of 31 July 2001
amending Regulation (EC) No 562/2000 as regards vacuum-packing of certain cuts of intervention beef and correcting Regulation (EC) No 1209/2001
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in beef and veal(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1512/2001(2), and in particular Article 47(8) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 562/2000 of 15 March 2000 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 as regards the buying-in of beef(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1082/2001(4), lays down in particular rules on the packing of cuts immediately after boning of the meat and specific requirements for intervention boning.
(2) On the basis of experience, it is necessary to clarify the situation with regard to the possibility of vacuum-packing certain individual cuts of intervention beef. Regulation (EC) No 562/2000 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(3) Article 1(2)(b) of the English version of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1209/2001 of 20 June 2001 derogating from Regulation (EC) No 562/2000 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 as regards the buying-in of beef(5), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1496/2001(6), contains an error. Therefore, this Regulation should be corrected.
(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Beef and Veal,
