Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 72/159/EEC of 17 April 1972 on the modernization of farms (1), as last amended by Directive 81/528/EEC (2), and in particular Article 18 (3) thereof,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 4135/86 of 22 December 1986 on common rules for imports of certain textile products originating in Yugoslavia (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 71/91 (2), and in particular Article 8 (3) thereof,
Whereas, by Regulation (EEC) No 4135/86, the importation of textile products originating in Yugoslavia was made subject to quantitative limitation and allocation among the Member States and to common rules for authorization;
Whereas trade fairs are to be held, as in previous years, in Berlin in 1991, at which Yugoslavia among other exporting countries is expected to participate; whereas the existing shares of Community quotas allocated to the Federal Republic of Germany may again be insufficient to meet the requirements of the trade fairs;
Whereas it is therefore necessary again this year to open supplementary quotas for the Berlin Trade Fairs and to allocate these to the Federal Republic of Germany;
Whereas it is desirable that import authorizations should be issued in accordance with the requirements on origin specified in Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 4135/86;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Textile Committee - Yugoslavia set up by Regulation (EEC) No 4135/86,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: Article 1
In addition to the quantitative limits on imports established by Regulation (EEC) No 4135/86 supplementary quotas as set out in the Annex hereto shall be opened in respect of the Berlin Trade Fairs to be held in 1991 and shall be allocated to the Federal Republic of Germany. Article 2
1. The authorities of the Federal Republic of Germany shall authorize imports, not exceeding the supplementary quotas referred to in Article 1, only in respect of such contracts signed in Berlin during the Berlin Trade Fair as are recognized by those authorities as being eligible, provided that products covered by such approved contracts are placed on board for exportation to the Federal Republic of Germany in Yugoslavia after 15 October 1991.
2. The period of validity of import authorizations or equivalent documents issued in accordance with paragraph 1 shall not extend beyond 31 December 1992.
3. The Commission shall be informed no later than 31 December 1991 of the total quantities covered by contracts authorized under paragraph 1. Article 3
Importation of the textile products covered by authorization given in accordance with Article 2 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 4135/86. Article 4
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities. This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION DECISION of 16 February 1994 drawing up a list of third countries from which the Member States authorize imports of fresh poultrymeat (94/85/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 91/494/EEC of 26 June 1991 on animal health conditions governing intra-Community trade in and imports from third countries of fresh poultrymeat (1), as amended by Directive 92/116/EEC (2), and in particular Article 9 thereof,
Whereas the countries listed in the Annex to this Decision which traditionally supply the Member States, have been requested to show, through the provision of written assurances supported by appropriate documentation or as a result of on-the-spot inspections, that they satisfy the requirements of the Community;
Whereas these assurances shall be examined by the Standing Veterinary Committee;
Whereas this list applies without prejudice to Commission Decision 93/342/EEC (3) which laid down the criteria to classify third countries with regard to avian influenza and Newcastle disease;
Whereas it may also be necessary in certain cases to specify the parts of countries from which imports will be authorized;
Whereas this list can be amended at any time to take into account new information or new situations; whereas the listing of any country shall be reviewed at any time when further information, in particular resulting from on-the-spot inspections, indicates that conditions in the third country concerned may have changed or that previously received information was incomplete, inexact or inaccurate;
Whereas, although the list of third countries forms the basis of the Community arrangements applicable to imports from third countries laid down in Directive 91/494/EEC, other measures, particularly concerning specific animal health conditions, public health requirements, residue plans and certification will have to be taken into account in order to achieve complete harmonization of the conditions for importation of fresh poultrymeat;
Whereas, pending the adoption by the Commission of the animal health certification for importation of fresh poultrymeat from the countries specified in this list, Member States may continue to apply, on importation, their animal health requirements in force on 1 January 1994;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Veterinary Committee,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The Member States shall authorize imports of fresh poultrymeat in accordance with the list in the Annex.

COMMISSION DECISION of 12 January 1996 amending Decisions 93/196/EEC and 93/197/EEC concerning animal health certificates for imports of equidae for slaughter, registered equidae and equidae for breeding and production, with regard to piroplasmosis (Text with EEA relevance) (96/82/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 90/426/EEC of 26 June 1990 on animal health conditions governing the movement and imports from third countries of equidae (1), as last amended by the Act of Accession of Austria, Finland and Sweden, and in particular Articles 15 and 16 thereof,
Whereas the health conditions and veterinary certification for imports of equidae for slaughter are laid down in Commission Decision 93/196/EEC (2) and for imports of registered equidae and equidae for breeding and production in Commission Decision 93/197/EEC (3), both as last amended by Decision 96/81/EC (4);
Whereas piroplasmosis (B. equi and B. caballi) is present in certain Member States of the European Community; whereas equidae seropositive for piroplasmosis are present in certain Member States;
Whereas therefore the negative serological test results required for imports of certain categories of equidae from certain third countries are no longer appropriate;
Whereas treatment of equidae to eliminate infection may be detrimental to the animals; whereas however following the treatment a shortlasting seronegativity in the required serological test does not exclude infectivity for vector ticks;
Whereas the abovementioned Decisions must be amended accordingly;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Veterinary Committee,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
In Annex II, chapter 'III. Health information` of Decision 93/196/EEC paragraph (j), fourth indent, is deleted.
Article 2
In the certificates D and E of Annex II, chapter 'III. Health information` of Decision 93/197/EEC paragraph (j), fourth indent, is deleted.

(4) Whereas the Kingdom of Spain should therefore be authorised to accede to the Convention establishing the IATTC on a temporary basis, until the Community becomes a member;
