COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1208/2007
of 16 October 2007
derogating from Regulation (EC) No 800/1999 as regards the determination of the refund rate for milk and milk products in the case of supplies as referred to in Articles 36 and 44 of that Regulation and carried out from 1 to 14 June 2007
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products (1), and in particular Article 31(14) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
As from 15 June 2007, Commission Regulation (EC) No 660/2007 of 14 June 2007 fixing the export refunds for milk and milk products (2) no longer provides for export refunds on milk and milk products, including products supplied as referred to in Articles 36 and 44 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 800/1999 of 15 April 1999 laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of export refunds on agricultural products (3).
(2)
In accordance with Article 37 of Regulation (EC) No 800/1999, Member States may authorise exporters to follow a procedure whereby the last day of the month is used to determine the rate of refund applicable to supplies as referred to in Articles 36 and 44 of that Regulation loaded each month. It is therefore not possible to determine the rate of refund applicable to supplies of milk and milk products carried out under that procedure from 1 to 14 June 2007.
(3)
Entitlement to the refund on supplies carried out under the procedure provided for in Article 37 of Regulation (EC) No 800/1999, before the date of the entry into force of Regulation (EC) No 660/2007, should not be affected. In order to determine that refund, it is therefore necessary to set the date to be used for that purpose, by way of derogation from Article 37(2) of Regulation (EC) No 800/1999.
(4)
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
By way of derogation from Article 37(2) of Regulation (EC) No 800/1999, the date 14 June 2007 shall be used to determine the rate of refund applicable to milk and milk products in the case of supplies as referred to in Article 36(1)(a) and (c) and in Article 44(1)(a) and (b) of that Regulation and carried out from 1 to 14 June 2007 in accordance with the procedure provided for in Article 37 of that Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 1 June 2007.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Whereas:
(1)
The Agreement between the European Community and New Zealand on sanitary measures applicable to trade in live animals and animal products (2) (the Agreement) provided for the possibility of recognising the equivalence of the New Zealand control and certification systems for fresh meat and meat based products and for other animal products.
(2)
Commission Decision 2003/56/EC (3) lays down the certification requirements and provides models for official health certificates to be used for the importation from New Zealand of live animals and animal products. In cases where full equivalence of sanitary measures has been determined, simplified certificates may be used, models for which are set out in Annexes II to V to that Decision.
(3)
Account should be taken of recent acknowledgements of equivalence of the disease status and of sanitary measures for trade in live honey bees and bumble bees. Simplified veterinary certification was agreed for this category. An appropriate model certificate should be set out.
(4)
Other certification provisions need to be updated to take account of the changes in relevant Community legislation.
(5)
Decision 2003/56/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(6)
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,

Whereas this examination showed that the apparatus in question is a computor-controlled diffractometer;
Whereas its objective technical characteristics such as the accuracy of the data relating to the study of molecular constitution and the use to whch it is put make it specially suited to scientific research; whereas, moreover, apparatus of the same knd are principally used for scientific activities; whereas it must therefore be considered to be a scientific apparatus;
Whereas, however, on the basis of information received from Member States, apparatus of scientific value equivalent to the said apparatus, capable of being used for the same purposes, are currently being manufactured in the Community; whereas this applies, in particular, to the apparatus "CAD4SDP" manufactured by Enraf-Nonius, Rontgenweg 1, NL-Delft,
