      COUNCIL DECISION
   
   of 18 June 2007
   amending Decision 2001/264/EC adopting the Council’s security regulations
   (2007/438/EC)
   THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
   Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community and in particular Article 207(3) thereof,
   Having regard to Council Decision 2006/683/EC, Euratom of 15 September 2006 adopting the Council’s Rules of Procedure (1), and in particular Article 24 thereof,
   Whereas:
   
               (1)
            
            
               Appendices 1 and 2 to the Security Regulations of the Council of the European Union annexed to Council Decision 2001/264/EC of 19 March 2001 adopting the Council’s security regulations (2) contain a list of national security authorities and a table of comparison including national security classifications, respectively. Appendices 1 and 2 to the Security Regulations of the Council of the European Union were last modified by Council Decision 2005/571/EC of 12 July 2005 amending Decision 2001/264/EC (3).
            
         
               (2)
            
            
               On 25 April 2005, the Republic of Bulgaria and Romania signed the Treaty concerning their accession to the European Union, which entered into force on 1 January 2007.
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               According to Article 2(2) of Decision 2001/264/EC, Member States have to take appropriate measures to ensure that, when EU classified information is handled, the Council’s security regulations are respected.
            
         
               (4)
            
            
               In order to take into account the accession of the Republic of Bulgaria and Romania in the Appendices referred to in Recital (1), it is therefore necessary, from a technical point of view, to amend Decision 2001/264/EC,
            
         HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:
   Article 1
   In Decision 2001/264/EC, Appendix 1 and Appendix 2 shall be replaced by the text appearing in the Annex to this Decision.
   Article 2
   This Decision shall take effect on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

         (1)  Germany: VS = Verschlusssache.
      
         (2)  France: the classification Très Secret Défense, which covers governmental priority issues, may be changed only with the Prime Minister’s authorisation.
      
         (3)  France does not use the classification category “DIFFUSION RESTREINTE” in its national system. France handles and protects documents bearing the marking “RESTREINT UE” according to its national laws and regulations in force, which are not less stringent than the provisions of the Council’s security regulations.
