Whereas the last subparagraph of Article 4 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 729/70 provides for the financial resources intended to cover the expenditure referred to in Article 1 (2) of that Regulation to be provided by the Member States according to the needs of their paying agencies;
Whereas Article 5a of Regulation (EEC) No 729/70 makes provision for the Community being responsible for all or part of the interest, to take account of any difficulties which some Member States might encounter because of the introduction of the new system;
Whereas in the light of the current situation in the Community it appears advisable to limit the Community budget's responsibility for interest charges to four Member States;

amending Directive 98/53/EC laying down the sampling methods and the methods of analysis for the official control of the levels for certain contaminants in foodstuffs
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 466/2001 of 8 March 2001 setting maximum levels for certain contaminants in foodstuffs(2), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1425/2003(3), fixes specific maximum limits for maize to be subjected to sorting, or other physical treatment, before human consumption or use as an ingredient in foodstuffs.
(2) Sampling plays a crucial part in the precision of the determination of the levels of aflatoxins, which are very heterogeneously distributed in a lot. Commission Directive 98/53/EC(4), as amended by Directive 2002/27/EC(5), should be amended to include specific provisions for maize to be subjected to sorting, or other physical treatment, before human consumption or use as an ingredient in foodstuffs.
(3) It is of major importance that analytical results are reported and interpreted in a uniform way in order to ensure a harmonised enforcement approach across the Union. These interpretation rules should be of application for the analytical result obtained on the sample for official control. In case of analysis for defence or referee purposes, the national rules apply.
(4) Directive 98/53/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
