COMMISSION  DECISION
of 22 December 1987
making an initial allocation to Denmark of part of the resources to be charged to the 1988 budget year for the supply of food from intervention stocks to designated organizations for distribution to the most deprived persons in the Community
(88/68/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3730/87 of 10 December 1987 laying down the general rules for the supply of food from intervention stocks to designated organizations for distribution to the most deprived persons in the Community (1),
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3744/87 of 14 December 1987 laying down the detailed rules for the supply of food from intervention stocks to designated organizations for distribution to the most deprived persons in the Community (2), and in particular Article 10 thereof,
Whereas in order to implement the scheme for the supply of such food to that section of the population, to be financed from resources available in the 1988 budget year, it is necessary to allocate the resources between the Member States;
Whereas provisional statistical data concerning the needs under this action upon which the allocation between Member States may be made is now available and that final data is expected to be available only in the first part of 1988;
Whereas, on 17 December 1987, Denmark requested Commission authorization to initiate the action on its territory and indicated the quantities of produce that it wished to distribute; whereas it is desirable to initiate the scheme now in those parts of the Community where implementation may commence at an earlier date than in other parts; whereas different starting dates must not lead to discrimination between the various parts of the Community; whereas this absence of discrimination can be ensured by making an initial partial allocation; whereas Decision 87/596/EEC (3) was taken by the Commission to make an initial partial allocation of resources to France;
Whereas in accordance with the provisions of Article 1 (4) of Regulation EEC No 3744/87 the Commission has sought the advice of major organizations familiar with the problems of the most deprived persons in the Community when drawing up this Decision,
1. An initial partial allocation of the resources referred to in Article 10 of Regulation No 3744/87 shall be made as follows:
- Denmark: 100 000 ECU.
2. Subject to the limit set out in paragraph 1, the following quantities of produce may be withdrawn, from intervention, for distribution in Denmark:
- up to five tonnes of butter,
- up to 20 tonnes of beef.
3. The withdrawals referred to in paragraph 2 may be made from 21 December 1987.
Further decisions shall be taken relating to the allocation of resources for all Member States, including the granting of additional resources to Denmark, once the requirements are known.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on European Union, and in particular Article 29 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) On 1 December 2011, the Council adopted Decision 2011/782/CFSP (1).
(2) In view of the gravity of the situation in Syria, additional restrictive measures should be imposed.
(3) The purchase, import or transport of arms from Syria, as well as the provision of related financing or financial assistance, should be prohibited.
(4) In addition, flights operated by Syrian Arab Airlines should not be allowed access to the airports of Member States, without prejudice to the obligations of Member States under international law, in particular relevant international civil aviation agreements.
(5) It should be specified that the prohibition against making funds or economic resources available to Syrian Arab Airlines does not apply to acts or transactions carried out for the sole purpose of evacuating citizens of the Union and their family members from Syria.
(6) Moreover, additional persons and entities should be included in the list of persons and entities subject to restrictive measures as set out in Annex I to Decision 2011/782/CFSP. In particular, all Syrian Government Ministers should be designated in view of their collective responsibility for the violent repression against the civilian population in Syria.
(7) The restrictive measures should be maintained against former ministers of the Syrian Government since they may still be considered to be associated with the regime and its violent repression against the civilian population. The entries for those persons should therefore be amended.
(8) Furthermore, two persons and one entity should be removed from the list of persons and entities subject to the restrictive measures.
(9) Further action by the Union is needed in order to implement certain measures in this Decision.
(10) Decision 2011/782/CFSP should therefore be amended accordingly,
Decision 2011/782/CFSP is hereby amended as follows:

Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1312/2002(3) fixes the indicative quantities for system B export licences other than those sought in the context of food aid.

Applications for system B export licences for oranges submitted pursuant to Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 1312/2002, export declarations for which are accepted after 7 November 2002 and before 16 November 2002, are hereby rejected.
