of 29 June 1999
amending Regulation (EC) No 1486/95 opening and providing for the administration of a tariff quota in the pigmeat sector
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1095/96 of 18 June 1996 on the implementation of the concessions set out in Schedule CXL drawn up in the wake of the conclusion of the GATT XXIV.6 negotiations(1), and in particular Article 1 thereof,
(1) Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 1486/95(2), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1390/98(3), opened quotas for a specific period; whereas, in the framework of the World Trade Organisation, the Commission committed itself to increasing tariff quotas for certain products in the pigmeat sector; whereas it is necessary to specify the new quantities covered by the import arrangements and to ensure that imports of the quantities referred to in the Annex are spread over the period 1 July 1999 to 30 June 2000;

Regulation (EC) No 1486/95 is hereby amended as follows:

COMMISSION DECISION of 24 June 1996 on the procedure for attesting the conformity of construction products pursuant to Article 20 (2) of Council Directive 89/106/EEC as regards fixed fire-fighting systems (Text with EEA relevance) (96/577/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council 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), as amended by Directive 93/68/EEC (2), and in particular Article 13 (4) thereof,
Whereas the Commission is required to select, as between the two procedures pursuant to Article 13 (3) of Directive 89/106/EEC for attesting the conformity of a product, the 'least onerous possible procedure consistent with safety`; whereas this means that it is necessary to decide whether, for a given product or family of products, the existence of a factory production control system under the responsibility of the manufacture is a necessary and sufficient condition for attestation of conformity, or whether, for reasons related to compliance with the criteria mentioned in Article 13 (4), the intervention of an approved certification body is required;
Whereas Article 13 (4) requires that the procedure thus determined must be indicated in the mandates and in the technical specifications; whereas, therefore, it is desirable to define the concept of products or family of products as used in the mandates and in the technical specifications;
Whereas the two procedures provided for in Article 13 (3) are described in detail in Annex III to Directive 89/106/EEC; whereas it is necessary therefore to specify clearly the methods by which the two procedures must be implemented, by reference to Annex III, for each product or family of products, since Annex III gives preference to certain systems;
Whereas the procedure referred to in point (a) of Article 13 (3) corresponds to the systems set out in the first possibility, without continuous surveillance, and the second and third possibilities of point (ii) of Section 2 of Annex III, and the procedure referred to in point (b) of Article 13 (3) corresponds to the systems set out in point (i) of Section 2 of Annex III, and in the first possibility with continuous surveillance, of point (ii) of Section 2 of Annex III;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Construction,
The products set out in Annex I shall have their conformity attested by a procedure whereby, in addition to a factory production control system operated by the manufacturer, an approved certification body is involved in assessment and surveillance of the production control or of the product itself.
The procedure for attesting conformity as set out in Annex II shall be indicated in mandates for harmonized standards.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

Whereas it is appropriate to divide into two instalments the volume of the increase, the first part being allocated among certain Member States in proportion to their foreseeable additional needs, and the second held as a Community reserve to cover the possible additional needs of any Member State,
The volume of the Community tariff quota opened by Regulation (EEC) No 1726/86 for animals of certain mountain breeds, falling within subheading ex 01.02 A II of the Common Customs Tariff, shall be raised from 38 000 to 42 600 head.
1. A first instalment of the additional volume referred to in Article 1 and amounting to 2 500 head shall be allocated among certain Member States as follows:
1.2 // - Greece:   // 500 head,   // - Italy:   // 2 000 head.
2. The second instalment, being 2 100 head, shall constitute the reserve. The reserve provided for in Article 3 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 1726/86 shall thus be raised from 8 000 to 10 100 head.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 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.
