THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Directive 2003/37/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 May 2003 on type approval of agricultural                           or forestry tractors, their trailers and interchangeable towed machinery, together with their systems, components and separate                           technical units and repealing Directive 74/150/EEC(1), and in particular point (a) of Article 19(1) thereof,                        

Whereas:

(1)Directive 2003/37/EC sets up the type-approval system of agricultural and forestry tractors, bringing it in line with the                              rules on type-approval of motor vehicles.

(2)Directive 2000/25/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2000 on action to be taken against the emission                              of gaseous and particulate pollutants by engines intended to power agricultural or forestry tractors and amending Council                              Directive 74/150/EEC(2) is one of the separate directives in the framework of the type-approval system set up by Directive 2003/37/EC. Directive                              2000/25/EC has been amended in order to include several modifications to Directive 97/68/EC of the European Parliament and                              of the Council of 16 December 1997 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to measures against the                              emission of gaseous and particulate pollutants from internal combustion engines to be installed in non-road mobile machinery(3) concerning adaptation to technical progress, introduction of new emission stages, introduction of alternative type approval                              procedures and implementation of flexibility schemes.

(3)In order to take account of those amendments to Directive 2000/25/EC, the corresponding administrative provisions of Directive                              2003/37/EC should be updated.

(4)Annexes I, II and III to Directive 2003/37/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.

(5)The measures provided for in this Directive are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established in Article 20(1)                              of Directive 2003/37/EC,
