Council Regulation (EC) No 1105/2001
of 30 May 2001
amending Regulation (EEC) No 1911/91 on the application of the provisions of Community law to the Canary Islands
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, and in particular the first subparagraph of Article 25(4) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission(1),
Having regard to the Opinion of the European Parliament(2),
Having regard to the Opinion of the Economic and Social Committee(3),
Whereas:
(1) Article 5(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 1911/91(4) established a transitional period which authorised the Spanish authorities to impose a tax on production and imports (APIM) on all products entering or produced in the Canary Islands.
(2) Article 6(1) of that Regulation established a transitional period to introduce progressively the Common Customs Tariff (CCT) in the Canary Islands.
(3) Both transitional periods expired on 31 December 2000.
(4) In October and November 2000 the Spanish authorities requested that the said transitional periods and the measures introduced on the basis of Regulation (EEC) No 1911/91 be extended.
(5) In July and October 2000, the Spanish authorities gave notification of a new tax which would apply to the Canary Islands and is intended to compensate for the handicaps referred to in Article 299(2) of the Treaty.
(6) The request contained documentation which indicated that even though the economic situation on the Canary Islands had improved during the transitional period, the full integration of the region would lead to a decline in industrial and commercial activity, and thus in employment, in the different sectors concerned.
(7) However, in the short period available it was not possible to evaluate the full impact of the termination or modification of the existing measures on the economic and social situation of the Canary Islands.
(8) In order to ensure that the economic operators concerned are afforded a certain continuity in the legal framework affecting their business, it is appropriate to extend the said transitional periods by one year.
(9) Once the abovementioned evaluation has been completed, the Commission will make, if necessary, a new proposal taking into account the aims of Article 299(2) of the Treaty,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

Whereas experience has shown that the number of persons qualifying for the production aid for olive oil and the number of checks to be carried out prior to the granting thereof are very large, resulting in a substantial amount of control work ; whereas, therefore, for reasons of sound administrative management, provision should be made for granting the production aid to small producers on a flat-rate basis,

COMMISSION DECISION
of 13 September 1984
authorizing France to confirm rights acquired before 1 May 1984 to carry out plantings of vines in areas intended for the production of certain quality wines psr
(Only the French text is authentic)
(84/460/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 337/79 of 5 February 1979 on the common organization of the market in wine (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1208/84 (2), and in particular Article 30f thereof,
Whereas, subject to a number of exceptions, Regulation (EEC) No 337/79 prohibited all new plantings of vines up to 31 August 1990; whereas Article 30f nevertheless provides that rights for new vine-planting on areas intended for the production of quality wines psr acquired before 1 May 1984 may be exercised in certain circumstances; whereas the said Article provides in particular that, from 1 September 1984, such rights may be exercised subject to confirmation from the Member State concerned, this confirmation being confined to quality wines psr for which an authorization has been granted by the Commission under the procedure provided for in Article 67 of Regulation (EEC) No 337/79;
Whereas on 4 July 1984, the French Government requested authorization, on the basis of the said Article 30f, for a number of quality wines psr;
Whereas an examination of this request has shown that the planting authorizations which were granted by the French Government for certain quality wines psr on 25 April 1983 and 7 March 1984, constitute administrative acts which did in fact create rights before 1 May 1984 which qualify for confirmation within the meaning of the said Article 30f; whereas, moreover, in the light of the situation regarding the quality wines psr in question, the confirmation of these rights is not likely to disturb the balance of the wine market;
Whereas, on the other hand, no individual decisions have yet been taken concerning requests submitted for the 1984/85 wine year; whereas, therefore, these requests could not be taken into consideration unless a request with a view to the application of the second subparagraph of Article 30 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 337/79, accompanied by the supporting documents required, were submitted by the French Government;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Wine,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
France is hereby authorized to confirm the authorizations for planting on areas intended for the production of quality wines psr which it granted on 25 April 1983 and 7 March 1984.
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the French Republic.

COUNCIL DECISION
of 15 July 2008
amending Decision 2006/493/EC laying down the amount of Community support for rural development for the period from 1 January 2007 to 31 December 2013, its annual breakdown and the minimum amount to be concentrated in regions eligible under the Convergence Objective

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1698/2005 of 20 September 2005 on support for rural development by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) (1), and in particular Article 69(1) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas:
(1)
Council Decision 2006/493/EC (2) lays down the amount of Community support for rural development for the period from 1 January 2007 to 31 December 2013, its annual breakdown and the minimum amount to be concentrated in regions eligible under the Convergence Objective.
(2)
Since the Budgetary Authority has decided to transfer certain commitment appropriations for Community support for rural development under Regulation (EC) No 1698/2005 which were not used in 2007, in accordance with paragraph 48 of the Interinstitutional Agreement between the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on budgetary discipline and sound financial management (3), Decision 2006/493/EC should be amended in order to reallocate those appropriations to the period from 1 January 2008 to 31 December 2013.
(3)
Decision 2006/493/EC should therefore be amended accordingly,
HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:
Article 1
The Annex to Decision 2006/493/EC is replaced by the text in the Annex to this Decision.
