According to the information received by the Commission, catches of the stock referred to in the Annex to this Regulation by vessels flying the flag of, or registered in, the Member State referred to therein have exhausted the quota allocated for 2007.

COMMISSION DECISION of 7 December 1994 requesting the Kingdom of Denmark to postpone the adoption of its draft regulation concerning the maximum level of certain mycotoxins in foodstuffs (Only the Danish text is authentic) (94/787/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 315/93 of 8 February 1993 laying down Community procedures relating to contaminants in food (1),
Whereas, in accordance with the procedure provided for in Article 5 (3) (b) of Regulation (EEC) No 315/93, the Danish authorities have notified the Commission of their intention to adopt a draft regulation defining the maximum limits of certain mycotoxins in foodstuffs;
Whereas the draft regulation lays down the maximum limits for certain mycotoxins in foodstuffs and food ingredients;
Whereas, in accordance with Article 5 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 315/93, the Commission has consulted the other Member States within the framework of the Standing Committee for Foodstuffs;
Whereas, in the general view, it has been recognized that it is desirable to lay down such maximum limits for mycotoxins in certain foodstuffs;
Whereas, however, the application of such a measure unilaterally in Denmark would constitute a barrier to intra-Community trade;
Whereas this finding has prompted the Commission to express a negative opinion in accordance with Article 5 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 315/93;
Whereas one solution to the problem posed by the Danish draft regulation would be to lay down maximum Community limits for mycotoxins in foodstuffs;
Whereas, therefore, it is necessary to postpone any national initiative in this area for an appropriate period of time;
Whereas the measures adopted by this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee for Foodstuffs,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The Kingdom of Denmark is hereby required to postpone the adoption of its draft regulation concerning the maximum limit of certain mycotoxins in foodstuffs until 1 May 1995.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 70/156/EEC of 6 February 1970 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the type-approval of motor vehicles and their trailers (1), as last amended by Commission Directive 93/81/EEC (2),
Whereas on 2 May 1995 the authorities of the Italian Republic lodged a request for approval, by the Commission, of an exemption pursuant to Article 8 (2) (c) of Directive 70/156/EEC; whereas this request contains the information required by the abovementioned Article 8; whereas this request concerns the fitting of vehicles with a third stop lamp, as provided for in category ECE S3 by ECE (United Nations Economic Commission for Europe) Regulation No 7 and fitted in accordance with ECE Regulation No 48;
Whereas the reasons stated, whereby the fitting of the stop lamps and the stop lamps themselves do not meet the requirements of Council Directive 76/758/EEC of 27 July 1976 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to end-outline marker lamps, front position (side) lamps, rear position (side) lamps and stop lamps for motor vehicles and their trailers (3), as last amended by Commission Directive 89/516/EEC (4), nor of Council Directive 76/756/EEC of 27 July 1976 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the installation of lighting and light-signalling devices on motor vehicles and their trailers (5), as last amended by Commission Directive 91/663/EEC (6), are justified; whereas the descriptions of the tests, the results thereof and their compliance with ECE Regulations No 7 and No 48 ensure a satisfactory level of safety;
Whereas the Directives concerned will be amended in order to authorize the production and fitting of such stop lamps; whereas, this being the case, it is therefore justified to authorize EC type-approval for vehicles fitted with the stop lamps covered by this request;
Whereas the measure provided for in this Decision is in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for the adaptation to technical progress of the Directives for the removal of technical barriers to trade in the motor vehicles sector, as set up by Directive 70/156/EEC,

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 83/2006

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2777/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organisation of the market in poultrymeat (1), and in particular the third subparagraph of Article 8(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 2777/75 provides that the difference between prices on the world market for the products listed in Article 1(1) of that Regulation and prices for those products on the Community market may be covered by an export refund.
(2)
It follows from applying these rules and criteria to the present situation on the market in poultrymeat that the refund should be fixed at an amount which would permit Community participation in world trade and would also take account of the nature of these exports and their importance at the present time.
(3)
Article 21 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 800/1999 of 15 April 1999 laying down detailed rules for the application of the system of export refunds on agricultural products (2) stipulates that no refund is granted if the products are not of sound and fair marketable quality on the date on which the export declaration is accepted. In order to ensure uniform application of the rules in force, it should be stated that, in order to qualify for the refund, the poultrymeat listed in Article 1 of Regulation (EEC) No 2777/75 must bear the health mark as laid down in Council Directive 71/118/EEC of 15 February 1971 on health problems affecting trade in fresh poultrymeat (3).
(4)
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Poultrymeat and Eggs,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The codes of products for which, when they are exported, the export refund referred to in Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 2777/75 is granted and the amount of that refund shall be as shown in the Annex hereto.
However, in order to qualify for the refund, products falling within the scope of Chapter XII of the Annex to Directive 71/118/EEC must also satisfy the health marking conditions laid down in that Directive.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on 19 January 2006.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

of 22 March 2007
amending Regulation (EC) No 195/2007 opening the buying-in of butter in certain Member States for the period 1 March to 31 August 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),
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 2771/1999 of 16 December 1999 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 as regards intervention on the market in butter and cream (2), and in particular Article 2 thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Commission Regulation (EC) No 195/2007 (3) establishes the list of Member States in which buying-in for butter is open, as provided for in Article 6(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999.
(2)
On the basis of most recent communications by Ireland, the Commission has observed that butter market prices have been equal or superior to 92 % of the intervention price for two consecutive weeks. Intervention buying-in should therefore be suspended in that Member State. Ireland should therefore be withdrawn from the list established in Regulation (EC) No 195/2007.
(3)
Regulation (EC) No 195/2007 should therefore be amended accordingly,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 195/2007 is replaced by the following text:
‘Article 1
Buying-in of butter as provided for in Article 6(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 is hereby open in the following Member States:
-
Spain
-
Portugal.’
