Whereas:
(1)
In accordance with the first subparagraph of Article 9(1) and pursuant to Article 17(2) of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006, the Commission has examined the application from Italy for approval of an amendment to the specification for the protected designation of origin ‘Prosciutto di Parma’, registered by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1107/96 (2).
