of 19 December 2000

products of animal origin, fishery products or live bivalve molluscs

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

(4)

(2001/4/EC)

Having regard to Council Decision 95/408/EC of 22 June 1995
on the conditions for drawing up, for an interim period, provi-
sional lists of third country establishments from which Member
States are authorised to import certain products of animal
fishery products or live bivalve molluscs (1) and in
origin,
particular Article 9 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas:

In order to prevent any disruptions in traditional trade
patterns, the interim period during which a simplified
system may be applied to the drawing up of lists of third
country establishments exporting certain products of
animal origin, fishery products or live bivalve molluscs
should be extended,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

(1)

(2)

(3)

The interim period provided by Decision 95/408/EC
ends on 31 December 2000.

In Article 9 of Decision 95/408/EC the date ‘31 December
2000’ shall be replaced by ‘31 December 2003’.

For administrative reasons, the drawing up of the defin-
itive lists of third country establishments from which
Member States are authorised to import certain products
in accordance with the Directives on health rules applic-
able to those products has been delayed.

The proposed revision of certain veterinary legislation as
set out in the White Paper on Food Safety will include a
modified regime for the approval of third country estab-
lishments from which Member States are authorised to
import certain products.

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

(1)

(2)

Article 63 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1623/
2000 (2), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 2409/
2000 (3),
lays down rules for applying distillation as
provided for in Article 29 of Regulation (EC) No 1493/
1999, and paragraph 4 of that Article sets the dates for
the twice-monthly notification by the Member States of
conctracts concluded for
such distillation. To take
account of the holidays around Christmas in certain
the first notification in
the date of
Member States,
January should be put back.

The first subparagraph of Article 100(2)(b) of Regulation
(EC) No 1623/2000 sets certain ceilings on alcohol
losses admissible in products distilled from wine during
the various stages of storage and transport. The second
and third subparagraphs of that paragraph lay down
rules on the combined application of those limits. Those
rules are wrong and they should be corrected.

The following sentence is hereby added to Article 63(4) of
Regulation (EC) No 1623/2000:

‘However, in January that notification shall be made on the
10th instead of the fifth day of the month.’

to sheep and goat
producers in less-favoured areas to compensate them for
the unfavourable consequences of measures introduced
to limit the granting of the ewe premium.

Regulation (EEC) No 3493/90 (3) provides for a defini-
tion of a producer in a less-favoured area. This definition
has given rise to problems of interpretation and has also
made checks difficult by obliging the physical presence
of animals on the land to be verified. It is necessary to
make the rules easier for farmers to understand the said
definition and to simplify checks. Therefore the defini-

tion of a producer in a less-favoured area should be
amended,
