THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to the Treaty of Accession of Bulgaria and Romania,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Bulgaria and Romania, and in particular Article 42 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Decision 2007/27/EC of 22 December 2006 adopting certain transitional measures concerning deliveries of raw milk to processing establishments and the processing of this raw milk in Romania with regard to the requirements of Regulation (EC) Nos 852/2004 and 853/2004 of the European Parliament and of Council (1) sets out lists of milk processing establishments in Romania that comply with the structural requirements laid down in Regulation (EC) No 852/2004 (compliant establishments) and are authorized to receive and process raw milk which is not in compliance with Regulation (EC) No 853/2004 (non-compliant milk).
(2) Chapter I of the Annex to Decision 2007/27/EC lists compliant establishments authorised to receive and process without separation compliant and non-compliant milk while Chapter II of that Annex lists compliant establishments authorised to receive and process separately compliant and non-compliant milk.
(3) Certain establishments listed in Chapter II of the Annex to Decision 2007/27/EC have practical difficulties to handle properly two separate production lines. Some of them have chosen to process only compliant milk and should therefore be deleted from the list in Chapter II of the Annex to Decision 2007/27/EC. Other establishments have chosen to process compliant and non-compliant milk without separation and should therefore be deleted from that list and added to the list in Chapter I of that Annex.
(4) Furthermore, certain establishments which do not fulfil all Community structural requirements should be deleted from the lists of the Annex to Decision 2007/27/EC.
(5) Decision 2007/27/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(6) For the sake of clarity, the Annex to Decision 2007/27/EC should be replaced.
(7) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion with the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
