repealing Decision 2006/464/EC on provisional emergency measures to prevent the introduction into and the spread within the Community of Dryocosmus kuriphilus Yasumatsu
(notified under document C(2014) 6566)
(2014/690/EU)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Directive 2000/29/EC of 8 May 2000 on protective measures against the introduction into the Community of organisms harmful to plants or plant products and against their spread within the Community (1), and in particular the fourth sentence of Article 16(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
The measures set out by Commission Decision 2006/464/EC (2) did not prevent the spread of Dryocosmus kuriphilus Yasumatsu (oriental chestnut gall wasp) as appears from the yearly surveys carried out by the Member States pursuant to that Decision. Those surveys further show that Dryocosmus kuriphilus Yasumatsu is widely spread in a large part of its potential area of establishment within the Union territory. In addition, the conditions for movement of susceptible plants set out in Decision 2006/464/EC are not feasible and appropriate for that large part of the Union territory.
(2)
Decision 2006/464/EC should therefore be repealed.
(3)
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plant Health,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
Decision 2006/464/EC is repealed.
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

COUNCIL REGULATION (EU) No 1331/2013
of 10 December 2013
adjusting, from 1 July 2012, the rate of contribution to the pension scheme of officials and other servants of the European Union
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to the Staff Regulations of Officials and the Conditions of Employment of Other Servants of the European Communities (‘Staff Regulations’) laid down by Regulation (EEC, Euratom, ECSC) No 259/68 of the Council (1), and in particular Article 83a thereof and Annex XII thereto,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1)
In accordance with Article 13 of Annex XII to the Staff Regulations, Eurostat submitted a report on the 2012 actuarial assessment of the pension scheme updating the parameters referred to in that Annex. According to this assessment, the rate of contribution required to maintain actuarial balance of the pension scheme would be 9,9 % of the basic salary.
(2)
Under Article 2(1) of Annex XII to the Staff Regulations, the adjustment cannot lead to a contribution that is more than one percentage point above or below the valid rate of the previous year (11,6 %).
(3)
In the interests of actuarial balance of the pension scheme of Officials and other Servants of the Union, and taking into account the 2011 and 2012 actuarial assessments, the Council considers that the rate of contribution should be adjusted to 10,6 % of the basic salary.
(4)
However, in the light of recent and future judgments in the cases on the 2011 and 2012 adjustment of salaries and pensions and in the case on the 2011 adjustment of the rate of contribution to the pension scheme, the result of this adjustment may be subject to change. The implementation of those judgments may have an impact on the calculation of the rates of contribution for the years 2012 and 2013 and thus require the Council to re-adjust the said rates of contribution with retroactive effect. Where applicable, this may lead to a recovery of overpaid sums from staff,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
With effect from 1 July 2012, the rate of the contribution referred to in Article 83(2) of the Staff Regulations shall be 10,6 %.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
