COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1751/96 of 9 September 1996 amending Regulation (EC) No 1318/96 derogating from Regulation (EEC) No 2456/93 as regards public intervention
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in beef and veal (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1588/96 (2), and in particular Article 6 (7) thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 1318/96 of 8 July 1996 derogating from Regulation (EEC) No 2456/93 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 as regards public intervention (3), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1743/96 (4), fixes, on a degressive basis, the maximum weight of carcases which may be bought in under invitations to tender opened in July, August and September 1996; whereas, in order to cushion the impact of that measure for operators, the Regulation also authorizes intervention buying of heavier carcases during July and August, by way of derogation, while limiting the buying-in price to the maximum authorized weight; whereas bullocks reach their slaughter weight more slowly and therefore later in the year than uncastrated animals; whereas, in order to avoid giving unequal treatment to these two categories of animal, the derogation from the buying-in price should be extended for bullocks to invitations to tender opened in September;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Beef and Veal,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The following is added to the final subparagraph of Article 1 (3) of Regulation (EC) No 1318/96:

Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply to invitations to tender opened in September 1996.

Whereas Directive 70/524/EEC provides for regular amendment of the content of its Annexes to take account of advances in scientific and technical knowledge; whereas the Annexes were consolidated by Commision Directive 85/429/EEC (3);
Whereas canthaxanthin used as a colouring matter in feedingstuffs for trout and salmon complies under the conditions of use prescribed with the principles governing the admission of additives; whereas it is desirable therefore to authorize this use of canthaxanthin throughout the Community;

(notified under document number C(2004) 1512)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2004/400/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 91/414/EEC of 15 July 1991 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market(1), and in particular the fourth subparagraph of Article 8(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) In accordance with Article 6(2) of Directive 91/414/EEC, in March 1998 Spain received an application from BASF AG for the inclusion of the active substance profoxydim (former names: clefoxydim, BAS 625H) in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC. Decision 1999/43/EC(2) confirmed that the dossier was complete and could be considered as satisfying, in principle, the data and information requirements of Annex II and Annex III to the Directive.
(2) Confirmation of the completeness of the dossier was necessary in order to allow it to be examined in detail and to allow Member States the possibility of granting provisional authorisations, for periods up to three years, for plant protection products containing profoxydim, while complying with the conditions laid down in Article 8(1) of Directive 91/414/EEC and, in particular, the condition relating to the detailed assessment of the active substance and the plant protection product in the light of the requirements laid down by that Directive.
(3) For profoxydim, the effects on human health and the environment have been assessed, in accordance with the provisions of Article 6(2) and (4) of Directive 91/414/EEC, for the uses proposed by the applicant. The rapporteur Member State submitted the draft assessment report to the Commission on 28 March 2001.
(4) The examination of the dossier is still ongoing after submission of the draft assessment reports by the rapporteur Member State and it will not be possible to complete the evaluation within the timeframe foreseen by Directive 91/414/EEC.
(5) As the evaluation so far has not identified any reason for immediate concern, Member States should be given the possibility of prolonging provisional authorisations granted for plant protection products containing profoxydim for a period of 24 months in accordance with the provisions of Article 8 of Directive 91/414/EEC so as to enable the examination of the dossier to continue. It is expected that the evaluation and decision-making process with respect to a decision on possible Annex I inclusion for profoxydim will have been completed within 24 months.
(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,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
Member States may extend provisional authorisations for plant protection products containing profoxydim for a period not exceeding 24 months from the date of adoption of this Decision.
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
