THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Council Directive 91/414/EEC of 15 July 1991 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (1), and in particular Article 6(1) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | In accordance with Article 6(2) of Directive 91/414/EEC the United Kingdom received on 29 July 2002 an application from Dow AgroScience for the inclusion of the active substance sulfuryl fluoride in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC. Commission Decision 2004/131/EC (2) confirmed that the dossier was ‘complete’ in the sense that it could be considered as satisfying, in principle, the data and information requirements of Annexes II and III to Directive 91/414/EEC. |

(1)

In accordance with Article 6(2) of Directive 91/414/EEC the United Kingdom received on 29 July 2002 an application from Dow AgroScience for the inclusion of the active substance sulfuryl fluoride in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC. Commission Decision 2004/131/EC (2) confirmed that the dossier was ‘complete’ in the sense that it could be considered as satisfying, in principle, the data and information requirements of Annexes II and III to Directive 91/414/EEC.

| (2) | For that active substance, the effects on human health and the environment have been assessed, in accordance with the provisions of Article 6(2) and (4) of Directive 91/414/EEC, for the uses proposed by the applicant. The rapporteur Member State submitted a draft assessment report on 29 October 2004. |

The rapporteur Member State submitted a draft assessment report on 29 October 2004.

| (3) | The assessment report was peer reviewed by the Member States and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and presented to the Commission on 17 December 2009 (3). The draft review report was reviewed by the Member States and the Commission within the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health and was finalised on 12 March 2010 in the format of the Commission review report for sulfuryl fluoride. |

(3)

The assessment report was peer reviewed by the Member States and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and presented to the Commission on 17 December 2009 (3). The draft review report was reviewed by the Member States and the Commission within the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health and was finalised on 12 March 2010 in the format of the Commission review report for sulfuryl fluoride.

| (4) | It has appeared from the various examinations made that plant protection products containing sulfuryl fluoride may be expected to satisfy, in general, the requirements laid down in Article 5(1)(a) and (b) and Article 5(3) of Directive 91/414/EEC, in particular with regard to the uses which were examined and detailed in the Commission review report. It is therefore appropriate to include sulfuryl fluoride in Annex I to that Directive, in order to ensure that in all Member States the authorisations of plant protection products containing this active substance may be granted in accordance with the provisions of that Directive. |

It is therefore appropriate to include sulfuryl fluoride in Annex I to that Directive, in order to ensure that in all Member States the authorisations of plant protection products containing this active substance may be granted in accordance with the provisions of that Directive.

| (5) | Without prejudice to that conclusion, it is appropriate to obtain further information on certain specific points. Article 6(1) of Directive 91/414/EEC provides that the inclusion of a substance in Annex I may be subject to conditions. It is appropriate, as regards sulfuryl fluoride, to require that the notifier submit further information on milling processing conditions necessary to ensure that residues of fluoride ion in cereals do not exceed the natural background levels, on tropospheric concentrations of sulfuryl fluoride and on estimates of sulfuryl fluoride atmospheric lifetime. |

Article 3

1.   Member States shall in accordance with Directive 91/414/EEC, where necessary, amend or withdraw existing authorisations for plant protection products containing sulfuryl fluoride as active substance by 28 February 2011.

Point 2.2 of the Code specifies that the users (credit institutions clients of the FIBEN — ‘Fichier Bancaire des Entreprises’) of the credit ratings are the ones paying for the service in accordance to a published rate.

| (6) | Second, credit ratings may not be disclosed to the public. Point 1.5 of the Code provides that the credit ratings are not to be made public. The access is legally restricted to certain categories of actors listed in the Code and which have to be identified by the Banque of France before having access to the credit rating. |

The access is legally restricted to certain categories of actors listed in the Code and which have to be identified by the Banque of France before having access to the credit rating.

| (7) | Third, credit ratings must be issued in accordance with the principles, standards and procedures which ensure the adequate integrity and independence of credit rating activities as provided for by Regulation (EC) No 1060/2009. The provisions of the ‘Code monétaire et financier’, in particular Articles L.142-9, and L.164-2 ensure that analysts and agents working in the Banque de France are bound by the professional secrecy principle and by rules on conflicts of interest included in the professional ethics rules and in the financial ethical code of the Banque de France approved by the Minister of ‘l’Economie, des Finances et de l’Industrie’. Moreover, the staff regulations of the Banque de France contain provisions aiming explicitly to prevent the agents from being or from remaining in situations of conflict of interests. The Banque de France is subject to internal control mechanisms, being exercised by an Independent Ethics Officer and his staff in charge of checking the application of the ethical code or through the collegial structure which is fully incorporated into the organisation of the management of the Banque de France, which constitute an effective means to enforce the compliance with these rules on integrity and independence. As these requirements are embedded in law, sanctions can be imposed in case of non-compliance. In addition, the Code establishes the necessary rules on procedures and sets the appropriate standards to ensure: (i) the integrity and quality of the credit rating process (including the formalisation of the decisional circuit, traceability of the decisions and quality control process), (ii) the relevant transparency and communication procedures (including rules of access to credit ratings, publication of the methods and evolution of the credit rating activities) and (iii) the measures to prevent any conflict of interest (including the due diligence to be observed by the analysts, the functioning of the national and regional rating committees). |

| (8) | Fourth, credit ratings must not relate to financial instruments issued by the respective central banks’ Member States. Point 1.1 of the Code provides that the credit ratings produced by the Banque de France relate to non-financial firms. They relate to firms established in the French metropolitan territory and in the French ‘départements d’Outre-Mer’ covered by the ‘Institut d’émission des départements d’outre-mer’ (IEDOM). The Contract provides that the credit ratings produced by the Banque de France relate to firms. Therefore, the Banque de France does not issue credit ratings related to the public offering of financial instruments issued by the State of France, nor by other Member State. |
