THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 between the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on budgetary discipline and sound financial management (1), and in particular point 28 thereof,

Whereas:
(1)
The European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) was established to provide additional support for workers made redundant as a result of major structural changes in world trade patterns due to globalisation and to assist them with their reintegration into the labour market.
(2)
The scope of the EGF was broadened for applications submitted from 1 May 2009 to include support for workers made redundant as a direct result of the global financial and economic crisis.
(3)
The Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 allows the mobilisation of the EGF within the annual ceiling of EUR 500 million.

Spain submitted an application on 9 October 2009 to mobilise the EGF, in respect of redundancies in 36 enterprises operating in the NACE Revision 2 division 16 (‘Manufacture of wood and of products of wood and cork, except furniture; manufacture of articles of straw and plaiting materials’) sector in a single NUTS II region, Castilla-La Mancha (ES42) and supplemented it by additional information until 22 February 2010. This application complies with the requirements for determining the financial contributions as laid down in Article 10 of Regulation (EC) No 1927/2006. The Commission therefore proposes to mobilise an amount of EUR 1 950 000.
(5)
The EGF should, therefore, be mobilised in order to provide a financial contribution for the application submitted by Spain,
HAVE ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

(2010/761/EU)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Directive 2006/88/EC of 24 October 2006 on animal health requirements for aquaculture animals and products thereof, and on the prevention and control of certain diseases in aquatic animals (1), and in particular Article 43(2) thereof,

Commission Decision 2010/221/EU of 15 April 2010 approving national measures for limiting the impact of certain diseases in aquaculture animals and wild aquatic animals in accordance with Article 43 of Council Directive 2006/88/EC (2) allows certain Member States to apply placing on the market and import restrictions on consignments of those animals in order to prevent the introduction of certain diseases, including spring viraemia of carp (SVC), provided that the Member States have either demonstrated that they, or certain demarcated areas, are free of the disease in question (‘disease-free areas’) or that they have established an eradication programme to obtain such freedom.
(2)
Annex I to Decision 2010/221/EU lists the disease-free areas and Annex II thereto lists the areas with approved eradication programmes.
(3)
Annex II to Decision 2010/221/EU currently lists Great Britain as an area of the United Kingdom with approved eradication programme for SVC.

(4)
Hungary has submitted to the Commission applications for the approval of national measures as regards SVC. Hungary has also conducted targeted surveillance of SVC for the last two years which has demonstrated that its entire territory is free of SVC. Hungary should therefore be listed in Annex I to Decision 2010/221/EU as free of SVC.
(5)
Annexes I and II to Decision 2010/221/EU should therefore be amended accordingly.
