COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION
of 16 June 2014
amending Council Directive 2002/56/EC as regards the date laid down in Article 21(3) until which Member States are authorised to extend the validity of decisions concerning equivalence of seed potatoes from third countries
(notified under document C(2014) 3877)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2014/367/EU)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Directive 2002/56/EC of 13 June 2002 on the marketing of seed potatoes (1), and in particular the second subparagraph of Article 21(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Directive 2002/56/EC provides that, with effect from certain dates, Member States may no longer determine for themselves the equivalence of seed potatoes harvested in third countries with seed potatoes harvested within the Union and complying with that Directive.
(2) However, as work to establish a Union equivalence for seed potatoes from all the third countries concerned had not been completed, Directive 2002/56/EC permitted Member States to extend until 31 March 2014 the validity of equivalence decisions which they had already taken for seed potatoes from certain third countries not covered by a Union equivalence. This date was chosen by reference to the end of the period where seed potatoes are placed on the market.
(3) Since this work still has not been completed and a new marketing season will start by the end of the year 2014, it is necessary to authorise Member States to extend the validity of their national equivalence decisions.
(4) Directive 2002/56/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(5) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Seeds and Propagating Material for Agriculture, Horticulture and Forestry,
In the first subparagraph of Article 21(3) of Directive 2002/56/EC, ‘31 March 2014’ is replaced by ‘31 March 2017’.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

Having regard to Council Directive 71/161/EEC of 30 March 1971 on external quality standards for forest reproductive material marketed within the Community (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3768/85 (2), and in particular Article 15 thereof,
Having regard to the request submitted by the Federal Republic of Germany,
Whereas in Germany the production of seed of Quercus pedunculata and Quercus sessiliflora satisfying the requirements laid down in Directive 71/161/EEC was insufficient in 1989 and is not adequate to supply Germany's needs;
Whereas it has not been possible to cover those needs satisfactorily at this stage by the use of seed from other Member States, or even from non-member countries, satisfying all the requirements laid down in the said Directive;
Whereas Germany should therefore be authorized to permit, for a limited period, the marketing of seed of the abovementioned species subject to less stringent requirements;
Whereas Council Directive 66/404/EEC on the marketing of forest reproductive reproduct material (3), as last amended by Directive 88/332/EEC (4), provides that reproductive material may be marketed only if it is accompanied by a document bearing certain  details of the reproductive material in question;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Seeds and Propagating Material for Agriculture, Horticulture and Forestry,
The Federal Republic of Germany is hereby authorized to permit the marketing on its territory of a maximum of 25 000 kilograms of seed of Quercus pedunculata Ehrh. and 20 000 kilograms of seed of Quercus sessiliflora Sal. which does not  satisfy the requirements relating to specific purity in Annex I to Directive 71/161/EEC, provided that the following requirement is satisfied: the document required under Article 9 of Directive 66/404/EEC shall state: 'Seed not satisfying the standards  in respect of specific purity'.
The Federal Republic of Germany shall notify the Commission before 1 January 1992 of the quantities of seed marketed on its territory pursuant to this Decision. The Commission shall inform the other Member States thereof.
The authorization provided for in Article 1, in so far as it concerns the first marketing, shall expire on 30 November 1991 and, in so far as it does not concern the first marketing, shall expire on 31 December 1993.
This Decision is addressed to the Federal Republic of Germany.
