COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1418/2005

of 29 August 2005

derogating from Council Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 as regards the start of the period for certain payments

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 of 29 September 2003 establishing common rules for direct support schemes under the common agricultural policy and establishing certain support schemes for farmers and amending Regulations (EEC) No 2019/93, (EC) No 1452/2001, (EC) No 1453/2001, (EC) No 1454/2001, (EC) 1868/94, (EC) No 1251/1999, (EC) No 1254/1999, (EC) No 1673/2000, (EEC) No 2358/71 and (EC) No 2529/2001 (1), and in particular Articles 145(q) and 155 thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Pursuant to Chapter 7 of Title IV of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003, milk producers may qualify for a dairy premium and for additional payments. Pursuant to Article 28(2) of that Regulation, those premiums and payments are to be paid once a year within the period from 1 December to 30 June of the following calendar year. |

Pursuant to Article 28(2) of that Regulation, those premiums and payments are to be paid once a year within the period from 1 December to 30 June of the following calendar year.

| (2) | Despite direct aids paid to the producers, the fall in prices on the milk market threatens to have a negative impact on the financial position of dairy holdings in the short term as such aids are paid only on certain specific dates throughout the year. To be able to react to this situation, several Member States have asked the Commission to take urgent measures to combat this risk. Bringing forward the disbursement period for direct aids in the milk sector constitutes an appropriate step in this direction. However, for budgetary reasons, it cannot begin before 16 October 2005. |

To avoid this postponement affecting the financial situation of holdings engaged in the production of sheep and goats and of suckler cows, several Member States have asked the Commission to take transitional measures. Bringing forward to 1 November the disbursement period for the sheep and goat premiums and suckler cow premium provided for in Chapter 11 of Title IV and in Article 125 respectively of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 constitutes an appropriate step in this direction. |

| (5) | Pursuant to paragraph 3 of Decision XII/2 of the Twelfth Meeting of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol on measures to facilitate the transition to chlorofluorocarbon-free Metered-Dose Inhalers (MDIs), Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Poland, Norway, Portugal, The Netherlands, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom have notified the United Nations Environment Programme (2) that chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are no longer essential for the manufacture of CFC-MDIs that contain active ingredients belonging to the therapeutic categories of ‘short-acting beta agonist bronchiodilators’, ‘inhaled steroids’ and ‘anticholinergic bronchiodilators’. Article 4(4)(i)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 2037/2000 prevents CFCs from being used and placed on the market unless they are considered essential under the conditions described in Article 3(1) of that Regulation. These non-essentiality determinations have reduced the demand for CFCs in the Community. In addition, Article 4(6) of Regulation (EC) No 2037/2000 prevents CFC-MDI products being imported and placed on the market unless the CFCs in these products are considered essential under the conditions described in Article 3(1). |

ANNEX

Methods for grading pig carcases in the Netherlands

PART 1

Hennessy Grading Probe (HGP 2)

1.   Grading of pig carcases shall be carried out by means of the apparatus termed as Hennessy Grading Probe (HGP 2).

2.   The apparatus shall be equipped with a probe of 5,95 millimetres in diameter (and of 6,3 millimetres at the blade on top of the probe) containing a photodiode (LED Siemens of the type LYU 260-EO and photodetector of the type 58 MR) and having an operating distance of between 0 and 120 millimetres. The results of the measurements shall be converted into estimated lean meat content by means of the HGP 2 itself as well as a computer linked to it.

3.   The lean meat content of the carcase shall be calculated according to the following formula:

Image 182
   = p
  Image 183
  gilt + (1 – p)
  Image 184
  castrate (%)

where:

Image 185

  = the estimated percentage of lean meat in the carcase,

Image 186
  gilt= 61,38 – 0,74 X1 + 0,13 X2 (%),

Image 187
  castrate= 59,35 – 0,67 X1 + 0,13 X2 (%),

where:

X1
  = the thickness of back-fat (including rind) in millimetres, measured at six centimetres off the midline of the split carcase, between the third and fourth last ribs,

X2
  = the thickness of muscle in millimetres, measured at the same time and in the same place as X1,

p= 1/ (1 + exp (– η)),

where:

η= – 3,277 – 0,4580 X1 + 0,3038 X2 + 0,007777 (X1)2 – 0,001792 (X2)2 – 0,002557 X1 * X2

This formula shall be valid for carcases weighing between 50 and 120 kg.

4.   However, as from 1 July 2006, the lean meat content of the carcase shall be calculated according to the following formula:

Image 188
   = 60,85 – 0,745 X1 + 0,133 X2

where:

Image 189

  = predicted lean meat percentage,

X1
  = the thickness of back-fat (including rind) in millimetres, measured at six centimetres off the midline of the split carcase, between the third and fourth last ribs,

X2
  = the thickness of muscle in millimetres, measured at the same time and in the same place as X1.

This formula shall be valid for carcases weighing between 50 and 120 kilograms.

PART 2

VISION system (VCS 2000)

1.   Grading of pig carcases shall be carried out by means of the apparatus termed VISION system (VCS 2000).

2.   The apparatus VISION system (VCS 2000) is a picture-processing system for automatically determining the trade values of pork-carcass-halves. The system is used online within the slaughtering production system where via a camera system the carcass halves are automatically filmed. The picture data is then processed in a computer by special picture-processing software.

3.   The lean meat content of the carcase shall be calculated according to the following formula:
