Whereas:
(1) In accordance with Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001, a world market price for unginned cotton is to be determined periodically from the price for ginned cotton recorded on the world market and by reference to the historical relationship between the price recorded for ginned cotton and that calculated for unginned cotton. That historical relationship has been established in Article 2(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001 of 2 August 2001(3). Where the world market price cannot be determined in this way, it is to be based on the most recent price determined.
(2) In accordance with Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001, the world market price for unginned cotton is to be determined in respect of a product of specific characteristics and by reference to the most favourable offers and quotations on the world market among those considered representative of the real market trend. To that end, an average is to be calculated of offers and quotations recorded on one or more European exchanges for a product delivered cif to a port in the Community and coming from the various supplier countries considered the most representative in terms of international trade. However, there is provision for adjusting the criteria for determining the world market price for ginned cotton to reflect differences justified by the quality of the product delivered and the offers and quotations concerned. Those adjustments are specified in Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001.
(3) The application of the above criteria gives the world market price for unginned cotton determined hereinafter,
The world price for unginned cotton as referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001 is hereby determined as equalling EUR 21,821/100 kg.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 December 2001.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Whereas, however, in certain cases, and more particularly when the compensating products are obtained from a large and varied number of temporarily exported goods, the use of information sheet INF-2 would give rise to complications ; whereas provision should be made for the Member States to use other control and information measures of a kind which give the same guarantee;

"Article 8a
Member States concerned with a particular trade flow may conclude specific arrangements for information and control procedures other than those based on the use of the INF-2 sheet and offering equivalent guarantees.
Member States intending to conclude such an arrangement shall notify the draft thereof in advance to the Commission, which shall inform the other Member States.
The arrangement may be implemented if, within two months from the date of receipt of such draft, the Commission has not informed the Member States concerned that there are objections to its implementation."
This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

COMMISSION DECISION
of 1 August 2008
amending Decision 2007/182/EC on a survey for chronic wasting disease in cervids
(notified under document number C(2008) 3986)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2008/661/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 999/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2001 laying down rules for the prevention, control and eradication of certain transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (1), and in particular Article 6(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EC) No 999/2001 lays down rules for the prevention, control and eradication of transmissible encephalopathies (TSEs) in animals.
(2) Chronic wasting disease is a TSE affecting cervids, which is widespread in North America but which, to date, has never been reported in the Community.
(3) Commission Decision 2007/182/EC of 19 March 2007 on a survey for chronic wasting disease in cervids (2) was adopted following an opinion published by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) recommending that a targeted surveillance of cervids should be undertaken in the Community.
(4) Decision 2007/182/EC lays down rules for a survey to detect the presence of chronic wasting disease in cervids to be carried out in accordance with certain minimum requirements. It provides that Member States are to complete their survey by no later than the end of the 2007 hunting season.
(5) Based on the preliminary annual reports that the Commission has received to date from the Member States pursuant to Decision 2007/182/EC, it appears that certain Member States have not had sufficient time to achieve their target numbers of samples as required by that Decision.
(6) In order to allow a statistically robust assessment of the survey data by the EFSA, it is necessary that the Member States concerned are allowed more time to reach the targets set out in Decision 2007/182/EC. It is therefore appropriate to prolong the date for completion of the survey by an additional one-year period.
(7) Decision 2007/182/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(8) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
Decision 2007/182/EC is amended as follows:
1. in Article 3(2) the year ‘2007’ is replaced by ‘2008’;
2. in point 2 of Annex IV the following paragraph is added:
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
