Commission Regulation (EC) No 214/2004
of 6 February 2004
laying down the marketing standard for cherries
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), and in particular Article 2(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Cherries are among the products listed in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 2200/96 for which standards must be adopted. In the interest of clarity, Commission Regulation (EEC) No 899/87 of 30 March 1987 laying down quality standards for cherries(2), which has been amended several times, should be repealed and replaced by a new regulation. To that end, and in the interest of preserving transparency on the world market, account should be taken of the UN/ECE standard FFV-13 concerning marketing and quality control of cherries recommended by the Working Party on Standardisation of Perishable Produce and Quality Development of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UN/ECE).
(2) Application of these new 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 cherries falling within CN code 0809 20 shall be as set out in the Annex.
The standards 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.
Regulation (EEC) No 899/87 is repealed
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.

(89/365/EEC)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 79/117/EEC of 21 December 1978 prohibiting the placing on the market and use of plant protection products containing certain active substances (1), as last amended by Directive 87/477/EEC (2), and in particular Article 6 (3) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Directive 79/117/EEC provided for the contents of its Annex to be regularly amended to take account of the development of scientific and technical knowledge;
Whereas, by Directive 86/355/EEC (3), amending the Annex to Directive 79/117/EEC, the marketing and use of ethylene oxide as a plant protection product was prohibited, subject to certain temporary national exceptions for certain minor commodities, where special need exists, until other methods of treatment become available;
Whereas these exceptions will expire on 31 December 1989;
Whereas the Commission has reviewed the situation concerning possible satisfactory alternative methods of treatment to replace ethylene oxide; whereas it appears from this review that, at present, there is no such alternative method of treatment generally available in respect of two of these exceptions;
Whereas, accordingly, it seems necessary to postpone the expiry date of these two exceptions,
The Annex to Directive 79/117/EEC is hereby amended as follows:
In entry C 'Ethylene oxide', in the right-hand column, the final sentence is replaced by the following:
'Derogations (a), (d), and (e) shall expire on 31 December 1989 at the latest and derogations (b) and (c) on 31 December 1990 at the latest.'
Member States shall bring into force the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with this Directive not later than 31 December 1989. They shall forthwith inform the Commission thereof.

Whereas:
(1) Article 4(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1670/2006 lays down that the quantities of cereals eligible for the refund are to be the quantities placed under control and distilled, weighted by a coefficient to be fixed annually for each Member State concerned. The coefficient is to express the average ratio between the total quantities exported and the total quantities marketed of the spirit drink concerned, on the basis of the trend noted in those quantities during the number of years corresponding to the average ageing period of the spirit drink in question.
(2) According to the information provided by Ireland in respect of the period 1 January to 31 December 2008, the average ageing period for Irish whiskey in 2008 was 5 years.
(3) The coefficients for the period 1 October 2009 to 30 September 2010 should therefore be fixed accordingly.
(4) Article 10 of Protocol 3 to the Agreement on the European Economic Area excludes the grant of refunds in respect of exports to Liechtenstein, Iceland and Norway. Moreover, the Community has concluded agreements abolishing export refunds with certain third countries. Under the terms of Article 7(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1670/2006, that should be taken into account in calculating the coefficients for 2009/10.
(5) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1214/2008 of 5 December 2008 fixing the coefficients applicable to cereals exported in the form of Irish whiskey for the period 2008/2009 (3) has exhausted its effects, as it concerns the coefficients applicable for the year 2008/2009. For reasons of legal security and clarity, the abovementioned Regulation should be repealed,
For the period 1 October 2009 to 30 September 2010, the coefficients provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1670/2006 applying to cereals used in Ireland for producing Irish whiskey shall be as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
Regulation (EC) No 1214/2008 is hereby repealed.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 1 October 2009.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
