COMMISSION DECISION of 19 October 1995 concerning a request for exemption lodged by the United Kingdom pursuant to Article 8 (2) (c) of Council Directive 70/156/EEC on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the type-approval of motor vehicles and their trailers (Only the English text is authentic) (95/459/EC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 70/156/EEC of 6 February 1970 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the type-approval of motor vehicles and their trailers (1), as last amended by Commission Directive 93/81/EEC (2),

Whereas on 30 August 1994 the United Kingdom authorities lodged a request for approval, by the Commission, of an exemption pursuant to Article 8 (2) (c) of Directive 70/156/EEC; whereas this request was accompanied by a report containing the information required by the abovementioned Article 8; whereas this request concerns the fitting of outside rear-view mirrors to a particular type of vehicle, namely a motor vehicle with a reclined fixed-back driver's seat located at the centre of the vehicle;

Whereas the reasons stated, whereby the fitting of an outside rear-view mirror to this particular type of vehicle does not meet the requirements of Commission Directive 88/321/EEC (3), particularly with regard to the driver's field of vision, are justified; whereas the descriptions of the tests, the results thereof and the action taken in order to ensure road safety are satisfactory and ensure a level of safety equivalent to that provided by the Directive in force;

Whereas the Directive concerned will be amended in order, inter alia, to enable outside rear-view mirrors to be fitted correctly to vehicles with the driver's seat located in a central position; whereas, this being the case, it is therefore justified to allow the type of vehicle covered by this request for an exemption to benefit immediately from the granting of EC type-approval;

Whereas the measure provided for in this Decision is in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for the adaptation to technical progress of the Directives for the removal of technical barriers to trade in the motor vehicles sector, as set up by Council Directive 70/156/EEC,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The Commission hereby approves the request lodged by the United Kingdom on 30 August 1994, pursuant to Article 8 (2) (c) of Directive 70/156/EEC, for an exemption concerning the fitting of outside rear-view mirrors to a type of vehicle with a reclined fixed-back driver's seat located at the centre of the vehicle with a view to granting EC type-approval.

Article 2

This Decision is addressed to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

COMMISSION DECISION of 1 December 1995 authorizing the Member States to permit temporarily the marketing of seed of rye (Secale cereale L.) not satisfying the requirements of Council Directive 66/402/EEC (95/508/EC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European 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 95/6/EC (2), and in particular Article 17 thereof,

Having regard to the requests submitted by the Kingdom of Denmark and the United Kingdom,

Whereas in Denmark and the United Kingdom the production of seed of winter varieties of rye (Secale cereale L.) satisfying the requirements of Directive 66/402/EEC in relation to minimum germination capacity has been insufficient in 1995 and is therefore not adequate to meet those countries' 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 Denmark and the United Kingdom should therefore be authorized to permit for a period expiring on 31 December 1995 the marketing of seed of the abovementioned species subject to less stringent requirements;

Whereas, moreover, other Member States which are able to supply Denmark and the United Kingdom with such seed not satisfying the requirements of the Directive should be authorized to permit the marketing of such seed;

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 Denmark and the United Kingdom are authorized to permit, for a period expiring on 31 December 1995 the marketing in their territories of a maximum of 600 tonnes of seed of winter varieties of rye (Secale cereale L.) 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 75 % of pure seed;

(b) the official label shall bear the endorsement 'minimum germination capacity 75 %.`

Article 2

Member States other than the applicant Member States are also authorized to permit, on the terms set out in Article 1 and for the purposes intended by the applicant Member States, the marketing in their territories of the seed authorized to be marketed under this Decision.

Article 3

Member States shall immediately notify the Commission and the other Member States of the various quantities of seed labelled and permitted to be marketed in their territories pursuant to this Decision.

Article 4

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
