COMMISSION DECISION
of 9 December 1982
approving a programme relating to structure of the market for flowers and ornamental plants in the Land Hamburg pursuant to Council Regulation (EEC) No 355/77
(Only the German text is authentic)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 of 15 February 1977 on common measures to improve the conditions under which agricultural products are processed and marketed (1), and in particular Article 5 thereof,
Whereas the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany forwarded its programme relating to the structure of the market for flowers and ornamental plants in the Land Hamburg on 25 November 1981 and supplied additional information on 1 June 1982;
Whereas the said programme relates to the rebuilding of a wholesale market hall for flowers at the Hamburg wholesale fruit and vegetable market;
Whereas the marketing of ornamental plants in Northern Germany (Hamburg, Schleswig-Holstein, and the districts of Lueneberg in the Land Lower Saxony) is concentrated at the wholesale flower market in Hamburg;
Whereas implementation of the project for rebuilding a wholesale market hall for flowers contained in the programme will have repercussions both for the structure of the market in the Federal Republic of Germany for some of the products concerned and for a number of producers that will be much more extensive than those that an individual project covered by Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 may normally have;
Whereas these repercussions will consist in a reorganization of the marketing of ornamental plants in the areas specified and hence in a lasting improvement in marketing conditions for the producers concerned;
Whereas the said programme therefore constitutes a programme within the meaning of Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77;
Whereas the programme can be approved only subject to the policy on the processing and marketing of agricultural products that will be adopted by the Community once Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 has lapsed;
Whereas the programme contains sufficient information, as required by Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77, to show that the objectives laid down in Article 1 of the said Regulation can be achieved in respect of the sector concerned in the areas specified;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Agricultural Structure,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The programme relating to the structure of the market for flowers and ornamental plants in the Land Hamburg forwarded by the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 on 25 November 1981, concerning which additional information was suppled on 1 June 1982, is hereby approved.
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the Federal Republic of Germany.

Commission Decision
of 25 March 2003
on the application of Article 3(3)(e) of Directive 1999/5/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council to radio equipment intended to be used on non-SOLAS vessels and which is intended to participate in the Automatic Identification System (AIS)
(notified under document number C(2003) 808)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2003/213/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Directive 1999/5/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 1999 on radio equipment and telecommunications terminal equipment and the mutual recognition of their conformity(1), and in particular Article 3(3)(e), thereof,
Whereas:
(1) A number of Member States have implemented or intend to implement common safety principles and rules for automatic identification system (AIS) equipment on non-SOLAS vessels not falling under the carriage requirements of Chapter V of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea, 1974 (SOLAS).
(2) The harmonisation of radio services contributes to a safer navigation of non-SOLAS vessels, particularly in case of distress and bad weather conditions and such vessels are therefore invited by Member States to participate in the AIS.
(3) The AIS is described in the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) Regulation 19 to Chapter V of SOLAS - Carriage requirements for shipborne navigational systems and equipment, - which sets out navigational equipment to be carried on board ships, according to ship type.
(4) The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Radio Regulations has designated certain frequencies 161.975 (AIS1) and 162.025 (AIS2) MHz for use by the AIS. Other frequencies allocated for maritime communications may be available to the AIS. All radio equipment operating on those frequencies should be compatible with the designated use of these frequencies and it should provide a reasonable guarantee of assurance that it will function correctly in times of operation.
(5) The measures set out in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Telecommunications Conformity Assessment and Market Surveillance Committee,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
Radio equipment which operates in the maritime mobile service as defined in Article 1.28 of the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) Radio Regulations, or in the maritime mobile satellite service as defined in Article 1.29 of the ITU Radio Regulations shall comply with the essential requirements set out in Article 3(3)(e) of Directive 1999/5/EC.
To that end such equipment shall be designed in such a way as to ensure that it operates correctly in its intended maritime environment when used on non-SOLAS vessels and it shall meet all the appropriate operational requirements of the Automatic Identification System (AIS).
Article 2
The requirements of Article 1 of this Decision shall apply as from 28 March 2003.
Article 3
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

COMMISSION DECISION of 3 March 1980 refusing to accept the scientific character of the apparatus described as "Benthos boomerang corer, model 1890" (80/327/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1798/75 of 10 July 1975 on the importation free of Common Customs Tariff duties of educational, scientific and cultural materials (1), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1027/79 (2),
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79 of 12 December 1979 laying down provisions for the implementation of Regulation (EEC) No 1798/75 (3), and in particular Article 7 thereof,
Whereas, by letter dated 28 September 1979, the United Kingdom Government requested the Commission to invoke the procedure at present laid down in Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79 in order to determine whether or not the apparatus described as "Benthos boomerang corer, model 1890", to be used for the study of Atlantic Ocean circulation, should be considered as a scientific apparatus and, where the reply is in the affirmative, whether apparatus of equivalent scientific value is currently being manufactured in the Community;
Whereas, in accordance with the provisions of Article 7 (5) of Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79, a group of experts composed of representatives of all the Member States met on 5 February 1980 within the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements to examine this particular case;
Whereas this examination showed that the apparatus in question serves for taking sediment samples of the bottom of the sea ; whereas it does not have the requisite objective characteristics making it specifically suited to scientific research ; whereas apparatus of the same kind is principally used for the realization of non-scientific activities ; whereas its use in the case in question could not alone confer upon it the character of a scientific apparatus ; whereas it therefore cannot be regarded as a scientific apparatus,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The apparatus described as "Benthos boomerang corer, model 1890" is not considered to be a scientific apparatus.
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
Done at Brussels, 3 March 1980.
COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 225/2007
of 1 March 2007
as regards the support for restructuring and conversion provided for in Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 for the 2006/2007 wine year
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in wine (1), and in particular Article 80(b) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Article 13(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 provides for that in regions classified as Objective 1 in accordance with Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 of 21 June 1999 laying down general provisions on the Structural Funds (2), the Community contribution to the costs of restructuring and conversion is limited to 75 % of those costs.
(2)
Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 was repealed by Council Regulation (EC) No 1083/2006 of 11 July 2006 laying down general provisions on the European Regional Development Fund, the European Social Fund and the Cohesion Fund and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 (3). In accordance with Article 3(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999, regions covered by Objective 1 were the regions corresponding to level II of the Nomenclature of Territorial Statistical Units (NUTS II) whose per capita GDP, measured in purchasing power parities has been less than 75 % of the Community average. In accordance with Article 5(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1083/2006, such regions are eligible for funding under the Convergence objective. Some regions which have been covered by Objective 1 are not covered by the Convergence objective.
(3)
This causes specific practical problems in case of the application of restructuring and conversion plans, prepared and approved for the wine year 2006/2007, in regions that were classified as Objective 1 regions under Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999 and that are no longer eligible for funding from the Structural Funds under the Convergence objective pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1083/2006. It is difficult to differentiate, within one single financial year, between payments that are eligible for different rates of Community contribution. Therefore, it is appropriate to provide for a prolongation, for the wine year 2006/2007, of the application of Article 13(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 to Objective 1 regions.
(4)
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Wine,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Article 13(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 shall apply for the 2006/2007 wine year to regions which are classified as Objective 1 regions in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1260/1999.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 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.
Done at Brussels, 1 March 2007.
Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1740/78
of 25 July 1978
amending Regulation (EEC) No 1579/74 on the procedure for calculating the import levy on products processed from cereals and from rice and for the advance fixing of this levy for these products and for compound feedingstuffs manufactured from cereals
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in cereals (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1254/78 (2), and in particular Article 24 thereof,
Whereas in view of the need to have available more up to date information on imports of certain products, it is necessary to provide for more frequent returns by Member States; whereas Regulation (EEC) No 1579/74 of 24 June 1974 (3) should therefore be amended accordingly;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
In Article 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 1579/74, the following paragraph is hereby added:
‘However, in respect of products falling under subheadings 07.06 A, 23.02 A I and 23.02 A II of the Common Customs Tariff, these particulars shall be communicated to the Commission daily.’
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 25 July 1978.
COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 654/81
of 10 March 1981
amending Regulation (EEC) No 3179/78 concerning the conclusion by the European Economic Community of the Convention on future multilateral cooperation in the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),
Whereas the Community, by Council Regulation (EEC) No 3179/78 (2), approved the Convention on future multilateral cooperation in the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries;
Whereas on 7 June 1979 the General Council of the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization adopted with effect from 1 January 1980 amendments to Annex III to the Convention on future multilateral cooperation in the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries, pursuant to Article XX, paragraph 2, of the same Convention, which concern the delimitation of the boundary between the statistical sub-areas covering the waters between the west coast of Greenland and the coast of Canada;
Whereas the text of the Convention has consequently been amended by Regulation (EEC) No 653/80 (3), the application of which was, however, limited to 31 December 1980, since it was adopted as an interim measure on the basis of Article 103 of the Treaty;
Whereas it is therefore necessary to provide for the definitive amendment of Regulation (EEC) No 3179/78,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Paragraphs 1 (a) and 2 (a) of Annex III to the Convention on future multilateral cooperation in the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries, published in the Annex to Regulation (EEC) No 3179/78, shall be amended in conformity with the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2
Regulation (EEC) No 653/80 is hereby repealed.
Article 3
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
