Commission Regulation (EC) No 436/2001
of 2 March 2001
amending Annex II to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2092/91 on organic production of agricultural products and indications referring thereto on agricultural products and foodstuffs
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2092/91 of 24 June 1991 on organic production of agricultural products and indications referring thereto on agricultural products and foodstuffs(1), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EC) 2020/2000(2), and in particular Article 13, second indent thereof,
Whereas:
(1) In accordance with the procedure provided for in Article 7(4) of Regulation (EEC) No 2092/91, certain Member States have since 1997 submitted information in view of amending certain provisions in Annex II.
(2) Composted household waste and composted mixture of vegetable matter are products which, before the adoption of Regulation (EEC) No 2092/91, were in common use according to the codes of practice on organic farming followed in the Community. These products are currently also available after other fermentations than composting, in particular anaerobic fermentation in view of biogas production. The amendments for these products are urgent in the light of the upcoming agricultural season during which these products could be used, under the restrictive requirements laid down in Annex I, part A, to the Regulation, for fertilising purposes. Anaerobic fermentation in view of biogas production is a process which in principle is in line with the environment protection objectives of organic farming.
(3) It is necessary to correct in several languages the name of the product "basic slag" to cover the same product. It also appeared that this product was not edited in the Portuguese version of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2381/94(3), which established part A of Annex II. Therefore this omission has to be corrected.
(4) The experience with the use of industrial lime from sugar production in organic farming has shown that it is appropriate to permit this use to continue after 31 March 2002.
(5) Many preparations of pyrethrins extracted from Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium contain piperonylbutoxide as synergist. Therefore it is appropriate to strengthen the conditions under which these preparations can be used.
(6) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee referred to in Article 14 of Regulation (EEC) No 2092/91,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Annex II to Regulation (EEC) No 2092/91 shall be amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply forthwith.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 2 March 2001.
COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 356/92 of 10 February 1992 amending Regulation No 136/66/EEC on the establishment of a common organization of the market in oils and fats
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation No 136/66/EEC of 22 September 1966 on the establishment of a common organization of the market in oils and fats (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1720/91 (2), and in particular Article 35 (4) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas the Annex to Regulation No 136/66/EEC lays down descriptions and definitions for olive oils and olive residue oils;
Whereas experience has shown that the definitions of virgin oils present problems in verifying the organoleptic characteristics of these products and do not correspond precisely to the organoleptic assessment criteria defined by the methods adopted by the International Olive Oil Council and which were recently included in Community rules on the characteristics of olive oil and olive residue oils and on the relevant methods of analysis;
Whereas, in addition, for the virgin oils and for the other types of oils referred to in the Annex in question, the definitions should take into account all the characteristics laid down for each of these products by the abovementioned Community rules;
Whereas therefore the definitions given in the Annex to Regulation No 136/66/EEC should be adjusted,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The Annex to Regulation No 136/66/EEC is hereby replaced by the text annexed to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 November 1992. This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

amending the import duties in the cereals sector

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 of 30 June 1992 on the common organisation of the market in cereals(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1666/2000(2),
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1249/96 of 28 June 1996 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 as regards import duties in the cereals sector(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1900/2002(4), and in particular Article 2(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) The import duties in the cereals sector are fixed by Commission Regulation (EC) No 948/2003(5).
(2) Article 2(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1249/96 provides that if during the period of application, the average import duty calculated differs by EUR 5 per tonne from the duty fixed, a corresponding adjustment is to be made. Such a difference has arisen. It is therefore necessary to adjust the import duties fixed in Regulation (EC) No 948/2003,

(Text with EEA relevance)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 July 2002 on the application of international accounting standards (1), and in particular Article 3(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
By Commission Regulation (EC) No 1725/2003 (2) certain international standards and interpretations that were extant at 14 September 2002 were adopted.
(2)
On 2 November 2006, the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) published IFRIC Interpretation 11 IFRS 2 - Group and Treasury Share Transactions, hereinafter ‘IFRIC 11’.

The interpretation was required as, until now, there was no guidance on how share-based payment arrangements in which an entity receives goods or services as consideration for equity instruments of the entity’s parent should be accounted for in the entity’s financial statements.
(3)
The consultation with the Technical Expert Group (TEG) of the European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG) confirms that IFRIC 11 meets the technical criteria for adoption set out in Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002.

Article 2
Each company shall apply IFRIC 11 as set out in the Annex to this Regulation as from the commencement date of its 2008 financial year at the latest, except for companies with a January or February commencement date which shall apply IFRIC 11 as from the commencement date of the 2009 financial year at the latest.
Article 3
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
