of 27 December 2001

amending Regulation (EEC) No 94/92 laying down detailed rules for implementing the arrange-
ments for imports from third countries provided for in Council Regulation (EEC) No 2092/91

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2092/91 of 24
June 1991 on organic production of agricultural products and
indications referring thereto on agricultural products and food-
stuffs (1), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No
2491/2001 (2), and in particular Article 11(1) thereof,

Whereas:

The list of third countries from which certain agricul-
tural products must originate in order to be marketed
within the Community, provided for in Article 11(1) of
Regulation (EEC) No 2092/91, is set out in the Annex to
Commission Regulation (EEC) No 94/92 (3), as last
amended by Regulation (EC) No 349/2001 (4). That list
was drawn up in accordance with Article 11(2) of Regu-
lation (EEC) No 2092/91.

The Czech Republic submitted to the Commission a
request to extend the product categories, included in the
list provided for in Article 11(1) of Regulation (EEC) No
2092/91,
in order to include livestock and livestock
products. It submitted the information required pursuant
to Article 2(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 94/92.

governing production and inspection of livestock and
livestock products are equivalent to those laid down in
Regulation (EEC) No 2092/91.

However, the result of the examination revealed also
that the Czech rules relating to products bearing or
intended to bear indications referring to conversion are
not equivalent to those in Regulation (EEC) No 2092/91,
as regards products containing more than one ingredient
of agricultural origin. Consequently, these products are
not covered by the present Regulation.

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in
accordance with the opinion of
the Committee
mentioned in Article 14 of Regulation (EEC) No 2092/
91,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

The part of
concerning the Czech Republic is hereby replaced by the text in
the Annex to this Regulation.

Article 2

The examination of this information and consequent
discussion with the authorities of the Czech Republic
has led to the conclusion that in this country the rules

This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh 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.
