Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (1),
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 951/2006 of 30 June 2006 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 as regards trade with third countries in the sugar sector (2), and in particular Article 7e in conjunction with Article 9(1) thereof,

Whereas:
(1) The Commission is required, by virtue of Regulation (EC) No 2320/2002, to adopt measures for the implementation of common basic standards for aviation security throughout the European Union. Commission Regulation (EC) No 622/2003 of 4 April 2003 laying down measures for the implementation of the common basic standards on aviation security(2) was the first act containing such measures.
(2) In accordance with Regulation 2320/2002 and in order to prevent unlawful acts, the measures laid down in Annex to Regulation (EC) No 622/2003 should be secret and should not be published. The same rule necessarily applies to any amending act.
(3) There is, none the less, a need for a harmonised list, accessible to the public, setting out separately those articles that are prohibited from being carried by passengers into restricted areas and the cabin of an aircraft and those articles that are prohibited from being carried in baggage intended for stowage in the aircraft's hold.
(4) It is recognised that such a list can never be exhaustive. The appropriate authority, therefore, should be permitted to prohibit other articles in addition to those listed. It is appropriate that before and during the check-in phase passengers should be informed clearly of all articles that are prohibited.
(5) There should also be harmonised rules governing staff, including flight crew, and their carrying of articles prohibited to passengers that are required to enable them to perform their duties.
(6) Regulation (EC) No 622/2003 should be amended accordingly.
(7) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on Civil Aviation Security,

COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 2027/91  of 8 July 1991  increasing the volume of the Community tariff quota opened for 1991 for ferro-chromium containing more than 6 % by weight of carbon
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community and in particular Article 28 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 3402/90 (1) opened for the year 1991 a zero-duty Community tariff quota for ferro-chromium containing more than 6 % by weight of carbon and its 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 third countries could during the  current year reach levels higher than the volume laid down by Regulation (EEC) No 3402/90; 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 125 000 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 3402/90 for ferro-chromium containing more than 6 % by weight of carbon shall be increased from 300 000 tonnes to 425 000 tonnes.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities. This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
