The goods in question had been certified under Regulation (EC) No 834/2007 by ‘Ekolojik Tarim Kontrol Organizasyonu’ (ETKO). Following information received by the Commission from ETKO and an on-the-spot examination of its activities by its accreditation body, serious deficiencies in the checks carried out and a substantial number of non-conformities were documented, which all together indicated a systematic malfunctioning of the control measures applied.

In such circumstances the risk exists for the consumer to be misled about the true nature of the products certified by ETKO. Consequently, ETKO should be withdrawn from the list in accordance with points (d), (e) and (f) of the first subparagraph of Article 12(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1235/2008. |
