COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) 2020/749

of 4 June 2020

amending Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards maximum residue levels for chlorate in or on certain products

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 February 2005 on maximum residue levels of pesticides in or on food and feed of plant and animal origin and amending Council Directive 91/414/EEC (1), and in particular Article 14(1)(a) and Article 16(1)(a) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | According to Commission Decision 2008/865/EC (2) all authorisations for plant protection products containing chlorate have been revoked following the non-inclusion of chlorate in Annex I to Council Directive 91/414/EEC (3). |
| --- | --- |

(1)

According to Commission Decision 2008/865/EC (2) all authorisations for plant protection products containing chlorate have been revoked following the non-inclusion of chlorate in Annex I to Council Directive 91/414/EEC (3).

| (2) | No specific maximum residue levels (MRLs) have been set for chlorate and, as this substance has not been included in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, currently the default MRL of 0,01 mg/kg applies to all food and feed commodities included in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. |
| --- | --- |

(2)

No specific maximum residue levels (MRLs) have been set for chlorate and, as this substance has not been included in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, currently the default MRL of 0,01 mg/kg applies to all food and feed commodities included in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005.

| (3) | Apart from its former use in plant protection products, chlorate is also a substance that is formed as by-product resulting from the use of chlorine disinfectants in food and drinking water processing. These uses lead to the current situation of detectable residues of chlorate in food. |
| --- | --- |

(3)

Apart from its former use in plant protection products, chlorate is also a substance that is formed as by-product resulting from the use of chlorine disinfectants in food and drinking water processing. These uses lead to the current situation of detectable residues of chlorate in food.

| (4) | The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) collected between 2014 and 2018 monitoring data to investigate the presence of residues of chlorate in food and drinking water. Those data indicated that chlorate residues are present at levels that frequently exceed the default MRL of 0,01 mg/kg and that the levels vary depending on the source and the product. It follows from those findings that even if good practices are used, it is currently not possible to achieve levels of chlorate residues compliant with the current MRL of 0,01 mg/kg. |

It follows from those findings that even if good practices are used, it is currently not possible to achieve levels of chlorate residues compliant with the current MRL of 0,01 mg/kg.

| (5) | The Authority adopted a scientific opinion concerning the risks for public health related to the presence of chlorate in food (4). In that opinion the Authority established a tolerable daily intake (TDI) of 3 μg/kg body weight per day and an acute reference dose (ARfD) of 36 μg/kg body weight. The Authority concluded that based on the data collected in 2014 the acute dietary exposure to chlorate did not exceed the ARfD. The mean dietary exposures to chlorate in European countries exceeded the TDI in certain subgroups of the population such as infants and young children with mild to moderate iodine deficiency. |

The mean dietary exposures to chlorate in European countries exceeded the TDI in certain subgroups of the population such as infants and young children with mild to moderate iodine deficiency.

| (6) | In order to bring chlorate levels down and reduce exposure through coordinated action in several relevant and related sectors, a multi-disciplinary action plan was agreed by the Member States in 2017 comprising a set of actions to be taken in parallel, including actions on drinking water, hygiene, and the setting of temporary maximum residue levels for food and feed. |

In order to bring chlorate levels down and reduce exposure through coordinated action in several relevant and related sectors, a multi-disciplinary action plan was agreed by the Member States in 2017 comprising a set of actions to be taken in parallel, including actions on drinking water, hygiene, and the setting of temporary maximum residue levels for food and feed.

| (7) | This Regulation addresses the setting of temporary maximum levels in food. For this purpose a large number of occurrence data was collected between 2014 and 2018, both by Member States and by food business operators. The data shows a general trend towards decreasing levels, suggesting that manufacturing practices have already improved to a certain extent. In the specific case of chlorate, for which residues do not stem from pesticide use but result from use of chlorine-based solutions in food processing and drinking water treatment, maximum levels should be set at levels which are ‘as low as reasonably achievable’ (ALARA principle) by following good manufacturing practices while ensuring at the same time that good hygiene practices remain possible. This approach ensures that food business operators apply measures to prevent and reduce the chlorate levels in food as far as possible in order to protect public health, but also take into account the need for microbiological safety of food. |

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2020/750

of 5 June 2020

establishing a procedure for extending the transition period provided for in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447 for the application of the registered exporter system in some beneficiary countries of the Generalised System of Preferences

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 of the European Parliament and the Council of 9 October 2013 laying down the Union Customs Code (1), and in particular Article 66(a) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447 (2) lays down the procedural rules, referred to in Article 64(1) of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013, to facilitate the establishment in the Union of the preferential origin of goods, including the procedural rules of origin for the purpose of the Generalised Scheme of Preferences (GSP) of the Union. |
| --- | --- |

Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447 (2) lays down the procedural rules, referred to in Article 64(1) of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013, to facilitate the establishment in the Union of the preferential origin of goods, including the procedural rules of origin for the purpose of the Generalised Scheme of Preferences (GSP) of the Union.

| (2) | Article 79(4) of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447 provides that all GSP beneficiary countries are to apply the registered exporter system (the REX system) as of 30 June 2020 at the latest for the certification of GSP preferential originating status. After that date, certificates of origin Form A may no longer be issued by the competent authorities of those countries. |

After that date, certificates of origin Form A may no longer be issued by the competent authorities of those countries.

| (3) | In order to contain the spread of the Coronavirus COVID-19, which on 11 March 2020 was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organisation, a set of unprecedented measures, particularly measures of confinement and social distancing of persons, has been put in place. Those measures have also affected staff in companies and public administrations of GSP beneficiary countries, involved in the management of GSP origin procedures and the establishment and the operation of the REX system, which had a negative impact on regular working procedures, production and trade. |

Those measures have also affected staff in companies and public administrations of GSP beneficiary countries, involved in the management of GSP origin procedures and the establishment and the operation of the REX system, which had a negative impact on regular working procedures, production and trade.

| (4) | Recognising the impact on trading partners, the Commission and the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy have set out plans for a robust and targeted Union response to support partner countries’ efforts in tackling the COVID-19 pandemic in a Joint Communication on the Global EU response to COVID-19 (3). |

| (5) | Because of the COVID-19 pandemic some countries benefitting from the GSP are facing serious difficulties to respect the 30 June 2020 time-limit for the application of the REX system. Beneficiary countries in which the REX system could not be deployed or used due to the pandemic should be able to benefit from an extension of the transition period. |

Beneficiary countries in which the REX system could not be deployed or used due to the pandemic should be able to benefit from an extension of the transition period.

| (6) | Considering that such an extension would be an exceptional measure derogating from the maximum duration of the transition period foreseen in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, the beneficiary country should complement the notification that it needs to benefit from an extension with a due justification of the need to extend the transition period, as well as a work plan detailing how it intends to fully apply the REX system by the end of the envisaged extended transition period. For the same reasons, any extension of the transition period for the application of the REX system should be limited in time. |

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

1.   By way of derogation from Article 79(4) of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, a beneficiary country of the Generalised System of Preferences which experiences, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, difficulties in fulfilling the obligations laid down in Articles 70 and 72 of that Implementing Regulation, or in completing the registration process of its exporters by 30 June 2020, may notify the need for an extension of the transition period for the application of the REX system.

2.   A notification pursuant to paragraph 1 shall be made in writing to the Commission by 15 July 2020 at the latest. It shall provide an explanation as to why an extension of the transition period is necessary due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The notification shall be accompanied by a work plan containing detailed information on how the notifying country intends to fully apply the REX system by 31 December 2020.

3.   Where the notification made pursuant to paragraph 1 is complete, the transition period for the application of the REX system by the relevant beneficiary country shall be extended until 31 December 2020.

4.   The Commission shall publish on its website a list of the beneficiary countries for which the transition period has been extended.

5.   Until 31 December 2020, the competent authorities of a beneficiary country for which the transition period has been extended pursuant to paragraphs 1 to 4 shall continue to issue certificates of origin Form A at the request of exporters who are not yet registered at the time of requesting the certificate.

Article 2

Each beneficiary country for which the transition period has been extended in accordance with Article 1 shall submit to the Commission, by 30 September 2020, a report detailing the progress made in implementing the work plan referred to in Article 1(2), and elaborating on any corrective measures necessary to meet the time-limit of 31 December 2020 for the application of the REX system.

Article 3

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 5 June 2020.
