COMMISSION DECISION (EU) 2020/1722

of 16 November 2020

on the Union-wide quantity of allowances to be issued under the EU Emissions Trading System for 2021

(notified under document C(2020)7704)

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 October 2003 establishing a system for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Union and amending Council Directive 96/61/EC (1), and in particular Article 9 and Article 9a thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Commission Decision 2010/634/EU (2) set the Union-wide quantity of allowances to be issued for auctioning or free allocation for 2013, pursuant to Article 9 and Article 9a(1) of Directive 2003/87/EC. To take account of the accession of Croatia to the Union, the extension of the EU Emissions Trading System (‘EU ETS’) to the EEA-EFTA States, and additional information and more accurate data that had become available, Commission Decision 2013/448/EU (3) amended Decision 2010/634/EU accordingly, setting out a Union-wide quantity of 2 084 301 856 allowances for 2013. This amount was to decrease annually by the linear reduction factor of 1,74 % in order to determine the total quantity of allowances to be issued in the calendar years following 2013. |

| (2) | Directive (EU) 2018/410 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4) amended Directive 2003/87/EC to increase the linear reduction factor to 2,2 % starting in 2021, amounting to a reduction of 43 003 515 allowances to be issued in the Union each year. The Union-wide quantity of allowances for 2021 set out in this Decision is reduced by this amount. |

The Union-wide quantity of allowances for 2021 set out in this Decision is reduced by this amount.

| (3) | On 1 February 2020, the Agreement on the withdrawal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community (5) (the ‘Withdrawal Agreement’) entered into force. Pursuant to Article 127 of the Withdrawal Agreement, Directive 2003/87/EC applies to and in the United Kingdom until 31 December 2020, when the transition period established in Article 126 of the Withdrawal Agreement will end. In addition, as from the end of the transition period, the Protocol to the Withdrawal Agreement on Ireland/Northern Ireland applies. Pursuant to Article 9 and Annex 4 of the Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland, Directive 2003/87/EC continues to apply to and in the United Kingdom in respect of the generation of electricity in Northern Ireland. As a result, the emissions from electricity generation in Northern Ireland remain subject to the ETS Directive after the end of the transition period. |

On 1 February 2020, the Agreement on the withdrawal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community (5) (the ‘Withdrawal Agreement’) entered into force. Pursuant to Article 127 of the Withdrawal Agreement, Directive 2003/87/EC applies to and in the United Kingdom until 31 December 2020, when the transition period established in Article 126 of the Withdrawal Agreement will end.

Pursuant to Article 9 and Annex 4 of the Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland, Directive 2003/87/EC continues to apply to and in the United Kingdom in respect of the generation of electricity in Northern Ireland. As a result, the emissions from electricity generation in Northern Ireland remain subject to the ETS Directive after the end of the transition period.

| (4) | The Union-wide quantity of allowances for 2021 should therefore be calculated on the basis of the average annual quantity of allowances issued by the current Member States in accordance with their respective national allocation plans during the years 2008 to 2012 (6), and the average annual quantity of allowances for the period from 2008 to 2012 allocated as a consequence of Northern Irish installations generating electricity. Since a concerned installation in Northern Ireland produced both electricity and heat during the reference period, the average annual quantity of allowances allocated as a consequence of the generation of electricity by this installation is determined by deducting emissions from heat production, using the heat benchmark used to determine the number of allowances allocated for free. |

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION (EU) 2020/1723

of 16 November 2020

on measures to prevent the introduction into the Union of the foot-and-mouth disease virus from Algeria, Egypt, Israel, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Palestine, Syria, Tunisia and Turkey

(notified under document C(2020) 7661)

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Council Directive 91/496/EEC of 15 July 1991 laying down the principles governing the organisation of veterinary checks on animals entering the Community from third countries and amending Directives 89/662/EEC, 90/425/EEC and 90/675/EEC (1), and in particular Article 18(6) thereof,

Having regard to Council Directive 97/78/EC of 18 December 1997 laying down the principles governing the organisation of veterinary checks on products entering the Community from third countries (2), and in particular Article 22(6) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Foot-and-mouth disease is one of the most contagious diseases of cattle, sheep, goats and pigs. The virus causing the disease has the potential for rapid spread, notably through products obtained from infected animals and contaminated objects including means of transport like livestock vehicles or vessels. The virus can also persist in a contaminated environment outside the host animal for several weeks depending on the temperature. Accordingly, veterinary checks should be carried out on means of transport upon their return to the Union from certain third countries after such transport, in order to reduce the risk of the introduction of the foot-and-mouth disease virus into the Union. |

| (2) | Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2017/675 (3), as amended by Commission Implementing Decisions (EU) 2017/887 (4), (EU) 2018/489 (5) and (EU) 2019/242 (6), was adopted following outbreaks of foot-and-mouth disease in Algeria, Libya, Morocco and Tunisia and established protection measures at Union level which took into account the survival of the foot-and-mouth disease virus in the environment and potential transmission routes of that virus. Those measures provided for appropriate cleansing and disinfection of livestock vehicles and vessels from those third countries entering the Union territory either directly or after transiting through other third countries, as this is the most appropriate way to reduce the risk of rapid virus transmission over large distances. However, Implementing Decision (EU) 2017/675 expired on 31 December 2019. |

| (4) | Algeria, Egypt, Israel (7), Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Palestine (8), Syria, Tunisia and the Anatolian part of Turkey are not free of foot-and-mouth disease, and possible virus circulation in this area constitutes a non-negligible risk to the susceptible livestock population of the Union. |
