amending Regulation (EC) No 206/2009 on the introduction into the Community of personal consignments of products of animal origin, as regards information to be provided in the posters to travellers and to the general public

Having regard to Council Directive 2002/99/EC of 16 December 2002 laying down animal health rules governing the production, processing, distribution and introduction of products of animal origin for human consumption (1), and in particular the third indent of Article 8(5) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Commission Regulation (EC) No 206/2009 (2) lays down rules concerning the introduction into the Union of personal consignments of products of animal origin of a non-commercial nature which form part of travellers’ luggage, or are delivered to private persons in small amounts also as a result of remote orders (for example by mail, by telephone or via the internet).

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 169 in conjunction with Article 218(9) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2894/94 of 28 November 1994 concerning arrangements for implementing the Agreement on the European Economic Area (1), and in particular Article 1(3) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1)
The Agreement on the European Economic Area (2) (‘the EEA Agreement’) entered into force on 1 January 1994.
(2)
Pursuant to Article 98 of the EEA Agreement, the EEA Joint Committee may decide to amend, inter alia, Protocol 31 to the EEA Agreement.
(3)
Protocol 31 to the EEA Agreement contains provisions and arrangements concerning cooperation in specific fields outside the four freedoms.
(4)
It is appropriate to extend the cooperation of the Contracting Parties to the EEA Agreement to include Regulation (EU) No 254/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3).
(5)
It is appropriate that the participation of EFTA States in the activities resulting from Regulation (EU) No 254/2014 commence from 1 January 2014, irrespective of when the EEA Joint Committee Decision annexed to this Decision is adopted or whether the fulfilment of constitutional requirements for this EEA Joint Committee Decision, if any, is notified after 10 July 2014.
(6)
Entities established in the EFTA States should be entitled to participate in activities which start before the entry into force of the EEA Joint Committee Decision annexed to this Decision. The costs incurred for such activities, the implementation of which starts after 1 January 2014, may be considered eligible under the same conditions as those applicable to costs incurred by entities established in the Union Member States provided that the EEA Joint Committee Decision enters into force before the end of the action concerned.
(7)
Protocol 31 to the EEA Agreement should therefore be amended accordingly.
(8)
The position of the Union within the EEA Joint Committee should therefore be based on the attached draft decision,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The position to be adopted, on behalf of the European Union, within the EEA Joint Committee on the proposed amendment to Protocol 31 to the EEA Agreement, on cooperation in specific fields outside the four freedoms, shall be based on the draft decision of the EEA Joint Committee attached to this Decision.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 1034/2013
of 24 October 2013
approving aluminium phosphide releasing phosphine as an active substance for use in biocidal products for product type 20
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2012 concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products (1), and in particular the third subparagraph of Article 89(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Commission Regulation (EC) No 1451/2007 (2) establishes a list of active substances to be assessed, with a view to their possible inclusion in Annex I, IA or IB to Directive 98/8/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (3). That list includes aluminium phosphide.
(2)
Aluminium phosphide has been evaluated in accordance with Article 11(2) of Directive 98/8/EC for use in product-type 23, products for the control of other vertebrates, as defined in Annex V to that Directive, which corresponds to product-type 20 as defined in Annex V to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.
(3)
Germany was designated as Rapporteur Member State and submitted the competent authority report, together with a recommendation, to the Commission on 23 July 2010 in accordance with Article 14(4) and (6) of Regulation (EC) No 1451/2007.
(4)
The competent authority report was reviewed by the Member States and the Commission. In accordance with Article 15(4) of Regulation (EC) No 1451/2007, the findings of the review were incorporated, within the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products on 27 September 2013, in an assessment report.
(5)
It appears from that report that biocidal products used for product-type 23 and containing aluminium phosphide may be expected to satisfy the requirements laid down in Article 5 of Directive 98/8/EC.
(6)
It is therefore appropriate to approve aluminium phosphide releasing phosphine for use in biocidal products for product-type 20.
(7)
Since the evaluation did not address nanomaterials, the approval should not cover such materials pursuant to Article 4(4) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.
(8)
A reasonable period should be allowed to elapse before an active substance is approved, in order to permit Member States, interested parties, and the Commission where appropriate, to prepare themselves to meet the new requirements entailed.
(9)
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Aluminium phosphide releasing phosphine shall be approved as an active substance for use in biocidal products for product-type 20, subject to the specifications and conditions set out in the Annex.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth 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.
