COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2019/1746

of 1 October 2019

amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1185 laying down rules for the application of Regulations (EU) No 1307/2013 and (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards notifications to the Commission of information and documents

(Text with EEA relevance)

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 223(3) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1185 (2) lays down the rules for the application of Regulations (EU) No 1307/2013 and (EU) No 1308/2013 as regards the obligations on Member States to notify relevant information and documents to the Commission. |

Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1185 (2) lays down the rules for the application of Regulations (EU) No 1307/2013 and (EU) No 1308/2013 as regards the obligations on Member States to notify relevant information and documents to the Commission.

| (2) | By Resolution dated 7 June 2016 on unfair trading practices in the food supply chain (3), the European Parliament called on all stakeholders in the food supply chain management to step up transparency in the overall food supply chain and for increased transparency and provision of information within the supply chain, and for the strengthening of bodies and market information tools to supply farmers and producer organisations with accurate and timely market data. |

By Resolution dated 7 June 2016 on unfair trading practices in the food supply chain (3), the European Parliament called on all stakeholders in the food supply chain management to step up transparency in the overall food supply chain and for increased transparency and provision of information within the supply chain, and for the strengthening of bodies and market information tools to supply farmers and producer organisations with accurate and timely market data.

| (3) | In December 2016, the Council in its conclusions of 12 December 2016 on strengthening farmers’ position in the food supply chain and tackling unfair trading practices called on the Commission to address the issue of lack of transparency and information asymmetry in the food supply chain. |

In December 2016, the Council in its conclusions of 12 December 2016 on strengthening farmers’ position in the food supply chain and tackling unfair trading practices called on the Commission to address the issue of lack of transparency and information asymmetry in the food supply chain.

| (4) | In April 2019, Directive (EU) 2019/633 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4) was adopted, following which the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission issued a joint statement (5) on 22 March 2019 calling on/encouraging the Commission to enhance agricultural and food market transparency at Union level, including by improving the collection of statistical data necessary for the analysis of price formation mechanisms along the agricultural and food supply chain, with the aim of facilitating economic operators and public authorities in making more informed choices and to improve the understanding of operators on market developments. |

| (5) | Furthermore, in January 2016, the Commission set up the Agricultural Markets Task Force, an independent expert group, to provide recommendations on how to enhance the position of producers in the agricultural and food supply chain. To that end, it recommended to increase market transparency to foster effective conditions of competition along the chain by introducing or enhancing existing price reporting especially in the meat, fruit and vegetables and dairy sectors. It also recommended the collected data be disseminated in a duly aggregated manner. |

Notification of price, production and market information from Member States is already obligatory under Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/1185, but only in relation to production prices.

| (8) | Therefore, whilst on the one hand the Union is currently providing a relatively high level of public information on producer prices and consumer prices, stemming from statistical offices in Member States, on the other hand very little information on the prices along the agricultural and food supply chain is available to the public. An extension of price reporting should address these information gaps, in particular where sectoral food supply chains are complex. Monitoring price transmission along the chain by extending data collection and dissemination should enable market actors to have a better understanding of the functioning of the supply chain, thereby improving its overall functioning and economic efficiency, in particular for weaker operators who do not have readily access to private price information. |

Monitoring price transmission along the chain will require collecting price data from different operators along the chain (for example wholesalers, traders, food industry, and retailers) in particular for supply chains with highly differentiated stages and products. |

| (10) | Reporting only representative prices (such as prices from main markets and significant operators) should enable Member States to pursue a cost-effective approach for their reporting and contribute to keeping the administrative burden for small and medium-sized enterprises to a minimum. In line with current practices, Member States should describe the methodology for setting representative prices. They should also aim at approximating their methodologies to ensure the best possible comparability of the data across Member States. |

Member States should inform the Commission if they delegate this obligation to notify the information to operators. |
