THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 establishing a common organisation of the markets in agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 922/72, (EEC) No 234/79, (EC) No 1037/2001 and (EC) No 1234/2007 (1), and in particular Articles 56(1), 223(2) and 231(1) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 replaced Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 (3) and lays down new rules regarding aid in the apiculture sector. It also empowers the Commission to adopt delegated and implementing acts in that respect.

| (2) | Article 55 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 states that Member States may draw up national programmes for the apiculture sector covering a period of three years (‘apiculture programmes’).

Therefore, participating Member States should report to the Commission on a yearly basis the number of beehives determined in accordance with this Regulation. |

Article 2

Method to determine the number of beehives

Member States submitting national programmes for the apiculture sector as referred to in Article 55 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 (‘apiculture programmes’) shall have a reliable method to determine, between 1 September and 31 December each year, the number of beehives ready for wintering present in their territory.

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 establishing a common organisation of the markets in agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 922/72, (EEC) No 234/79, (EC) No 1037/2001 and (EC) No 1234/2007 (1), and in particular points (a) and (c) of the first paragraph and the second paragraph of Article 57 and Article 223(3) thereof,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 on the financing, management and monitoring of the common agricultural policy and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 352/78, (EC) No 165/94, (EC) No 2799/98, (EC) No 814/2000, (EC) No 1290/2005 and (EC) No 485/2008 (2), and in particular Article 58(4), point (b) of the first subparagraph and the second subparagraph of Article 63(5) and point (a) of the first subparagraph and the second subparagraph of Article 64(7) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 replaced Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 (3) and lays down new rules regarding aid in the apiculture sector. It also empowers the Commission to adopt delegated and implementing acts in that respect. In order to ensure the smooth functioning of the aid scheme in the new legal framework, certain rules have to be adopted by means of such acts. Those acts should replace Commission Regulation (EC) No 917/2004 (4). That Regulation is repealed by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/1366 (5). |

COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2015/1369

of 7 August 2015

amending Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1031/2014 laying down further temporary exceptional support measures for producers of certain fruit and vegetables

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 establishing a common organisation of the markets in agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 922/72, (EEC) No 234/79, (EC) No 1037/2001 and (EC) No 1234/2007 (1), and in particular Article 219(1) in conjunction with Article 228 thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | On 7 August 2014 the Russian government introduced a ban on imports of certain products from the Union to Russia, including fruit and vegetables. In response, the Commission adopted a series of exceptional support measures, in particular by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 913/2014 (2) for peaches and nectarines and by Commission Delegated Regulations (EU) No 932/2014 (3) and (EU) No 1031/2014 (4) for other fruit and vegetables. |

(1)

On 7 August 2014 the Russian government introduced a ban on imports of certain products from the Union to Russia, including fruit and vegetables. In response, the Commission adopted a series of exceptional support measures, in particular by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 913/2014 (2) for peaches and nectarines and by Commission Delegated Regulations (EU) No 932/2014 (3) and (EU) No 1031/2014 (4) for other fruit and vegetables.

| (2) | On 24 June 2015 that ban was extended until August 2016. Owing to the continuation of the ban a serious threat of market disturbances persists and could cause significant price falls due to the fact that an important export market continues to be unavailable. For such a market situation, the normal measures available under Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 appear to be insufficient. The mechanism based on support for certain quantities of products under Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1031/2014 should therefore be prolonged. |

The mechanism based on support for certain quantities of products under Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1031/2014 should therefore be prolonged.

| (3) | To establish an effective safety net, the Union financial assistance should be prolonged for all the products covered by Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1031/2014 for a year. Furthermore, due to their seasonal exports, peaches and nectarines of CN code 0809 30, which were eligible for support last year under Delegated Regulation (EU) No 913/2014, should now be added to the list of products eligible for support under Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1031/2014. |

| (4) | The calculation of the quantities allocated to each Member State should be made on the basis of the level of exports to Russia of the products concerned during the three years preceeding the announcement of the ban, adjusted by the level of uptake by the producers in each Member State of the exceptional support measures made available to them for those products in the last year. |

The calculation of the quantities allocated to each Member State should be made on the basis of the level of exports to Russia of the products concerned during the three years preceeding the announcement of the ban, adjusted by the level of uptake by the producers in each Member State of the exceptional support measures made available to them for those products in the last year.

| (5) | Where the uptake of these exceptional support measures within a Member State has been very low for a particular product and the administrative costs of providing support therefore disproportionately high, that Member State should have the option to choose not to continue to implement these measures for the extended period. |

Where the uptake of these exceptional support measures within a Member State has been very low for a particular product and the administrative costs of providing support therefore disproportionately high, that Member State should have the option to choose not to continue to implement these measures for the extended period.

| (6) | It is likely to be expected that the products concerned, which would normally have been exported to Russia, will be diverted to the markets of other Member States. Producers of the same products within those Member States, which do not traditionally export their products to Russia, may accordingly be faced with significant market disturbance and a fall in prices. |

Producers of the same products within those Member States, which do not traditionally export their products to Russia, may accordingly be faced with significant market disturbance and a fall in prices.

| (7) | Therefore, in order to further stabilise the market, Union financial assistance should again also be available for producers in all Member States in respect of one or more of the products covered by Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1031/2014 for a quantity not exceeding 3 000 tonnes per Member State. |

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Council Directive 89/662/EEC of 11 December 1989 concerning veterinary checks in intra-Community trade with a view to the completion of the internal market (1), and in particular Article 9(4) thereof,
