Whereas:

(2)

The current provisions applying to the management of fleet capacity should be adapted in the light of experience.

| (3) | Member States should be allowed to grant a limited increase in tonnage to new or existing vessels in order to improve safety, hygiene, working conditions and product quality on board, provided it does not increase the ability of the vessels to catch fish and gives priority to small scale coastal fisheries within the meaning of Article 26 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006 of 27 July 2006 on a European Fisheries Fund (3). That increase should be linked to their efforts to adjust fishing capacity with public aid between 1 January 2003 or 1 May 2004 and 31 December 2006 and from 1 January 2007 onwards. |
| --- | --- |

| (4) | The reduction in engine power required for the replacement of engines with public aid under the provisions of Article 25(3)(b) and (c) of Regulation (EC) No 1198/2006 should be considered as an exit of capacity from the fleet with public aid in relation to the application of the entry-exit regime and the adjustment of the reference levels. |

In their objections, Germany and Italy stated that the conditions laid down in Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006 had not been fulfilled and that in particular the link between the product and the geographical area was not demonstrated to the requisite legal standard and was thus insufficient to satisfy the definition of a geographical indication. In addition, Germany pointed out that certain elements contained in the product specification were likely to be in breach of Council Directive 2001/110/EC on honey of 20 December 2001 (3), in particular the option of adding dried fruit to the honey, which according to Germany was not in compliance with the definition of ‘honey’ given in the Directive. |

4.3.   
  Geographical area
  The production, processing and packaging area of the honeys coming under the protected geographical indication Miel de Galicia covers the whole of the Autonomous Community of Galicia.

4.4.   
  Proof of origin
  The PGI Miel de Galicia may only cover honey coming from the installations listed in the registers of the regulatory body, produced in accordance with the standards laid down in the product specification and the quality control manual and possessing the characteristics which are supposed to be typical of this honey.

The regulatory body keeps the following registers:

| — | register of holdings, in which those holdings are listed which are situated in the Autonomous Community of Galicia and intend to produce honey covered by the protected geographical indication Miel de Galicia; |
| --- | --- |

—

register of holdings, in which those holdings are listed which are situated in the Autonomous Community of Galicia and intend to produce honey covered by the protected geographical indication Miel de Galicia;

| — | register of extraction, storage and/or packaging installations in which those installations are listed which are situated in the Autonomous Community of Galicia and whose activities include processing honey which may be protected by the geographical indication. |
| --- | --- |

—

register of extraction, storage and/or packaging installations in which those installations are listed which are situated in the Autonomous Community of Galicia and whose activities include processing honey which may be protected by the geographical indication.

All individual or legal persons holding assets listed in the registers, as well as holdings, installations and products are subjected to checks carried out by the regulatory body in order to verify that the products bearing the protected geographical indication Miel de Galicia fulfil the requirements set out in the specification and any other relevant provisions.

Each marketing year, the quantities of honey certified by the protected geographical indication which have been placed on the market by each firm listed on the register of extraction, storage and/or packaging installations are checked by the regulatory body to verify that they tally with the quantities of honey produced by the beekeepers listed in the register of producers or purchased from them or from other firms listed in the register.

The checks take the form of inspections of the holdings and the installations, scrutiny of the documents and an analysis of the raw material and the finished product.

As stated above, both production and post-production activities (extraction, storage and packaging) should be carried out in the defined geographical area.

The honey is also packaged in this area, to which it is traditionally linked, to guarantee that the specific characteristics and quality of honey from Galicia are preserved and ensure that the checks carried out by the competent authorities on transport, storage and packaging conditions allow the quality of the product to be maintained.

In addition, packaging must only use containers with the specific characteristics given in the specification and take place in installations reserved exclusively for the packaging of honey produced by holdings listed in the registers of the protected geographical indication. Front and back labelling must also take place in these installations under the supervision of the regulatory body. All these measures ensure that the quality and traceability of the product is guaranteed.

The certification process relates to homogenous batches and entails relevant analytical and organoleptic examinations and inspections as established by the regulatory body. In light of the technical reports which are produced, the regulatory and certification body will decide whether to accept, reject or temporarily store the batch of tested honey.

Where any kind of impairment is noted which affects the quality of the honey or where the provisions of the Regulation on the protected geographical indication and other legislative acts are not respected during production, processing and packaging, the honeys are not certified by the regulatory body and consequently lose their right to use the protected geographical indication.

4.5.   
  Method of production
  Hive management practices seek to produce the highest quality honeys covered by the geographical indication. During harvesting, the hives are never subjected to any chemical treatment and the bees are given no food whatsoever.

Traditional methods are used to remove the bees from the honeycombs. Preference is given to a bee escape or blower, while the smoker is used in moderation and chemical repellents are never used.

The honey is extracted by centrifuging or decanting, never by pressing.

The work involving the extraction of honey is always undertaken with the greatest care and under strict hygiene conditions. It is carried out in a closed area which is clean and set aside for this purpose. The air inside is dried using a dehumidifier or ventilation and this commences a week in advance, until a relative humidity of less than 60 % is attained.

The techniques used for uncapping the combs may in no way alter the factors which determine the quality of the honeys. The uncapping knives must be very clean, dry and never more than 40 °C.

Once the honey has been extracted and poured through a double filter, it undergoes a decanting process and scumming is carried out before it is stored and packed.

The harvesting and transport of the honey are carried out under strict hygiene conditions using containers intended for foodstuffs, which are approved by the quality manual and the legislation in force and will guarantee the quality of the product.

The honey is packaged in installations listed in the regulatory body‘s relevant register. The volume of the containers used for honey for direct consumption tends to vary between 500 and 1 000 grams.

The container should be hermetically sealed to prevent the loss of natural aromas, absorption of odours and atmospheric humidity, which could spoil the product.

4.6.   
  Link

Historical link

Bee-keeping reached the peak of its success in Galicia before the introduction of sugar, honey being highly prized as a sweetener and for its special medicinal properties. According to the Catastro de Ensenada of 1752-53, Galicia had a total of 366 339 traditional beehives, also known as trobos or cortizos, which are still found in a number of places. This fact clearly illustrates the importance of bee-keeping in Galicia going back to antiquity, and is reflected in Galician place names.

The words cortín, albar, abellariza, albiza and albariza all mean a rural open-topped construction, oval, circular or sometimes rectangular, consisting of high walls for protecting hives and preventing any animals intruding (mainly bears). These constructions bear witness to a different era and are still standing today. They continue to be used in many mountainous areas, particularly in the eastern sierras of Ancares and Caurel and the Sierra del Suído.

The first work published in Galicia on beekeeping is probably the Manual de Apicultura by Don Ramón Pimentel Méndez (1893), written specifically for Galician bee-keepers.

In 1880 the parish priest of Argozón (Chantada, Lugo), Don Benigno Ledo, set up the first mobile hive and, a few years later, he built the first hive designed for breeding by division and for the breeding of queens and called it a nursery hive. Roma Fábrega’s book on bee-keeping states that the first Spaniard to have possessed mobile hives is the Galician ‘priest of the bees’, Don Benigno Ledo, bearing witness to his importance for bee-keeping not just in Galicia but also in Spain.

Honey from Galicia is described in the Spanish inventory of traditional products, published by the Spanish Ministry for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food in 1996 (pages 174 and 175). The product is an important commercial attraction during traditional autumn festivities.

In 1988, the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries carried out a study on the honey trade in Spain. This study revealed that the north west of the country (Galicia) has a higher honey consumption than other Spanish communities and that the price of honey is also higher there. Since antiquity, Galician consumers have enjoyed honey produced in their own Autonomous Community, which gives it a higher market value, something which is not the case in neighbouring communities.

Natural link

Situated in the north-western corner of the Iberian Peninsula, Galicia is one of the oldest territorial entities in Spain, whose name has remained practically unchanged since Roman times (the Romans called this region Gallaecia) and which has had almost the same borders for more than eight centuries. The administrative borders of this region coincide with geographic boundaries which, from north to south and east to west, have kept it traditionally isolated from its neighbouring regions, which explains how it has kept its own language.

These geographical boundaries shape the climate of Galicia. Estuaries and river valleys provide inland areas with a marine influence which is a consequence of the south-west-north-east orientation (a phenomenon which is not found anywhere else on Spanish coasts) and sierras which limit the passage of various weather fronts, giving the climate of this region specific characteristics in terms of temperature and precipitation.

In addition, the majority of Galicia is, with respect to geomorphology, lithology and soil conditions, different to other traditional bee-keeping regions in the Mediterranean. Acidic soils predominate, determining the local vegetation and consequently the production of nectar and the characteristics of the local honeys.

The region is therefore very different to the rest of the Iberian Peninsula. This difference is a consequence of geomorphological, climactic, biological and soil factors. These determine the local flora, which is adapted to the natural conditions formed by all these variables.

Galicia is fairly homogenous with respect to the plants which provide nectar for the production of honey. The most significant differences in the characteristics of its honey are due to the abundance of the main plants providing pollen. Five main taxons are involved in producing the majority of honeys made in Galicia: Castanea sativa, Rubus, t. Cytisus, Erica and Eucalyptus. In coastal areas there are large amounts of eucalyptus. Inland, the production of honey is characterised by the abundance of three plant species: Castanea Sativa, Erica and Rubus.

The geographical location of Galicia and its specific characteristics result in honeys with their own characteristics which are thus distinguished from those produced in other regions.

One of the most useful analytical tools for establishing the geographical provenance of honeys is a pollen analysis. In light of such an analysis, the specific characteristics of Galician honeys distinguishing them from other honeys are:

| — | the presence of typical and unique combinations of pollens which distinguish these honeys even from those produced in neighbouring regions. These combinations are provided in Annex 1; |
| --- | --- |

—

the presence of typical and unique combinations of pollens which distinguish these honeys even from those produced in neighbouring regions. These combinations are provided in Annex 1;

| --- | --- |

—

the absence or the low proportion (less than 1 %) of pollens from the Labiaceae family and from Lavandula, Rosmarinus, Thymus, Mentha, etc.;

| — | the absence of Hedysarum coronarium, Hypecoum procumbens and Diplotaxis erucoides. |

—

the absence of Hedysarum coronarium, Hypecoum procumbens and Diplotaxis erucoides.

Honey from Galicia thus has several specific characteristics which can be attributed to its natural surroundings. More information on these specific characteristics is given in the relevant paragraphs of the product specification and its Annexes.
