(notified under document number C(2008) 8135)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2008/973/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 2002/56/EC of 13 June 2002 on the marketing of seed potatoes (1), and in particular the second subparagraph of Article 21(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Directive 2002/56/EC provides that, with effect from certain dates, Member States may no longer determine for themselves the equivalence of seed potatoes harvested in third countries with seed potatoes harvested within the Community and complying with that Directive.
(2)
However, as work to establish a Community equivalence for seed potatoes from all the third countries concerned had not been completed, Directive 2002/56/EC permitted Member States to extend until 31 March 2008 the validity of equivalence decisions which they had already taken for seed potatoes from certain third countries not covered by a Community equivalence. This date was chosen by reference to the end of the period where seed potatoes are placed on the market.
(3)
Since this work still has not been completed and as a new marketing season will start by the end of the year 2008, it is necessary to authorise Member States to extend the validity of their national equivalence decisions.
(4)
Directive 2002/56/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 Seeds and Propagating Material for Agriculture, Horticulture and Forestry,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
In the first subparagraph of Article 21(3) of Directive 2002/56/EC, ‘31 March 2008’ is replaced by ‘31 March 2011’.
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

(3) Community assistance is conditional on the fulfilment of essential elements, and in particular on the respect of the commitments contained in the Europe Agreements and on progress towards fulfilment of the Copenhagen criteria; where an essential element is lacking, the Council, acting by a qualified majority on a proposal from the Commission, may take appropriate steps with regard to any pre-accession assistance.
(4) The Luxembourg European Council decided that the implementation of the Accession Partnership and progress in adopting the acquis will be examined in the Europe Agreement bodies.
(5) The 2001 Commission's regular report presents an objective analysis on Latvia's preparations for membership and identifies a number of priority areas for further work.
(6) In order to prepare for membership, Latvia should continue to update its national programme for the adoption of the acquis; this programme should set out a timetable for achieving the priorities and intermediate objectives established in the Accession Partnership.
(7) Latvia needs to ensure that the appropriate legal and administrative structures needed for the programming, coordination, management, control and evaluation of Community pre-accession funds are in place,
