Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),
Whereas Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 2969/83 (3) provides for the granting of aid for the conversion into medium-term loans of short-term loans taken up before 30 November 1983 to cover farmers' requirements for the operation of the holdings referred to in Article 1 of that Regulation;
Whereas, because of the limited funds at the disposal of the agriculture credit institutions, it has been possible to accept only about one-half of the applications made; whereas, as a result, it has been possible for only part of the appropriations provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 2969/83 to be used;
Whereas the very difficult position of the farmers requires that the conversion ability should continue to be available to those farmers who have not yet benefited from the Community measure,
Regulation (EEC) No 2969/83 is hereby amended as follows:
1. In Article 2, '30 November 1983' is replaced by '1 May 1985' and the following subparagraph is added:
'However, a farmer may benefit from the aid only once.'

amending Regulation (EC) No 92/2002 imposing a definitive anti-dumping duty and collecting definitively the provisional anti-dumping duty imposed on imports of urea originating in Belarus, Bulgaria, Croatia, Estonia, Libya, Lithuania, Romania and the Ukraine
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 384/1996 of 22 December 1995 on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Community(1), and in particular Articles 8 and 9 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal submitted by the Commission after consulting the Advisory Committee,
Whereas:
A. PROCEDURE
(1) The Council, by Regulation (EC) No 92/2002(2), imposed definitive anti-dumping duties on imports of urea originating in Belarus, Bulgaria, Croatia, Estonia, Libya, Lithuania, Romania and the Ukraine, and exempted a Bulgarian exporting producer from the said duties as an undertaking had been accepted by the Commission from the company concerned.
(2) Joint Stock Company Achema, in connection with the anti-dumping proceeding concerning imports of urea originating, inter alia, in Lithuania offered an acceptable undertaking prior to the publication of the definitive findings but at a stage when it was administratively impossible to include its acceptance in the definitive Regulation.
(3) The Commission, by Decision No 2002/498/EC(3), accepted the undertaking offer by Joint Stock Company Achema. The reasons for accepting this undertaking are set out in this Decision. The Council recognises that the revisions introduced to the undertaking offer eliminate the injurious effect of dumping and seriously limit any risk of circumvention in the form of cross-compensation with other products.
(4) In view of the acceptance of the undertaking offer it is necessary to amend Regulation (EC) No 92/2002 accordingly,
Regulation (EC) No 92/2002 is hereby amended as follows:
1. In Article 1(2), the row concerning Lithuania shall be replaced by the following: ">TABLE>"
2. In Article 2(1), the table shall be replaced by the following: ">TABLE>"
This Regulation shall enter into force the day following that of 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.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 434/2008
of 20 May 2008
entering a designation in the register of protected designations of origin and protected geographical indications (Cordero de Navarra or Nafarroako Arkumea (PGI))
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 510/2006 of 20 March 2006 on the protection of geographical indications and designations of origin for agricultural products and foodstuffs (1), and in particular Article 7(5) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) In accordance with the Article 6(2) of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006, and pursuant to Article 17(2) of the same Regulation, Spain’s application to enter the designation ‘Cordero de Navarra’ or ‘Nafarroako Arkumea’ in the register was published in the Official Journal of the European Union
 (2).
(2) France has stated its opposition to this registration in accordance with Article 7(3)(c) of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006. France indicated in particular in its statement of opposition that registration of the designation ‘Cordero de Navarra’ or ‘Nafarroako Arkumea’ would prejudice the existence of products legally on the market whose registration as a protected geographical indication, i.e. ‘Agneau de lait des Pyrénées’ has been undergoing examination by the French authorities since 2000. The geographical area covered by this request for registration includes the historical region of Basse Navarre, an area also known as ‘Navarre française’ (French Navarre).
(3) By way of a letter dated 22 May 2007 the Commission invited the interested parties to hold appropriate consultations with each other.
(4) Given that no agreement was reached between Spain and France within a time frame of six months, the Commission must adopt a decision in accordance with the procedure outlined in Article 15(2) of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006. In the light of the information provided by France, the Commission cannot conclude that registration of ‘Cordero de Navarra’ or ‘Nafarroako Arkumea’ would harm the rights of producers of ‘Agneau de lait des Pyrénées’. It is impossible to tell from the statement of objection that the production of lamb in the historical area of Basse Navarre is marketed using the term ‘Navarre’.
(5) In the light of this information, the designation ‘Cordero de Navarra’ or ‘Nafarroako Arkumea’ should be registered in accordance with Article 7(4) of Regulation (EC) No 510/2006.
(6) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Protected Geographical Indications and Protected Designations of Origin,
The designation contained in the Annex to this Regulation shall be entered in the register.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following that of 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.
