(notified under document number C(2006) 6717)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2007/10/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 91/496/EEC of 15 July 1991 laying down the principles governing the organisation of veterinary checks on animals entering the Community from third countries and amending Directives 89/662/EEC, 90/425/EEC and 90/675/EEC (1), and in particular Article 18(7) thereof,
Having regard to Council Directive 97/78/EC of 18 December 1997 laying down the principles governing the organisation of veterinary checks on products entering the Community from third countries (2), and in particular Article 22(6) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Newcastle disease is a highly contagious viral disease in poultry and birds and there is a risk that the disease agent might be introduced via international trade in live poultry and poultry products.
(2) Commission Decision 2005/648/EC of 8 September 2005 concerning protection measures in relation to Newcastle disease in Bulgaria (3) was adopted following an outbreak of Newcastle disease in the administrative district of Vratsa. That Decision suspends the importation of live poultry, ratites, farmed and wild feathered game and hatching eggs, fresh meat and meat preparations and meat products from these species.
(3) Bulgaria confirmed outbreaks of Newcastle disease in one municipality of the administrative district of Dobrich and in one municipality of the administrative district of Razgrad in Bulgaria.
(4) Taking account of the current epidemiology situation in Bulgaria in relation to Newcastle disease and the fact that this country has applied certain disease control measures and has sent further information on the disease situation to the Commission, it appears that the situation in Bulgaria, except for the districts of Vratsa, Blagoevgrad, Kardzhali, Burgas (excluding the municipalities of Burgas and Sungurlare), for the municipality of Dobrichka situated in the district of Dobrich and for the municipality of Kubrat situated in the district of Razgrad is still satisfactory. It is therefore appropriate to limit the suspension of imports to those regions.
(5) The Annex to Decision 2005/648/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(6) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee of the Food Chain and Animal Health,
In Decision 2005/648/EC the Annex is replaced by the Annex to this Decision.
Member States shall immediately take the necessary measures to comply with this Decision and publish those measures. They shall immediately inform the Commission thereof.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

totally suspending certain customs duties applicable by the Community of Ten to imports from Spain and Portugal
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, and in particular Articles 33 and 192 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas the progressive dismantling of Spanish tariffs has notably improved access to the hitherto heavily protected Spanish market; whereas, however, the economic impact of the progressive reductions in the customs duties applied by the Community of Ten to imports of Spanish industrial products is relatively modest because of the low level of the basic customs duties;
Whereas, in the interests of parallelism and non-discrimination, identical measures should be applied in respect of Portuguese products for which customs duties have not yet been abolished;
Whereas the trade deficit situation of the new Member States should be improved;
Whereas, by Regulation (EEC) No 3482/88 (1), the Council has already defined a specific system of partial suspension of customs duties for preparations and preserves of sardines,
The collection of customs duties applicable in the Community of Ten pursuant to the Act of Accession to imports of the following products from Spain and Portugal shall be totally suspended:
- products listed in Annex II to the Treaty insofar as they are the subject of Council Regulation (EEC) No 3796/81 of 29 December 1981 on the common organization of the market in fishery products (2), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3468/88 (3), excluding the goods listed in the Annex to this Regulation,
