Commission Decision
of 10 September 2002
amending Decision 98/676/EC as regards fluazolat
(notified under document number C(2002) 3324)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2002/748/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 91/414/EEC of 15 July 1991 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market(1), as last amended by Commission Directive 2002/37/EC(2), and in particular Article 6(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) In accordance with Article 6(2) of Directive 91/414/EEC, the United Kingdom received on 29 September 1997 an application from Twinagro Ltd. for the inclusion of the active substance fluazolat in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC.
(2) Commission Decision 98/676/EC(3) confirmed that, on preliminary examination, the dossier was complete in the sense that it could be considered as satisfying, in principle, the data and information requirements of Annex II and Annex III to Directive 91/414/EEC.
(3) Member States were thereby given the possibility to grant provisional authorisations for plant protection products containing fluazolat, in accordance with Article 8(1) of Directive 91/414/EEC. No Member State has used this possibility.
(4) The United Kingdom, as rapporteur Member State, has indicated to the Commission that a detailed examination of the dossier revealed that several additional items of data were still required under Annexes II and III of Directive 91/414/EEC, in particular in relation to the environmental fate of the active substance and its degradation products. Accordingly, the dossier can no longer be considered to be complete.
(5) The applicant has informed the United Kingdom and the Commission of its intention not to support the ongoing evaluation any further and not to submit further data on the active substance or its degradation products. As a result, it is clear that the dossier will not be completed and that it will thus be impossible for the United Kingdom to draft an assessment report concerning fluazolat and distribute it to the Commission and other Member States. The possibility of granting provisional authorisation for fluazolat should therefore be withdrawn.
(6) No period of grace for disposal, storage, placing on the market and use of existing stocks of plant protection products containing fluazolat is necessary as no Member State has granted a provisional authorisation for this active substance.
(7) Decision 98/676/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(8) The measure provided for in this Decision is in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
In Article 1 of Decision 98/676/EC, point 4 is deleted.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

Having regard to the request submitted by the Kingdom of Spain,
Whereas in Spain the production of seed of durum wheat satisfying the requirements of Directive 66/402/EEC has been insufficient in 1990 and therefore is not adequate to meet that country's needs;
Whereas it is not possible to cover this demand satisfactorily with seed from other Member States, or from third countries, satisfying all the requirements laid down in the said Directive;
Whereas the Kingdom of Spain should therefore be authorized to permit for a period expiring on 31 March 1991, the marketing of seed of the abovementioned species subject to less stringent requirements;
Whereas, moreover, other Member States, which are able to supply Spain with such seed not satisfying the requirements of the Directive should be authorized to permit the marketing of such seed provided it is intended for Spain;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Seeds and Propagating Material for Agriculture, Horticulture and Forestry,
The Kingdom of Spain is authorized to permit, for a period expiring on 31 March 1991 the marketing in its territory of a maximum of 2 300 tonnes of seed of durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) of very early, shortstemmed varieties of the categories 'certified seed of the first generation' or 'certified seed of the second generation', which does not satisfy the requirements laid down in Annex II to Directive 66/402/EEC with regard to the minimum germination capacity, provided that the following requirements are satisfied:
(a) the germination capacity is at least 80 % of pure seed;
(b) the official label shall bear the following endorsements:
- 'minimum germination capacity 80 %',
- 'intended exclusively for Spain'.
The other Member States are hereby authorized to permit, subject to the conditions laid down in Article 1, the marketing in their territory of a maximum of 2 300 tonnes of durum wheat seed provided that it is intended exclusively for Spain. The official label shall bear the endorsements referred to in Article 1 (b).
Member States shall notify the Commission before 31 May 1991 of the quantities of seed marketed in their territory pursuant to this Decision. The Commission shall inform the other Member States thereof.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
