It is worth recalling that this topic has given rise to much controversy in international fora. Mainly
developing States have taken a very reserved stance on this. In these circumstances, the Commission will
draw upon both the experience gathered with existing certification schemes as well as ongoing conceptual
work within the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO).

A Community initiative should have the potential
for bridging gaps and it should be capable of
counteracting an increasing number of biased or poorly controlled private labelling programmes.
Ecolabelling schemes should be accessible to all operators on a non-discriminatory basis, be adapted to
the needs of small and medium-size enterprises in terms of the costs involved and be fully consistent with
relevant World Trade Organisation (WTO) rules.

Prior notification of a concentration

(Case COMP/M.3262 — Salzgitter/Volkswagen/JV)

Candidate case for simplified procedure

(2003/C 300/05)

(Text with EEA relevance)

On 4 December 2003 the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant
1.
to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 4064/89 (1), as
last amended by Regulation (EC)
No 1310/97 (2), by which the German undertakings Salzgitter AG and Volkswagen AG acquire within
the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Regulation joint control of a newly-created joint-venture (‘JV’) by way
of purchase of shares.

2.

The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:

— Salzgitter: manufacture and distribution of a wide range of steel products;

industrial components,

systems and facilities,

— Volkswagen: development and manufacture of passenger cars and commercial vehicles,

— JV:

installation and operation of a processing plant for shredder residues from the processing of

scrapped cars.

3.
On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified concentration could fall within
the scope of Regulation (EEC) No 4064/89. However, the final decision on this point is reserved. Pursuant
to the Commission notice on a simplified procedure for treatment of certain concentrations under Regu-
lation (EEC) No 4064/89 (3),
it should be noted that this case is a candidate for treatment under the
procedure set out in the notice.

referred to in Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 1577/96
was not exceeded in 2003/04, whereas the maximum
guaranteed area for vetches,
increased by the unused
balance of the maximum guaranteed area for lentils and
chickpeas, was exceeded by 10,37 % in 2003/04. The
