COMMISSION DECISION of 24 May 1978 amending Decision 74/269/EEC authorizing certain Member States to make provisions which are more strict concerning the presence of'Avena fatua'in fodder plant and cereal seed (Only the English text is authentic) (78/512/EEC)

THE COMMISSION 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 Council Directive 78/55/EEC (2), and in particular Article 14 (1a) thereof,

Whereas the said Directive laid down tolerances in respect of the presence of Avena fatua in fodder plant seed;

Whereas, in accordance with Article 14 (1a) of the said Directive, Ireland is authorized to prescribe compliance with the special conditions laid down in Commission Directive 74/269/EEC of 2 May 1974 (3) in respect of fodder plant seed;

Whereas the First Commission Directive 78/386/EEC of 18 April 1978 amending the Annexes to Council Directive 66/401/EEC on the marketing of fodder plant seed (4) laid down new conditions at Community level as regards the presence of Avena fatua in fodder plant seed;

Whereas these amendments have the effect of cancelling the special conditions which were fixed previously;

Whereas the authorization for Ireland to prescribe compliance with the special conditions laid down in Directive 74/269/EEC, when marketing fodder plant seed, should therefore be cancelled;

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,

With effect from 1 July 1980, Article 1 of Decision 74/269/EEC is hereby repealed.

COUNCIL DECISION of 25 July 1978 amending Decision 75/365/EEC setting up a Committee of Senior Officials on Public Health (78/689/EEC)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to the draft Decision submitted by the Commission,

Whereas by Decision 75/365/EEC (1) the Council set up a Committee of Senior Officials on Public Health with the task of identifying and analyzing any difficulties which might arise from the implementation of the Directives relating to the right of establishment and freedom to provide services of doctors, collecting all relevant information on the conditions under which medical care is given in the Member States and delivering opinions which could guide the Commission's work with a view to possible amendments of those Directives;

Whereas that Decision has been amended by Decision 77/455/EEC (2) which entrusts the Committee of Senior Officials on Public Health with the same task in relation to the application of the measures adopted by the Council regarding the effective exercise of the right of establishment and freedom to provide services of nurses responsible for general care;

Whereas the application of the measures adopted by the Council regarding the effective exercise of the right of establishment and freedom to provide services and the coordination of provisions laid down by law, regulation or administrative action in respect of activities of dental practitioners may give rise to problems which should also be examined jointly;

Whereas the Committee of Senior Officials on Public Health should be entrusted with this task;

Whereas the terms of reference of that Committee should therefore be extended,

HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:

Sole Article

Article 2 of Decision 75/365/EEC shall be replaced by the following:

"Article 2

The task of the Committee shall be: - to identify and analyze any difficulties which might arise from the implementation of Directives 75/362/EEC (3), 75/363/EEC (4), 77/452/EEC (5), 77/453/EEC (6), 78/686/EEC (7) and 78/687/EEC (8);

- to collect all relevant information on: - the conditions under which general and specialist medical care is given by doctors in the Member States,

- the conditions under which nursing care is given in the Member States by nurses responsible for general care,

- the conditions under which general and specialist dental care is given by dental practitioners in the Member States;
