COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION
of 31 October 2013
amending Decision 2008/866/EC, on emergency measures suspending imports from Peru of certain bivalve molluscs intended for human consumption, as regards its period of application
(notified under document C(2013) 7162)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2013/636/EU)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 28 January 2002 laying down the general principles and requirements of food law, establishing the European Food Safety Authority and laying down procedures in matters of food safety (1), and in particular Article 53(1)(b)(i) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 lays down the general principles governing food and feed in general, and food and feed safety in particular, at Union and national level. It provides for emergency measures where it is evident that food or feed imported from a third country is likely to constitute a serious risk to human health, animal health or the environment, and that such risk cannot be contained satisfactorily by means of measures taken by the Member State(s) concerned.
(2)
Commission Decision 2008/866/EC of 12 November 2008 on emergency measures suspending imports from Peru of certain bivalve molluscs intended for human consumption (2) was adopted following an outbreak of hepatitis A in humans related to the consumption of bivalve molluscs imported from Peru contaminated with hepatitis A virus (HAV). That Decision initially applied until 31 March 2009 but this period of application was extended until 30 November 2013 by Commission Implementing Decision 2012/729/EU of 23 November 2012 amending Decision 2008/866/EC, on emergency measures suspending imports from Peru of certain bivalve molluscs intended for human consumption, as regards its period of application (3).
(3)
The Peruvian Competent Authority presented additional information regarding the corrective measures that have been implemented to address the deficiencies detected in the control system of certain bivalve molluscs. However, a number of outstanding issues remain. In particular, the monitoring programme results for the last year do not include the control of Donax clams (Donax spp.) which was found to be the origin of the outbreak. Therefore, it cannot be concluded that the guarantees provided by the Peruvian Competent Authority to date are sufficient to lift the emergency measure.
(4)
The limit of application of Decision 2008/866/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(5)
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
In Article 5 of Decision 2008/866/EC, the date ‘30 November 2013’ is replaced by the date ‘30 November 2014’.
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 380/2013

amending Regulation (EU) No 1141/2010 as regards the submission of the supplementary complete dossier to the Authority, the other Member States and the Commission
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market and repealing Council Directives 79/117/EEC and 91/414/EEC (1), and in particular Article 19 thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Commission Regulation (EU) No 1141/2010 of 7 December 2010 laying down the procedure for the renewal of the inclusion of a second group of active substances in Annex I to Council Directive 91/414/EEC and establishing the list of those substances (2) provides for the supplementary summary dossier, as updated to take into account additional information requested by the rapporteur Member State, to be submitted by the applicant to the European Food Safety Authority (hereinafter ‘the Authority’), the other Member States and, on request, to the Commission when the renewal assessment report is submitted to the Commission.
(2)
The practice shows that the large majority of dossiers for the approval or renewal of the approval is evaluated by the Authority. To allow the Authority to give its conclusion on the entire risk assessment or on specific points, it is, however, necessary that the supplementary complete dossier is submitted to the Authority in addition to the supplementary summary dossier. The supplementary complete dossier should also be submitted to the Member States. The Commission should have the possibility to request the submission of the supplementary complete dossier.
(3)
Regulation (EU) No 1141/2010 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(4)
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

(1)
According to Article 24(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 589/2008 (2) Member States shall ensure that the eggs are checked at all stages of marketing, which could be read as checking of compliance with each requirement under the Regulation at every stage in the marketing chain.

For example some requirements must be checked at the production site or at the packing station, whilst other requirements must be checked at the retailer stage, as appropriate.
(3)

COUNCIL DECISION
of 17 October 2013
on the position to be adopted, on behalf of the European Union, in the EU-EFTA Joint Committee on common transit concerning the adoption of a Decision amending the Convention of 20 May 1987 on a common transit procedure, as regards the modification of HS codes and package codes
(2013/524/EU)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular the first subparagraph of Article 207(4), in conjunction with Article 218(9), thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1)
Article 15 of the Convention of 20 May 1987 on a common transit procedure (1) (the ‘Convention’) empowers the EU-EFTA Joint Committee on common transit set up by the Convention to recommend and adopt, by decisions, amendments to the Convention and the Appendices thereto.
(2)
On 26 June 2009, the Customs Cooperation Council adopted a Recommendation amending the Harmonised System nomenclature. As a consequence of that Recommendation, on 1 January 2012, the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1006/2011 (2) entered into force and replaced HS code 1701 11 by two new HS codes, namely 1701 13 and 1701 14, as well as HS code 2403 10 by two new HS codes, namely 2403 11 and 2403 19.
(3)
Due to the replacement of HS codes 1701 11 and 2403 10 by Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1006/2011, those codes should also be amended in Annex I (Goods involving higher risk of fraud) to Appendix I to the Convention.
(4)
The United Nations Economic Commission for Europe has issued revision 8.1 of Recommendation No 21 on, inter alia, package codes. It is therefore necessary to adapt the list of package codes contained in Annex A2 to Appendix III to the Convention in accordance with that revision.
(5)
As the package codes format has changed from alphabetic2 (a2) to alphanumeric2 (an2) codes, the Type/Length of the kind of packages (box 31) provided for in Annex A1 to Appendix III to the Convention should also be amended accordingly.
(6)
Therefore, the position of the European Union concerning the proposed amendment should be determined,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The position to be adopted by the European Union in the EU-EFTA Joint Committee on common transit concerning the adoption of Decision No 2/2013 by the EU-EFTA Joint Committee on common transit amending the Convention of 20 May 1987 on a common transit procedure shall be based on the draft Decision attached to this Decision.
Minor changes to the draft Decision may be agreed to by the representatives of the Union in the EU-EFTA Joint Committee on common transit after having duly informed the Council.
Article 2
The Commission shall publish the Decision of the EU-EFTA Joint Committee on common transit referred to in Article 1, once adopted, in the Official Journal of the European Union.
Article 3
The Decision is addressed to the Member States.
Done at Luxembourg, 17 October 2013.
