amending Annex 3 to Regulation (EC) No 560/2002 imposing provisional safeguard measures against imports of certain steel products
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 3285/94 of 22 December 1994 on common rules for imports and repealing Regulation (EC) No 518/94(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2474/2000(2),

In each case, the amount of the tariff quota should have been greater than the amount which was specified.
(3) The amount of the tariff quota for product 5 should be 1114158 tonnes instead of 935630 tonnes; that for product 6 should be 74678 tonnes instead of 41444 tonnes; and that for product 10 should be 706964 tonnes instead of 700446 tonnes. In consequence, it is necessary to amend Annex 3 to that Regulation,
The fourth column of Annex 3 to Regulation (EC) No 560/2002, which specifies the amount (in tonnes) of each tariff quota, is amended as follows:
- in relation to product 5, by substituting the number "1114158" for "935630",
- in relation to product 6, by substituting the number "74678" for "41444",
- in relation to product 10, by substituting the number "706964" for "700446".
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply from 29 March 2002.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

(2006/213/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Directive 89/106/EEC of 21 December 1988, on the approximation of laws, regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States relating to construction products (1), and in particular Article 20(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Directive 89/106/EEC envisages that in order to take account of different levels of protection for construction works at national, regional or local level, it may be necessary to establish in the interpretative documents classes corresponding to the performance of products in respect of each essential requirement. Those documents have been published as the ‘Communication of the Commission with regard to the interpretative documents of Directive 89/106/EEC’ (2).
(2) With respect to the essential requirement of safety in the event of fire, interpretative document No 2 lists a number of interrelated measures which together define the fire safety strategy to be variously developed in the Member States.
(3) Interpretative document No 2 identifies one of those measures as the limitation of the generation and spread of fire and smoke within a given area by limiting the potential of construction products to contribute to the full development of a fire.
(4) The level of that limitation may be expressed only in terms of the different levels of reaction-to-fire performance of the products in their end-use application;
(5) By way of harmonised solution, a system of classes was adopted in Commission Decision 2000/147/EC of 8 February 2000 implementing Council Directive 89/106/EEC as regards the classification of the reaction-to-fire performance of construction products (3).
(6) In the case of wood flooring and solid wood panelling and cladding it is necessary to use the classification established in Decision 2000/147/EC.
(7) The reaction-to-fire performance of many construction products and/or materials, within the classification provided for in Decision 2000/147/EC, is well established and sufficiently well known to fire regulators in Member States that they do not require testing for this particular performance characteristic.
(8) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Construction,
The construction products and/or materials which satisfy all the requirements of the performance characteristic ‘reaction to fire’ without need for further testing are set out in the Annex.
The specific classes to be applied to different construction products and/or materials, within the reaction-to-fire classification adopted in Decision 2000/147/EC, are set out in the Annex to this Decision.
Products shall be considered in relation to their end-use application, where relevant.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 2102/2001(2) fixes the indicative quantities for system B export licences other than those sought in the context of food aid.
(2) In the light of the information available to the Commission today, there is a risk that the indicative quantities laid down for the current export period for lemons will shortly be exceeded. This overrun will prejudice the proper working of the export refund scheme in the fruit and vegetables sector.
(3) To avoid this situation, applications for system B licences for lemons exported after 21 December 2001 should be rejected until the end of the current export period,
Applications for system B export licences for lemons submitted pursuant to Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 2102/2001, export declarations for which are accepted after 21 December 2001 and before 15 January 2002, are hereby rejected.
