# of 28 May 2014

# entering a name in the register of protected designations of origin and protected geographical indications (Coppa de Corse/Coppa                        de Corse — Coppa di Corsica (PDO))                     

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 November 2012 on quality                           schemes for agricultural products and foodstuffs(1), and in particular Article 52(2) thereof,                        

Whereas:

(1)Pursuant to Article 50(2)(a) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012, France's application to register the name ‘Coppa de Corse’/‘Coppa                              de Corse — Coppa di Corsica’ was published in the *Official Journal of the European Union* (2).

(2)As no statement of opposition under Article 51 of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012 has been received by the Commission, the name                              ‘Coppa de Corse’/‘Coppa de Corse — Coppa di Corsica’ should therefore be entered in the register.

(3)In their letter accompanying the application received on 26 April 2012 the French authorities notified the Commission that                              the undertakings L'Aziana Charcuterie Corse Nunzi Sauveur, Orezza Charcuterie La Castagniccia, Charcuterie Costa & Fils, Charcuterie                              Fontana, Salaisons Joseph Pantaloni, Charcuterie Passoni, Salaisons Sampiero, Salaisons réunies and Etablissements Semidei                              had been legally marketing the product sold under the name ‘Coppa de Corse’/‘Coppa de Corse — Coppa di Corsica’, using this                              name continuously for at least five years, and that this point had been noted in the national opposition procedure. An adjustment                              period, with effect from the date on which the application was lodged with the Commission, was therefore granted to those                              undertakings under Article 5(6) of Council Regulation (EC) No 510/2006(3), which was in force when the application was submitted.

(4)Moreover, as the undertakings met the requirements laid down in the second subparagraph of Article 13(3) of Regulation (EC)                              No 510/2006, the French authorities asked the Commission in the same letter to set a transitional period under that article                              to allow the undertakings to make legal use of the sales name after registration.

(5)Regulation (EC) No 510/2006 has now been replaced by Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012, in force since 3 January 2013. The requirements                              laid down in the second subparagraph of Article 13(3) of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006 have been incorporated in Article 15(1)                              of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012.

(6)As the undertakings L'Aziana Charcuterie Corse Nunzi Sauveur, Orezza Charcuterie La Castagniccia, Charcuterie Costa & Fils,                              Charcuterie Fontana, Salaisons Joseph Pantaloni, Charcuterie Passoni, Salaisons Sampiero, Salaisons réunies and Etablissements                              Semidei meet the requirements laid down in Article 15(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012, they should be granted a five-year                              transitional period in which to use the name ‘Coppa de Corse’/‘Coppa de Corse — Coppa di Corsica’. However, as they have already                              benefited from the national adjustment period, the five years should take effect from the date on which the application was                              lodged with the Commission.

(7)The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Agricultural Product Quality Policy                              Committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
