Commission Regulation (EC) No 2245/2003
of 19 December 2003
amending Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 999/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards monitoring of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies in ovine and caprine animals
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 999/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2001 laying down rules for the prevention, control and eradication of certain transmissible spongiform encephalopathies(1), and in particular the first paragraph of Article 23 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EC) No 999/2001 lays down rules for the monitoring of transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) in ovine and caprine animals.
(2) Separate sample sizes should be set for ovine and caprine animals to make it easier to interpret results of testing for TSEs.
(3) Monitoring of large numbers of ovine animals slaughtered for human consumption in Member States with large sheep populations has made it possible to estimate the prevalence of TSEs in those populations. The level of monitoring in large sheep populations should therefore be reduced. Monitoring of ovine animals slaughtered for human consumption in Member States with small sheep populations provides limited information and should therefore no longer be compulsory.
(4) Monitoring of sufficiently large numbers of caprine animals slaughtered for human consumption to detect the likely prevalence of TSEs in this group is difficult or impractical in most Member States. Monitoring in that group should therefore no longer be compulsory.
(5) Monitoring of dead-on-farm stock in both ovine and caprine animals should be increased, to provide information on prevalence of TSE and to aid eradication of the disease. Member States should take measures to ensure that infected animals are not diverted away from sampling.
(6) Regulation (EC) No 999/2001 should therefore be amended accordingly. For practical reasons, it is appropriate to replace the amended Annex III as a whole.
(7) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 999/2001 is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 1 January 2004.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

(3) Commission Regulation (EC) No 6/2004(5) fixes the Community producer and import prices for carnations and roses for the application of the import arrangements.

The Common Customs Tariff duty should be re-established.
(6) The quota for the products in question covers the period 1 January to 31 December 2004. As a result, the suspension of the preferential duty and the reintroduction of the Common Customs Tariff duty apply up to the end of that period at the latest.
(7) In between meetings of the Management Committee for Live Plants and Floriculture Products, the Commission must adopt such measures,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

COMMISSION DECISION

on the allocation to the United Kingdom of additional days at sea within ICES division VIIe
(notified under document number C(2007) 3212)
(Only the English text is authentic)
(2007/487/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 41/2007 of 21 December 2006 fixing for 2007 the fishing opportunities and associated conditions for certain fish stocks and groups of stocks, applicable in Community waters and for Community vessels in waters where catch limitations are required (1), and in particular point 9 of Annex IIC, thereto
Having regard to the requests made by the United Kingdom,
Whereas:
(1)
Point 7 of Annex IIC to Regulation (EC) No 41/2007 specifies the maximum number of days at sea (192) on which Community vessels of length overall equal to or greater than 10 metres carrying on board beam trawls of mesh size equal to or greater than 80 mm or static nets, including gill-nets, trammel-nets and tangle-nets, with mesh size less than 220 mm may be present within ICES division VIIe from 1 February 2007 to 31 January 2008.
(2)
Point 9 of that Annex enables the Commission to allocate an additional number of days at sea on which a vessel may be present within that area when carrying on board such beam trawls or static nets, on the basis of permanent cessations of fishing activities that have taken place since 1 of January 2004.
(3)
The United Kingdom has submitted data demonstrating that vessels, which ceased activities since 1 January 2004, measured a reduction of 5,24 % in the fishing effort expended during the year 2003, taken as reference period for vessels present in the area and carrying on board beam trawls of mesh size equal to or greater than 80 mm.
(4)
In view of the data submitted and applying the calculation method foreseen under point 9.1, 10 additional days at sea should be allocated to United Kingdom for the period between 1 February 2007 and 31 January 2008 for vessels carrying on board such beam trawls.
(5)
For reasons of clarity this decision reflects the total amount of additional days allocated to the United Kingdom and takes into account the 12 additional days at sea that are previously allocated by Commission Decision 2006/461/EC of 26 June 2006 on the allocation to the United Kingdom of additional fishing days within ICES division VIIe (2), as these additional days remain allocated in 2007.
(6)
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for Fisheries and Aquaculture,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The maximum number of days a fishing vessel flying the flag of the United Kingdom and carrying on board beam trawls of mesh size equal to or greater than 80 mm may be present in ICES division VIIe, as laid down in table I of Annex IIC to Regulation (EC) No 41/2007, shall be amended to 214 days per year.
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
Done at Brussels, 6 July 2007.
