the Commission thereof.
2. Member States shall ensure that the text of the main provisions of national law which they adopt in the field covered by this Directive are communicated to the Commission.
Article 5
This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

COMMISSION DECISION of 6 March 1995 amending Decision 94/381/EC concerning certain protection measures with regard to bovine spongiform encephalopathy and the feeding of mammalian derived protein (Text with EEA relevance) (95/60/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 90/425/EEC of 26 June 1990 concerning veterinary and zootechnical checks applicable in intra-Community trade in certain live animals and products with a view to the completion of the internal market (1), as last amended by Directive 92/118/EEC (2), and in particular Article 10 (4) thereof,
Whereas cases of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) have been reported in the United Kingdom and some other Member States; whereas scrapie is also known to exist in several Member States;
Whereas the origin of BSE in cattle is considered to be from ruminant protein which contained agents of animal spongiform encephopathies, which had not been sufficiently processed to inactivate the infectious agents; whereas the Scientific Veterinary Committee has stated that it is not possible at present to define processes which can guarantee total inactivation of the agents in the commercial rendering industry, in the light of recent studies;
Whereas, in order to protect ruminant species from the risk that methods for the processing of protein may not completely inactivate these agents, the Commission has adopted Decision 94/381/EC of 27 June 1994 concerning certain protection measures with regard to bovine spongiform encephalopathy and the feeding of mammalian derived protein (3);
Whereas, however, the BSE subgroup of the Scientific Veterinary Committee has evaluated the risk from certain animal products and by-products and has recommended that certain of these may be exempted from the provisions of Decision 94/381/EC;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Veterinary Committee,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The following paragraph is added to Article 1 of Decision 94/381/EC:
'3. The prohibition mentioned in paragraph 1 shall not apply to:
- milk,
- gelatin,
- amino acids produced from hides and skins by a process which involves exposure of the material to a pH of 1 to 2 followed by a pH of 11 followed by heat treatment at 140 °C for 30 minutes at 3 bar,
- dicalcium phosphate derived from defatted bones,
- dried plasma and other blood products.'
