Whereas:
(1) There is a need for a comprehensive and comparable set of data on the transition from work to retirement in order to monitor progress towards the common objectives of the Europe 2020 Strategy and of the open method of coordination in the area of social protection and social inclusion. Both processes identify promotion of active ageing and prolongation of working life as priorities for action, in particular under guideline 7 of the Europe 2020 Integrated Guidelines (Increasing labour market participation and reducing structural unemployment) and under the objective of adequate and sustainable pensions adopted by the European Council in March 2006 on the basis of the Commission communication ‘Working together, working better: A new framework for the open coordination of social protection and inclusion policies in the European Union’.
(2) Decision No 1672/2006/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 2006 establishing a Community Programme for Employment and Social Solidarity — Progress (2) supports the implementation of the European Employment Strategy.

(Text with EEA relevance)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 July 2002 on the application of international accounting standards (1), and in particular Article 3(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) By Commission Regulation (EC) No 1725/2003 (2) certain international standards and interpretations that were extant at 14 September 2002 were adopted.
(2) On 2 November 2006, the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) published IFRIC Interpretation 11 IFRS 2 — Group and Treasury Share Transactions, hereinafter ‘IFRIC 11’. IFRIC 11 addresses how to apply International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 2 Share-based Payment to share-based payment arrangements involving an entity’s own equity instruments or equity instruments of another entity in the same group (e.g. equity instruments of its parent). The interpretation was required as, until now, there was no guidance on how share-based payment arrangements in which an entity receives goods or services as consideration for equity instruments of the entity’s parent should be accounted for in the entity’s financial statements.
(3) The consultation with the Technical Expert Group (TEG) of the European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG) confirms that IFRIC 11 meets the technical criteria for adoption set out in Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002.
(4) Regulation (EC) No 1725/2003 should therefore be amended accordingly.

Each company shall apply IFRIC 11 as set out in the Annex to this Regulation as from the commencement date of its 2008 financial year at the latest, except for companies with a January or February commencement date which shall apply IFRIC 11 as from the commencement date of the 2009 financial year at the latest.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
