Having regard to the request submitted by the Federal Republic of Germany,

Whereas in Germany the production of seed of Quercus pedunculata and Quercus sessiliflora satisfying the requirements laid down in Directive 71/161/EEC was insufficient in 1988 and is not adequate to supply Germany's needs;

Whereas it has not been possible to cover those needs satisfactorily at this stage by the use of seed from other Member States, or even from non-member countries, satisfying all the requirements laid down in the said Directive;

Whereas Germany should therefore be authorized to permit, for a limited period, the marketing of seed of the abovementioned species subject to less stringent requirements;

Whereas Council Directive 66/404/EEC on the marketing of forest reproductive reproduct material (3), as last amended by Directive 88/332/EEC (4), provides that reproductive material may be marketed only if it is accompanied by a document bearing certain details of the reproductive material in question;

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The Federal Republic of Germany is hereby authorized to permit the marketing on its territory of a maximum of 25 000 kilograms of seed of Quercus pedunculata Ehrh. and 20 000 kilograms of seed of Quercus sessiliflora Sal. which does not satisfy the requirements relating to specific purity in Annex I to Directive 71/161/EEC, provided that the following requirement is satisfied: the document required under Article 9 of Directive 66/404/EEC shall state: 'Seed not satisfying the standards in respect of specific purity'.

Article 2

The Federal Republic of Germany shall notify the Commission before 1 January 1991 of the quantities of seed marketed on its territory pursuant to this Decision. The Commission shall inform the other Member States thereof.

Article 3

The authorization provided for in Article 1, in so far as it concerns the first marketing, shall expire on 30 November 1990 and, in so far as it does not concern the first marketing, shall expire on 31 December 1992.

(89/532/EEC)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 66/401/EEC of 14 June 1966 on the marketing of fodder plant seed (1), as last amended by Commission Decision 89/100/EEC (2), and in particular Article 16 (1) (a) and (b) thereof,

Having regard to Council Directive 69/208/EEC of 30 June 1969 on the marketing of seed of oil and fibre plants (3), as last amended by Directive 88/380/EEC (4), and in particular Article 15 (1) (a) and (b) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas, in its seventh Decision, 85/355/EEC (5), as last amended by Decision 89/368/EEC (6), the Council determined that field inspections carried out in certain third countries on seed-producing crops of certain species satisfy the conditions laid down in Directives 66/401/EEC and 69/208/EEC;

Whereas, in its seventh Decision, 85/356/EEC (7), as last amended by Decision 89/368/EEC, the Council determined that seed of certain species produced in certain third countries is equivalent to corresponding seed harvested in the Community;

Whereas in respect of most third countries, Decision 85/355/EEC and 85/356/EEC expire on 30 June 1990;

Whereas, however, in the case of Australia and Norway, further detailed information was awaited and the equivalence granted in respect of those countries was limited to a period thought necessary for this to be supplied and assessed; whereas that period expired on 30 June 1989;

Whereas, in the case of Australia, the supply and assessment of this information is progressing, but further time is needed for its completion; whereas, in the case of Norway, the information awaited has been supplied and its assessment is, for the present, completed;

Whereas it is therefore appropriate, in the case of both countries, to extend the equivalence granted until the date on which Decisions 85/355/EEC and 85/356/EEC expire in respect of most third countries,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

Article 3 of Decision 85/355/EEC is hereby replaced by the following:
