Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 4042/89 of 19 December 1989 on the improvement of the conditions under which fishery and aquaculture products are processed and marketed (1), and in particular Article 8 (3) thereof,
Whereas after consultation with the Standing Committee for the Fishing Industry,
Whereas Council Directive 91/492/EEC of 15 July 1991 laying down the health conditions for the production and placing on the market of live bivalve molluscs (2) and Council Directive 91/493/EEC of 22 July 1991 laying down the health conditions for the production and the placing on the market of fishery products (3), establish a harmonization of requirements for health conditions in respect to production, marketing and processing of the said products;

Council Regulation (EC) No 567/2004
of 22 March 2004
amending Regulation (EC) No 1257/1999 on support for rural development from the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund (EAGGF)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to the Treaty concerning the accession of the Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia to the European Union(1), and in particular Article 2(3) thereof,
Having regard to the Act concerning the conditions of accession of the Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia(2), and in particular Article 57(2) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament,
Whereas:
(1) Chapter Va of Council Regulation (EC) No 1257/1999 of 17 May 1999 on support for rural development from the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund (EAGGF)(3) provides for a support measure to assist farmers meeting recently introduced binding standards.
(2) As a result of accession, farmers in the Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia must deal with a large number of new standards based on Community legislation which they have to respect from the date of accession or at the later date. It is essential to provide support to cover at least a part of the cost of investments required to meet those standards. Therefore, special derogations should be laid down for implementing the "meeting standards" measure in the new Member States.
(3) Regulation (EC) No 1257/1999 should therefore be amended,
The following paragraph 2b is hereby inserted in Article 33l of Regulation (EC) No 1257/1999:
"2b. By way of derogation from Articles 21a, 21b and 21c, costs linked to investments needed to comply with a standard set by the Community before the date of accession, and binding for farmers from this date, or a later date, may be taken into consideration for determining the level of annual support. This possibility is limited to the first three years of the period of support, up to an annual ceiling of EUR 25000 per farm. During this investment period, the degressivity provided for in Article 21c shall not apply. Loss of income and additional costs resulting from compliance with the standard may not be taken into consideration until the end of the investment period.
Investments supported under the first subparagraph are not eligible for the support provided for in Chapter I."
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 May 2004, subject to the entry into force of the 2003 Act of Accession(4).
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
COMMISSION  DECISION
of 21 August 1984
accepting an undertaking in connection with the anti-dumping proceeding concerning imports of certain angles, shapes and sections, of iron or steel, originating in the German Democratic Republic, and terminating that proceeding
(84/409/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2176/84 of 23 July 1984 on protection against dumped or subsidized imports from countries not members of the European Economic Community (1), and in particular Article 10 thereof,
After consultation within the Advisory Committee as provided for under the above Regulation,
Whereas:
A. Provisional action
(1) The Commission, by Regulation (EEC) No 1129/84 (2), imposed a provisional anti-dumping duty on imports of certain angles, shapes and sections, of iron or steel, originating in the German Democratic Republic.
B. Subsequent procedure
(2) Following the imposition of the provisional anti-dumping duty, the exporter of the product concerned made its views known in writing and requested an opportunity to be heard by the Commission, which was granted.
C. Dumping
(3) No new evidence on dumping has been received since the imposition of the provisional duty; therefore the Commission confirms its findings on dumping as set out in Regulation (EEC) No 1129/84 to be definitive.
D. Injury
(4) No fresh evidence regarding injury to the Community industry has been submitted.
The Commission has therefore confirmed the conclusions on injury, reached in Regulation (EEC) No 1129/84.
E. Community interest
(5) In view of the particularly serious difficulties facing the Community industry, the Commission has come to the conclusion that it is in the Community's interests that action be taken.
F. Undertaking
(6) The exporter concerned was informed of the main findings of the investigation and commented on them. An undertaking was subsequently offered by the exporter concerning its exports of certain angles, shapes and sections, of iron or steel, to the Community.
(7) The effect of the said undertaking will be to increase export prices to the level which the Commission considers necessary to eliminate injury. These increases in no case exceed the dumping margins found in the investigation.
(8) In these circumstances, the undertaking offered is considered acceptable and the proceeding may, therefore, be terminated without imposition of a definitive anti-dumping duty.
(9) No objection to this course was raised in the Advisory Committee,
The undertaking given by Metallurgiehandel-Volkseigener Aussen- und Binnenhandelsbetrieb, Berlin, German Democratic Republic, in connection with the anti-dumping proceeding concerning imports of certain angles, shapes and sections, of iron or steel, originating in the German Democratic Republic and falling within subheading ex 73.11 A III of the Common Customs Tariff, corresponding to NIMEXE code 73.11-31, is hereby accepted.
The anti-dumping proceeding referred to in Article 1 is hereby terminated.

Whereas:
(1) The animal health conditions and veterinary certification for imports of fresh meat from certain European countries are laid down in Commission Decision 98/371/EC(3), as last amended by Decision 2002/940/EC(4).
(2) Imports of fresh meat for human consumption of domestic animals of the porcine species from Estonia and Lithuania were not authorised due to animal health reasons, concerning in particular the control of classical swine fever.
(3) The Estonian and Lithuanian competent veterinary authorities have submitted a request to be authorised to export pig meat to the Community and have supported their request with information concerning the health status of the swine in Estonia and Lithuania and their control of classical swine fever.
(4) In February 2003 Commission veterinary missions were carried out to assess the animal health situation in Estonia and in Lithuania.

The Estonian and Lithuanian competent veterinary authorities have committed themselves that, for the purpose of exporting pig meat, a list of pig holdings kept under regular veterinary supervisions and where appropriate controls are carried out to exclude any use of catering waste for feeding to pigs will be established.
