Publication pursuant to Article 12(2) of Council Regulation (EC) No 510/2006 on the protection of geographical indications and designations of origin for agricultural products and foodstuffs, concerning a cancellation application

(2007/C 314/15)

This publication confers the right to object to the cancellation application pursuant to Article 7 of Council Regulation (EC) No 510/2006. Statements of objections must reach the Commission within six months from the date of this publication.

COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 510/2006

Cancellation request according to Article 12(2) and Article 17(2)

‘ARROZ DEL DELTA DEL EBRO’

EC No: ES/PGI/005/0336/03.03.2004

PGI PDO

1. Registered name proposed for cancellation:

‘Arroz del Delta del Ebro’ (1)

2. Member State or Third Country:

Spain

3. Type of product:

Class 1.6 — Cereals

4. Person or body making request for cancellation:

Name: Consejo Regulador de la Indicación Geográfica Protegida «Arroz del Delta del Ebro» Address: C/Prim 92 E-43870 Amposta (Tarragona) Tel. (34) 977 70 10 20 Fax (34) 977 70 01 90 E-mail: info@arrosaires.com

Nature of legitimate interest in making the request:

The cancellation request is being made by the same group which submitted the registration request, and is being submitted in parallel with the group's request to register the Protected Designation of Origin ‘Arroz del Delta del Ebro’ or ‘Arrós del Delta de l'Ebre’.

5. Reasons for cancellation:

The product was initially classified in the Autonomous Community of origin (Catalonia) as the Quality Designation ‘Arroz del Delta del Ebro’ in 1985 and was approved at national level as a Specific Designation. Accordingly, since it wished to have it protected internationally in the European Community and in order to comply with the time limits then applicable for making an application at Community level, the group applied to the Commission in 1993 to have the product registered as ‘Arroz del Delta del Ebro’ Protected Geographical Indication.

As a result, the Protected Geographical Indication ‘Arroz del Delta del Ebro’ was entered in the Community register of PDOs and PGIs on 21 June 1996, in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 17 of Regulation (EEC) No 2081/92.

The applicant group considers that ‘Arroz del Delta del Ebro’ has distinctive characteristics which can be ascribed solely to the defined geographical area or to the geographical environment and its natural and human factors, that production and processing take place fully within the defined geographical area, and that the requirements in Regulation (EC) No 510/2006 for registration as a Protected Designation of Origin have accordingly been met.

For these reasons, pursuant to Article 12(2) of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006, it requests the cancellation of ‘Arroz del Delta del Ebro’ in the Register of Designations of Origin and Protected Geographical Indications, and the simultaneous registration in that same Register of ‘Arroz del Delta del Ebro or Arrós del Delta de l'Ebre’ as a Protected Designation of Origin.

Communication from the Commission concerning the incorporation into Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 (Single CMO Regulation) of recent policy reforms in the milk and milk products and the sugar sectors

(2008/C 27/05)

Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (1) constitutes an act of simplification of the regulatory environment of the common agricultural policy (CAP). It did not intend to call into question the policy decisions underlying the common organisations of the markets (CMO) as they existed at the time when the Single CMO Regulation was proposed to the Council, i.e. in December 2006.

In parallel to the negotiations on the Single CMO Regulation, the Council introduced certain amendments into the CMOs for milk and milk products and sugar. Those amendments could no more be taken into account in view of their incorporation into the Single CMO Regulation prior to its adoption on 22 October 2007.

The amendments concerning the milk and milk products sectors are contained in Council Regulations (EC) No 1152/2007 of 26 September 2007 amending Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products (2) and Council Regulation (EC) No 1153/2007 of 26 September 2007 amending Regulation (EC) No 2597/97 laying down additional rules on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products for drinking milk (3).

The respective decisions concerning the sugar sector were made by the adoption of Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2007 of 9 October 2007 amending Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 on the common organisation of the markets in the sugar sector (4).

On 20 December 2007, the Commission adopted a proposal to the Council for an amendment of the Single CMO Regulation (5) including, amongst other amendments, the incorporation of the policy decisions contained in Regulations (EC) No 1152/2007 and (EC) No 1260/2007.

It is to be expected that these amendments will be adopted by the Council in the course of the first months of 2008.

Notice concerning a request in accordance with Article 30 of Directive 2004/17/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council — Deadline extension

Request made by a Member State

(2008/C 35/12)

On 10 January 2008 the Commission received a request in accordance with Article 30(4) of Directive 2004/17/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 31 March 2004 coordinating the procurement procedures of entities operating in the water, energy, transport and postal services sectors (1).

This request, made by the Republic of Austria, concerns electricity production in that country. A notice concerning the request was published in OJ C 14, 19.1.2008, p. 34. The initial deadline expires on 11 April 2008.

In accordance with the second sentence of Article 30(6), and since the Commission needs to obtain and examine additional information, the period within which the Commission must take a decision on this request has been extended by three months.

The final deadline is therefore 11 July 2008.

Request from a Member State

(2008/C 29/10)

On 17 January 2008, the Commission received a request under Article 30(4) of Directive 2004/17/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (1). The first working day after receipt of the request was 18 January 2008.

The request, made by Italy, concerns national and international express courier services in that country. Article 30 provides that the Directive does not apply where the activity in question is directly exposed to competition on markets to which access is not limited. This is to be assessed solely for the purposes of the Directive, without prejudice to the application of competition rules.

The Commission is allowed a period of three months from the working day referred to above to take a decision on this request. This period therefore expires on 18 April 2008.

The provisions of the third subparagraph of the abovementioned paragraph 4 are applicable. Consequently, the period allowed to the Commission may be extended by one month. Any such extension must be published.
