Commission Regulation (EC) No 2256/2000

of 11 October 2000

derogating, as regards the list of double-zero (00) colza and rape seed varieties and variety associations, from Regulation (EC) No 2316/1999 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1251/1999 establishing a support system for producers of certain arable crops

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1251/1999 of 17 May 1999 establishing a support system for producers of certain arable crops(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1672/2000(2), and in particular Article 9 thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Article 4(1) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2316/1999(3), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1454/2000(4), lays down that Member States must limit eligibility for area payments for rape and colza to areas sown with certified seed of double-zero (00) varieties, i.e. those with a maximum glucosinolate content of 25 μmol/g and an erucic acid content of 2 % of the total fatty acid content. Those varieties must be notified and entered as such in the common catalogue of varieties established by Council Directive 70/457/EEC(5), as last amended by Directive 98/96/EC(6).

(2) Article 4(4) of Regulation (EC) No 2316/1999 lays down that, for the 2000/01 marketing year, varieties and variety associations listed in Annex II to Commission Regulation (EC) No 658/96(7), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 897/2000(8), are also eligible. The purpose of that provision was to permit updating of the common catalogue of varieties during the marketing year. However, it proved impossible to update the catalogue before the deadline laid down and rape and colza for harvest in 2001 are sown from the end of August.

(3) Consequently, in the interests of clarity and the exchange of information, a derogation should be made from Regulation (EC) No 2316/1999 and a new Community list of double-zero (00) colza and rape seed varieties and variety associations should be established for the 2001/02 marketing year on the basis of the most recent information sent by the Member States.

(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

For the 2001/02 marketing year and notwithstanding Article 4(1) of Regulation (EC) No 2316/1999, areas sown with certified seed of double-zero (00) colza and rape seed varieties and variety associations listed in the Annex hereto shall be eligible for the area payments provided for in Regulation (EC) No 1251/1999.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
