THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3/2008 of 17 December 2007 on information provision and promotion measures for agricultural products on the internal market and in third countries (1), and in particular Articles 4, 5, 9 and 15 thereof,

(1)

Regulation (EC) No 3/2008 provides that the Commission is to lay down the implementing rules for information and promotion programmes part-financed by the Community budget.

| (2) | Taking account of experience gained, the prospects for market development both within and outside the Community and the new international trade situation, an overall, coherent information and promotion policy should be developed for agricultural products and their method of production, as well as for food products based on agricultural products, on the internal market and on third country markets, without encouraging the consumption of any product on grounds of its specific origin. In the interests of clarity, Commission Regulation (EC) No 1071/2005 of 1 July 2005 laying down detailed rules for applying Council Regulation (EC) No 2826/2000 on information and promotion actions for agricultural products on the internal market (2) and Commission Regulation (EC) No 1346/2005 of 16 August 2005 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 2702/1999 on measures to provide information on, and to promote, agricultural products in third countries (3) should therefore be repealed and replaced by a single regulation, whilst maintaining, in separate chapters, the specific features of measures according to the market in which they are implemented. |

While the Community production of fruit and vegetables is increasing, consumption is on the whole static.

There is a noticeable lack of interest among consumers, which is even stronger amongst the young, notably children and adolescents in educational establishments. This is not conducive to a balanced diet.

2.   Goals

The aims are to improve the image of the products as being ‘fresh’ and ‘natural’, encourage their regular consumption and bring down the average age of consumers. The latter may be attained by encouraging young people, and in particular children and adolescents in educational establishments, to consume the products concerned.

PROCESSED FRUIT AND VEGETABLES

1.   Overview of the situation

The sector faces increasing competition from several third countries.

As demand is gradually increasing, in particular because of the ease of consumption of these products, it is important for the Community industry to be able to benefit from this potential. Therefore support for information and promotion actions is justified.

2.   Goals

The image of the product needs to be modernised and made more youthful, giving the information needed to encourage consumption.

FIBRE FLAX

1.   Overview of the situation

The liberalisation of international trade in textiles and clothing has brought Community flax into sharp competition with flax from outside the Community offered at very attractive prices. It is also in competition with other fibres. At the same time, consumption of fibre flax is tending to stagnate.

LIVE PLANTS AND ORNAMENTAL HORTICULTURE PRODUCTS

1.   Overview of the situation

The supply situation of the sector is characterised by increasing competition between products from the Community and products from third countries.

The evaluation studies of the promotion campaigns carried out between 1997 and 2000 suggest that, in order to facilitate the sale of Community production within the Community, the whole chain from producer to distributor needs to be better organised and rationalised, and consumers should be better informed about the intrinsic qualities and varieties of Community products.

OLIVE OIL AND TABLE OLIVES

1.   Overview of the situation

While the supply of olive oil and table olives is on the increase, the outlets on the internal and international markets are important to safeguard the Community market equilibrium. The situation at the level of demand for these products varies widely between traditional consumer markets and those where they are a relatively new phenomenon.

In the ‘traditional consumer’ Member States (Spain, Italy, Greece and Portugal), the products concerned are generally well known and consumption is high. These are mature markets where the prospects for any overall increase in demand are limited, but taking into account their current share of the consumption of olive oil they continue to be of great interest to the sector.

In the ‘new consumer’ Member States, per capita consumption has progressed but is still substantially lower (in the Community as constituted on 30 April 2004) or marginal (in the majority of the new Member States which joined on 1 May 2004). Many consumers are not aware of the qualities or of the various uses of olive oil and table olives. This is thus a market with scope for increasing demand.

2.   Goals

| — | As a priority: to increase consumption in the ‘new consumer’ Member States by increasing market penetration, and to increase consumption by diversifying the use of these products and by providing necessary information |

6.   Duration and scope of the programmes

Twelve to 36 months, giving priority to multiannual programmes, presenting for each phase a strategy and duly justified objectives.

Priority will be given to programmes to be implemented in at least two ‘new consumer’ Member States.

SEED OILS

In this sector, programmes concentrating on rapeseed oil or presenting the characteristics of different seed oils will be given priority.

A.   
  RAPESEED OIL

1.   Overview of the situation

Following the reform of the common agricultural policy, rapeseed production does not receive any specific support and has to become market-oriented. With increased possibilities for production and as an alternative to cereal crops, which are characterised by structural overproduction, promotion of rapeseed oil will contribute to the balance in the arable crops market and the consumption of different vegetable oils in the Community. The Community is currently a net exporter of rapeseed oil.

During the past decades rape varieties with valuable nutritional characteristics have been developed. This has resulted in improved quality. New products such as cold-pressed rapeseed oils with a particular nutty taste have been developed.

The nutritional value of rapeseed oil has been the subject of worldwide research with results confirming the beneficial dietary and physiological characteristics of the product. General practitioners, nutritionists and consumers should be informed about these latest research results.

2.   Goals

| — | To improve awareness of the characteristics of rapeseed oil and recent developments |

6.   Duration of the programmes

Twelve to 36 months.

B.   
  SUNFLOWER OIL

Programmes for sunflower oil will be given priority only if and when justified by market conditions.

1.   Overview of the situation

Over 2 million ha in the Community are used to grow sunflowers, and production of sunflower seeds exceeds 3,5 million tonnes per year. Sunflower oil consumed in the Community has mainly been produced from seeds grown in the Community. However, the decline in crushing will reduce EU sunflower oil production during the 2004/2005 marketing year. As world prices are on the increase and shortages of supply are possible, priority is not given to programmes concentrating on sunflower oil alone. It can, nevertheless, be included in programmes covering different seed oils of Community origin.

Sunflower oil as a product has particular advantages for certain uses such as frying. It is also high in unsaturated fatty acids and rich in vitamin E. The purpose of campaigns is to inform consumers and traders/distributors about the different uses, types and characteristics of sunflower oil, and about the Community legislation concerning its quality. The campaigns should be designed so as to give objective information.

2.   Goals

To inform consumers and the trade operators about the following:

| — | different uses of sunflower oil, its characteristics and nutritional value, |
| --- | --- |

—

different uses of sunflower oil, its characteristics and nutritional value,

| — | legislation and standards governing quality rules on labelling. |

MILK AND MILK PRODUCTS

1.   Overview of the situation

There has been a drop in the consumption of liquid milk, particularly in the major consumer countries, mainly due to the competition from soft drinks targeted at young people. Various milk substitutes are gradually replacing the consumption of liquid milk. By contrast, there is an overall increase in the consumption of milk products expressed in milk equivalent.

2.   Goals

FRESH, CHILLED OR FROZEN MEAT, PRODUCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH A COMMUNITY OR NATIONAL QUALITY SCHEME

1.   Overview of the situation

Health problems which have affected many livestock products have highlighted the need to strengthen consumer confidence in Community meat products.

This involves providing objective information on Community and national quality systems and controls that they require in addition to the general legislation on controls and food safety. These rules and controls form an additional guarantee by providing product specifications and additional control structures.

2.   Goals

| — | Information campaigns are limited to products produced under the Community quality schemes (PDO/PGI/TSG and organic farming) and under quality schemes recognised by the Member States and fulfilling the criteria defined in Article 32 of Regulation (EC) No 1698/2005. Without prejudice to Article 15(2) of this Regulation, information campaigns funded under this Regulation cannot be funded under Regulation (EC) No 1698/2005 as well. |

MARKING OF EGGS FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION

1.   Overview of the situation

In accordance with Article 4(1) of Council Regulation (EC) No 1028/2006 (5), a code identifying the producer and the system employed to rear the laying hens is stamped on the shell of all eggs intended for human consumption. This code is composed of a number identifying the farming method (0 = organic, 1 = free range, 2 = barn, 3 = cage), the ISO code of the Member State where the production centre is located and a number allocated to the production centre by the relevant authority.

2.   Goals

HONEY AND BEEKEEPING PRODUCTS

1.   Overview of the situation

The Community quality honey and beekeeping products sector, which receives very little Community support, faces increasing global competition. The fact that production costs are high in the Community makes the situation even more difficult.

Since 2001 the sector has been subject to Council Directive 2001/110/EC (7) introducing labelling which links quality and origin. Supported programmes must concentrate on Community honeys and beekeeping products with complementary indications concerning the regional, territorial or topographical origin, or quality labels certified either by the Community (PDO, PGI, TSG or organic) or by a Member State.

2.   Goals

PRODUCTS WITH A PROTECTED DESIGNATION OF ORIGIN (PDO), A PROTECTED GEOGRAPHICAL INDICATION (PGI) OR TRADITIONAL SPECIALITY GUARANTEED (TSG)

1.   Overview of the situation

The Community system for protecting product names provided for in Regulations (EC) No 509/2006 and (EC) No 510/2006 is a priority in the implementation of the quality strand of the common agricultural policy. It is therefore necessary to continue previous efforts to run campaigns by which the denominations and the products bearing the protected names are made known to all potential actors in the chain of production, preparation, marketing and consumption of these products.

2.   Goals

Information and promotion campaigns should not focus on one or only a very limited number of product names, but rather on groups of names either of certain product categories or of products produced in one or several regions in one or several Member States.

The objectives of these campaigns should be to:

| — | provide comprehensive information on the content, the operation and the Community nature of the schemes and, in particular, on their effects on the commercial value of the products with protected names which after registration benefit from the protection granted by these schemes, |

INFORMATION ON THE GRAPHIC SYMBOL FOR THE OUTERMOST REGIONS

1.   Overview of the situation

This guideline refers to the outermost regions of the Community as defined in Article 299(2) of the Treaty. The outside evaluation study shows that the Community’s 1998/1999 information campaign on the graphic symbol (logo) for the outermost regions was received with a great deal of interest on the part of those operating in the sector.

As a result, some producers and processors sought approval for their quality products, so that they could use the logo.

In view of the short run of this first campaign, it is appropriate to continue improving the various target-groups’ awareness of the logo by continuing the measures to inform them about its meaning and benefits.

2.   Goals

ORGANIC FARMING PRODUCTS

1.   Overview of the situation

The consumption of organic farming products is particularly popular among urban populations, but the market share of these products is still fairly limited.

The level of awareness among consumers and other interested groups about the characteristics of organic farming production methods is increasing but is still inadequate.

In the Community Action Plan for Organic Food and Farming (9), information and promotion actions are considered a key instrument in further developing the demand for organic food.

2.   Goals

Information and promotion campaigns should not focus on one or a few selected products, but rather on groups of products or on the organic farming system as applied in one or more regions in one or more Member States.

The objectives of these campaigns should be to:

| — | encourage the consumption of organic farming products, |

POULTRYMEAT

1.   Overview of the situation

The crisis of consumer confidence in poultrymeat resulting from the reports on avian influenza in the media has resulted in a substantial fall in consumption. Consumer confidence in poultrymeat of Community origin should therefore be strengthened.

To achieve this, objective information on Community production systems (marketing standards) and the controls required should be provided in addition to the general legislation on controls and food safety.

2.   Goals

‘ANNEX I B

1.

This Annex covers textile raw materials (categories 128 and 154), textile products other than those of wool and fine animal hair, cotton and man-made fibres, as well as man-made fibres and filaments and yarns of categories 124, 125A, 125B, 126, 127A and 127B.

2.

Without prejudice to the rules for the interpretation of the combined nomenclature, the wording of the description of goods is considered to be of indicative value only, since the products covered by each category are determined, within this Annex, by CN codes. Where there is an “ex” symbol in front of a CN code, the products covered in each category are determined by the scope of the CN code and by that of the corresponding description.

3.

Garments which are not recognisable as being garments for men or boys or as being garments for women or girls are classified with the latter.

4.

Where the expression “babies' garments” is used, this is meant to cover garments up to and including commercial size 86.

COUNCIL DECISION

of 3 June 2008

authorising Portugal to apply a reduced rate of excise duty on locally produced beer in the autonomous region of Madeira

(2008/417/EC)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular the second subparagraph of Article 299(2) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),

Whereas:

| (1) | By a request dated 30 May 2007 and referring to Article 299(2) of the Treaty, Portugal seeks a derogation from Article 90 of the Treaty in order to apply a rate of excise duty, lower than the national rate set in accordance with Council Directive 92/84/EEC of 19 October 1992 on the approximation of the rates of excise duty on alcohol and alcoholic beverages (2) to beer produced in Madeira, in cases where the annual production of the brewery does not exceed 300 000 hectolitres. Production in excess of 200 000 hectolitres would benefit from the reduced only to the extent it is consumed locally. |
| --- | --- |

(1)

By a request dated 30 May 2007 and referring to Article 299(2) of the Treaty, Portugal seeks a derogation from Article 90 of the Treaty in order to apply a rate of excise duty, lower than the national rate set in accordance with Council Directive 92/84/EEC of 19 October 1992 on the approximation of the rates of excise duty on alcohol and alcoholic beverages (2) to beer produced in Madeira, in cases where the annual production of the brewery does not exceed 300 000 hectolitres. Production in excess of 200 000 hectolitres would benefit from the reduced only to the extent it is consumed locally.

| (2) | By way of justification for its request, Portugal has explained that the possibilities offered by Article 4 of Council Directive 92/83/EEC of 19 October 1992 on the harmonisation of the structures of excise duties on alcohol and alcoholic beverages (3) are not sufficient to offset the disadvantages suffered by the breweries in Madeira on account of their remote location, fragmented terrain and tight local markets. Under that Article, breweries whose annual beer production does not exceed 200 000 hectolitres may benefit from reduced rates of excise duty, provided that those rates are not set at more than 50 % below the standard national rate. Portugal has made use of this provision, applying a 50 % reduction to breweries whose annual production does not exceed 200 000 hectolitres. However, it does not signify that breweries located in Madeira that reach production in excess of that threshold would be in a sufficiently strong position to face up to competition from beers from mainland Portugal (or mainland Europe). Their share of the local market would continue to diminish as a result of the strong competition that they would continue to face from foreign beers owing to the additional costs that they would have to meet as a result of their remoteness, namely maintaining high level of stocks, transport of raw and secondary materials, and packaging from mainland Portugal. Thus, even though such breweries would, upon reaching 200 000 hectolitres annual production, cease to be ‘small’ as defined in Article 4 of Directive 92/83/EEC, they would nonetheless continue to be small compared to the large national and multinational breweries with whom they compete. It is, therefore, essential for the continued survival of the local industry that breweries should benefit from a reduced rate in the event that their annual production exceeds 200 000 hectolitres, without however going beyond 300 000 hectolitres. |

| (3) | Portugal therefore requests that the entitlement to a reduced rate, which would be set at 50 % below the standard national rate, should be available to beer produced locally by independent brewers situated in Madeira whose annual production does not exceed 300 000 hectolitres. However, where annual production exceeds 200 000 hectolitres the entitlement to a reduced rate for quantities in excess of this figure will only apply to beer which is to be consumed locally in Madeira. |

| (4) | A careful examination of the situation shows that it is essential to grant Portugal's request, if the brewing industry is to be maintained in the outermost region of Madeira. It is clear that, in the circumstances of this case and subject to the relevant conditions, the effect of extending the tax reduction will be to place the brewing industry of Madeira on an equal footing with its competitors in mainland Portugal and other Member States. The tax advantages gained will do no more than offset the extra costs necessarily incurred as a result of the remoteness of the industry's location. |

| (6) | Although the requested derogation from Article 90 of the Treaty is necessary to ensure that the development of the outermost region of Madeira is not jeopardised, it is also necessary to set a time limit on tax derogations. On the other hand, however, it is important to ensure that local economic operators have the requisite security to develop their commercial activities. It is appropriate, therefore, that the derogation be granted for a period of six years. |

(8)

The measures provided for in this Decision should be without prejudice to the application of Articles 87 and 88 of the Treaty,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

By way of derogation from Article 90 of the Treaty, Portugal is authorised to apply a rate of excise duty lower than the national rate fixed in accordance with Directive 92/84/EEC in the case of beer produced in the autonomous region of Madeira by independent breweries situated in that region, whose total annual production does not exceed 300 000 hectolitres. Production in excess of 200 000 hectolitres annually may benefit from the reduced rate only to the extent it is consumed locally in Madeira.

The term ‘independent brewery’ shall mean a brewery which is legally and economically independent of any other brewery, which uses premises situated physically apart from those of any other brewery and does not operate under licence. However, where two or more breweries cooperate, and their combined annual production does not exceed 300 000 hectolitres, those breweries may be treated as a single independent brewery.

The reduced excise duty rate, which may fall below the minimum rate, shall not be set more than 50 % lower than the standard national excise duty rate for Portugal.

Article 2

By 31 December 2010, Portugal shall send the Commission a report on the situation, to enable it to assess whether the reasons justifying the derogation provided for in Article 1 still exist.

Article 3

This Decision shall apply until 31 December 2013.

Article 4

This Decision is addressed to the Portuguese Republic.
