THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to Council Directive 89/662/EEC of 11 December 1989 concerning veterinary checks in intra-Community trade with a view to the completion of the internal market (1), and in particular Article 9(4) thereof,
Having regard to Council Directive 90/425/EEC of 26 June 1990 concerning veterinary and zootechnical checks applicable in intra-Community trade in certain live animals and products with a view to the completion of the internal market (2), and in particular Article 10(4) thereof,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 998/2003 of 26 May 2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the animal health requirements applicable to the non-commercial movement of pet animals and amending Council Directive 92/65/EEC (3), and in particular Article 18 thereof,

Denmark has notified the Commission and the other Member States of an outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza A virus of subtype H5N1 in poultry on its territory and has taken the appropriate measures provided for in Commission Decision 2006/135/EC of 22 February 2006 concerning certain protection measures in relation to highly pathogenic avian influenza in the Community (5).
(2)
Following that outbreak, Denmark took the necessary measures in accordance with Decision 2006/135/EC. After notification of those measures, the Commission has examined them in collaboration with the Member State concerned, and is satisfied that areas A and B established by that Member State are at sufficient distance to the outbreak in poultry. It is therefore necessary to establish areas A and B in Denmark and to fix the duration of that regionalisation.
(3)
Taking account of Article 2(4)(b) and (c) of Decision 2006/135/EC and a final evaluation of the epidemiological situation with regard to highly pathogenic avian influenza of the subtype H5N1 in certain parts of Sweden and Germany, the measures established for those areas in accordance with Article 2(2) of that Decision are no longer necessary.
(4)
It is therefore necessary to amend Parts A and B of Annex I to Decision 2006/135/EC accordingly.

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Commission Regulation (EC) No 990/2006 (2) opened standing invitations to tender for the export of cereals held by the intervention agencies of the Member States.
(2)
Recently, the resale of rye on the internal market has sharply increased.

(notified under document number C(1999) 1966)
(Only the English text is authentic)
(1999/637/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 of 12 October 1992 establishing the Community Customs Code(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 955/1999(2), and in particular Articles 12(5)(a)(iii) and 249(4) thereof,
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 of 2 July 1993 laying down provisions for the implementation of Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 establishing the Community Customs Code(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 502/1999(4), and in particular Article 9 thereof,
(1) Whereas the binding tariff information referred to in the Annex to this Decision is inconsistent with other binding tariff information, and the tariff classification it contains is incompatible with the general rules for the interpretation of the combined nomenclature set out in Section I A of Part I of Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff(5), as last amended by Council Regulation (EC) No 861/1999(6);
(2) Whereas the said binding tariff information should cease to be valid; whereas, therefore, the customs administrations which issued the information should revoke it as soon as possible and notify the Commission to that effect;

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 736/2005
of 13 May 2005
supplementing the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 2400/96 as regards the entry of a name in the ‘Register of protected designations of origin and protected geographical indications’ (Miel d’Alsace) - (PGI)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2081/92 of 14 July 1992 on the protection of geographical indications and designations of origin for agricultural products and foodstuffs (1), and in particular Article 7(5)(b), Article 6(3) and the first indent of Article 6(4) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
In accordance with Article 6(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2081/92, France’s application to register ‘Miel d’Alsace’ was published in the Official Journal of the European Union (2).
(2)
Germany opposed the registration under Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 2081/92. This opposition arose from a failure to comply with the conditions laid down in Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 2081/92. In Germany’s view, some details of the specification relating to proof of origin in particular were inadequate as regards the definition of a geographical indication.
(3)
By letter of 6 February 2003 the Commission asked the Member States concerned to seek agreement among themselves in accordance with their internal procedures.
(4)
As no agreement was reached between France and Germany within three months, the Commission must adopt a decision in accordance with the procedure provided for in Article 15 of Regulation (EEC) No 2081/92.
(5)
As a result of the contacts between France and Germany on Miel d’Alsace, clarifications were made to the product specification in question, particularly as regards the honey’s chemical features and proof of origin. Point 4 of the specification summary has been amended as a result.
(6)
In light of the above, the name should thus be entered in the ‘Register of protected designations of origin and protected geographical indications’.
(7)
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Regulatory Committee on the Protection of Geographical Indications and Designations of Origin for Agricultural Products and Foodstuffs,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The name in Annex I to this Regulation is hereby added to the Annex to Commission Regulation (EC) No 2400/96 (3).
Article 2
A summary of the main points of the specification is given in Annex II to this Regulation.
Article 3
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 560/2005 imposing certain specific restrictive measures directed against certain persons and entities in view of the situation in Côte d’Ivoire (1), and in particular Article 11(a) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 560/2005 lists the natural and legal persons and entities covered by the freezing of funds and economic resources under that Regulation.
(2)
On 30 May 2006, the Sanctions Committee of the United Nations Security Council decided to amend the list of natural persons to whom the freezing of funds and economic resources should apply. Annex I should therefore be amended accordingly,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

derogating for 2007 from Regulations (EC) No 596/2004 and (EC) No 633/2004 regarding the date of issue of export licences in the egg and poultrymeat sectors
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2771/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organisation of the market in eggs (1), and in particular Article 3(2) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2777/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organisation of the market in poultrymeat (2), and in particular Article 3(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Article 3(3) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 596/2004 (3) and Article 3(3) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 633/2004 (4) laying down detailed rules for implementing the system of export licences in the egg and poultrymeat sectors, respectively, provide that export licences are to be issued on the Wednesday following the week during which the licence applications have been lodged, provided that no special measures have since been taken by the Commission.
(2)
In view of the public holidays in 2007 and the irregular publication of the Official Journal of the European Union during those holidays, the period between the submission of applications and the day on which the licences are to be issued will be too brief to guarantee proper administration of the market. The period should therefore be extended.
(3)
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Poultrymeat and Eggs,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
Notwithstanding Article 3(3) of Regulation (EC) No 596/2004 and Article 3(3) of Regulation (EC) No 633/2004, licences shall be delivered for 2007 on the dates set out in the Annex to this Regulation.

Article 2

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 2320/2002 of the European Parliament and the Council of 16 December 2002 establishing common rules in the field of civil aviation security (1), and in particular Article 4(2) thereof,

(4)
Such a review has shown that the restrictions on liquids carried by passengers arriving on flights from third countries and transferring at Community airports create certain operational difficulties at these airports and cause inconvenience to the passengers concerned.
(5)
Developments in screening technology should, in due course, provide solutions to these problems but, until technical solutions become available, temporary measures should be applied and reviewed in line with Regulation (EC) No 1546/2006. Regulation (EC) No 622/2003 should be amended accordingly.
(6)
