THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 November 2012 on quality schemes for agricultural products and foodstuffs (1), and in particular Article 52(2) thereof,

Whereas:







(1)


Pursuant to Article 90(1) and (2) of Regulation (EU) 2024/1143 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2), which repealed Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012, the latter Regulation remains applicable to applications for registration of geographical indications received by the Commission and published in the Official Journal of the European Union for opposition before 13 May 2024.












(2)

(3)


As no reasoned statement of opposition under Article 51 of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012 has been received by the Commission, the name ‘Lofotlam’ should therefore be entered in the register,





HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:



Article 1
The name ‘Lofotlam’ (PGI) is hereby entered in the register.

This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

Question referred

Does Article 10 of Trade Mark Directive (EU) 2015/2436 (1) preclude the application, in a dispute concerning a trade mark infringement, of a national principle whereby the proprietor of a trade mark, also in cases other than those covered by Article 18(1) and Article 9(1) or (2) of the Trade Mark Directive, could forfeit the right conferred on him or her by Article 10(2) and (3) to prohibit a third party from using a sign the use of which adversely affects or is liable adversely to affect one of the functions of the trade mark, on the ground that, though being aware of the use of the mark, he or she has not applied for prohibition of that use within a reasonable time?
