COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 380/2008

of 18 April 2008

amending Regulation (EC) No 1030/2002 laying down a uniform format for residence permits for third-country nationals

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 63(3)(a) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),

Whereas:

| (1) | The Amsterdam Treaty aims to establish progressively an area of freedom, security and justice and confers the right of initiative on the Commission in order to take the relevant measures on a harmonised immigration policy. |
| --- | --- |

(1)

The Amsterdam Treaty aims to establish progressively an area of freedom, security and justice and confers the right of initiative on the Commission in order to take the relevant measures on a harmonised immigration policy.

| (2) | It is essential that the uniform format for residence permits should contain all the necessary information and meet very high technical standards, in particular as regards safeguards against counterfeiting and falsification. This will contribute to the objective of preventing and fighting against illegal immigration and illegal residence. It must also be suited to use by all the Member States. |

It is essential that the uniform format for residence permits should contain all the necessary information and meet very high technical standards, in particular as regards safeguards against counterfeiting and falsification. This will contribute to the objective of preventing and fighting against illegal immigration and illegal residence. It must also be suited to use by all the Member States.

| (3) | The integration of biometric identifiers is an important step towards the use of new elements, which establish a more reliable link between the holder and the residence permit as an important contribution to ensuring that it is protected against fraudulent use. The specifications set out in the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) document No 9303 Part 3 on Size 1 and 2 machine readable official documents should be taken into account. |

| (4) | Furthermore, the vast majority of Member States apply the principle of one person one document, which enhances security even further. It should be examined whether this principle should be rendered mandatory. |

| (5) | At its meeting in Thessaloniki on 19 and 20 June 2003, the European Council stressed that a coherent approach was needed in the EU on biometric identifiers or biometric data, which would result in harmonised solutions for documents for third country nationals, EU citizens’ passports and information systems. |

(7)

The purpose of this Regulation is solely to set the security features and biometric identifiers to be used by the Member States in a uniform format of residence permit for third-country nationals.

| (8) | This Regulation only lays down specifications that are not secret; these specifications need to be supplemented by further specifications which may remain secret in order to prevent counterfeiting and falsifications and which may not include personal data or references to such data. Powers to adopt such supplementary specifications should be conferred on the Commission, which should be assisted by the Committee established by Article 6 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1683/95 of 29 May 1995 laying down a uniform format for visas (2). |

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 382/2008

of 21 April 2008

on rules of application for import and export licences in the beef and veal sector

(Recast)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in beef and veal (1), and in particular Article 29(2), Article 33(12) and Article 41 thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Commission Regulation (EC) No 1445/95 of 26 June 1995 on rules of application for import and export licences in the beef and veal sector and repealing Regulation (EEC) No 2377/80 (2) has been substantially amended several times (3). Since further amendments are to be made, it should be recast in the interests of clarity. |

Commission Regulation (EC) No 1445/95 of 26 June 1995 on rules of application for import and export licences in the beef and veal sector and repealing Regulation (EEC) No 2377/80 (2) has been substantially amended several times (3). Since further amendments are to be made, it should be recast in the interests of clarity.

| (2) | Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 makes all imports into the Community of the products listed in Article 1(1)(a) of that Regulation subject to presentation of an import licence. Experience has shown the need for close monitoring of the trend of trade in all products of the beef and veal sector of particular importance for the balance of this particularly sensitive market. Accordingly to improve market management import licences should also be required for products of CN codes 1602 50 31 to 1602 50 80 and 1602 90 69. |

It is necessary to monitor imports into the Community of young male animals, in particular calves. Issuing of import licences for those animals should be made conditional on the indication of their country of provenance.

| (4) | Under Article 6(4) of Council Decision 79/542/EEC of 21 December 1976 drawing up a list of third countries or parts of third countries, and laying down animal and public health and veterinary certification conditions, for importation into the Community of certain live animals and their fresh meat (4), the original of the veterinary certificate must accompany bovine animals until they reach the border inspection post. |

| (5) | There are order numbers in the Integrated Tariff of the European Communities (TARIC) that enable identification of the import tariff quotas, the products involved and in certain cases their origin. The Member States should be required to put those numbers on the import licences or extract(s) therefrom and to use them in their notifications to the Commission. |

| (6) | The competent national authority issuing the import licence does not always know the country of origin of the quantities imported under tariff quotas opened for several countries or of the quantities imported subject to CCT duties. Identification of the country of origin in the case of tariff quotas or in the case of non-preferential imports should be made a primary requirement within the meaning of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2220/85 of 22 July 1985 laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of securities for agricultural products (5), and entry of the country of origin for the quotas in question and for non-preferential imports in column 31 of the import licence or extract thereof should therefore be required. |

| (7) | Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 requires presentation of an export licence with advance fixing of the refund in the case of any export operation for which an export refund is claimed. Specific rules of application for that arrangement should be determined, covering in particular submission of applications and the information to be given on applications and licences.

Article 12

1.   Applications for export licences with advance fixing of the refund as referred to in Article 10(1), (2) and (3) may be lodged with the competent authorities from Monday to Friday each week.

Export licences shall be issued on the Wednesday following the week in which the application is lodged, provided that none of the particular measures referred to in paragraphs 2 or 3 of this Article have since been taken by the Commission.

However, licences applied for within the framework of Article 16 of Regulation (EC) No 1291/2000 shall be issued immediately.

By way of derogation from the second subparagraph of this paragraph, the Commission may, in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 43(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999, set a day other than Wednesday for the issuing of export licences when it is not possible to respect this day.

2.   Where the issue of export licences would or might result in the available budgetary amounts being exceeded or in the maximum quantities which may be exported with a refund being exhausted during the period concerned, in view of the limits referred to in Article 33(11) of Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999, or would not allow exports to continue during the remainder of the period, the Commission may:

In the circumstances referred to in point (c) of the first subparagraph, licence applications made during the suspension period shall be invalid.

The measures provided for in the first subparagraph may be implemented or modulated by category of product and by destination or group of destinations.

3.   The measures provided for in paragraph 2 may also be adopted where export licence applications relate to quantities which exceed or might exceed the normal disposable quantities for one destination or group of destinations and issuing the licences requested would entail a risk of speculation, distortion of competition between operators, or disturbance of the trade concerned or the Community market.

4.   If the quantities applied for are refused or reduced the security shall be immediately released for all quantities for which the application has not been accepted.

5.   By way of derogation from paragraph 1, if an acceptance percentage of less than 90 % is set, licences shall be issued no later than the 11th working day following publication of that percentage in the Official Journal of the European Union.

In such cases, notwithstanding Article 10 of this Regulation, the term of validity of the licences shall be limited to five working days from their actual day of issue within the meaning of Article 23(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1291/2000, and box 20 of licence applications and licences shall indicate at least one of the entries listed in Annex VII, Part A, to this Regulation.

Article 13

1.   Quantities exported within the tolerance referred to in Article 8(4) of Regulation (EC) No 1291/2000 shall not confer entitlement to payment of a refund where exportation takes place under a licence as referred to in Article 10(1), (2) and (3) of this Regulation and the licence contains the following entry in box 22:
