Commission Regulation (EC) No 982/2002

laying down the marketing standards for cultivated mushrooms
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2200/96 of 28 October 1996 on the common organisation of the market in fruit and vegetables(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 545/2002(2), and in particular Article 2(2),
Whereas:
(1) Cultivated mushrooms are among the products listed in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 2200/96 for which standards must be adopted. To that end, and in the interest of preserving transparency on the world market, account should be taken of the standard for cultivated mushrooms recommended by the Working Party on Standardisation of Perishable Produce and Quality Development of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE).
(2) Application of these standards should remove products of unsatisfactory quality from the market, bring production into line with consumer requirements and facilitate trade based on fair competition, thereby helping to improve profitability.
(3) The standards are applicable at all marketing stages. Long-distance transport, storage over a certain period and the various processes the products undergo may cause some degree of deterioration owing to the biological development of the products or their perishable nature. Account should be taken of such deterioration when applying the standard at the marketing stages following dispatch.
(4) As products in the "Extra" class have to be particularly carefully sorted and packaged, only lack of freshness and turgidity is to be taken into account in their case.
(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Fresh Fruit and Vegetables,
The marketing standard for cultivated mushrooms of genus Agaricus falling within CN code 0709 51 00 shall be as set out in the Annex.
The standard shall apply at all marketing stages under the conditions laid down in Regulation (EC) No 2200/96.
However, at stages following dispatch, products may show, in relation to the requirements of the standard, a slight lack of freshness and turgidity; products graded in classes other than the "Extra" class may show in addition slight deteriorations due to their development and their tendency to perish.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply from 1 January 2003.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

THE  COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 28  thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Article 6  (1) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1911/91 of 26 June 1991 on the application of  the provisions of Community law to the Canary Islands  (1) provides for the gradual introduction of  the Common Customs Tariff (CCT) over a transitional period not extending beyond 31 December 2000;  whereas, in accordance with Article 7 of the same Regulation the common commercial policy will  apply to the Canary Islands, without prejudice to the specific measures referred to in Article 6   (3) thereof;
Whereas paragraph 7.2 of the Annex to Council Decision 91/314/EEC of 26 June 1991 setting up a  programme of options specific to the remote and insular nature of the Canary Islands (Poseican)   (2) states that specific tariff measures must continue to be considered; whereas in principle they  must be limited to the transitional period provided for under Article 6 of Regulation (EEC) No  1911/91 for the gradual adoption of the Common Customs Tariff to the Canary Islands;
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 1605/92 of 15 June 1992 temporarily suspending the autonomous  Common Customs Tariff duties on imports of certain industrial products into the Canary Islands  (3)  totally suspended until 31 December 1995 CCT duties applicable to imports into the Canary Islands  of the products listed in the Annex to the Regulation which are intended for the Canary Islands'  domestic market;
Whereas, in accordance with Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 1605/92, the Commission has during  1995 examined the effect of measures adopted in favour of the economy of the Canary Islands;  whereas on that basis it intends to submit to the Council a proposal for a series of measures for  the period after 31 December 1995;
Whereas because of that circumstance the Council is not in a position to act on the said proposal  before the expiry of Regulation (EEC) No 1605/92; whereas that Regulation should therefore be  extended to 31 March 1996,
In Article 1  (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 1605/92, the date '31  December 1995' shall be replaced by that of '31 March 1996'.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in  the Official Journal of the European Communities.
