COUNCIL  REGULATION (EEC) No 1877/89

increasing the volume of the Community tariff quota opened for 1989 for ferro-chromium containing more than 6 % by weight of carbon
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 4187/88 (1) opened for the year 1989 a zero-duty Community tariff quota for ferro-chromium containing more than 6 % by weight of carbon; whereas the quota volume was fixed provisionally at 300 000 tonnes;
Whereas it can be estimated from the economic data now available on consumption, production and imports under other preferential tariff arrangements that immediate Community requirements for imports of this product from non-member countries could during the current year reach levels higher than the volume laid down by Regulation (EEC) No 4187/88; whereas, in order not to disturb the equilibrium of the market for this product and to ensure both an outlet for Community production and sufficiently secure supplies for user industries, the quota volume should be increased by a quantity corresponding to the needs of user industries until the Autumn, i.e. by 150 000 tonnes; whereas this increase in the quota volume does not preclude the possibility of a further adjustment in the Autumn;
The volume of the Community tariff quota opened by Regulation (EEC) No 4187/88 for ferro-chromium containing more than 6 % by weight of carbon shall be increased from 300 000 tonnes or 450 000 tonnes.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 2073/2005 (2) lays down the microbiological criteria for certain micro-organisms and the implementing rules to be complied with by food business operators in respect of the general and specific hygiene requirements referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 852/2004, and in particular a process hygiene criterion for Salmonella on pig carcases in order to control contamination during slaughter.
(2) The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) adopted on 3 October 2011 a Scientific Opinion on the public health hazards to be covered by inspection of meat (swine) (3), which identifies Salmonella as a high risk for public health related to the consumption of pigmeat, and recommends prevention of contamination of pig carcases with Salmonella. EFSA recommends, inter alia, to strengthen the process hygiene criterion for Salmonella on pig carcases.
(3) In order to reduce the Salmonella prevalence on pig carcases, the control on hygiene during slaughter should be strengthened in accordance with the provisions in Commission Regulation (EU) No 218/2014 of 7 March 2014 amending Annexes to Regulations (EC) No 853/2004 and (EC) No 854/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Commission Regulation (EC) No 2074/2005 (4) and consequently the number of positive samples should be reduced.
