COUNCIL DECISION

of 27 November 1989

amending Decision 87/279/EEC on Community financial participation with regard to the facilities for the monitoring and supervision of fishing activities in waters falling under the sovereignty or within the jurisdiction of Portugal

(89/609/EEC)

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 (1),

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),

Whereas, in a declaration attached to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, the Community declared that Community support for monitoring and supervising waters falling under the sovereignty or within the jurisdiction of Portugal might be envisaged;

Whereas Decision 87/279/EEC (1) provides that the Community will participate in the financing of expenditure incurred by Portugal between 1 January 1988 and 31 December 1989 in respect of operations to conclude, modernize and improve its facilities for monitoring and supervision with a view to proper enforcement of the relevant provisions of the common fisheries policy in waters falling under its sovereignty or jurisdiction;

Whereas the said operations include the building of patrol vessels, the purchase of equipment for surveillance aircraft and the purchase and installation of technical and electronic equipment;

Whereas implementation of the said operations has been delayed because of the complexity of designing equipment which must be particularly sophisticated to ensure true effectiveness in the inspection and surveillance of very large fishing areas;

Whereas the investments planned by Portugal cannot therefore be fully implemented before 1 January 1990; whereas the time limit laid down should be deferred in the Community interest to enable the planned work to be completed and to ensure Community financial participation in the expenditure involved;

Whereas the estimates of eligible expenditure must be adjusted on the basis of the observed trend of costs; whereas, therefore, provision should be made for the Commission decision relating to the eligibility of expenditure to be amended,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

Decision 87/279/EEC is hereby amended as follows:

1. Article 1 (2) is replaced by the following:

'2. The Community shall reimburse, at a rate of 50 % and subject to a maximum of ECU 12 million, the eligible expenditure incurred by Portugal from 1 January 1988 to 31 December 1991.'

2. The following sentence is added to point 4 of the Annex:

'The Commission may amend its decision as to the eligibility of expenditure on the basis of the observed trend of costs.'

Article 2

This Decision is addressed to the Portuguese Republic.

COMMISSION DECISION

of 8 November 1989

authorizing the Kingdom of Spain to permit temporarily the marketing of durum wheat seed not satisfying the requirements of Council Directive 66/402/EEC

(89/590/EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 66/402/EEC of 14 June 1966 on the marketing of cereal seed (1), as last amended by Directive 89/2/EEC (2), and in particular Article 17 thereof,

Having regard to the request submitted by the Kingdom of Spain,

Whereas in Spain the production of seed of durum wheat satisfying the requirements of Directive 660/402/EEC has been insufficient in 1989 and therefore is not adequate to meet that country's needs;

Whereas it is not possible to cover this demand satisfactorily with seed from other Member States, or from third countries, satisfying all the requirements laid down in the said Directive;

Whereas the Kingdom of Spain should therefore be authorized to permit for a period expiring on 31 March 1990, the marketing of seed of the abovementioned species subject to less stringent requirements;

Whereas, moreover, other Member States, which are able to supply Spain with such seed not satisfying the requirements of the Directive should be authorized to permit the marketing of such seed provided it is intended for Spain;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Seeds and Propagating Material for Agriculture, Horticulture and Forestry,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The Kingdom of Spain is authorized to permit, for a period expiring on 31 March 1990 the marketing in its territory of a maximum of 2 700 tonnes of seed of durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) of very early, short-stemmed varieties of the categories 'certified seed of the first generation' or 'certified seed of the second generation', which does not satisfy the requirements laid down in Annex II to Directive 66/402/EEC with regard to the minimum germination capacity, provided that the following requirements are satisfied:

(a) the germination capacity is at least 80 % of pure seed;

(b) the official label shall bear the following endorsements:

- 'minimum germination capacity 80 %',

- 'intended exclusively for Spain'.

Article 2

The other Member States are hereby authorized to permit, subject to the conditions laid down in Article 1, the marketing in their territory of a maximum of 2 700 000 of durum wheat seed provided that it is intended exclusively for Spain. The official label shall bear the endorsements referred to in Article 1 (b).

Article 3

Member States shall notify the Commission before 31 May 1990 of the quantities of seed marketed in their territory pursuant to this Decision. The Commission shall inform the other Member States thereof.

Article 4

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

COMMISSION DECISION

of 18 July 1989

laying down the criteria for approval and supervision of breeders' associations and breeding organizations which establish or maintain herd-books for pure-bred breeding pigs

(89/501/EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Whereas in all Member States herd-books are maintained or established by breeders' associations, breeding organizations or official services; whereas it is therefore necessary to lay down the criteria for the approval of breeders' associations and breeding organizations;

Whereas breeders' associations or breeding organizations must apply for official approval to the competent authorities of the Member State on whose territory their headquarters are situated;

Whereas, where breeders' associations or breeding organizations meet certain criteria and have defined targets, they must be officially approved by the authorities of the Member State to which they have applied;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Zootechnics,

Article 1

Article 2

The authorities of the Member State concerned must grant official approval to any breeders' association or breeding organization which maintains or establishes herd-books if it meets the conditions laid down in the Annex.

However, in a Member State in which in respect of a given breed one or more officially-approved breeders' associations or breeding organizations already exist, the authorities of the Member State concerned may refuse to recognize a new breeders' association or breeding organization if it endangers the preservation of the breed or jeopardizes the zootechnical programme of the existing association or organization. In such a case, the Member State shall inform the Commission of approvals granted and refusals to give recognition.
