Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

Whereas:

Catch limits for sandeel in Union waters of ICES zones IIa, IIIa and IV were set at zero in Annex IA to Council Regulation (EU) No 43/2014 (1), pending advice from the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES).

(2)

ICES advice on the stock has been available since 21 February 2014, and it is now possible to set a TAC for sandeel in this area, distributed in seven management areas in order to avoid local depletion.

| (3) | Fishing opportunities for Union vessels in Norwegian and Faroese waters and for Norwegian and Faroese vessels in Union waters, and the conditions of access to fishery resources in each other’s waters, are established each year in the light of consultations on fishing rights held in accordance with the bilateral agreements on fisheries with Norway (2) and the Faroe Islands (3), respectively. Pending the conclusion of those consultations on the arrangements for 2014, Regulation (EU) No 43/2014 fixed provisional fishing opportunities for certain stocks of blue whiting. On 12 March 2014, the consultations with Norway and the Faroe Islands were concluded, including those related to blue whiting. |

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 316/2014

of 21 March 2014

on the application of Article 101(3) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union to categories of technology transfer agreements

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation No 19/65/EEC of the Council of 2 March 1965 on application of Article 85(3) of the Treaty to certain categories of agreements and concerted practices (1), and in particular Article 1 thereof,

Having published a draft of this Regulation,

After consulting the Advisory Committee on Restrictive Practices and Dominant Positions,

Whereas:

| (1) | Regulation No 19/65/EEC empowers the Commission to apply Article 101(3) of the Treaty by regulation to certain categories of technology transfer agreements and corresponding concerted practices to which only two undertakings are party which fall within Article 101(1) of the Treaty. |
| --- | --- |

(1)

Regulation No 19/65/EEC empowers the Commission to apply Article 101(3) of the Treaty by regulation to certain categories of technology transfer agreements and corresponding concerted practices to which only two undertakings are party which fall within Article 101(1) of the Treaty.

| (2) | Pursuant to Regulation No 19/65/EEC, the Commission has, in particular, adopted Commission Regulation (EC) No 772/2004 (2). Regulation (EC) No 772/2004 defines categories of technology transfer agreements which the Commission regarded as normally satisfying the conditions laid down in Article 101(3) of the Treaty. In view of the overall positive experience with the application of that Regulation, which expires on 30 April 2014, and taking into account further experience acquired since its adoption, it is appropriate to adopt a new block exemption regulation. |

Pursuant to Regulation No 19/65/EEC, the Commission has, in particular, adopted Commission Regulation (EC) No 772/2004 (2). Regulation (EC) No 772/2004 defines categories of technology transfer agreements which the Commission regarded as normally satisfying the conditions laid down in Article 101(3) of the Treaty. In view of the overall positive experience with the application of that Regulation, which expires on 30 April 2014, and taking into account further experience acquired since its adoption, it is appropriate to adopt a new block exemption regulation.

| (3) | This Regulation should meet the two requirements of ensuring effective protection of competition and providing adequate legal security for undertakings. The pursuit of those objectives should take account of the need to simplify administrative supervision and the legislative framework to as great an extent as possible. |

(3)

This Regulation should meet the two requirements of ensuring effective protection of competition and providing adequate legal security for undertakings. The pursuit of those objectives should take account of the need to simplify administrative supervision and the legislative framework to as great an extent as possible.

| (4) | Technology transfer agreements concern the licensing of technology rights. Such agreements will usually improve economic efficiency and be pro-competitive as they can reduce duplication of research and development, strengthen the incentive for the initial research and development, spur incremental innovation, facilitate diffusion and generate product market competition. |

| (5) | The likelihood that such efficiency-enhancing and pro-competitive effects will outweigh any anti-competitive effects due to restrictions contained in technology transfer agreements depends on the degree of market power of the undertakings concerned and, therefore, on the extent to which those undertakings face competition from undertakings owning substitute technologies or undertakings producing substitute products. |

| (6) | This Regulation should cover only technology transfer agreements between a licensor and a licensee. It should cover such agreements even if the agreement contains conditions relating to more than one level of trade, for instance requiring the licensee to set up a particular distribution system and specifying the obligations the licensee must or may impose on resellers of the products produced under the licence. However, such conditions and obligations should comply with the competition rules applicable to supply and distribution agreements set out in Commission Regulation (EU) No 330/2010 (3). Supply and distribution agreements concluded between a licensee and buyers of its contract products should not be exempted by this Regulation. |

| (7) | This Regulation should only apply to agreements where the licensor permits the licensee and/or one or more of its sub-contractors to exploit the licensed technology rights, possibly after further research and development by the licensee and/or its sub-contractors, for the purpose of producing goods or services. It should not apply to licensing in the context of research and development agreements which are covered by Commission Regulation (EU) No 1217/2010 (4) or to licensing in the context of specialisation agreements which are covered by Commission Regulation (EU) No 1218/2010 (5). It should also not apply to agreements, the purpose of which is the mere reproduction and distribution of software copyright protected products as such agreements do not concern the licensing of a technology to produce but are more akin to distribution agreements. Nor should it apply to agreements to set up technology pools, that is to say, agreements for the pooling of technologies with the purpose of licensing them to third parties, or to agreements whereby the pooled technology is licensed out to those third parties. |

| (8) | For the application of Article 101(3) of the Treaty by regulation, it is not necessary to define those technology transfer agreements that are capable of falling within Article 101(1) of the Treaty. In the individual assessment of agreements pursuant to Article 101(1), account has to be taken of several factors, and in particular the structure and the dynamics of the relevant technology and product markets. |

| (9) | The benefit of the block exemption established by this Regulation should be limited to those agreements which can be assumed with sufficient certainty to satisfy the conditions of Article 101(3) of the Treaty. In order to attain the benefits and objectives of technology transfer, this Regulation should not only cover the transfer of technology as such but also other provisions contained in technology transfer agreements if, and to the extent that, those provisions are directly related to the production or sale of the contract products. |

| (10) | For technology transfer agreements between competitors it can be presumed that, where the combined share of the relevant markets accounted for by the parties does not exceed 20 % and the agreements do not contain certain severely anti-competitive restrictions, they generally lead to an improvement in production or distribution and allow consumers a fair share of the resulting benefits. |

| (11) | For technology transfer agreements between non-competitors it can be presumed that, where the individual share of the relevant markets accounted for by each of the parties does not exceed 30 % and the agreements do not contain certain severely anti-competitive restrictions, they generally lead to an improvement in production or distribution and allow consumers a fair share of the resulting benefits. |

If the applicable market-share threshold is exceeded on one or more product or technology markets, the block exemption should not apply to the agreement for the relevant markets concerned.

| (13) | There can be no presumption that, above those market-share thresholds, technology transfer agreements fall within the scope of Article 101(1) of the Treaty. For instance, exclusive licensing agreements between non-competing undertakings often fall outside the scope of Article 101(1). There can also be no presumption that, above those market-share thresholds, technology transfer agreements falling within the scope of Article 101(1) will not satisfy the conditions for exemption. However, it can also not be presumed that they will usually give rise to objective advantages of such a character and size as to compensate for the disadvantages which they create for competition. |

| (14) | This Regulation should not exempt technology transfer agreements containing restrictions which are not indispensable to the improvement of production or distribution. In particular, technology transfer agreements containing certain severely anti-competitive restrictions, such as the fixing of prices charged to third parties, should be excluded from the benefit of the block exemption established by this Regulation irrespective of the market shares of the undertakings concerned. In the case of such hardcore restrictions the whole agreement should be excluded from the benefit of the block exemption. |

Article 2

Exemption

1.   Pursuant to Article 101(3) of the Treaty and subject to the provisions of this Regulation, Article 101(1) of the Treaty shall not apply to technology transfer agreements.

2.   The exemption provided for in paragraph 1 shall apply to the extent that technology transfer agreements contain restrictions of competition falling within the scope of Article 101(1) of the Treaty. The exemption shall apply for as long as the licensed technology rights have not expired, lapsed or been declared invalid or, in the case of know-how, for as long as the know-how remains secret. However, where know-how becomes publicly known as a result of action by the licensee, the exemption shall apply for the duration of the agreement.

3.   The exemption provided for in paragraph 1 shall also apply to provisions, in technology transfer agreements, which relate to the purchase of products by the licensee or which relate to the licensing or assignment of other intellectual property rights or know-how to the licensee, if, and to the extent that, those provisions are directly related to the production or sale of the contract products.

Article 3

Market-share thresholds

1.   Where the undertakings party to the agreement are competing undertakings, the exemption provided for in Article 2 shall apply on condition that the combined market share of the parties does not exceed 20 % on the relevant market(s).

Article 6

Withdrawal in individual cases

1.   The Commission may withdraw the benefit of this Regulation, pursuant to Article 29(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1/2003, where it finds in any particular case that a technology transfer agreement to which the exemption provided for in Article 2 of this Regulation applies nevertheless has effects which are incompatible with Article 101(3) of the Treaty, and in particular where:

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 318/2014

of 27 March 2014

amending Annexes II and III to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards maximum residue levels for fenarimol, metaflumizone and teflubenzuron in or on certain products

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

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

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 February 2005 on maximum residue levels of pesticides in or on food and feed of plant and animal origin and amending Council Directive 91/414/EEC (1), and in particular Article 14(1)(a) and Article 49(2) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | For fenarimol maximum residue levels (MRLs) were set in Annex II and Part B of Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. For metaflumizone and teflubenzuron MRLs were set in Part A of Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. |
| --- | --- |

(1)

For fenarimol maximum residue levels (MRLs) were set in Annex II and Part B of Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. For metaflumizone and teflubenzuron MRLs were set in Part A of Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005.

| (2) | In the context of a procedure for the authorisation of the use of a plant protection product containing the active substance metaflumizone on cucurbits (edible peel), melons, watermelons, broccoli, cauliflower, Chinese cabbage, lettuce and other salad plants, herbs, beans (with pods), peas (with pods), globe artichokes and cotton seed, an application was made in accordance with Article 6(1) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 for modification of the existing MRLs. |
| --- | --- |

(2)

In the context of a procedure for the authorisation of the use of a plant protection product containing the active substance metaflumizone on cucurbits (edible peel), melons, watermelons, broccoli, cauliflower, Chinese cabbage, lettuce and other salad plants, herbs, beans (with pods), peas (with pods), globe artichokes and cotton seed, an application was made in accordance with Article 6(1) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 for modification of the existing MRLs.

| (3) | As regards teflubenzuron, such an application was made for crops belonging to the Solanaceae group and cucurbits (edible peel). |
| --- | --- |

(3)

As regards teflubenzuron, such an application was made for crops belonging to the Solanaceae group and cucurbits (edible peel).

| (4) | In accordance with Article 6(2) and (4) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 an application was submitted for fenarimol on apples, cherries, peaches, grapes strawberries, bananas, tomatoes, cucumbers, melons, pumpkins and watermelons. The applicant claims that the authorised uses of fenarimol on such crops in several third countries lead to residues exceeding the MRLs in Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 and that higher MRLs are necessary to avoid trade barriers for the importation of these crops. |
| --- | --- |

(4)

In accordance with Article 6(2) and (4) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 an application was submitted for fenarimol on apples, cherries, peaches, grapes strawberries, bananas, tomatoes, cucumbers, melons, pumpkins and watermelons. The applicant claims that the authorised uses of fenarimol on such crops in several third countries lead to residues exceeding the MRLs in Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 and that higher MRLs are necessary to avoid trade barriers for the importation of these crops.

| (5) | In accordance with Article 8 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, these applications were evaluated by the Member States concerned and the evaluation reports were forwarded to the Commission. |
| --- | --- |

(5)

In accordance with Article 8 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, these applications were evaluated by the Member States concerned and the evaluation reports were forwarded to the Commission.

| (6) | The European Food Safety Authority, hereinafter 'the Authority' assessed the applications and the evaluation reports, examining in particular the risks to the consumer and, where relevant, to animals and gave reasoned opinions on the proposed MRLs (2). It forwarded these opinions to the Commission and the Member States and made them available to the public. |

The European Food Safety Authority, hereinafter 'the Authority' assessed the applications and the evaluation reports, examining in particular the risks to the consumer and, where relevant, to animals and gave reasoned opinions on the proposed MRLs (2). It forwarded these opinions to the Commission and the Member States and made them available to the public.

| (7) | The Authority concluded in its reasoned opinions that, as regards the use of fenarimol on peaches, grapes, strawberries, bananas, tomatoes and watermelons and the use of metaflumizone on melons, watermelons, herbs and salad plants (except lettuce), the submitted data are not sufficient to set new MRLs. As regards the use of metaflumizone on scarole, the Authority does not recommend setting the proposed MRL since a risk for consumers cannot be excluded. The existing MRLs should therefore remain unchanged. |

As regards the use of metaflumizone on scarole, the Authority does not recommend setting the proposed MRL since a risk for consumers cannot be excluded. The existing MRLs should therefore remain unchanged.

| (8) | As regards the use of metaflumizone on broccoli and lettuce, the Authority recommends setting lower MRLs than the ones proposed by the applicant. |
| --- | --- |

(8)

As regards the use of metaflumizone on broccoli and lettuce, the Authority recommends setting lower MRLs than the ones proposed by the applicant.

| (9) | As regards the use of teflubenzuron on Solanaceae crops and cucurbits (edible peel), the Authority identified chronic consumer intake concerns. However, the main contributor to the total exposure is apple. The Authority recommends lowering the MRL set for apples when increasing the MRLs for the above crops. Since such MRL was set to accommodate an import tolerance request based on authorised uses in Brazil, the applicant has been contacted in order to avoid trade barriers. The applicant proposed a fall-back MRL of 0,5 mg/kg, which is sufficient to accommodate the uses authorised in Brazil. As a high level of consumer protection is maintained, it is appropriate to set that MRL to 0,5 mg/kg. |

| (10) | As regards all other applications, the Authority concluded that all requirements with respect to data were met and that the modifications to the MRLs requested by the applicants were acceptable with regard to consumer safety on the basis of a consumer exposure assessment for 27 specific European consumer groups. It took into account the most recent information on the toxicological properties of the substances. Neither the lifetime exposure to those substances via consumption of all food products that may contain them, nor the short-term exposure due to high consumption of the relevant crops and products showed that there is a risk that the acceptable daily intake (ADI) or the acute reference dose (ARfD) is exceeded. |

(7)

This Regulation foresees the possibility for the Agency to charge fees for certification tasks which are not mentioned in the Annex to this Regulation, but which fall within the remits of Regulation (EC) No 216/2008.

| (8) | The applicant should have the choice to request a financial quote of the estimated amount to be paid for the certification task or service. The criteria for determining the amount to be paid should be clear, uniform and public. Where it is not possible to accurately determine this amount in advance, transparent principles for assessing the amount to be paid during the provision of the certification task or service should be established by the Agency. |

Appropriate remedies in cases of non-payment should be laid down such as the termination of the related application processes, invalidation of related approvals, prevention of any further provision of certification tasks or services to the same applicant, and recovery of the outstanding amount through available means.

| (11) | The industry should enjoy good financial visibility and be able to anticipate the cost of the fees and charges it will be required to pay. At the same time, it is necessary to ensure a balance between overall expenditure incurred by the Agency in carrying out certification tasks and services provided, and overall income from the fees and charges it levies. In accordance with provisions of the Framework Financial Regulation (3), fees and charges should be set at the level such to avoid a deficit or a significant accumulation of surplus. It should therefore be mandatory to review the levels of fees and charges if a significant deficit or surplus becomes recurrent on the basis of the Agency’s financial results and forecasts. |

| (13) | The tariffs set out in this Regulation should be based on Agency’s forecasts as regards its workload and related costs. The revision of the tariffs should follow a procedure that permits amendment without undue delay based on the Agency’s experience gained from the application of this Regulation, continuous resource and working methodology monitoring and associated efficiency gains, and the continuous assessment of the financial needs. In this context it should be noted that the Agency will, no later than January 2016, be obliged to cover, from the fees and charges income, contributions to the pension schemes of its staff financed through the Agency’s fees and charges. The fees and charges will need to be adjusted to meet that financial requirement. |

In principle, the process for validation by the Agency of certificates issued by a third country with which the Union has an appropriate agreement is described in these agreements and should result in a different workload from the process required for certification activities by the Agency. |
