COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 91/2013

of 31 January 2013

laying down specific conditions applicable to the import of groundnuts from Ghana and India, okra and curry leaves from India and watermelon seeds from Nigeria and amending Regulations (EC) No 669/2009 and (EC) No 1152/2009

(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 178/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 28 January 2002 laying down the general principles and requirements of food law, establishing the European Food Safety Authority and laying down procedures in matters of food safety (1), and in particular Article 53(1)(b)(ii) thereof,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 882/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 on official controls performed to ensure the verification of compliance with feed and food law, animal health and animal welfare rules (2), and in particular Article 15(5) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Article 53 of Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 provides for the possibility to adopt appropriate Union emergency measures for feed and food imported from a third country in order to protect human health, animal health and the environment, where the risk cannot be contained satisfactorily by means of measures taken by the Member States individually. |

Article 53 of Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 provides for the possibility to adopt appropriate Union emergency measures for feed and food imported from a third country in order to protect human health, animal health and the environment, where the risk cannot be contained satisfactorily by means of measures taken by the Member States individually.

| (2) | Commission Regulation (EC) No 669/2009 of 24 July 2009 implementing Regulation (EC) No 882/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the increased level of official controls on imports of certain feed and food of non-animal origin and amending Decision 2006/504/EC (3), establishes an increased level of official controls on imports of certain feed and food of non-animal origin. |
| --- | --- |

(2)

Commission Regulation (EC) No 669/2009 of 24 July 2009 implementing Regulation (EC) No 882/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the increased level of official controls on imports of certain feed and food of non-animal origin and amending Decision 2006/504/EC (3), establishes an increased level of official controls on imports of certain feed and food of non-animal origin.

| (3) | Amongst other, an increased frequency of official controls on import has been established for more than two years on groundnuts from India as regards aflatoxins, curry leaves from India as regards pesticide residues, groundnuts from Ghana as regards aflatoxins and watermelon seeds from Nigeria as regards aflatoxins and for nearly two years on okras from India as regards pesticide residues. |
| --- | --- |

(3)

Amongst other, an increased frequency of official controls on import has been established for more than two years on groundnuts from India as regards aflatoxins, curry leaves from India as regards pesticide residues, groundnuts from Ghana as regards aflatoxins and watermelon seeds from Nigeria as regards aflatoxins and for nearly two years on okras from India as regards pesticide residues.

| (4) | The results from the of increased frequency of controls show a continuous high frequency of non-compliance with maximum levels of aflatoxins and maximum residue levels of pesticide residues established in Union legislation and several times very high levels were observed. These results provide evidence that the import of these foods and feeds constitute a risk for animal and human health. No improvement of the situation could be observed after this period of increased frequency of controls at Union borders. Furthermore, no concrete and satisfactory action plan to remediate the shortcomings and deficiencies in the production and control systems was received from the Indian, Nigerian and Ghanaian authorities, despite the explicit request from the European Commission. |

| (5) | To protect human and animal health in the Union, it is necessary to provide for additional guarantees in relation to those food and feed from India, Ghana and Nigeria. All consignments of groundnuts from India and Ghana, watermelon seeds from Nigeria and curry leaves and okras from India should therefore be accompanied by a certificate stating that the products have been sampled and analysed for the presence of, according to the case, aflatoxins or pesticide residues and have been found compliant with Union legislation. |

The maximum levels of aflatoxins in food are established by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1881/2006 of 19 December 2006 setting maximum levels for certain contaminants in foodstuffs (4) and in feed by Directive 2002/32/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 May 2002 on undesirable substances in animal feed (5). The maximum residue levels for pesticide residues are established by 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 (6). The provisions on sampling and analysis for the control of aflatoxins in food are established by Commission Regulation (EC) No 401/2006 of 23 February 2006 laying down the methods of sampling and analysis for the offcial control of the levels of mycotoxins in foodstuffs (7) and in feed by Commission Regulation (EC) No 152/2009 of 27 January 2009 laying down the methods of sampling and analysis for the official control of feed (8). The provisions on sampling for the official control of pesticide residues are established by Commission Directive 2002/63/EC of 11 July 2002 establishing Community methods of sampling for the official control of pesticide residues in and on products of plant and animal origin and repealing Directive 79/700/EEC (9). |
| --- | --- |

The provisions on sampling and analysis for the control of aflatoxins in food are established by Commission Regulation (EC) No 401/2006 of 23 February 2006 laying down the methods of sampling and analysis for the offcial control of the levels of mycotoxins in foodstuffs (7) and in feed by Commission Regulation (EC) No 152/2009 of 27 January 2009 laying down the methods of sampling and analysis for the official control of feed (8). The provisions on sampling for the official control of pesticide residues are established by Commission Directive 2002/63/EC of 11 July 2002 establishing Community methods of sampling for the official control of pesticide residues in and on products of plant and animal origin and repealing Directive 79/700/EEC (9).

| (8) | In order to ensure an efficient organisation and ensure a degree of uniformity at the Union level of the controls at import, it is appropriate to provide in this Regulation measures which are equivalent to the existing measures as provided for in Regulation (EC) No 669/2009 for the physical control on pesticide residues on curry leaves and okra from India and Commission Regulation (EC) No 1152/2009 of 27 November 2009 imposing special conditions governing the import of certain foodstuffs from certain third countries due to contamination risk by aflatoxins and repealing Decision 2006/504/EC (10) for the control of aflatoxins in groundnuts from India and Ghana and watermelon seeds from Nigeria. |

of 1 February 2013

amending Implementing Regulation (EU) No 700/2012 as regards deductions from the Portuguese fishing quotas available for cod, Greenland halibut and redfish and the Spanish fishing quota available for red seabream in certain areas

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 of 20 November 2009 establishing a Community control system for ensuring compliance with the rules of the common fisheries policy, amending Regulations (EC) No 847/96, (EC) No 2371/2002, (EC) No 811/2004, (EC) No 768/2005, (EC) No 2115/2005, (EC) No 2166/2005, (EC) No 388/2006, (EC) No 509/2007, (EC) No 676/2007, (EC) No 1098/2007, (EC) No 1300/2008, (EC) No 1342/2008 and repealing Regulations (EEC) No 2847/93, (EC) No 1627/94 and (EC) No 1966/2006 (1), and in particular Article 105(1), (2) and (3) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Firstly, following the publication of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 700/2012 of 30 July 2012 operating deductions from fishing quotas available for certain stocks in 2012 on account of overfishing in the previous years (2), the Portuguese fisheries authorities discovered and notified a mistake in the declarations of catches landed by Spain in their country. |

(1)

Firstly, following the publication of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 700/2012 of 30 July 2012 operating deductions from fishing quotas available for certain stocks in 2012 on account of overfishing in the previous years (2), the Portuguese fisheries authorities discovered and notified a mistake in the declarations of catches landed by Spain in their country.

| (2) | Having been consulted, the Spanish fisheries authorities confirmed and corrected the reporting mistake. |
| --- | --- |

(2)

Having been consulted, the Spanish fisheries authorities confirmed and corrected the reporting mistake.

| (3) | After correction, it appears that the Portuguese quotas of the 2011 stocks for cod in NAFO area 3M (COD/N3M.), Greenland halibut in NAFO area 3LMNO (GHL/N3LMNO), redfish in NAFO area 3LN (RED/N3LN.), and in EU and international waters of V; international waters of XII and XIV (RED/51214D) were not overfished. |
| --- | --- |

(3)

After correction, it appears that the Portuguese quotas of the 2011 stocks for cod in NAFO area 3M (COD/N3M.), Greenland halibut in NAFO area 3LMNO (GHL/N3LMNO), redfish in NAFO area 3LN (RED/N3LN.), and in EU and international waters of V; international waters of XII and XIV (RED/51214D) were not overfished.

| (4) | The deductions to these 2012 Portuguese fishing quotas as set out in the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 700/2012 should therefore no longer be applicable. |
| --- | --- |

(4)

The deductions to these 2012 Portuguese fishing quotas as set out in the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 700/2012 should therefore no longer be applicable.

| (5) | Secondly, Council Regulation (EU) No 1225/2010 of 13 December 2010 fixing for 2011 and 2012 the fishing opportunities for EU vessels for fish stocks of certain deep-sea fish species (3) stipulates, for the stock of red seabream in EU and international waters of IX (SBR/09-), that a maximum of 8 % may be fished in EU and international waters of VI, VII and VIII (SBR/*678-). |

Secondly, Council Regulation (EU) No 1225/2010 of 13 December 2010 fixing for 2011 and 2012 the fishing opportunities for EU vessels for fish stocks of certain deep-sea fish species (3) stipulates, for the stock of red seabream in EU and international waters of IX (SBR/09-), that a maximum of 8 % may be fished in EU and international waters of VI, VII and VIII (SBR/*678-).

| (6) | In the framework of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 700/2011 of 20 July 2011 adding to the 2011 fishing quotas certain quantities withheld in the year 2010 pursuant to Article 4(2) of Council Regulation (EC) No 847/96 (4), the 2011 Spanish quota of red seabream in EU and international waters of IX (SBR/09-) has been increased from 614 to 684 tonnes. |

| (7) | Another 30 more tonnes of that stock have been added to the 2011 Spanish quota following an exchange concluded with Portugal on 2 August 2011. |
| --- | --- |

(7)

Another 30 more tonnes of that stock have been added to the 2011 Spanish quota following an exchange concluded with Portugal on 2 August 2011.

| (8) | Considering the 2011 Spanish final adapted quota for red seabream in EU and international waters of IX (SBR/09-) amounting to 714 tonnes, a maximum of 57,12 tonnes, corresponding to 8 %, of red seabream may have been fished by Spain in EU and international waters of VI, VII and VIII (SBR/*678-). It is this amount that should have been taken into account to fix the Spanish final quota of SBR/*678- to be deducted according to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 700/2012. |
