COMMISSION DECISION

of 6 March 1986

amending Decision 85/634/EEC authorizing certain Member States to provide for derogations from certain provisions of Council Directive 77/93/EEC in respect of oak wood originating in Canada or the United States of America

(Only the French, Dutch, Danish, German and Italian texts are authentic)

(86/114/EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 77/93/EEC of 21 December 1976 on protective measures against the introduction into the Member States of organisms harmful to plants or plant products (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3768/85 (2), and in particular Article 14 (3) thereof,

Having regard to the requests made by Belgium, Denmark, Germany, France, Italy, Luxembourg and the Netherlands,

Whereas under the provisions of Directive 77/93/EEC, oak wood with bark attached, originating in North America, may in principle not be introduced into the Community because of the risk of introducing Ceratocystis fagacearum, the cause of oak wilt;

Whereas, however, Article 14 (3) of the abovementioned Directive permits derogations from that rule, provided that it is established that there is no risk of spreading harmful organisms;

Whereas by Commission Decision 85/634/EEC (3), the Commission granted such derogations under revised conditions in respect of oak logs originating in Canada or the United States of America;

Whereas that Decision stipulated that the revised conditions should become mandatory by 1 January 1986 at the latest;

Whereas it has been established that late publication of the Decision in the Official Journal of the European Communities has caused difficulties to the factual publicizing of the conditions to all circles concerned in the Community as well as in Canada and the United States of America;

Whereas it has also been established that these difficulties have delayed the setting up of the necessary administrative and technical arrangements, in particular in respect of fumigation facilities and related structures;

Whereas therefore the aforementioned date of 1 January 1986 should be replaced by a later date;

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

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

1. In Article 6 of Decision 85/634/EEC, '1 January 1986' is hereby replaced by '15 March 1986'.

2. Until that date, the Member States concerned shall make use of the provisions laid down in Article 1 (2) (d), third indent of Decision 85/634/EEC.

Article 2

This Decision is addressed to the Kingdom of Belgium, the Kingdom of Denmark, the Federal Republic of Germany, the French Republic, the Italian Republic, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

Whereas on 11 October 1985 the Danish Government forwarded a modification to the programme for the beef and meat processing sector in Denmark approved by Commission Decision 80/670/EEC (3);

COMMISSION DECISION

of 24 June 1986

approving an amendment to the programme for meat processing in France in respect of prepared, cured and preserved meat products in accordance with Council Regulation (EEC) No 355/77

(Only the French text is authentic)

(86/334/EEC)

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 and fishery products are processed and marketed (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3827/85 (2), and in particular Article 5 thereof,

Whereas on 22 November 1985 the French Government forwarded an amendment to the programme for meat processing and the manufacture of meat products approved by Commission Decision 80/397/EEC (3), and supplied additional details on 24 April 1986;

Whereas the amendment to the said programme is restricted to investments for the modernization, rationalization, concentration and, to a lesser extent, the creation of capacity for third-stage meat processing, namely the manufacture of prepared, cured and preserved meat products, and whereas all these investments are likely to help improve and develop the said sector; whereas they therefore constitute a programme within the meaning of Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77;

Whereas the investments relating to the modernization, rationalization, concentration and very limited creation of capacity for the production of prepared, cured and preserved meat products may be accepted but the investments concerning ready-cooked dishes are excluded inasmuch as they are products not listed in Annex II to the Treaty;

Whereas the amendment contains sufficient of the details referred to in Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 (except in the case of the abovementioned investments), showing that the objectives laid down in Article 1 of that Regulation can be achieved in the sector in question; whereas the deadline for implementing the amendment does not exceed the time limit laid down in Article 3 (1) (g) of the Regulation;

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
